Rep. Mike Rogers (R-AL), the chair of the House Armed Services Committee, put the Pentagon on blast on Wednesday following a classified briefing on Iran. Politico’s Connor O’Brien reported on Rogers’s frustrations, which included not getting clear information about the ongoing conflict, including the potential deployment of ground troops onto Iranian territory.
“We want to know more about what’s going on, what the options are, and why they’re being considered,” Rogers said. “We’re just not getting enough answers.”. “This is not just about Epic Fury” he continued, adding, “This is a consistent pattern of tagging the base and saying ‘We came over and briefed you.’ But they’re not telling us things.”
O’Brien noted that Rogers was not the only top Republican frustrated with the Pentagon on Wednesday. Senate Armed Services Chair Roger Wicker (R-MS) reacted to Rogers’s comments, saying, “Let me put it this way: I can see why he might have said that. I haven’t heard his comment, and I don’t know the context. But I can see why he might have said that.”
“We just wanted them to tell us what’s the plan, and we didn’t get any answers,” Wicker added. “I understand they can’t give us, they shouldn’t give us, specific operational details. But generally, we should be able to get more texture than we’re receiving from them.”

There is no "plan". Just concepts of a blueprint for the draft of a plan.
