This Vet does, but consider the likes of Mike Flynn; I fear that too many in uniform, as well as retired Vets, employ a slippery slope of rationalizations to justify insults to the Constitution. Or, they want to safeguard their paths to lucrative defense contractor positions.

ICE has lost all credibility and must be disbanded as part of a long term effort to restore trust in US society. ICE must be replaced with a law abiding, transparent organization that follows the law with compassion for all. The name "ICE" must be retired to the list of other ignominious groups.

Yes, but the truly courageous are those who fight before they make the decision to leave public service. Tillis is a coward.

My students used to study this whacko as a textbook example of an ideological extremist. Now she is simply typical of the entire MAGA movement/cult.

Yes. He has fallen to Fox-level journalistic standards (i.e., none). It is a sad turn given how I once thought of him as a reputable journalist. So, has he become a true believer or is he just another opportunist?
