[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone here have friends or relatives in the group he’s summoning? I’d love to hear their opinions of Hegseth.  [/quote]

I posted earlier. I have a neighbor who is a major general. From previous year’s conversations I know he and his family are not favorable of the Trump administration and are the opposite of MAGA, but opinions have not been shared much at all during this term. [/quote]

Your friend and his family are entirely correct to keep quiet. The MO is: you follow orders and don't opine about stuff that isn't directly in your job description... until you get an order you cannot follow. This is what a lot of lawyers at DOJ did. They did their best until the worse was asked of them, and then they quit. I have friends at State. Mum's the word until you quit. Spouses, teens, etc know to also be careful about what they say and what they post on social media. I also know a few diplomats in DC - same thing, they don't want their country to become a target of retribution. This administration has done it before, over chance remarks. Sometimes it's hard to rein in the teens.

Internally... a lot of people are fighting the good fight. But you will never hear about it unless there's a huge to-do that spills out into the open.
