When the Army needs a new general they don't interview outside the Army. Great choice city council.

Fat Guy Outdoors

That made zero sense, the Army is worldwide they bring someone in from another command. So they get fresh ideas, break complacency and to energize the command. Things must have changed a lot since you was in. I spent 22 years in the Army and never seen it

we have a huge problem with crime and shootings in columbia. i think the new police chief is part of the problem and does not bring any new ideas or expertise to the dept.

When racially disparate stops continue to go up, it's time to shake up leadership as doing more of the same just guarantees more racist practices.

With his biases, he should not be using his position to meddle in gov on his own behalf. He's looking after no one but himself.

Max DeYoung

Both of Steve's comments are true and accurate.

Steve Baumann

I totally disagree, he needs nothing and was only working to help the majority. The waste uncovered is excessive, no one can argue that.

Fred

He's an absolute nutcase. And an immigrant from South Africa, who grew up under apartheid, with no security clearance, has any business ransacking our government, accessing private data or having any influence of government departments investigating his businesses.

Steve Baumann

He's also brilliant, accomplished and worked for us, the Americans, for free.

Has anyone triedmore MAGA??? We need more MAGA!

Steve Baumann

While I understand he had limited time, I feel more time would have benefited the country. That being said, I am grateful for the time he gave and the job he did. I look forward to seeing the results in the near future.

Max DeYoung

I hope he trained the people he left behind. He did an amazing job in only 130 days.

He has uncovered so much waste and corruption in the US Government. I only wish congress acted on what he found!

Kamchatka

He was showing the truth about government waste. Only those who benefit from all the corruption are happy to see him go. What I'm sorry about is that he's become the hate toy and target of the opposition. He deserves better.
