The U.S is officially withdrawing over 2,000 troops from Iraq.
CNN:
The US commander in the Middle East announced Wednesday a drawdown of US troops in Iraq from 5,200 to 3,000 in the month of September.
“This reduced footprint allows us to continue advising and assisting our Iraqi partners in rooting out the final remnants of ISIS in Iraq and ensuring its enduring defeat,” Gen. Frank McKenzie, commander of US Central Command, said.
McKenzie said the decision is due to the United States’ “confidence in the Iraqi Security Forces’ increased ability to operate independently.”
The report also says that a decision on Afghanistan is coming.
A senior administration official told reporters on Tuesday to also expect an announcement on troop withdrawal from Afghanistan in a couple days.
Now, this is big news on its own. Having President Trump begin to move troops out of Iraq is another example of him keeping his promises. This is a striking blow to the Military-industrial complex:
Over 2k Troops Being Withdrawn From Iraq
This now shows us why the anti-Trump Atlantic piece was written.
We covered the Atlantic magazines new hoax:
1/ President Trump, who never served in the military, canceled a 2018 visit to a cemetery where American troops are buried, saying: “Why should I go to that cemetery? It’s filled with losers.†https://t.co/25GkwyjjJM

4/ Why does Trump seem to disdain military service? “He has a lot of fear,†one officer with firsthand knowledge of Trump’s views said. “He doesn’t see the heroism in fighting.†https://t.co/25GkwyjjJM

This claim has been debunked by 21 people on the record:
Make it 21 statements refuting The Atlantic’s false reporting & demonstrating @realDonaldTrump’s respect for our nation’s heroes.

So, the question becomes why did this report come out? Was it really just about President Trump’s re-election?
The truth is that the reason this leak came out was because of the move President Trump just made. The Atlantic piece was nothing more than a strike back at President Trump from the Deep State. You might be thinking why is this distinction important. You might wonder why it matters because either way they are doing this to stop President Trump’s re-election.
The reason this distinction matters is because this issue is much bigger than President Trump. It does not matter who is in office this same un-elected bureaucrats will try and destroy any President who goes against them.
Thank God we have President Trump to stand up to them:
TRUMP: “I’m not saying the military’s in love with me. The soldiers are. The top people in the Pentagon probably aren’t because they want to do nothing but fight wars so all of those wonderful companies that make the bombs and make the planes and make everything else stay happy” pic.twitter.com/YYEbjRuZyb
