There is an FBI whistleblower testifying to congress that the DOJ has been taking action to limit and protect the son of the President, but you’re happy so I guess he’s wrong. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The fact you can look at those charges and refer to that as “not protection” shows how in the bag you are for “it’s ok and I’ll pretend I didn’t see it when my party does it.” Again, between this or Clinton deliberately destroying her server hardware to deny investigation immediate access and somehow that isn’t obstruction… Right bro. Totally on the level. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Go buy a gun illegally and not pay millions in taxes and see how many misdemeanors and dropped charges you get? He pled guilty to basically nothing. The gun charge doesn’t require a plea, and under the diversion now he can’t be charged with anything pertinent to the case because that would be double jeopardy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Given some of the issues in shipping out their current agricultural output, it won’t matter much. The Sea Lanes are effectively closed and those agreements to let their stuff pass fell apart. The countries all sharing land borders won’t let the Uke’s sell into their local markets because of the devaluation it is doing to their crops by ballooning the available supply.

But NSPlayer said we can just charge the political class with crimes whenever it’s appropriate. After all you guys are only holding Trump to a standard right? Granted it’s not a standers you’ll hold your own side too, but that doesn’t matter right? What matters is you win the next election, and that’s all this is really about.

“All you’ve gotta do to hold people accountable is take power.” Gee is that it. Well shit let’s just get right on it. Thanks you for admitting what most in the Democratic Party won’t, that they simply will not and cannot allow accountability of any of their sacred cows and will only promise compliance when they aren’t in power. Hey guys you hear that, it’s not that there isn’t a blatant protection scheme being run by the party in power to bury its skeletons in a bolt locked closet, it’s just following the rules for accountability. You can only be accountable when the opposite power is in charge. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well since it will start and stop with Trump, your proclamation this is any sort of solution to political protection is pretty hollow. The FBI was caught investigating Hunter’s 4733 violation 5 years ago. The IRS has been found doing the same. Weird how it takes so math years to figure out saying no on a yes no question about drugs was or wasn’t a lie The fact you and others repeatedly find a way to deny Hillary or Hunter or any number of other illegal acts don’t meet the criteria for prosecution is pretty well proof of that. I didn’t vote for Trump either of the times he ran, but the way you and others are enthusiastic in applauding this blatant attempt to deny him even the process of participating is pretty bold. And again, when Trumps populist movement holds to the opinion about elitist protection schemes and how the Democratic Party protects it’s self from legal prosecution it’s pretty bold of you and others to go applauding it and telling all the rest of us the charges against him are somehow unique and we are the ones that don’t understand. To the laymen you look like you’re cheerleading for the exact partisan protection and political bias you claim to be stamping out. I’ll remind you, the same week this indictment was announced, the FBI director was almost held in contempt of Congress for refusing to even answer questions about the investigation into the presidents son…. Yeah that’s some transparency. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

You are completely clueless or just ignorantly blind if you think some local or state level prosecutor can just go ahead and charge the sitting president’s son. Like it’s not even hard, the guy bought and then threw a gun in a dumpster having already had a felony. He would never survive a form 4733, which lying on is a felony. So what happens now? So tell us why other than the fact you would be charging a presidents son would that crime be ignored. It’s not like gun violence and violation of firearms laws isn’t a huge concern of your party. Yes it’s severely concerning that we have for a decade now excused what we all knew to be true, that Hillary was guilty of at the very least crimes which would prohibit her participation in the political class of our country, yet somehow that’s just excuses or in some cases denied. But oh, charging Trump (when he’s the political candidate the party in power is most afraid of) is somehow our solution to decades of bad faith actions and political protection. Proclaim from the chief executive, “From this day forward we will do what we should have for the last several decades…..” No if you’re going to win, and more importantly beat Trump’s populist movement, you need to do it on the up and up. This sideways attempt at just denying him the ability to participate in the political process is being rightly called out for what it is, a shady attempt to sideways secure victory by using the weight of the executive office.

No you don’t get to pretend it’s no big deal we didn’t charge Hillary and just call it my bad here… If you are the executive branch right now you are making the claim the justice department and the FBI are beyond the partisanship, yet your criminally offending son is somehow never facing any charges when just off simple handgun possession he has committed a felony. Your party’s previous front runner was excused. But now you just have to follow the letter of the law and charge your single biggest political rival with a felony only months after we found classified documents in your F’ing garage. They hid behind prosecutorial discretion and invented ideas of intent. Sorry, but this isn’t a “just because the let Hillary” for you. I’d happily watch Trump go to jail, provided the same government officials currently screaming about what he did were being charged right along side him. Until that comes, yeah I’d rather we not go jailing political rivals for crimes we know the other side committed. At least it would let the democratic process play out. Right now everything the screamers like Jim Jordan are saying about the weaponization of the justice department is actively happening. But hey we ignored it when the IRS was doing it, so why not let this game go on as well. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

The time that Hillary would have most appropriately been charged having finished the investigation was… that’s right… in the middle of her being the front runner for the Democratic Party in the 16 election. Somehow that wasn’t allowed to happen. So no suddenly deciding to act appropriately now while simultaneously claiming this has nothing to do with partisan manipulation of the justice department just isn’t going to work here. Your in a spectrum of political demographic that keep screaming about Trump apologists or whatever label, but at the end of the day they are right. An unusual action is being applied to their preferred candidate. Notice I said unusual, not unethical or illegal or whatever, because the precedence for protection and ignoring crimes has already been set for the political class. Trump isn’t being charged because he did something uniquely wrong. He is being charged because he so brazenly and openly made the public aware of the shady crap we ignored for decades from our political caste. They are doing their best to destroy him not because they didn’t do the same, but because they are afraid of the attention to their normal actions that is now impossible to ignore.

