President Donald Trump will sign an executive order to reinstate service members booted from the military for declining to get COVID-19 vaccine jabs, according to the White House.

"The Executive Order directs the Secretary of Defense to reinstate all members of the military (active and reserve) who were discharged for refusing the COVID vaccine and who request to be reinstated," according to the White House fact sheet.

The service members who are reinstated will be restored to their prior rank, and will be provided back pay and benefits, according to the fact sheet.

And imagine a parry that is so filled with hate that it hates all the great things that pres Trump is doing for this nation. That parry of course is the Democrat party. A parry that hates this nation, loves terrorists, coddles crim8nals, hates and abuses children and doesn’t bother to find the 300,000 missing chi,dren who were kidnapped and put into sex slavery and child labor despite knowing where most of them are

What type of discharge did these folks receive?

This is a cheap buyout unless the person was approaching retirement. The taxpayer is going to pay for what these kriminals such as Fauxi did. Every penny of their back pay needs to come from the board and stockholders of Pfizer, MurdeRNA, the pensions of the military brass who gave the illicit orders, and the pensions of those in the CDC who created, promoted, and covered up the COVID-1984 bioweapon and the Jim Jones Jab.

Many of the service members who were in their first or second tour, and who had no intention of making a career of the military, likely walked away without looking back. They're not likely to return to Active Duty. I know I wouldn't. If in their shoes, I'd refuse the buyout and testify at Nuremberg II about the unlawful orders that every officer gave or enforced in relation to the Jim Jones Jab.

Lifers will apply their reinstatement towards their 20 years and then quit(methinks).

Lifers in the military get screwed all the time. Some of the most bitter NCO’s were senior enlisted men who were just putting in their time.

Remember Trump poo pooing McCain’s POW record? Or dissing the guys at Normandy? He should refer to those shot takers as willing chumps, especially the generals.

On a lighter note I knew one lifer that got out after 19 years. Bill Clinton gave him credit for the 20th(downsizing). He will forever be grateful to the man. I would too.

What about apologies and compensation to the ones who were relentlessly persecuted and threatened with court martial for resisting the jab by legal means?

I served under McCain for a short period of time, and I pooh-pooh his record too, for damn good reason.

McCain had a key hand in the RussiaGate Hoax and has relinquished any standing in my eyes he had as a military man, the same way Benedict Arnold and Mark Milley did.

As for “Trump dissing the guys at Normandy? He should refer to those shot takers as willing chumps, especially the generals.” Do you really believe that, or are you being rhetorical?

It is possible DIRTYSECRET was being rhetorical, so I will see what is what before I jump on a fellow Freeper.

I refused to condemn McCain on here for years, simply because of my military upbringing and the fact he was my CO for a few months back in the mid-Seventies.

But I had a fellow Freeper help me see the errors of my ways (instead of calling me names, as often happens on here.)

So I won't do that for DIRTYSECRET out of the chute.

Thanks-I appreciate that, but it doesn’t count at all for me, as I have viewed the way the media (the Left) does business, and when I see “anonymous sources” coming from them, I categorically label it as false.

Due to their track record, they have shown that they cannot be trusted on ANYTHING, never mind things relayed by “anonymous sources”.

If John Solomon tells me he has an “anonymous source” I will take him at his word, because he has not salted the ground he walks on like the Leftist media has.

The Leftist Media is, and has been for decades, utterly and un-redeemably dead to me.

I do. The people who gave up their careers for refusing the covid shots are the real heroes. You gotta remember these people signed up ready to give their lives for their country. How many of the refuseniks were career officers? They behaved like sheep.

The Jooz followed like sheep to the slaughter. Thank god we got black folk here.

I was referring to your reference to the accusation against Trump by unnamed sources in the Media that he called the fallen at Normandy “losers”.

I don’t take a stance on an individual choice someone made, since I don’t know their circumstances.

I was querying you about the reference to Trump.
