🚨ATTENTION🚨 If you are an Xaholic you probably know that a controversy has ensued in recent days involving an article I published in American Greatness and a counter article that was published in War on the Rocks. This controversy has spun out of control, with me, my family, my former law firm, the author of the WoTR article and the CEO and staff of WoTR receiving death threats and/or numerous instances of doxxing of highly personal information and cyberstalking or harassing behavior. If you are engaged in such behavior, you are committing a crime under many state statutes. For my benefit, my family’s benefit and for the benefit of those in my private and professional circles, PLEASE STOP. For the benefit of Ryan Evans, Brad Duplessis and the staff of WoTR, PLEASE STOP. Most of all, for YOUR OWN BENEFIT (if you are someone who engaged in this reprehensible behavior), PLEASE STOP so you do not wind up in prison. If you have already done this, delete all harassing posts directed at me, my family, my former law firm, Ryan, Brad, WoTR or anybody else you may have harassed. At this point I do not care how or why this started. A deescalation is absolutely necessary. The issue of War College reform is too important to turn into a circus freak show, and both Ryan and I have pledged to move this issue forward professionally. I have asked Ryan to post a similar request on his feed.
