President Trump grants clemency...
From a new article on Gateway Pundit:

BREAKING: President Trump Grants Clemency to 2 Army Officers Accused of War Crimes – And Restores Navy SEAL Eddie Gallagher’s Rank!

President Trump did not let the sham impeachment slow him down and he granted clemency to two Army officers accused of war crimes — Army 1st Lt. Clint Lorance, who is currently in Leavenworth, and Green Beret, Maj. Matt Golsteyn, who will have the murder charge against him dropped.

It's an incredible act to witness, a CIC, acting against all social norms, Civ & Mil, to pardon these men.
Looking back over the decades of FW, all we see is the CIC looking to CTA and those in the command structure.

In my lifetime, they have left armies in the field, (Viet Nam), they have abandoned men and units in DA, Somalia + Benghazi, they have lied, faked concerned, etc, etc,. Relived combatant commandeers for perceived slights. Gutless, CIC in recent memory never gave a shit about the rank and file.

That said, I have no problem, regardless of individual account, of writing that shit off and moving forward.

God Bless that hard ass NY Queen Borough raised Bastard!

If you have Amazon prime there is a series on Clint Lorance called Leavenworth. Lot's of red flags surrounding that guy IMHO.

Trump also did not allow an ISIS supporting woman to return to the US despite her being a US citizen.

I am not certain the consequences this may have later on, but Ms. Muthana is definitely where she belongs...

I wonder what the Flag Officers and civilians in the DOD think about this?

Good job CINC.

Muthana is not a US citizen. She was born in the US when her parents were assigned here as diplomats from (I believe, Yemen).
