The retired General (who has been actively political since 2006), is concerned that other retired military personnel are actively political (albeit for the opposite political party).
Ok.
Hands down, the dumbest columnist at the Post.
Not really sure why anyone would listen to this podcast. Hohmann is undeniably the inheritor of David Broder preening useless both-sider stupidity at the Post. Everything is a horserace, with smug chatterbots like Hohmann racing to show how verrrry verrry savvy they are, without actually weighing things like objective truth or outcomes.
Want a really dumb take, powered by a whole lot of false equivalence? This is the podcast for you!
What a horrible, selfish person. Having, admittedly, sending her children to school sick, she has no place in this discussion whatsoever. Many people are compromised. I almost died as well as my unborn baby because somebody felt they were too necessary to stay home when they were sick. She said she sent her kids to school sick because she didn’t want to deal with child care. This is the selfish mindset that is lead our country down this road. Did not find the show constructive in the least.
