USMC Official Policy: You'd Better Die with A High and Tight

This episode features a round-up of a number of issues: the recent Labour party leaks in the UK, the prospect of having to support Biden as the Democratic nominee, and some amazing stories from the world of the armed services -- to include the fact that apparently the commandant of Camp Pendleton, CA ordered that all barbershops stay open. Why? Because he'd rather Marines die than have long hair. It's amazing! https://taskandpurpose.com/news/marine-corps-barber-shops-coronavirus We also talk about the situation on the USS Theodore Roosevelt and the fact that, apparently, we're willing to accept unnecessary deaths in a pandemic for no other reason than optics.
