Former PACOM commander: Can it with the China pessimism

Wouldn't it be C+C Music Factory to ear-hustle a private discussion on US-China relations between ex-American Energy Executive now-US Secretary of State Rex W. Tillerson, fired-by-Obama former-US Director of National Intelligence/Retired-Admiral now-board member the National Committee on U.S.-China Relations Dennis C. Blair (En.wikipedia.org, n.d.), and Retired-Admiral/ex-Chairman of AEA Investors Asia now-Executive Chairman of Red Bison Advisory Group and Centurylink Telecom William (Bill) A. Owens (Red-bison.com. (n.d), who as the Joint Requirement Oversight Council (JROC) chairman constituted it as an authoritative body with decision-making authority for the joint force over objections of the individual Service Chiefs (Wilson, 2017)? Makes you wonder if somebody's got an axe to grind.

Albeit casual reading, these are things that make you go hmmm (CCMusicFactoryVEVO, 2009), especially when you're researching a management position at Kneaders Bakery and Café (Cardon Development Group, n.d.) and discover that Red Bison Advisory Group is an affiliate partner, and think it's a typo that the Army Requirement Oversight Council—instead of JROC—is revamping JCIDS (Joint Capabilities Integration and Development System) requirements for acquiring robotic mules (Magnuson, 2017).
