(Satire) Marine Corps. Rebukes Pelosi: “WE DON’T WORK FOR YOU!”
Real Raw News ^ | January 13, 2021 | Staff

Posted on 01/14/2021 7:21:19 AM PST by Candor7

General David H. Berger, Commandant of the United States Marine Corps., refused House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s request to use the Corps. to safeguard Biden’s Jan. 20 inauguration from Trump supporters and insurrectionists.

A Pentagon source speaking under promise of anonymity told Real Raw News that Pelosicontacted Gen. Berger late Monday night, and she beseeched him to commit 5,000 troops to help ensure a peaceful transition of power and to prevent a repeat of the Jan 6 siege of the Capitol. Gen. Berger, our source said, didn’t understand why Pelosi needed additional soldiers to augment an already impressive force assembled by federal and state officials. That force includes 15,000 National Guard from D.C., Delaware, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island, and an undisclosed number of FBI and DHS agents who arrived in D.C. Sunday night.

Pelosi said she wanted “battle ready” reinforcements because “radicalized Trump supporters and kooky Qanon conspiracy people” were about to converge on D.C. She implored him to reconsider, arguing that it was the general’s patriotic duty to quell uprisings and guarantee Biden’s ascension to the Oval Office.

Her statement made the general explode, our source said.

“Don’t lecture me on patriotism, Madam Speaker. I’ve served this country with distinction for 40 years. I’ve spilled blood for our nation. What have you, a self-serving elected official, done for your country?” Gen. Berger said.

Pelosi further enraged him by saying he was answerable to Congress.

“I answer only to the president, and as I understand it, Donald J. Trump is still president and commander-in-chief. I abide in the Constitution as it was written, not your interpretation of it,” Gen. Berger admonished Pelosi.

Quoting our source, “When her intimidation tactic failed to sway Gen. Berger, Pelosi tried a different tactic: Begging and flattery.”

Pelosi claimed that the National Guard’s “weekend warriors” were ill-prepared to repel an army of “mad Trumpists.” Battle-hardened marines, however, were more capable of defeating “rabble rousers,” she said. “You have the best trained soldiers in the world, and America needs them.”

Gen. Berger was unmoved. The only way Marines would be deployed, he told her, was if President Trump himself issued that order.

“If you want us to help combat his supporters, I suggest you get him on the phone and tell him that. If he orders me to, I will. Otherwise, I suggest you listen really hard to the words escaping your cracked, poisonous lips; they’re tantamount to treason,” Gen. Berger allegedly told her.

Yes. Plausible, but it reads like a TV script.

Pelosi - Calling Marines ‘soldiers’ doesn’t help your case.


Ho ho That would be just like her! It could be true.
Remember President Trump is still POTUS and it aint over until the fat lady sings.

They might not talk like that to an elected official....but they likely don’t have 4 stars on their shoulders, either. Can’t really get any higher, rank-wise.

Undoubtedly.

When I moved from Seattle to my hobby farm in Kentucky in 2011, about 10% of the reason was as a SHTF home. I never seriously thought that would ever be necessary, though.

Yet here we are. I don’t see how we avoid it. And this year.

Can’t possibly be true, but very funny!


I agree. I’ll even go as far as to say that if this were actually true, he has effectively telegraphed that Trump will be using them before the swearing in.

Which, though possible, is highly doubtful.

This sounds like pure fiction.

“And if you want a second opinion, you’re ugly too!”

I spose it’s possible he said these things but not very likely.

Yeah, this didn't happen. Nice fiction though.

If this exchange is true, this is good news.

I don’t believe it, either — at least not the verbiage in quotes. He might’ve given her the same basic message, but in different words.

I don’t believe this. I want to believe this, but I don’t.

Exactly. Bears repeating. I believed it up until the last sentence.

Gen. Berger, our source said, didn’t understand why Pelosi needed additional soldiers...

Then the source is full of crap.

No Commandant would refer to his Marines as 'soldiers.'

Put me in your camp. Not to say Pelosi wouldn't be out in her place by the Marines but this account seems like someone pumping sunshine up a place the sun doesn't shine.

agree. It needs confirmation.

If the General resigns early in the afternoon of Jan 20, we will have that confirmation. But it might be tough getting that out of the MSM.

Oh, as you might know, even when retired the General knows how to find all the patriots in the Corps.

Agree.

How many top generals are even patriots anymore and not political boot lickers?
