Chapter 17 - General Sterling Makes A Definitive Stand Against Political Corruption
General Sterling walked into a congressional hearing room on Capitol Hill, carrying a briefcase filled with classified testimony.
Cameras flashed blindingly as journalists and committee members watched the legendary military hero take the witness stand.
He placed his hand on the Bible, swore the oath with a clear, resonant voice, and looked directly at the corrupt politicians.
“For forty years, I defended this nation against external enemies on foreign soil,” Sterling began, his voice echoing in the hall.
“Today, I testify against the internal enemies who weaponized our own democracy for personal greed and aristocratic privilege.”
A stunned silence fell over the congressional gallery as the general began reading names, dates, and bank account numbers aloud.
Lawmakers shifted uncomfortably in their leather chairs, realizing their own political careers were hanging by a thread.
