Excerpt from Mikey Weinstein’s Interview:
“I think the first thing is that Trump wants to establishand this I’m sure would be completely controlled by Hegseth, Warrior Boards, former officers, retired senior officers who will decide which goal and admirals follow the MAGA agenda, the Christian Nationalist agenda, strongly enough to remain in their positions.All those who don’t will be jettisoned.”

Your passion is truly a gift to Service Members and their Families, especially in this turbulent season when our constitution and democracy are being threatened.
Thank you for always answering the phone, for listening and for giving a voice to the voiceless. MRFF helps Service Members speak truth to power when it’s needed the most. As an active duty Christian chaplain, I know that you are available anytime myself or a Service Member needs a little help discerning our next steps and our rights.
Again thank you for all you do!
