FAKE NEWS: WaPo Did Not Tell Whole Story on DC National Guard Chief’s Resignation (Video)

[HarleyLady27]

On Friday the Washington Post reported that Maj, Gen. Errol Schwartz will be removed from his post as head of the DC National Guard DURING the Trump Inauguration.

Schwartz told the Post he would “never plan to leave a mission in the middle of a battle.”

[proust]

Wow, great work Freepers! They picked up your scoop! 🤠

[Nifster]

Actually he was appointed by bush

[bgill]

WaPo needs it’s press pass revoked. That’s the only thing that these presstitutes understand.

Trump should let Schwartz’ expiration date stand. Another BLM throwing a temper tantrum over nothing. America doesn’t need this in her leaders.

[deport]

This is a political appt made by the President. The guy is 65 years old and it’s time to move on.

For what it’s worth Dept.........

snip
From the Washington Post article

.....
As is customary, Schwartz, like other presidential appointees, submitted a letter of
resignation to give the new administration a clean start. He had done so before, but
the Obama administration twice declined to accept.

The Trump transition team made the decision to accept Schwartz’s resignation,
according to a military official with knowledge of the situation.

[Pride in the USA]

Not a man of integrity. Very sad indeed.

[Blueflag]

You’re right - look at his campaign ribbons. I couldn’t even spot a sharpshooters pin.

[Grampa Dave]

A single picture is worth a thousand words. He is a BLMer seeking publicity while trying to trash our incoming President.

[Lorianne]

Otherwise known a lying by omission.

a.k.a FAKE NEWS

[CommieCutter]

Off subject but another recent example of Faking it.

I watched NBC nightly news the other evening as they reported the Trump press conference.

They talked about it in detail over and over then edited out Trump’s, “You’re Fake News” moment.

[yoe]

He was appointed by obama. All appointments end at noon on the 20th....

You forgot to ad the requisite sarcasm sign

[boycott]

All hat and no cattle.

Nice uniform and lots of badges but ........

[AbnSarge]

According to his ribbon rack,
15 years of war, and his only overseas trip was an annual training someplace.

[proust]

That’s what 37 years in the National Guard, four degrees and no active duty looks like. A career politician.

[stars & stripes forever]

[Nice uniform and lots of badges but ........]

Nice uniform and lots of badges do not make a man.

[TYVets]

Not a man of integrity. Very sad indeed.

Washington Post, 0bama, Schwartz and Fake News. Same old lies for the past 8 years.

[ifinnegan]

Everyone is trying to make hay off of this.

I like how Gateway Pundit has to use Free Republic to show the Post’s shenanigans.

But, when they use Fox, they fail.

Simple story is, these appointees all hand in letters of resignation.

His was accepted.

Whether he leaves at 12:01 or 6:01 is of no consequence.

This turns out to be a giant non-story.

[boycott]

He said that he would “never plan to leave a mission in the middle of a battle.”

And what would this man know about battle? Geezzz.... and he gets to be called general.

[Grampa Dave]

Thanks for the confirmation of another PC BLMer in a high ranking political position:

According to his ribbon rack, 15 years of war, and his only overseas trip was an annual training someplace.

[Paladin2]

General Black.

[DugwayDuke]

Someone want to explain how “5,000 unarmed troops dispatched from across the country to help.” inaugural security? This guy is in charge of a bunch of UNARMED traffic cops and misc ash and trash. The real security is the Old Guard an active duty regiment tasked with securing the capital.
