New POTUS. New incoming SECDEF. New officials working for the Defense Dept within the halls of Congress and White House. If you had an opportunity to tell the incoming President and SECDEF what their biggest priorities should be, what would you say?

Trust. Biden is viewed in the light shed by his time as VP. Lots of people look at him poorly because of things that happened during those 8 years where they felt the Military and National Defense as a whole were not a priority. He will need to earn that trust back.

Deterring ascendant Russia and China in all domains including cyber and space. We are playing catch up.

I’m assuming some would say all harassment others maybe cyber security. And there would be those who want to maintain our overall strength with the hope we don’t destroy our abilities. Hopefully we will get a good understanding in this first year of the plan of this administration. As for being able to address issues with this President I would not be confident in his abilities. Just my personal opinion.

What is the biggest issue facing the Biden Administration within the DoD? What should be the biggest priority?

They’re priority is wind and solar, opening the doors to illegals during a pandemic, I’d be shocked if they see Russia and especially China as a threat. Reality is much different I think, but it’s just my opinion.

Better pay for the troops, pull troops out of Germany, be wary of chinese influence in the policies the politicians make.
