McKenzie said he wouldn't say what he recommended to Biden in confidence.

Translation: I Farted but will not admit it.

Senate: Thank you General we know you have been doing important work.

Except when they were President Trumps orders...

This is just very very fucked up shit!

Parents of Lt. Col. Stuart Scheller call for resignation of top military leaders (New York Post)

https://apple.news/A2ypNutXyQh-CP3XN3OWcYA

Lt. Col. Stuart Scheller has landed in the brig after he ripped into military leadership following the devastating suicide bombing at the Kabul airport, which killed 13 US service members and scores of Afghans.

Sounds like they don't want him talking to Congress. Also, does a military arrest and conviction stop him from holding political office??

I find it ironic that the government is willing to charge and probably prosecute him for speaking the truth while they ignored the many “crimes” that were pretty near treasonous during the war. The priorities of politics!

I find it pretty disgusting they lock up citizens peacefully protesting their government in solitary confinement without bail while simultaneously letting those accused of capital crimes back out before the ink dries.

Damn country upside down right now!

Yep…our so-called “justice” system has become full-fledged political kabuki theatre.

Rep. Mike Rogers finally asked Milley about a topic I'd questioned for awhile. Milley had said that he had a healthy portfolio of intel, including going back to being in Trump's PDB, that the Chinese were concerned we'd attack them. Milley calls his counterpart General Li out of concern for that and to dispel that notion. General Li says "thanks!" and then gets in General Lee and drives away...

My take on General Li's next move is to start the witch hunt to locate the source in his midst that gave the US their concerns that generated Milley's call and either neutralize it or play it back against us. Unfortunately the follow-up will have to be in classified session. Those types of calls may have been considered de rigeur over decades of Cold War practice but, in my view, that's the kind of insight (sources & methods) you don't give to an adversary, the very fact that you know something that he doesn't think you're capable of knowing.

Are you fuckin' kidding me?

I believe that that is their plan. Break the long line of "toxic" males joining the military and replace them with socially engineered drones to turn loose on the populace. This may be why they want to draft females (and the made up genders). That works with the police, too. Defund, depopulate, refund, repopulate with the socially engineered drones.

I just had that exact conversation with my wife this morning. I agree that that is exactly what they are doing.

I couldn’t agree more. The federal government is totally out of control, but “we” can certainly fight the local levels. At this point, that’s where I am focusing the majority of my efforts.

Easily frightened snowflakes will use it as an excuse to increase federal involvement at the local level.
