Spot on from @maxboot.bsky.social in @postopinions.bsky.social: "It’s important to make the military a welcoming destination for recruits of all backgrounds—not just White men. ... MAGA politicization is a far bigger threat to the armed forces than 'wokeness.'" www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

How clean is the Biden admin? No political appointee of Biden's was indicted or convicted of a crime. And no cabinet officials resigned following accusations of impropriety.
That's a remarkable ethical achievement for a presidential administration.
