None.

14. I ncome Taxes:

I have filed all required income tax returns.

15. Judicial I deology:

As a currently serving Marine Corps officer, I believe it would be improper for me to

I have taken an oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States and
follow the orders of the President. Whether I agree with who occupies the White House,
which Party controls Congress, or what decisions are made by the Supreme Court is
irrelevant; I have sworn to uphold the laws of this country, so should refrain from public
comment.
