This will be a week that students will read about. It is as consequential for the current administration as the Saturday Night Massacre was for the Nixon White House.

With the resignation of Secretary Jim Mattis, we are now at a deep crisis point. It is now clear that the world is far more dangerous. It is also transparent the United States has retreated from the world.
