These people are so crazy, you could be right. Soros funded and unrepentant terrorist-type Bill Ayers as one of the organizers. I hope the FBI has undercover agents, and this time they get to put him in Jail and throw away the key.

What @Project_Veritas found was so egregious, we notified counter terrorism LEOs. Release planned for MONDAY!

O'Keefe's Project Veritas has video of rioters planning to riot badly, it was something of a sting operation, I believe. His sites and twitter feed are useful to check periodically. He is a brave and intelligent man.

I wish he would do this. His entire campaign was different from every other politician. This would be icing on the cake.

We would support you, Mr. Trump! Just get sworn in privately and let those protesters in the street look absurd.

They’re pushing it. It’s like a psychotic ex-wife who unexpectedly lost their ass in the divorce. How does one deal with a woman scorned?

I love this idea except I am so looking forward to watching the swearing in and parade!

Pay no attention to them. Especially when just repeating themselves to get attention. I don’t understand why there are those who call people out for posting a story just because they didn’t know it already was. Who cares?! Just skim over the new post.

Obama is taking a Marxist’s revenge on anyone who is dedicated to protecting our country. Just look at how many senior military officers he has had sacked or downgraded, esp. from Centcom and SouthCom. He has effeminized the Navy so that it is now known as “The Queens’ Navy.

The Air Force is more interested in gender than defender.

It is no longer the U.S. Flag that flies. It is the rainbow flag of the leftist fags on government buildings, in schools, and in the streets. (I have nothing against gay people. It is the extremists among them who are doing their fellow genderists a grave disservice, but that’s how the lunatic Left acts).

The Dept. of Justice leadership is as political corrupt as any in the history of the U.S. The rot extends to most of the heads of departments and agencies from the FBI, CIA, HUD, DHS, HHS, Agriculture, Interior, esp. the EPA, Energy and even NASA.

Obama can, after 8 years of working to undermine and destroy America, proudly say, “Yes I did”!

It’s not in this article but the one I read earlier had a speculation that the new transition team may not have been aware of this automatic resignation and may just be a clerical oversight. It being a holiday weekend it may not be corrected officially until Tuesday.

Then again maybe this particular person has something in his history that warrants letting him go; even at an odd time like this.

I say give it some time then we will know for sure.

To: Be Careful

He’s a Presidential appointee. Appointed by Bush in 2008. Like all political appointee’s he submits his resignation every four years. Obama never accepted it - Trump did.

Being retired Military I think 9 years in the same position is long enough.

“The issue was confused by an early WaPo article that apparently left out some key facts. As I understand it now, the general - who serves directly under the president - submitted a pro-forma resignation, effective January 20th, 2017, because of the upcoming change in administrations. The Obama administration rejected his resignation, but it was apparently then accepted at the request of the Trump transition team.”

If this is correct, (source?) It makes total sense. IF, this is due to the Trump administration, then they would have had a transition replacement/placeholder involved in every aspect of this guy’s job for Jan 20th, ready to take over instantly.

Instead of repeating (not to you personally) this article over and over, how about some facts/sources?

“If he is appointed by the president how can the DOD fire him without the sitting president’s permission?”

At 12:01 pm Donald J. Trump will be the sitting president, not Obozo.

If the far left riots in DC, looting & burning, who stands to lose the most? DC is the Liberal’s capitol. It is populated overwhelmingly by Liberals.

If they burn it to the ground, who cares? It will be Liberal businesses, homes, & institutions that go up in smoke. Only the monuments to freedom & democracy & the Smithsonian are worth protecting. The White House is tainted by corruption & Congress is an asylum for the criminally insane.

And what better time to move DC to the center of the country - say, Podunk, Oklahoma or Kansas.

I do hope the inauguration goes on without violence & disruption, but if that is not the case, I hope law enforcement comes down hard on protesters/terrorists. And if Obama has fired the man in charge of keeping the event safe & secure, then I can think of no city better deserving of Leftist chaos than Washington, DC.

One more thing: If the Left does trash DC, then President Trump should refuse to clean up the mess, refuse to pay for any clean up, tweeting the Left that they made the mess, they can clean it up, or leave it as a monument to their depravity. Send the bill to George Soros & Barack Obama.
