While ClearedHot typically spends his time on the "military aviator" website to mentor younger officers by discussing football ad nauseam, he has recently taken the time to cheer on a foreign country that murders journalists and American citizens who object to their genocide in Palestine. That genocide justified by the attacks of Hamas (which Israel propped up and financed itself) no less.
None of that matters though, because this brainiac retired full bird has a real appreciation for the middle eastern foreign country. And why wouldn't he?
Israel knowingly attacked the USS Liberty in international waters and murdered a great many American service members after all.
Israel stole enriched uranium from the United States to create nuclear weapons despite the U.S. policy of not allowing nuclear proliferation in the Middle East.
Israel has long spied on the United States (despite brutally attacking the USS Liberty).
And, of course, Israel has spent a bunch of money infiltrating our Congress, media, and other government agencies through a foreign-lobby that is strangely not required to register as a foreign agent and which has resulted in Congress funneling money from the pockets of struggling American taxpayers and sending it to the middle east to fund a nation actively hostile to the United States.
This hostile foreign country has infiltrated the government of the United States with such effectiveness that it must be wondered if the United States government isn't, in all reality, a puppet of this foreign nation. Those who look objectively must consider that the United States might be a colony of Israel. The cover up after cover up of anti-American and hostile Israeli actions suggests that our government works directly for this foreign power rather than for the people of America.
In any case, one would think a retired full bird would forgo celebrating a long-time enemy of our nation, but only if they remember a time when military officers were loyal to the United States of America instead of being captured by a foreign government.
At least ClearedHot is loyal to college football though.
This is a topic near and dear to my heart. About two decades ago as an AC-130 aircraft commander, I informed my leadership that I would refuse any requests I might get on local training missions to assist local law enforcement on manhunts with my aircraft and crew. On occasion such requests would come in, but participating in those requests violated federal law (known as the Posse Comitatus Act). Other pilots didn't have any issue participating in these law enforcement activities and I was the only to refuse them.
Almost a decade later, in a different special operations unit, I was ordered to fly a mission to assassinate an American citizen outside of a war zone who presented no imminent threat. I refused and resigned my commission. Other pilots didn't have any issue participating, I was the only individual to refuse, and the American citizen has long now been deceased.
The federal courts had an opportunity to hear a case brought by the father of one such American citizen targeted by President Obama for extra-judicial execution. The federal judiciary (federal government officials who are adept at pretending to uphold our Constitution while they actually do great damage to it) refused to even hear the case. The judiciary is adept at "procedural" reasons that allow them to ignore the most egregious constitutional violations while pretending they are not making a decision on the merits.
Unfortunately that warning was of no use and our military now stands ready to use force against American citizens in America and has since at least the events of September 11th. Our turnkey tyranny has already had its key turned as several Americans murdered by the Obama administration attest, and as a great many of J6 protestors can tell you from isolation and prison cells and as older DoD documents indicate.
On September 27th of 2024, just weeks before a presidential "election," the Pentagon issued DoD Directive 5240.01 which reiterated the claimed power to use the military's lethality against American citizens in America itself. The document is titled "DoD Intelligence And Intelligence-Related Activities and Defense Intelligence Component Assistance to Law Enforcement Agencies and Other Civil Authorities."
The document portends to have a "special emphasis" for protecting the constitutional rights of American citizens.
Likewise, the document gives a warm fuzzy when it comes to our military assets (like drones) being used to assassinate American citizens without charge or trial...
But Americans should know by now that their federal government simply re-defines words like these. Indeed, the Obama administration (which assassinated multiple American citizens without charge or trial who presented no imminent threat) denies those killings were assassinations. But they were. Calling something a "targeted killing" does not mean it's therefore not an assassination. The federal government loves to play word games like these. Regardless, sending military assets in with law enforcement against an American citizen opens up the "I feared for my life" excuse that is routinely used when law enforcement blatantly murders Americans. Even were this section written in good faith, it's a distinction without any practical difference. Military assets will show up for "confrontation" with American citizens, and Americans will die as a result.
As a great many Americans rot away in prison for protesting an election on public property, it should be no surprise that this document also allows for the use of drones and other military assets, in conjunction with law enforcement assets, to respond to "civil disturbances" (think protests) and in no way limits the use of military lethality to self defense in such a response.
Given the SWAT raids and politically motivated actions of the FBI and other federal law enforcement agencies, it is perfectly predictable that military assets will be used to provide defense of unlawful law enforcement activity launched for partisan political reasons. DoDD 5210.56 provides no meaningful restraint to military lethality against American citizens.
Most importantly, due to the Supreme Court's tyrannical invention of "qualified immunity," any military official who uses lethality against his own countrymen will face no legal accountability.
The vague language and pretended limitations of this document mean that military assets will be used against American citizens protesting or targeted by local law enforcement for any number of unstated or fabricated reasons. When American lives are taken on the homeland by their government, the Supreme Court stands perfectly ready to look the other way especially given that routine law enforcement violations of American rights will not only be bolstered by the tyrannical SCOTUS-fabricated doctrine of "qualified immunity" but also now by state secrets and so-called "national security." The military, like the police, has now been given cart blanche to murder Americans, even here in our very nation, without concern for any criminal or civil ramification.
