DOD ordered to turn over records from Trump's Arlington National Cemetery incident
ABC News via MSN ^ | 23 October 2024 | ABC News

A federal judge has ordered the Department of Defense to turn over records related to former President Donald Trump's controversial visit to Arlington National Cemetery – meaning the public could soon see the incident report concerning an alleged altercation between Trump campaign officials and a cemetery employee.

American Oversight, a watchdog group filed a Freedom of Information lawsuit against DOD to obtain the incident report of the alleged Aug. 26 incident involving a member of Trump's campaign and the cemetery staff member.

ABC News has previously reported that there was a physical and verbal altercation between a Trump campaign official and a staff member attempting to enforce federal law prohibiting campaigning at the cemetery.

Trump's aides filmed a campaign video in a section of the cemetery where recently fallen service members are buried.

In September, ABC News reported law enforcement officials at a Virginia military base were still investigating the incident even after the Army said it considered the matter closed, according to multiple sources familiar with the matter.

NOT a campaign video. INVITED by families of slain military personnel due to Biden's Afghanistan debacle.

Not mentioned, of course, is no democrat came out on the anniversary of their deaths to say a word or offer condolences.

“American Oversight” is a far Left organization that is politically driven by the Left.

If you go to their website, you can tell from the first word you read.

I hate these people, all of them.

Run of the mill, lazy, brainless liberals who don’t have the time or inclination to get involved in nearly anything, well, I don’t hate them, I just have contempt for them.

The Leftists involved at all levels who are actively involved with things like this, I view as Domestic Enemies of this Republic, and should be treated as such. Not because I disagree with them, but because they all seek to undermine, corrode, and destroy the Constitution. That is undeniable.

And I took an oath, not repudiated, to defend that Constitution.

If the DOD is trying not to release it, it must not meet the agenda the left wants.

ABC is an arm of the DNC. The other morning Trump went to visit North Carolina and gave a news conference. ABC News led their top of the hour radio news with Trump went to North Carolina and repeated debunked claims about FEMA ‘s response. Every hour they led off with that but changed the term of debunked to some other negative term.

It was all over the news for a few days. The biggie is that the families of the fallen soldiers asked Trump if he would meet with them at the Cemetery.

After the ceremony the Gold Star families invited Trump to visit the graves.
He had brought a video crew to film the ceremony ( by prior arrangement with the families)

When a US Army civilian Karen tried to stop Trump and his entourage from accompanying the families ( again as they had requested)….it seems she got the brush aside, by who we don’t know ( Secret Service? Trump aide?) …and she reported it like she was assaulted. To the police.

No wonder the Army is too embarrassed to release the report,
