And this is why I will take absolutely no shit at all from anyone who says they won't vote for whoever wins the Dem primary in 2028 because they don't like their position on their pet issue.

What is Zelenskyy supposed to do when his country is being invaded?

He didn't initiate the hostilities.

The ht/wt standards are more lenient than AD Marine Corps, and I assume Army as well, and these guys are still obviously outside of those regs.

Also, if anyone thinks I'm "fat-shaming" these guys, they have height/weight standards they have to adhere to, and it's obvious that none of them are within those regs, which are more lenient than active duty regulations are.

A fair amount of leftists here would be just as bad as MAGA if they were in power.

I was kid when it came out and absolutely loved it. It also had some AMAZING toys. The lightcycle could hold a Star Wars-size figure that had the moveable joints like GI Joes did. It also had the ripcord and could go *so fast*. The figures had glo-in-the-dark discs also.

So much fun.

Exactly. Not only is dealing with someone with a terrible attitude awful and draining, but they're also a huge liability, even in training environments.

I retired from the Marines in 2014. I don't remember anyone, officer or enlisted, who wanted draftees in the service at all.

Hope they don't stop. The whole "weird" thing was working great during the campaign. Was so dumb when they stopped leaning into that.

Appropriately named official in charge of the Texas National Guard troops in Chicago.
A bunch of Texas National Guard troops that could lovingly be called "Meal Team Six."

Also a former Naval intel officer who had his clearance stripped because of his role in spreading the Pizzagate conspiracy theory.

Yeah, most of the ones I served with are now also. A bit fewer on the officer side, but still way more than I would have liked, and expected in many cases.

He was probably the best CO I ever had, except I think he's a Trumper. He was my CO before Trump even came on the scene though, so I'm basing this on some comments he made during wardroom meals and the fact that several of his other officers from that deployment are now Trumpers.

I hope I'm wrong.

Hard to tell who is the worst toadie of the Trump era; him or Pence when he was VP.

Can you imagine the disaster he would have been had he scraped by the qualifications as an officer though?

The SOCOM Vice Commander is a former CO of mine. On deployment, he had us read "Black Hearts" to remind us that war crimes are bad.

I wonder what he thinks of Pete?

I'm actually worried he's a Trumper for other reasons though.