This is all by design in the literal tyranny that the United States has long now become.
All so predictable and so obvious. And for those who think "but our military would never turn on the American people," let me assure you that they absolutely will and have. Our military officers, with allegiance to foreign governments and with absolutely no concern for our law, stand ready and eager to violate your constitutional rights with extreme prejudice. Like so many government militaries that have turned on their own people throughout history, I can guarantee you there is no difference here in the "land of the free."
We are past the end of our Grand Experiment, and we Americans can soon expect to learn firsthand what our Founders tried to protect us from. The blood of Americans will run like a river as our foreign-owned government shifts from robbing us blind through money printing and taxes and "foreign aid" and turns instead to stealing our property through violence and murdering dissenters, all done in the name of security and such. Buckle up and enjoy the train ride.
Hey dummy, a foreign government (one that blackmails American politicians, spies on our nation heavily, murders and imprisons American citizens and milks our coffers through their blackmail and terrorism) is not "our" government, therefore their hypothetical operative in Iran is not "our" guy.
Jesus Christ. How easily subverted and turned our military officers have become.
Edit:
For those who would like to contact the American embassy in Israel to voice their concern over Israel's unlawful violations of the rights of American journalist, Jeremy Loffredo, you can email them at jerusalemACS@state.gov or phone them at +011-972-2-630-4000 as I have done. You might also want to raise awareness online since this persecution of an American citizen is, of course, not covered in corporate media which is quite literally an apparatus of state propaganda. Real journalism, such as that done by Mr. Loffredo, is rare because of the unchecked liberty violations by tyrannical governments working hand in hand against the citizenry.
Dear Sir/Ma'am,
I am alarmed at the brutal actions of the government of Israel against American journalists and, most recently, with the arrest and continued detention of Jeremy Loffredo. I realize his detention boundaries have been expanded to the war zone of Israel.
I hope that the American government, and your embassy in particular, will do everything in your power to see Mr. Loffredo returned home to our country and that the foreign country ceases its unlawful actions against him.
Additionally, I hope that we can all remember we are citizens of the United States of America and not handmaidens to a brutal foreign government that wantonly violates the rights of Americans as well as its own citizens.
The narrative being pushed is that Kamala and Trump are neck and neck. That is the narrative that must be pushed in order for people to more easily accept a rigged election. It worked last time.
But the three letter agencies are ready just in case. It's clear to me that J.D. Vance (with all the political track record that Obama had and a similar pedigree) is a Deep State operative ready for the next phase.
The only question is whether Vance will take the office from Donald Trump via the 25 or the 22.
Once Vance is POTUS, America will see the mask completely removed and the tyranny will be undeniable even to mouth breathers who haven't figured it out today.
It's time people realize that the real Middle Eastern country that presents the greatest threat to the United States is the country of Israel. For the dummies, the country of Israel is not Judaism and is certainly not American Jews. See Dave Smith from Part of the Problem if you have confusion about that obvious fact.
Dan makes excellent points about how Israel controls our government. We need to end this.
Reportedly, the Secret Service has advised Donald Trump to not have anymore outdoor rallies for security reasons. The agency that was part of the J6 fraud, and which very obviously was involved with the previous assassination attempt on the ex-President, advising a presidential candidate to essentially stay home is no different than a cleaning company advising customers to not use buildings to prevent them from getting dirty. It makes no sense to do so given the very purpose of the organization and it breaks the rule "government agencies will always try to justify their existence and increased budgets." If presidential candidates stayed home on the campaign trail, we wouldn't need a Secret Service.
One might properly respond "they're not saying to stay home, they're saying stay inside!" As if the Secret Service could have the same situational awareness in a building where drones cannot fly overhead and snipers cannot be stationed on water towers to get a comprehensive view. Staying inside is no more safer for Trump than it was for Malcolm X.
And the Secret Service works for an installed President (more accurately for the oligarchy that controls him and the office of the president) who made war on Trump and his supporters with the fervency of Mussolini and not just with his demonic rhetoric. The Secret Service is part of the same apparatus that raided Trump's home over nonsense, the same government thuggery that bugged Trump's cabinet in the earliest days of his presidency, and the same cabal that is behind the weaponization of our legal system against him.
The fact the Secret Service has advised Trump to not do outdoor rallies makes it clear to me that this government intends to murder the man. They want to have a talking point, after his demise, to say "we told him and if he had followed our recommendation he would be alive, how could we be responsible since we tried to prevent it?"
The only other possible explanation is they are hoping this logical conclusion would be drawn and would lead to him changing his campaign so that when they rig the election they can blame it on that change.
Given Biden's absolute tyrannical statements, the fascism demonstrated by the leaders of the Intelligence Community lying about the Hunter Biden laptop and the Russia Hoax and all the rest, my money is that Trump will be murdered by our (no-hyperbole) tyrannical fascist government.
I have long maintained that we live in a police state and we do. We have evidence here only because the second cop (who did nothing to protect an innocent woman in her own home) had his body camera on. The murderer didn't turn his on until after he had murdered the woman and the murder is clearly seen at fourteen minutes into the video.
