This symbolism is clear—The USMC is on Biden’s side—the Democrat-Progressive camp and will back up “their man” to enforce his will upon the “Enemies of the state.” Like the FBI, DoJ and IRS they are the enforcement arm of the powerful Deep State. Do not dare to Vote for Trump or any of his minions—or you will get a marine boot in your face. Heck, your vote will not be counted anyway! Only approved people will be permitted to win. “Moderate” Democrats, Right Thinking RINO Republicans, and out and out Green deal fanatics. The USMC has made their choice—side with the powers that be and to heck with the People.

I wonder who provided the Marine Band and the uniformed Marines for this speech. Should be easy enough to find out. Somebody wearing at least 2-stars approved it.

“i am surprised he did not have an f-15 flyover”

As part of a napalm strike on the pine barrens of South Jersey — just to put an exclamation point on his anti-gun rhetoric.

This deflection issue will go meaningless and Much and Nancy know it
Complete deflection from the reality of the machine

The core reason for the 87k agents in the recent bill passage.

Bushes would be up to parading the same

Those two “marines” were obviously Biden stooges. Perhaps in the future, they will receive a Code Red by Col. Nathan R. Jessup.

The same people who set off a bomb in the US Capitol in 1984 are now running the country.

Bla bla bla bla bla

Mattis started this criticizing the commander in chief as a marine corp Gen Rey actively working as chairman of the joint chiefs

That is not allowed and it’s never been done. It’s against the UCMJ for any active duty person from PFC, A1C through captain major to general and definitely general - punishable - to criticize the commander in chief - from Washington to Obama
It breaks down the entire system

Here’s one example that-
A friend from another country now a citizen here said Trump is terrible. The military don’t like him and don’t respect him. For the first time they are criticizing him. Never been done before. In other words Trump is so bad they are allowed to break the military law

No, they are so corrupt they are breaking the law and they want the law and order president out.

Here’s something else:
A young former marine I know said- three years ago when asked- he agreed with Mattis. F Trump.

So I wonder what the story was at that mein kampf speech. We’re the marines actors? We’re they made to do that? Were they supposed to decline stating the orders to represent and questionably support a presidential candidate during a campaign event unlawful under UCMJ? Were they supposed to decline stating the orders to represent and questionably support a president during an anti constitutional anti American speaking/scolding event unlawful under UCMJ? Or did they go willingly. Or volunteer?

Misuse of Tge military is a huge part and symbol of this “speech” scolding.

“Yet, Milley has said nothing about supplying not just the Marine Band but Marines to stand directly behind Biden at a political speech ”

____________

Something is up. How come no Republican politicians are questioning this?

Dear Truley:
Be honest.

Make that same speech in a butterfly sanctuary and word for word it’s offensive.

Looks like no one cares enough to do anything about the illegal, ethically wrong, etc. things this government is doing.

I think they were not actual marines. Did you see any indication of rank? They stood in no known position. Not attention, not parade rest, not at ease.


I thought I saw corporal stripes on one and sergeant stripes on the other. I too was puzzled by the position. I asked and someone said it is a ‘formal at rest’ position. I confess, I’ve never heard of it before and I can’t seem to find any pics of it.

Holding your hands in front your torso like that while Brandon rants and raves doesn’t look all that restful to me, but Marines are made of tougher stuff than I am.

They were Marines. 8th and I doesn’t follow the same drill manual. The Marines were just following orders and it is folly to think anyone would have refused to provide them. They were doing their ceremonial job, not responsible for what came out of the mouth of the installed Commander in Chief.

This one is squarely on Dork Brandon for their misuse. It will be remembered, if we survive him.

Thank you. And since it seems to be a special position, I’ll assume the Marines in the background of Brandon’s Nuremberg speech are on the regular WH door duty detail.

The Nazi party strikes again. There’s really nothing too low for the dem/Nazi party anymore. They just make up their own rules and laws as they go along because no one will hold them accountable.

The Dem/Nazi party is now the very definition of anarchy/lawlessness. It should be added to the definition in Webster’s Dictionary.
