The Broken Soldier

Today I had a good discussion with Sheila Marolla. She’s a staffer for US Senator Carl Levin. Her advocacy has been helpful, but it’s about to become even more helpful. Upon learning the folks at MING HQ, including the AG of the MING, lied to her again in informal inquiries, we’re moving to full formal inquiries. These folks have put themselves in it. They will now have to account for their false statements, and if they are unable to do so in a meaningful way there will be consequences for them. This is something to which I’m sure they aren’t accustomed. But a reasonable person recognizes when a system that has simultaneously harmed so many and insulated them from having to answer for their actions and inactions is falling down around them. One would think even an unreasonable, even stupid person could act prudently. But this isn’t the case with the folks at MING HQ. They’re convinced allowing this miscarriage of justice to continue will have no affect on them. It hasn’t so far. My wife, family, friends, and I have suffered because of this. But that doesn’t affect them. Why should it? I’m under their heel. A pawn. And kings, bishops, and knights shed no tears at the suffering of a pawn or his associates. They’re in for a very rude awakening. Pawn promoted (with the help of a US Senator), check mate!
