    He corrected himself a few days ago in a back and forth about iran after he called if department of defense and called it the department of war.

    Here he is 3 days ago:

    “We are not at war. We have no intention of being at war,” he told reporters. “The Department of War has made it very clear – this is a limited operation. It’s an operation that is limited in its scope and duration.”

      Oh shit, that’s why I didn’t find it. Here’s the C-SPAN clip. He says “Department of Defense” and then immediately corrects himself to “Department of War”. Jesus christ, Mikey, I really tried.

      (This was somewhat difficult to find even with the quote; please link a source if you use one in the future instead of just quoting.)
