The entire staff of the Defense Digital Service (DDS), the Pentagon’s decade-old technology development office, is leaving by the start of May, with nearly all individuals resigning, a current member of the office confirmed to The Hill on Tuesday.

The mass exodus, first reported by Politico, means the service will effectively shutter in less than a month.

      in complete fairness. even without high technology augmenting US Military, it’s still about 500 years ahead of Russian infantry.

      the only way we would lose a war is if military leadership doesn’t coup and leaves the current regime in power.

        USA will not face a hot war with russia.

        USA is already lost in fake news and lies and due to that the people voted for dictatorship. Now the USA is an ally of russia and it is working to cement that further by cutting its bonds with the free world. USA just united with russa in UN votings. Even China and Iran did not unite with russia in that voting. US President Trump wants to be like Putin. US Americans need to face it.

        I hope that this will not happen in europe as well. Russia disinformation campaigns are working successful in Europe as well.

          Russia realized this in the 80s against the USA, so they sought to use propaganda to undermine the USa, whine worked. And conveniently found trump during that time too

            I even think russia and usa may work together more closely in the future. Just because they want the same oligarchy and yet there is no need for them to clash against each other. China on the other hand could be a real threat and rival for the USA, just because both are mighty super powers. I wonder how Canada, Europe and India will fit into this.

          Europe is fucked for the same reason America is: because they’ve completely bought into their own propaganda about being the “exceptional free world” and thus have become incapable of even acknowledging the existence of domestic structural issues, instead scapegoating all of their problems onto the corrupting influence of the foreign Other, which is an ideological path guaranteed to lead to fascism.
