@Carla I know and appreciate it.
And, yes, we see it and hear it loud and clear.
And here is the “but” that you knew was coming:
Even in his first term where he had some around him that held him mostly in check (Gawd how we miss those brave folks like Gen Kelly), I was still active duty. I retired near the end of his disastrous first term. Every day I woke up wondering is this the day I must throw away almost 30 years of service because he issues some illegal order?
Fortunately, I retired at the end of 2019. Had I still been serving during January 6th, my moral compass would have demanded I resign. There would have been immediately negative irreversible consequences—not just financial but benefits had I resigned rather than retired. Still, I would have.
And I was not alone. So, so many others would have been with me.
And now, so many others are faced with that same decision.

@Carla Yes. It is.
I have previously (under the Biden administration) served as a facilitator for the Air Force recruiters for direct ascension officers in my broad field of expertise. My duties were to mentor, advise, and administer their oaths of office should they decide to join.
Last January I had to relinquish my services as I cannot facilitate recruitment for the tRUMP misadministration.
I still serve mentoring duties for two Universities as needed.
