Want to find out what Liberals are really like? I mean REALLY like, their personality, attributes, concern for others’ ideas and opinions? Actually, it’s very easy and simple. Place a Trump sticker on the back of your car. I received my hat, yard sign, and bumper sticker a week or so ago. I immediately put my yard sign in place, and the sticker on the back window of my Mini Cooper. Now, I have a Purple Heart license plate inside a holder that says Retired U.S. Marine. Okay?

That very afternoon I had to run to Home Depot, 4.8 miles from my house. I’m at a traffic light,a car pulls up beside me in the right lane, and the horns toots. I look over and he shoots me the bird. Younger fellow, an obvious Millennial. I simply smile, and it appears that made him mad. Good.

There is no bottom to the depths that this woman will go to deceive the American public . Here she was at a Memorial Day Parade with a “Sailor.” I am certain the average American saw this and assumed that this “Sailor” was there to show his support for her and to show that she is likewise a supporter of the military. However, we who have served know better. This fool is not a “Sailor.” How do I know that? First of all it is illegal for a member of the military service to appear campaigning, or showing support for a candidate in uniform. Secondly,  a close look at his uniform clearly shows that his fellow failed to get any advice as to how to wear the uniform of the US Navy. His medals are simply pinned on with no attempt to place them where they belong, and the same goes for his ribbons and his qualification badge. And lastly, no “Sailor” with that many years service would ever wear his cover in that manner.

Nice try Hildabeast, shame on you.

Okay, here we go, a case just like the Hildabeast’s. Only this Marine officer did it to save lives. Anyone want to take odds that he gets crucified?

Marine’s defense for disseminating classified information will cite Hillary Clinton’s case

A Marine Corps officer who has been locked in a legal battle with his service after self-reporting that he improperly disseminated classified information will use Hillary Clinton’s email case to fight his involuntary separation from the service, his lawyer said.

Maj. Jason Brezler’s case has been tied up in federal court since he sued the service in December 2014. He became a cause celebre among some members of Congress, Marine generals and military veterans after he sent a classified message using an unclassified Yahoo email account to warn fellow Marines in southern Afghanistan about a potentially corrupt Afghan police chief. A servant of that police official killed three Marines and severely wounded a fourth 17 days later, on Aug. 10, 2012, opening fire with a Kalashnikov rifle in an insider attack.

An attorney for Brezler, Michael J. Bowe, said that he intends to cite the treatment of Clinton “as one of the many, and most egregious examples” of how severely Brezler was punished. FBI Director James B. Comey announced Tuesday that he would not recommend the U.S. government pursue federal charges against Clinton, but he rebuked her “extremely careless” use of a private, unclassified email server while serving as secretary of state. The FBI found that 110 of her emails contained classified information.

Bowe said it is impossible to reconcile President Obama’s statement that Clinton’s intentional act of setting up a secret, unsecured email server did not detract “from her excellent ability to carry out her duties” while Brezler received a “completely opposite finding… involving infinitely less sensitive and limited information.”

Brezler, a reservist who works full time for the New York City Fire Department, was not charged criminally in his case. But he was issued a potentially career-ending fitness report (What? Are you kidding me, “potentially career-ending fitness report” – that is an absolute joke! He’s dead, done, never to see LtCol) after self-reporting that he sent the classified email to Afghanistan. That prompted concern from Rep. Peter T. King (R.-N.Y.), who wrote then-Commandant Gen. James F. Amos about the case in August 2013 and asked whether it was necessary to be so harsh on someone who had warned fellow Marines of a potential threat in combat.

News of the case was first reported by the independent Marine Corps Times in October 2013. Within days, the Marine Corps moved to send Brezler to a panel known as a board of inquiry to decide whether he was fit to continue serving.

The Naval Criminal Investigative Service reviewed electronics voluntarily turned over by Brezler and determined that he had more than 100 classified documents on his personal, unclassified hard drive and thumb drive.

Supporters of Brezler have renewed the debate about his case since Comey’s announcement about Clinton. They argue that the case shows the discrepancy in how rank-and-file service members and their potential commander-in-chief are treated.

They will crucify him, string him up, take his rank, and destroy his career because he isn’t running for POTUS!

Dennis wrote an excellent article asking the critical question, “Where are our Admirals and Generals in time of need?” Well, I found one, and he is indeed a very high-ranking one, since I received his message by way of a source who is a good friend I have eliminated his name and title, but rest assured, it is accurate. So, folks here is where our Admirals and Generals are, and I apologize, but I simply could not stop myself from making some comments (in red):

Fellow Flags Officers,

After a year-long review, (by who? It was Rand Corp.) Secretary of Defense Carter announced yesterday that the Department of Defense is rescinding the ban on transgender individuals serving in the U.S. military.

That means that effective immediately, transgender individuals may serve openly, and will no longer be discharged or separated from the military solely for being transgender.  However, that does not mean that Sailors can begin transitioning tomorrow.   In other words, transgender Sailors should remain in the uniform and assigned to berthing facilities that correspond to their birth gender, as recognized by the Navy in DEERS, for now. (wonder how that’s working?) This policy change will be implemented in stages over the next 12 months – starting most immediately with addressing the needs of current service members (which ones?) and their commanders.

For those transgender service members already serving in uniform today, OSD will delegate authority to Navy and the other services the authority to approve transition plans no later than Oct. 1 (90 days after this announcement). Service members will then be able to begin the process to officially change their gender in our personnel management systems.  It will be a deliberate and methodical process that considers the individuals’ desires and medical needs, but also ensures the involvement of our commanders so that operational impacts and timing are taken into consideration, when medical considerations allow. (Yeah right, operational requirements will always take priority .. NOT!) That process is in the final stages of development, being refined by a Navy-wide working group.    We are on track to release that in advance of the 1 October OSD timeline.

Additionally, in order to serve the Fleet, we are developing training so that this change proceeds smoothly across the Navy – just like the repeal of DADT did.  Our plan is for training to be conducted by command triads via mobile training teams or DVDs with a facilitation guide if the unit is in a remote area and unable to receive face-to-face training.   There will be webinars for COs to ask questions prior to delivering training to their commands.  There will also be a DoD guide and a Commander’s Tool Kit (I’d love to see one of these.) designed to help provide resources, guidance and answer questions.  We expect those products to be available by Oct 1, and we will conduct training in a deliberate manner over the next year, except those units with currently serving transgender members will be front-loaded to ensure we do not delay their respective transition plans.  (OMG, we can’t allow that to happen).

I have attached both the OSD and Navy talking points, (in plain language, this term means propaganda) which include a bit more detail on the implementation timeline over the next year.  We also issued a release (Nine Things You Need to Know – http://navylive.dodlive.mil/?p=37142) yesterday so Sailors understand what this announcement means to them. Additionally, a call center will stand up 5 July, so if Sailors have questions, they can talk to someone.  That number will be: 1-855-628-311 (1-855-NAVY-311). Sailors will need to follow a series of prompts – or they can email: Navy311@navy.mil.

We do not anticipate this to involve large numbers of folks. (Really? That’s funny, and something I would not bet on).  As of today, we have six formal written requests from Sailors asking to shift uniforms and berthing assignments that arrived prior to yesterday’s policy announcement. We are aware of approximately 20 other cases that will likely result in requests to transition.     Various studies have projected anywhere from 400-4000 transgender service members on active duty today in all of DoD, but we just do not know at this point.  There will be more information available in the coming months as we develop our (notice whose plan?) implementation plan.

Standing by for any questions.

Admiral XXXXXXXXX
