His comments speak for the self.

Absolute betrayal of the President. Disgraceful.

Enough of this horsepucky “thank you for your service to this country.” Anyone who has served in the military knows that the vast majority of officers are utter fups.

He was correct almost 100 years ago now, however, he probably could not even imagine what we see now. At least back in that day there were still some good journalists, and the really bad ones were weeded out by real editors. 8>)

“Kelly defended his rocky tenure, arguing that it is best measured by what the president did not do when Kelly was at his side.”

General Kelly, I humbly tell you to go Eff yourself.

I disagree. The Demon Rat party will gripe NO MATTER what Trump does. They hate Kelly almost as much as Trump.

Anyone who has served will tell you that in the main, an officer who makes it past O-5 is probably, in all certainty a piece of shiite.

It will be interesting to see if Kelly responds/fights back.

That will tell the tale.

“Not one of you would say what you are saying to his face.”

I will. And losing his son doesn’t give him a magic shield that prevents justified analysis of him. If he told a newspaper he is most proud of what he talked Trump out of, he’s no good.
He’s gone asiatic in wanting to stay in Syria and Afghanistan, and he learned the wrong lessons from his sons death. He thinks by staying it will mean it wasn’t a waste of his life.

Id say it to his face.

“Where has journalism gone to? It began disappearing the 70s, by the mid 90s it had completely disappeared.”

A preordained fate when the CIA launched operation Mockingbird and had journalists working for them all through the industry. At this point, we essentially have a government media (deep state nwo globalist) that operates in near lockstep with the global bankers and the intel community.

I wonder... do folks think he’d give Hillary any “you can’t do that” speeches? And blow whistles if she did anyway?

Source for your assertion that Sundance supported HRC in 2008? Not being confrontational, but this is surprising to me, if true.

“These Generals are a bunch of pussies.”

during Obamatard’s tenure, he made sure to purge 150 generals who were conservative. We are left with ..lefty generals like Mattis who failed in most of his work.

What a disaster. I’m amazed at the number of insubordinate backstabbers in the Trump admin. The republican party as a whole has been disgraceful. Right when the country needed some patriots. It makes me sick.

It’s like nobody really knows that America is at the point of no return.

ALL news, to me.

Do you have any links to those claims?

Both of you make good points. I believe the separation between these warhawks and Trump is that Trump just might be directed by the Holy God almighty to save America and we have a different destiny now with Trump at the helm.. and the old guard just aint gettin’ the message.

Remember when president Trump said ‘.. we(AMERICA) have a special destiny.. and he is just a messenger’

That was real talk right there.. and shook the globalist demons out of their lairs.
