"One of the charges against King George III in the Declaration of Independence—one of his 'long train of abuses and usurpations'—is that 'he has affected to render the military independent of and superior to civil power.'" Huh. www.thebulwark.com/p/trumps-ver...

I have never seen so many public servants protest the mismanagement of a government. Trumpists will point to this as proof of the deep state, but the reality is that these are professionals who are desperately trying to get the public to understand how bad things are.
