I suspect that a big reason Stephen Miller has turned immigration into a losing issue for Donald Trump is because Miller's goons create an endless supply of negative spectacle that goes viral and seed...

Gonna level with you. I'm not really sure it's a civ-mil problem so much as a "one party views their political opponents as enemies to be cowed into submission through the threat of force" problem. It's sort of a different lane tbh.

Gosh, turns out the things repeatedly cited for "RFK Jr makes some good points" were all bullshit, he's not doing squat about pesticides nor ultraprocessed foods, nor will he make fresh food more accessible and affordable.

It’s a small world. Just bumped into someone on our cruise I recognized from X but is more active on this app now. I walked up and showed him his profile and said, “recognize this guy.”

Critical element for success.
We have decent doctrine and we have H2F cadre to assist with program design, injury rehab, and identifying other needs. It would be great if leaders leveraged this info and these resources instead of doing the same BS that Army units have wasted their time with since the last millennium.

Understand Trump’s pathology. The core of every narcissist is deep feeling of inadequacy. His most humiliating experience was being made fun of by Obama at the WH Correspondent’s dinner. It’s all about proving to himself that he’s better than Obama.
