Listen to this interview with a ex-CIA guy who is now a Savannah cop and has super smart things to say about how we're policing and soldiering all wrong: npr.org/2020/06/04/869…
Give this guy a Times op-ed
One of the things @SkinnerPm is how having troops/federal officers with no badges patrolling DC is super dangerous. More from us on that: motherjones.com/politics/2020/…
