[Salon] retired US officers marching right into jobs with foreign govts



A list requested by Sens. Grassley and Warren show that some 450 senior officers, including 77 admirals and generals, notified the DoD between 2012 and 2022 that they want to work for foreign govts, representing MILLIONS of dollars. Only 12 were denied. They include familiar faces like Lute, Mattis, McMaster, Fallon, Clark, Alexander. What do they have to give? You guessed it -- influence and connections. Fallon actually partly owns the Global Alliance Advisors, which got $23 million in one contract from Qatar, while Fallon's direct take was $250,000. 

What a life.
