I can tell you in Ohio, people give zero fucks about their stance on politics except for fringe right and left assholes who don’t use their device anyways. We just want a ride home man.

No because the democrats don’t have numbers to pass any legislation. They might as well be jerking off into a ceiling fan.

Haha LITERALLY! Jezebel just posted an article doing exactly that: http://theslot.jezebel.com/this-is-not-normal-1791911524

You’re right. But the gawker drones have to convince themselves that they’re doing something by putting their fingers in their ears and chanting repeatedly

Wouldn’t the evidence of protest “working” be the actual policy change (which neither happened nor does it appear to have it increased in likelihood of happening)?

The reason this mission didn’t take place under obama was the SEALs wanted to wait for a moonless night. Nothing changed since obama approved the mission.

First thought through my head: “I don’t believe Trump had any part in the planning of this. If he did, many a brick would have been shat by the prospect.”

They wanted to do it when there’s no moon. Obama held it off for the next president.

I am very curious here. Trump and the National Security Team do not plan raids. This was done by Naval Special Warfare Group with approval from CENTCOM. Anyone in the long chain from the LTjg up to the 4 star could have stopped this raid if they felt it was going sideways before they hit the ground. That the Op went…

It amazes me that the Gawkerverse is relying so heavily on Reuters...and the use of unnamed sources regarding a classified op. I can imagine the AA message was close hold. It seems bent on labeling Trump as a cowboy yet ignores what probably happened.

There’s a lot to be said about this but I’ll just say this:

It’s disgusting that militants use civilians as human shields.

Honestly I want to know how it was presented/read the transcript of the meeting. Did the military come in and say

Why people frame this as a US only issue in any respect, is beyond me. China has been found guilty of breaking international law. If a lot of the rest of the world wasn’t currently selling out to them, quite literally, that might matter.

Thank you Chief Ryan Owens. I am forever in your debt.  

Ok, so what do you suggest we do? Allow China to continue its expansion into the S. China Sea, build up military bases on these islands, asert it’s dominance in the area completely, control trade, and then let them fuck us for the next 100 years because we want everyone to play nice?

Yes I deserve that one, Now I shall go yell at a cloud.

“The old squid in me...” Moreover, a thinking one that you consult!

So we’ve gone from “a pretty clear violation of the Hatch Act” to they “seem to be in violation” of a DoD directive. And I would argue that they actually are not in violation given that there is no pending election, Trump is the President, and the action is not political or campaigning in nature but instead is showing…

“extremely disturbing”

Reaction to a single flag (wrongly placed on a military vehicle)...This is Nazi Germany....
