When demo is healthy, there is little tension btw adhering to civilian control & serving democracy

What's a MAJ supposed to do when they watch GOFOs and COLs do nothing and say nothing about what went down with LA, the parade, Bragg, and criticism of MoH recipients?
There's no top cover, no leadership, no hard convos. Just abdication and servility from the top creating difficulties on down.

Despite what Trump and his merry band of amnesiacs may be pushing, Russian interference is real, and investigating those who informed the public about it is textbook political retribution. We ignore it at the peril of our individual liberty.

I'm on Kash Patel's 'enemies list.' Just as I expected, the retribution has begun.
New investigations of John Brennan and James Comey are just the latest examples of a troubling trend under the second Trump administration.

Exactly right. This “offer” is aimed exclusively at stringing along the simpleton at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.
Important shorthand: When Pu says the “root causes of the war” have to be fixed, he means Ukr should lose its sovereignty and submit to Ru’s political control. When he mentions “Istanbul deal” he means Ukraine should capitulate and demilitarize.
He repeated both in rejecting the ceasefire proposal.
