Mary - Appeasement and Dereliction of Duty across the Board
Where are the 80-font headlines on the front pages of our national newspapers? Where is the sense of urgency required to meet this critical moment? I am so heartily tired of the squeamish calculations, the too-measured attempts to normalize all of this insanity.
In the last few days, developments across cabinets, in the media, and throughout the judiciary have set off alarm bells that those with the power to warn us have chosen, as they have done for over a decade now, to ignore or downplay, even though the evidence is right in from of their eyes.
Heres what Im looking at:
National Security
On Friday, the Trump regime fired, without warning or cause, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, Charles Q. Brown Jr. The highly qualified Brown is being replaced by retired three-star Air Force General Dan Raizin Caine whose only qualification seems to be, according to The Atlantic, that he reportedly impressed the [Donald] with his swagger and bravado when they met in Iraq in 2018.
This action, along with the firing of Air Force Lt. Gen. Jennifer Short, (Chairman Brown is a Black man, and Lt. Gen Short is a woman, so DEI hires according to the Trump regime) bodes ill for the future of the military as Donald, with the significant help of those he and Senate Republicans installed, seek to bend it to do his bidding.
