Ethical Dilemma
“Do not worry. I will be fine for telling the truth.” So said Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman when he testified in the impeachment trial. He should be more than fine, he should be celebrated for telling the truth when truth is in short supply. But this is the Trump era, and it’s payback time.

+ Top Navy SEAL commander to resign after apparent disagreements with Trump.
+ At embassies abroad, Trump envoys are quietly pushing out career diplomats. (Sensing a trend? All the ethical people are quitting or being forced out. All the crooks and enablers are getting bumped up.)
+ Czar-a-Lago: “Trump has an unprecedented — and largely hidden — business relationship with his own government.
