Neither Trump NOR General Mattis Was In Situation Room F/Yemen

DU'er deminks pulled up the news piece that said Mattis wasn't in the Situation Room for the disastrous Yemen raid either.

Democrats need to make inquiries.

Something isn't right.

4. Mattis was at the Alfalfa Club. He had to leave.

(snip)

Defense Secretary James Mattis had to leave one of Washington's biggest annual social events, the Alfalfa Club Dinner, to deal with the repercussions, according to the official. He did not return.

(end snip)

So he wasn't in the Situation Room either, at least for all of it.
