Monday Morning Calls

Matt Gagnon discusses a video by Democratic politicians urging military disobedience of what they claim are illegal orders from the Trump administration. Alyssa Slotkin, a former CIA member, is asked to clarify but denies knowledge of any illegal orders, instead mentioning legal gymnastics related to Caribbean strikes and Venezuela. Tom, a caller, shares his observations on the nature of small businesses and the humility of genuine people versus those who insistently promote their credentials. Matt Gagnon agrees, noting that insecure individuals often feel the need to assert their importance, while truly accomplished individuals do not.
