Maybe he missed the gathering of 75,000 Taliban in Alabama this past weekend.

I watched and have now seen pixs of the massive crowd.

Just wondering, where did you get the number, 75,000?

Boy they are doing literally everything in their ability to destroy anything related to Trump, especially people who support him.

In his military career this REMF received the Defense Distinguished Service Medal, Defense Superior Service Medal with oak leaf cluster, Legion of Merit, Bronze Star Medal
Meritorious Service Medal with two oak leaf clusters, Air Force Commendation Medal, Air Force Achievement Medal. Which only proves that military officers spend half their time trying to gain the system and be awarded medals.

Also note that his tenure started in 2006.

During W’s administration.

Republican is heads, Democrat is tails, but it is the same damned coin.

That’s right. Anyone ‘fit’ to lead the CIA is an enemy of the Republic. We all grew up thinking the CIA was cool and contained super badass operators working day and night to protect American interests. Nothing could be further from the truth.

I just made that up.. What is the estimate? I watched the Scavino video and seemed like at least 50,000.

I compare Hayden to Jon Lovitz liar character from SNL.

"Yeah,that's the ticket".
