Lockheed Martin Senior VP Resigns Due to Political Pressure

Lockheed Martin's Senior Vice President of Government Affairs Shelly O'Neill Stoneman is under fire from the Trump transition and House Armed Services Committee after Republicans exposed her political opinions as woke and incompatible with the incoming Trump administration. Stoneman, a former Obama administration aide, offered strong political commentary for years on her X account. She apparently deleted the account on Friday after Breitbart News requested comment. She resigned under pressure.

Breitbart is gleeful at a contractor folding to political pressure to get rid of someone for their political speech.

Hey jeff, THIS is the form of suppression of free speech that is here and is coming. Not your nonsense.

I was not able to link to the breitbart article, but the facts are pretty straightforward.

Of course, they're going to fire her. They want in on the 1984 level "government efficiency" we're all about to experience.
