This is not getting the attention it deserves [View all]

I realize that Democrats do not get the coverage in CORPORATE media that they should and that there is a lot, a lot going on right now.
The POST OFFICE going along with Trump‘s plan to decimate our Vote by mail process is huge.

Having said that, I don’t think people understand just how dangerous the decimation of quality people at the top of our military is. The firing of highly qualified, intelligent people at the top means that highly qualified people in the lower officer ranks will be deciding to not have a career in the military. That it’s just not worth it. So we are losing qualified people at all levels. The type of people we want to have in leadership positions will realize that having integrity and honor can be detrimental to their career. So we will be left with less qualified people who will not follow the constitution. I do not get the sense that people realize how dangerous this is. I do not get the sense that the Democratic leadership realizes how important it is to pound the table about this. Epstein, destruction of our voting system, destruction of our military, it’s possible to talk about all of them.
