Just to refresh everyone’s memory, this was Mullin, who never served, on Fox News March 2. He’s now claiming he went on some top-secret congressional mission that he can’t talk about where he experienced the smell of war.
Markwayne Mullin: "War is ugly. It smells bad. If anybody has ever been there and been able to smell the war and taste it, and feel it in your nostrils, it's something you'll never forget. And fortunately you have President Hegseth -- or Secretary Hegseth ... President Hegseth has been there"
