Early voting is underway in the 2024 election. CNN reports that millions of Americans have already cast their ballots either by mail or in-person.Donald Trump’s former chief of staff revealed some upsetting details of the former president’s time in office this week. John Kelly, the retired Marine general who worked for the Trump administration, said that the 45th president once remarked he needed “Hitler’s generals” during a conversation about Germany.
Frequent 1A roundup guest James Kitfield reacted to that reporting this week in Defense One. Kitfield, a longtime military reporter and senior fellow at the Center for the Study of the Presidency and Congress, notes the more than 700 former high-ranking military and national security officials who collectively endorsed Kamala Harris last month, saying former President Trump is “too impulsive and ill-informed” to lead the military.
Kitfield argues: “Roughly half of my fellow citizens have chosen to ignore those warnings, and that is certainly their right. Before they vote, however, I hope they reconsider why the nation’s guardians have chosen to break with tradition.”
And according to a judge, former New York City Mayor and Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani must give two Georgia elections workers who he defamed his New York City apartment, various watches, valuable memorabilia, and a 1980 Mercedes once owned by Lauren Bacall.
