My Dear Friend & POTUS, DJT,
I told my neighbors that you’d like to go down in history as a peacemaker. I have that right, don’t I? Your call with VVP today is about that & your conversations with Bibi have been about that, too.
Over the past 8.2 years, I have made the inference that you are war averse. I remember back in April, 2017, when Bashar al-Assad bombed Khan Sheikhun with sarin gas, you were appalled & said, “When you kill innocent children, innocent babies, babies, little babies, with a chemical gas that is so lethal… that crosses many, many lines, beyond a red line, many, many lines.” More recently you lamented the wasted lives of beautiful young men in Ukraine. I believe deep in your gut you know WINTA!
Given your commitment to ending war, imagine my surprise when I heard your employees stormed the US Institute of Peace & kicked out the staff. It seems they misunderstood your directions. Moreover, that particular organization is not part of your administration, so technically, your employees have no authority there.
I’m afraid your employees are having difficulties interpreting your mandates & making some embarrassing moves. They are getting headlines for taking down revered web pages such as those that about Native Americans code talkers who helped US send messages in world wars. The military is eschewing opportunities to recruit Black engineers by canceling their participation in the Black Engineer of the Year Awards event. I’m sure you did not want those things to happen.
I encourage you to slow down so you can give clearer directions in your effort to down-size & keep in mind that it’s easier to break things than to fix them. You can’t get anything accomplished if you no longer have anyone working for you.
As you are at it, please restore Radio Free Asia. XJ is loving the silence because it allows him to get away with things. Please recall that Americans cherish freedom of speech & want to hear the scoop from every corner of the world, especially places like China & Burma!
BYBS,
