SIGN-OFF QUOTE[s]:
“We don’t need more confirmation that there’s something wrong with Donald Trump. Let’s instead find ways to rebuild what is rational. And the Democrats, goddamn it, get a little backbone, get a little spine. The only person I can trust anymore is Al Franken, who has a great brain and a great heart. I believe what he says.” ~ David Letterman, from “In Conversation: David Letterman”, By David Marchese (March 5, 2017)

SIGN-OFF QUOTE[s]:
“Our concern was military members showing a partisan political allegiance to a person as opposed to the Constitution or the country .They simply cannot — in uniform in military vehicles and in an official capacity — show partisan political leanings.” ~ Lt. Jacqui Maxwell, a spokeswoman for Naval Special Warfare Group 2, said in a statement to The Washington Post that punitive actions were taken but declined to comment on the precise nature of the punishment or how many individuals were affected. (from “A special warfare unit flew a Trump flag in public. Now the Navy is punishing its members.” March 1, 2017)
