Last week, the Senate Armed Services Committee held a confirmation hearing for the man President Trump has selected to be the Nation’s top military officer: Lieutenant General John Caine. This warrior’s replacement of Joe Biden’s Joint Chiefs Chairman, General C.Q. Brown, couldn’t be more welcome – or needed.

General Caine, known by his Air Force pilot’s call sign “Raizin,” was not only selected over myriad active duty four-star officers. He was also pulled out of retirement to take on this key job at a particularly fraught moment. In contrast to the previous chairman, he has focused on war-fighting, rather than promoting divisive, cultural Marxist “Woke” agendas. 

The Trump team of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and Chairman Raizin Caine promises to provide the reboot of our military we urgently need. Let us pray they have time to reestablish the practice of “peace through strength.”
