Story line is started with stupid mistakes by smart people.

The special ops team gives over control of their mission to an outside mercenary group with shaky at best confirmation that "orders came from on high". Then they take orders from non US military personnel outside of the chain of command that have no real authorization granted to them or any accountability and turn over classified items and information to them again without any real confirmation.Then the squad leader follows an EVAC plan that puts all the soldiers under his command into the hands of non US military, private mercenary group.

So many inconsistencies and things going on outside of SOP and the squad leader doesn't even raise any objections. The one time he asks for confirmation on turning over classified material is so obviously skirted and left unanswered and yet it raises no warning flags.

Harrison just takes Ruby's word that she is who she claims and reveals things to her without checking out if it's true.

It all seems WAY to incredible.

I agree. When I saw the pilot episode of this I decided not to watch anymore episodes. The Australian network airing it, and other viewers, must have agreed also as it didn't air many episodes.
Apart from what the OP mentions there was the ridiculous things the "heroine" did with her cell phone.

So the US giving it's entire soul over to the 1% is smart? And Climate change is just a hoax? Mabyn Mexico can pay for that later too? Giggles and irony might accure.
