A very sad day for America, my heart sank when I heard this news. General Mattis is a true Patriot! Please pray for America, we are in chaos.
My friend John Thurman of Albuquerque, NM posted this on his Facebook page:
As a Retired Army Officer, I am sadly surprised and concerned that Generals Kelly and Mattis are leaving the White House. In my opinion, they were strong enough to say no to power and to keep a sense of restraint in a place that is chaotic
Thank you John for your service to our Country and allowing me to post your comments. I 150% agree with you.
