they let people like lauren boebert, and marjorie taylor greene serve in congress, how could you possibly trust an institution that let's obvious racist fascist ignorant loons like that, who know literally nothing about anything , over seasoned pentagon military professionals? i don't. this is fine with me.

You think the pentagon doesn’t have an agenda? It needs oversight by civilians. Those are the worst members of congress sure, but generally their votes are diluted at least.

An unchecked military goes to some truly terrible places. Including the U.S. one.
