Oh shit! I remember the cartoons!

Pete Hegseth’s Army unit in Iraq was rocked by a war-crimes case Donald Trump’s defense secretary pick was not involved in the murder of detainees, but the formative experience influenced his advocacy for troops accused of war crimes.

I hear you, but if I tell you that National Guard Pete Hegseth was moved mid-tour in a conventional IBCT from PL to S9, do you think it was because they thought he was killing it as a PL or because they thought he could improve their situation at battalion? In THIS BCT.

I assume @pptsapper.bsky.social is the guy to ask. Has anyone studiedof determinants as to why USA officers abandoned their oaths to commit treason and join the so-called CSA? Whether they would be more or less likely if they were Mexican War veterans, gentry, slavers, border/core states, etc?

ORNG T10 Oregon National Guard Adjutant General, General Gronewold says if they are federalized, that he will advise the Title 10 commander to utilize National Guard Troops to PROTECT protesters at ICE facilities. This is the right answer.

Hold up. “CA” is inadvertently misleading. By my read, they made him the battalion S9. A non-existent staff position battalions created to help commander and staff manage reconstruction money and interface with actual CA units and civilians. A step above 2LT in the S3 awaiting a platoon.

I refuse to do this until I’m in a duty status, for liability reasons.

Missing the stammered “good morning” as he works the bullhorn.

Man who helped ignite George Floyd riots identified as white supremacist: Police A masked umbrella-wielding man helped incite riots and looting in the immediate aftermath of George Floyd's death, police said.

The very first riot after a George Floyd protest was started by a white supremacist nicknamed "Umbrella Man."

He spraypainted "free shit" on an AutoZone, broke the windows, and encouraged others to come in. abcnews.go.com/amp/US/man-h...

Glad to hear it Dolly but I’m built different.

58% of Americans - including half of Republicans - think the president should send armed troops only to face external threats, a sign of unease as President Donald Trump increasingly deploys National Guard troops to police American cities, a @reuters.com poll found.

“Stop calling us fascists, it’s violence.”

The Army Emergency Relief web page is crashing right now as the entire military grapples with the reality that they're probably not getting paid next week.

National police union calls Chicago's refusal to help ICE agents 'shocking' violation of duty Police union leaders called Chicago's alleged directive to not assist ICE agents surrounded by protesters a violation of law enforcement's duty to protect fellow officers.

The Fraternal Order of Police is on the side of MAGA and against the people they are supposed to be "policing." I think this says a lot to the people who insist local police are going to be "resistance."

FBI agents assigned to Musk concluded he was systematically avoiding conduct standards imposed on those holding high-level clearances. FBI management concluded it could do nothing about this because of Musk's ties to Trump and the GOP.

Fucking thugs.

(Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump on Wednesday called for jailing Chicago's mayor and the governor of Illinois, both Democrats, as his administration prepared to deploy military troops to the streets of the third-largest U.S. city. www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...

Once upon a time, the social media accounts of federal agencies weren't a stream of fascist, white nationalist garbage interlaced with whiny culture-war posts. Earlier this year, even!

Millennials like this saw Full Metal Jacket as kids and feel like they were cheated out of the full manhood initiation experience so they retcon their own pasts to sound more hooah.

We *do* learn how to take a punch (or even better, dodge one). It’s called the clinch drill or combatives level two. It’s training. With an objective. Led by trained instructors. In an appropriate training environment. Sounds like he just wants psychos hitting dudes to fulfill his erotic fantasies.

Great news is that there’s really good documentation in Foreign Relations of the United States and Kennedy’s papers on the internal conversations they had around creating it.

Whoopi Goldberg or Bette Middler, I bet.

The Pope coming back to Chicago to get in a tangle with ICE could only be scripted by Aaron Sorkin or @aiannucci.bsky.social, no in-between.

Pope Leo come back and dare their bitch asses to Matthew 25:40 your shit!

Oh my gosh you mean we don’t need the National Guard for ANY of this shit?

I think they should deploy Guard troops to protect wherever judges’ homes are getting arsoned. I’d at least support that.

Illinois elected officials or the Democratic Governors Association should ask if this is the US Army War College’s official position on this.
