…this week…Perhaps we are seeing the beginning of grand bargains: Russia abandons Iran and in return the US completely abandons Ukraine...and NATO

Although, when those duties likely include a line item about "maintaining good relations with the host nation and local community," mitigating a politician's gobbing off (VP, IIRC, isn't in the chain of command) and keeping a lid on your stupider troops seems worth doing.Honestly she deserved to be fired after that. As a soldier you are expected to perform your duties impartially and in a non-partisan manner. She chose to not act that way and much like MacArthur was shown the door.
Seeing if she shall be charged will be the interesting part to this.
'Going out with a bang' comes to mind. True, she could have just resigned. Perhaps she considered her responsibilities as a base commander in a foreign land compelled her to say something.Wasn’t brave it was just dumb. She should have sent her resignation in and the email up the chain about the event and why she was resigning.
I mean, “a corporal said something really stupid to the locals and now I need to do damage control” is a valid base commander problem.Although, when those duties likely include a line item about "maintaining good relations with the host nation and local community," mitigating a politician's gobbing off (VP, IIRC, isn't in the chain of command) and keeping a lid on your stupider troops seems worth doing.
White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy, and Stephen Miller:
"Yes he will, as will anyone who preaches hate for America," Miller said. "Under this country, under this administration, under President Trump, people who hate America, who threaten our citizens, who rape, who murder, and who support those who rape and murder are going to be ejected from this country."
So... Fuck 1A I guess?
Now, he didn't specify whether he meant for this to apply to ALL people in America, or just those here on some kind of status, and you could assume that since this had to deal with an immigrant that it only applies to immigrants, but given the way things are going down there, especially Trump's recent statement about going after "home grown" criminals, the could absolutely see this being something they want to apply to ALL citizens.
One step closer to fascism.
That’s some seriously scary shit. They’re at the point of talking about sending citizens to foreign prisons. As soon as they’re there, the administration would just shrug and say “they’re in sovereign foreign custody”.White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy, and Stephen Miller:

The question now becomes, what's the last straw before Republicans agree on impeachment?That’s some seriously scary shit. They’re at the point of talking about sending citizens to foreign prisons.

Obviously it would immediately be blocked by the courts- but do they get a few planes in the air first? Or do they simply ignore the courts?
The Trump regime is quick-marching into autocracy, and starting to give totalitarianism some suggestive sideways glances.

The liberal coast, nah.Nuking California .....maybe ?.... possibly
How about when Trump says he has found religion and that he’s been a terrible person and is nowThe question now becomes, what's the last straw before Republicans agree on impeachment?
Waiting for someone to leak his real medical file proving he didn't have bone spursHow about when Trump says he has found religion and that he’s been a terrible person and is now
resolved to do good for his fellow man?
Most of them won’t do shit. They sold their values out for Trump years ago, well before the election. There aren’t enough congressional republicans remaining with a spine to stop him.The question now becomes, what's the last straw before Republicans agree on impeachment?
That ‘medical report’ was hilarious. Wild that his doctor will straight up lie on basic stats and vitals. They’re pretending he has the height/weight/BP of an athlete in his 20s. It’s preposterous.Waiting for someone to leak his real medical file proving he didn't have bone spurs

A lot more than you probably imagine. If a few moderate Republicans with spines legitimately tried going against him, they'd be called RINOs, branded as traitors, accused of spreading "hate" for America, and deported to El Salvador. The rest would fall in line real quick.The question now becomes, what's the last straw before Republicans agree on impeachment?
They would probably eat him.He'd fit right in in Russia or North Korea.
