Today's Opinions
 
Tuesday, June 29
Gen. Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, testifies on Capitol Hill on June 23, 2021.
Do you think political attacks on the military hurt us?
Good morning. Today promises to be a busy one and we have all the columns you will want to read.

Can you believe it's only Tuesday? Well, let's see if we can speed things along with a good, opinionated newsletter. 

We hope you have a great day. Here's we go. 

Attacks the US military helps our enemies

Rep. Chrissy Houlahan, a Democrat from Pennsylvania's 6th Congressional District, writes about a rash of attacks on the U.S. military that have come from the Republican side of things. 

"In just the past two weeks, here's what we've heard from leading conservative and Republican voices: Fox News host Tucker Carlson called Gen. Milley a "pig" who is "stupid." Rep. Matt Gaetz of Florida openly mocked the sacrifices our armed forces have made in past conflicts. Rep. Madison Cawthorn of North Carolina suggested America looks to the Viet Cong for inspiration. And Fox News host Laura Ingraham even floated defunding the military.

Those people may think they're making innocuous comments, however hurtful, but Gen. Milley, Secretary Austin and I know better, and so does anyone who has worn a uniform."

Can infrastructure investment protect buildings?

Jill Lawrence, the commentary editor for USA TODAY, writes on the importance of investing in infrastructure with a bipartisan plan

"A major investment in infrastructure has been the supposed holy grail all across the political spectrum for more than a decade. Somehow, between arguments over how to pay for it and interruptions like the COVID-19 pandemic, we have never done what is necessary to be or even act like the First World country we are certain we are."
