To the editor: Lt. Gen. Jeffrey Kruse fired by Protection Secretary Pete Hegseth — simply one other story in regards to the Trump administration’s marketing campaign to make issues proper and proper with our army, proper (“Hegseth fires common whose company’s intel report on strikes in Iran angered Trump,” Aug. 23)?
Mistaken. It’s a large deal as a result of it’s a purge that seemingly has no finish. From February of this 12 months as much as the current, from Adm. Lisa Franchetti to Kruse, the Trump regime has been aggressively firing high army officers. This consists of, notably, Air Power Gen. CQ Brown Jr., who had 40 years of service. The administration has tossed numerous a long time’ price of service and experience into the trash bin, all primarily based on manufactured excuses.
So one has to marvel — are we actually safer right now with President Trump, Vice President JD Vance, Home Speaker Mike Johnson and Hegseth on the helm?

To the editor: I can not consider a higher hazard to our nation’s protection than a wannabe-warrior president and his sycophants, who hearth high generals and admirals — individuals who have labored their approach as much as critically necessary posts requiring intelligence and expertise — with a view to substitute them with officers who will really feel they have to please each whim of this erratic and poorly knowledgeable commander in chief.

To the editor: In Trump’s cartoonish presidency, Hegseth firing Kruse is like Mickey Mouse firing Walt Disney.