Why did the cop think he could get away with murder? Because they so often do. He likely thought his partner had his body camera off and if that had been the case, this would have been written up as the woman being a threat with hot water and these thugs would have gotten away with it. Count on it. Happens all the time.
This is the result of cops literally being above the law. Qualified Immunity is the doctrine invented from thin air by the Supreme Court of the United States to shield criminal cops and other government actors. If a prosecutor prosecutes a cop then QI is not a defense. But the vast vast vast majority of the time a prosecutor will not charge a cop with a crime. So the only recourse is through a civil suit and that is where QI comes in. The way it works is, even if a court finds that cops broke the law, unless there is clear case law that is nearly identical to the situation being litigated, the cop will win the suit. It's so ridiculous that if a cop were to murder a man driving a truck, and there was case law from a time a cop murdered a man driving a car, the court could find for the cop because of the difference between a truck and a car. Courts say the case law must be "on all fours" meaning it has to be nearly identical. It's an easy way for government judges to let government thugs get away with murder after prosecutors fail to do their jobs.
Prosecutors are prosecuting this particular murderous cop. And hopefully this cop gets the death penalty. But this is a reminder of how untouchable cops rightfully think they are that leads to such brazen murder. And it shows why they hate body cameras. Thankfully one of these two bad cops forgot to turn his off to cover their tyranny.
Fortunately President Trump was not killed. While I don't like the man and didn't vote for him (recognizing he was likely the best President of my lifetime given the incredibly low bar for federal officers) I don't condone violence and especially not now. Not only will it fail and hasten the demise of our nation, the people who rule our country (who are not of our nation yet own our politicians on both sides) are just itching for a reason to rip the mask off completely and unleash the tools of tyranny on the American citizenry. It's the shaping operation they need to put the United States of America into the footnotes of history. Thankfully the bullet missed and we can kick this can a little further down the road along with our economic collapse.
But what comes next so many of us are wondering. Hopefully we don't see a "right winger" real-or-created act out violently to justify a response and massive narrative shift before the elections. Given our sad state of affairs, and with the legacy of JFK's murder by our own government, such a thing would not even remotely surprise me. Let's hope that does not happen.
With all the conspiracy theories (the irrational kind, not the unprovable kind) being floated, and the overwhelming understanding that the Secret Service failed in an absolutely inexcusable manner that nobody in the business can credibly justify, I find it strange that few if any are asking if the Secret Service (which was a willing participant in the J6 fraud to create an unarmed insurrection from a protest for political aims) and which works for an installed POTUS who has made it frighteningly clear that he will use all the tools of the state against the American people and against Trump no matter the destruction of faith rational citizens have toward their armed "non-partisan" agencies....did not act out of incompetence but rather something more.
It's so easy to turn a blind eye to a known or suspected threat because the attack might be useful in some way. See the attack on Israel recently that provided a useful justification for an awful desired action by those pulling government strings.
Anyway, it's strange that NSPLYR hasn't been around to throw his voice into the Digital Clown Show. He's usually so into current events and all, I'm sure he could enlighten us.
For years now I have traveled almost exclusively on military aircraft. The downside to this is, of course, flexibility. If you have a job with a leash then it's a difficult way to travel but if you're truly retired or have a job where you can digitally clock-in, then Space A is amazing.
I'll take stretching out on the floor of a C-17 and taking a nap or the sweet top deck of a C-5 over first class on Delta any day of the week and twice on Sunday. The pax terminal may not have the little buffet of an airport lounge, but I don't have to get groped, filmed nude, and have my rights violated by TSA thugs in order to enter.
And living in the PNW with McChord AFB stocked full of sexy C-17s ready to go anywhere, anytime... it's just so convenient.
It's also nice not having doors fall off the jet in flight.
If you're thinking about whether to stay until retirement or not, don't underestimate this benefit in your calculation.
Don't know the details. Appears to be a plea deal. I'm glad he took it. Any thinking human knows he did not violate the Espionage Act nor could he. If American law applied to him (which it did not) then the First Amendment also did and he was blameless. He sacrificed so much for all freedom lovers and it's great that he is finally out of prison after the horrific torture our embarrassingly government and its allies inflicted upon him.
If humanity is lucky and free in the future, his name will be up there with the greatest movers of humanity in the face of the common tyranny of the time.
My name is Rick Rynearson. I was an Air Force command pilot & field grade officer and am now retired. I grew up an Air Force dependent (my father retired a CMSgt). I have eight deployments to OEF/OIF as a close air support attack pilot, more than one thousand combat flight hours, seven Air Medals and a Distinguished Flying Cross for valor. At 15 years into my career I resigned my commission & refused an order to assassinate an American citizen without charge or trial -- an order issued by the Obama/Biden administration; my resignation was not accepted & I was ultimately vindicated by the Air Force. I have a B.A. in religion from the Florida State University. My wife is a Harvard educated former Air Force intelligence officer turned civilian lawyer, former clerk for a Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, and Air Force Reserve JAG.
