Why the Pentagon’s New Name Matters

President Donald Trump has signed an executive order authorizing the Department of Defense to use the Department of War as a secondary title. The update was made official during a White House event, where Trump said he was bringing back the original name of the department. And the action is raising questions over whether this is just a name change or a signal of something else. Alongside this, Trump posted two images that appear to be a veiled threat to Russia. This happens as the president says he’s losing patience with Russian President Vladimir Putin. And also, in other news, a young woman who was stabbed to death on a train in Charlotte, North Carolina, is sparking outrage over what some call light-on-crime policies and an alleged double standard in reporting by the corporate media. We’ll discuss these topics, and others, in this episode of Crossroads. Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and guests, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.
