Answer that by asking (and answering) this: Is the United States Constitution being followed?

“Is this going to lead to ‘Double Jeopardy’ anyway?”

Naa, we have ways to work around these ‘bumps in the road’.

There have been a couple of threads today by Victor Davis Hanson about the “Sovietization” of America.

Some people have quibbled about the “Soviet” part. Is is more China? What? But, yeah, we’ve seen this movie already. We are in a totalitarian regime and it’s ugly.

investigate him all you want, unless something has changed, you can’t be tried twice for the same thing.

Re-trying would be double jeapordy. Not allowed. But then the democrats don’t care about the Constitution.

Kind of backfired on Beria eventually.

What the hell is with all these special operators talking to the media? The more you talk the more you leak.

STFU, kids.

Exactly - so much for the myth of the ‘Silent Service’.

Some folks just don’t know when to shut up.

No, because that would mean that the Constitution means something anymore. It does not. If he in fact said what is claimed he's a dumb ass.

In Eddie Gallagher’s defense, he’s got major legal bills to pay, he’s got got a few endorsement deals and has written a book on the entire situation....

Plus he feels after 20 years and 8 combat tours with significant accomplishments along the way, he deserves better....

Is it smart, perhaps not, but he’s obviously an old school warrior and it’s hard for him to adjust to not fighting for everything including his record in the military...

According to him in a recent podcast, one of his accusers is still a Navy Seal and is teaching a class in ethics and using Eddie Gallagher as an example of what not to do while serving as a Navy Seal....

I don’t give a chit if they did kill the guy on purpose. I thought that was the plan. Kill ISIS.

Here’s what this is about. The SEALs are loyal to Trump and are guarding him and escorting him all over the place to government meetings. Now that loser Austin who I don’t think is even allowed in the Pentagon is trying for some payback.
