Letter to the editor: Where is common sense?

Our “woke” military leaders consider “white supremacy” and “climate change” the biggest threats to our country today. Our real enemies watch and smile. Russia has invaded Ukraine and China flies fighter jets over Taiwan.

Weakness and stupidity invites tyranny.

Political correctness is destroying us from within by placing undeserving people in prominent positions based on race or gender, not qualifications. We as Americans all suffer under this unjust policy.

Best qualified should be the standard for any position, regardless of race, creed or color. For a Republic to thrive, citizens are best served by excellence, not equity.

Unsafe streets, emboldened criminals, and homeless encampments with rampant drug abuse liken many of our cities to Third World countries.

Our current administration’s policy of open borders and allowing the drug cartels to employ their mules only furthers this decline.

When will common sense return?

Only when “we the people” have had enough, and force it through the ballot box.

As Ben Franklin supposedly stated, “We have a Republic, if we can keep it.”

Vote accordingly, and may God continue to bless the USA!