Yeah and again…. Thats Reuters. But we somehow can’t find “intent.” No reasonable person could understand that pulling classified markings of geospatial intelligence wasn’t an illegal action or whatever reason. We are saying the governmental agencies found a way to protect her and you’re quoting the same government agencies like it’s some sort of proof it was all on the up and up. Also intent was never part of the US Code she violated and could be charged under. And you’ve completely avoided the deliberate destruction of her server entirely. Weird how that’s not just assumed as obstruction. Again, the level of “oh she couldn’t possibly have been charged,” you and others seem to want to find a way to is just astounding. At the very least all of her staff flunkies at the time should have had their clearances pulled, and if you’d gotten on JPAS at the time you’d have seen that didn’t happen. Meanwhile over at USSOAC…. We’re crushing some E 4 for plugging a purple cable into a green printer. They could have thrown some weak toothless attempt at her and lost in court at least making the attempt at appearing to be an application of the justice system, but no, she never even faced indictment much less had to actually defend her actions in court.

Again, you are either willfully or just ignorantly trying to give her a pass. You assumingely (by being on this site) know personally of instances of persons being crucified, livelihoods lost, careers ended, because of stuff far more benign and innocent than anything Hillary did. We threw guys to the wolves in SOCOM for far less. Yet you spent god knows what time on Reddit or wherever digging up a wall of reasons why it’s ok she didn’t face any repercussions for intentionally setting up an illegal server in her house that classified material just happens to make it onto. And then you excuse her actions quoting a guy saying “well if you charged her all these other people would have to be charged.” Yeah bro, a whole lot of people would be fine with Trumps indictment had a whole lot of other people ever been charged. Instead this is absolutely standing as proof that if you are connected and protected or not, your actions carry different consequences. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

If you want to know why a whole lot of people are calling out this action as dubious given the political protection granted to Clinton, it’s probably got something to do with this almost forceful way that people dismiss Clinton and her actions from discussion. https://www.politico.com/story/2016/01/hillary-clinton-email-server-top-secret-217985 Absolutely nobody paying attention at the time could see what Clinton was ignorant of what was found on the 2/3 of her server that were actually investigated (because a lot was destroyed intentionally before it was turned over). But nah… totally on the up and up there. Nothing to see… in fact we can’t even remember it happened…. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Right… it’s the over abundance of educated people in high earning jobs that somehow pushed the thumb down on the scale. It’s not the mass appeal of populist stupidity that keeps people like (for example) Jayapal in Seattle or Sheila Jackson Lee elected to their positions. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

How many Air Assaults did you fly? I’m just curious if your pax list looked different than mine, because while what you’re describing it as looked accurate early, it damn sure didn’t match what was in my aircraft during the later years of the war. But yeah, you got it all figured out. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

It does, and honestly it would more mirror the Russian force structure. Even still, as the systems go from big theatre stuff to divisional/regimental footprints the parent you live with is gonna change. Little known fact though, SA-22 isn’t an Army system, but look at where it is currently nested in Ukraine trying to plug holes and shore up the regular aligned Army ADs.

You want to own a supporting formation within an Army maneuver formation? One that has to get its organic maintenance and sustainability from the wider formation of Army it lives with? I’m not saying it can’t be done, but I can give you a guess how your representation and treatment at the big table in Division when you literally exist to be apportioned out to BCTs as needed and now you aren’t even in an Army uniform. THAAD could probably be passed off pretty easily, but everything below that is too entrenched into maneuver formations. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It’s only getting worse… LSCO has fundamentally shifted the application but the mindset or “oh everything below X altitude is just mine,” has been hard solidified in two decades of COIN “Doctrine.” And in the next couple years we’re looking to greatly increase our SHORAD and protection at the Division level. So having just done the Suwalki gap warfighter I’d say you’re best bet to fit through that 80 mile corridor of airspace nightmare…. Is to not and just come down from Norway or something.

Honestly given Patriot’s track record, I’d say that has more to do with the lack of active ground based air defense in the US. You guys realize you are relying on an Army element of the TAGS/AAGS architecture to not only have the right mode 4/5 comsec, but also to have the smartest people you’d expect over there. There is a good reason we are planing our routes to avoid friendly concentrations of forces. Hint: Air Defense doesn’t require near the asvab score you would expect it does. And one of the dumbest warrants I’ve ever worked with was an AD branch guy. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

If you’re going with that “short” a distance, I’d go with either a combination standard red dot and magnifier, or leaning more toward not going in houses just a standard 4x optic. I’m a big fan of Aimpoint and magnifier combos. Little heavier but does either job well, just practice transitioning. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The only place it’s really “common” is in ARSOA. Even then it’s really weird that the battalion XO is suddenly in your pilots office and now you call him Sam. Other place is seeing guys asses to guard positions so they become a warrant when they cross over having been and active duty captain or whatever. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That isn’t exactly true… there is a process to it but it’s ridiculously weird and complex. Oh also we routinely see months long gaps in getting paid for our RLOs that revert to Warrant. One in my office was literally getting 0.00 LESs for 6 months before the issue was resolved. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’d just like to point out literally none of those masks is anything but a cloth napkin…. The president isn’t wearing an N95 compliant mask… neither is the 2nd in line in our chain of succession. So besides optics what the F was the point. It’s like they literally think we are too stupid to notice them not obeying the made up rules. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
