OM DENNE EPISODE
Adam and Dick break down a rough stretch for military leadership and election security. The Secretary of the Army just resigned amid friction with Pete Hegseth, following the ousting of the Army Chief of Staff and roughly 80 general officers pushed out or sidelined — more than half of them women or people of color. They talk through what that institutional knowledge loss actually costs, and where AI-driven weapons systems are already outpacing the ethical debate around them. Then: the Supreme Court's ruling letting the Postal Service restrict mail-in ballot delivery in states that haven't handed over voter rolls, why that looks like a direct federal intrusion on a state-run process, and what it could mean in a state like Colorado where the vast majority of ballots go through the mail. They close with an update on CD5VC's veteran outreach training for candidates and staff, and a preview of the September 27th "Our Voice, Our Future" podcast marathon, including a segment on veteran suicide with the team behind the documentary In Country: The Battle at Home.
