Conjecture

I now believe the US Base in Bahrain was destroyed two weeks ago and NPR got wind of this through sailors returning to the US in need of toiletries. It would explain the emergency WH meeting called today. I think Orange Turd and Kegseth have been keeping this under wraps. I also think that is why so many military brass were removed from duty this week. Today's speculation about hospitalization is a distant second.

Feel free to reply after you read the article. Also chef's kiss that this is coming from NPR.

"Iran’s retaliatory strikes have rendered many of America’s 13 military bases in the Gulf region “all but uninhabitable,” forcing U.S. military service members to work remotely from hotels and office spaces, The New York Times reported Thursday.
Within the first two weeks of the war, Iran’s attacks on U.S. military bases caused an estimated $800 million in damage …”
