We know that in the leftist lexicon, legitimate critique equals attack as it relates to leftist and establishment media. The MSM believes that is the rightful ruler of the world.

Please tell me what y’all might know about McRaven’s role in suppressing the information in the aftermath of the Extortion 17 shoot down? Did he have any role in command and control of the mission itself ? What was his role in acting for then President Obama in disseminating information to the families of the fallen ? And what is the nexus , if any , of Extortion 17 to the bin Laden takedown ?

Ask any SEAL that has ever known the asshole McRaven and they’ll tell you he’s been a hardcore progressive democrat his entire military career.

An admiral is the architect of a raid? That’s a Captain or Major’s job, with senior support for diplomacy’s sake.

I don't care what degree they have or don't have. I've worked with SEALs, they are tactically superb, but not deep thinkers. It's their culture. It is what it is.

McCraven didn't need to worry about a clandestine exfil, yet he builds it into the plan unnecessarily. Who else would have done the raid except the US? No need to hide it.

This joker McRaven was being considered for the veep slot with Hillary in 2016. He’s an Obama toady and has been attacking Trump since his inauguration. What is Trump supposed to do, just sit back and take it? Hell no!

Any man who calls Trump a world threat deserves to be treated as a fool. A dangerous fool if they held positions of rank and trust,

Cant even...

McRaven/Tapper. You idiots,(but then we know your narrative) the President didn’t attack the Press, he attacked a rude, viscous ‘journalist’.
Acosta should have been escorted out simply for his rude, disrespectful behavior.
CNN has plenty of press passes aside from Acosta’s.

We’ve all seen Zero Dark Thirty... Apparently, that is based on reality and the reality when you watch that movie is this... They knew where the bad guy was. The intelligence agents just wanted to blow him to smithereens without threatening the life’s of special ops dudes... And they waited, and waited and waited to hit him... Why did they wait??? I guess they were waiting for somebody to tell him to move on... But he didn’t and somehow, someway they manged to get the SOB. No thanks to this admiral or his master Obama.

The American patriot gives entirely too much credit to the military man. The Bell Curve works as well for the military element as it does for the civilian.

Goebbels’ narrative in ‘44 was that Germans would never be involved with anything like death camps or mass exterminations. That was Jewish propaganda!

Until a few years ago, “scientists” and archeologists were calling a great flood a myth, too.

And that lone gunman, Lee Harvey Oswald killed JFK.

Yeah, right!

No, what is a threat to the constitution is telling the American people they are deplorable, stupid, they smell, that they are irrelevant, because the liberal elite didn’t like their choice for President. And the same liberal elite spending two years creating lies to take down this duly elected POTUS, at all cost. THAT is a constitutional crisis.

Exactly right, a bureaucrat. He wasn’t on the mission was he?

That is very interesting and revealing. That McRaven rose to the rank of Vice Admiral or Full Admiral says a lot about intra service politics. Did he go from Team Six to being some flag officer's dog robber?

He’s virtue signaling that he’s available to be DCIA, DNI or national security advisor in the next Rat administration.

Leftists never want to be held accountable themselves yet hurl endless baseless accusations at others.

I wouldnt give a plugged nickel for these propagandists/frauds/cheats/traitors lives when all is done.

NO LONG JOURNALISTS ...AS POLITICAL ACTIVISTS THEY CAN BE SUED FOR THEIR FRAUD.

BOYCOTT THEM.
