Dear Mikey Weinstein, and all at MRFF,
We are writing to let you all know that this year we are doubling our customary end-of-year donation! Given the current, increasingly existential threats to our traditionally non-partisan and secular military, we strongly believe now more than ever that such action is more than warranted.
With the imminent Trump 2.0 presidency, we are now facing such blatantly outrageous prospects not only for Department of Defense leadership, but also so many patently unconstitutional proposed policies as mandated by Project 2025!
In our view, one of the most reprehensible and problematic of those intended policies is a politically-driven “military review board” plainly intended to purge higher-level officers who do not toe the line with Christian Nationalism and who are not explicitly loyal to the future president, rather than to the U.S. Constitution and the non-partisan democratic principles it represents. Disgraceful.
So much for an apolitical military and the separation of church and state! When we both took our solemn oaths to the Constitution and gave up years of our lives to our respective branches of service, we did not do so in defense of any of this insulting nonsense.
As an aside, we find a DoD Secretary Pete Hegseth so abjectly repulsive and manifestly unsuitable in terms of both fitness and qualifications that among our friends we have taken to calling him “Hogsbreath”—a term that better suits the reality of the man his own mother so aptly described in her notorious takedown of him and his behavior. Such an insulting nomination to say the least.
Mikey, you and your staff at MRFF devotedly remain the reliable and worthy rock that our steadfast resistance to these Trump-led antidemocratic threats rests on. Members of our uniformed services who fear that their freedom of religion and conscience is at stake, should unquestionably know that they can absolutely count on MRFF at any time to step in and advocate on their behalf!
For that highly commendable reason we extend our very best wishes to all at MRFF for perseverance, continued successes and good health in 2025 – notwithstanding all the very challenging and dire uncertainties that await us all!
Keep on carrying on! Boy, does it matter, and we know – as ever! – that MRFF is up to the task!!
