Okay, since Trump and Bolton are fighting each other over where and when we go to war, I was a tad disturbed that the Pentagon had not held a daily press briefing in a full year.  Yep, May 18th of 2018 was the last Pentagon daily press briefing.

So, yesterday they finally held a daily press briefing, which is now the yearly press briefing.  And to show their respect for the press and the American people, they went all out.

As the frontman of KISS, Gene Simmons occupies rarefied air — a rock star who entertains arenas filled with adoring fans. On Thursday, Simmons joined another exclusive club, conducting only the second on-camera press briefing at the Department of Defense in the last year.

To uphold the proper seriousness of the event, Simmons did not wear his usual make-up.  However, I don’t see how that would have made a difference.

And this is where we’re at.

Thanks to P.P. for the heads up.
