The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Mark Milley, had a strong reaction when pressed on the issue of critical race theory before the House Armed Services Committee.
After facing attacks from Republicans that he called “offensive,” General Milley strongly argued in favour of the Defence Department’s efforts to better understand social injustice, both within the military and in American society at large.
The unusually emotional response from the General came after antagonistic questions from Republicans during a hearing on the 2022 budget, including from Florida Rep Michael Waltz, who, like Gen Milley, served in the Army as a Special Forces officer.

SFC Randy Hellenbrand - she certainly seems like the type, considering what she writes in her responses.

i guess one of the requirements for being a republican politician is forgetting your service to the country

Take out "Republican" and just say "politician." And you'll be pretty darn close.

The Republicans have by and large forgotten their service to their country. The Democrats have forgotten the country itself as well. The Libertarians .... As far as I can see, most of them forgot their medication refills, too.
