“...hope Trump readies the rope after he is reelected”
A good knot is traditionally greased.
[Wiki] “When Grover Cleveland was the sheriff of Erie County, he performed two hangings. Cleveland was advised by a more experienced Sheriff to grease the rope with tallow and run it through the knot a few times to ensure rapid closure with the drop. The number of coils should therefore be adjusted depending on the intended use, the type and thickness of rope, and environmental conditions such as wet or greasy rope. Six to eight loops are normal when using natural ropes.”
Dan Rather standard If it sounds true, it probably is true.

I don’t think anyone can disgust me more than Lindsey Graham.
Mattis turned out to be a modern-version of Douglas MacArthur.

Remembered today as the “prince of Hangmen,” George Maledon’s actual work at Fort Smith is much more difficult to document. He stopped working for the federal court in 1894, and began traveling the area with a tent display showing gallows relics, including nooses and photographs of the men who died on the gallows.[1] The 1899 publication of “Hell on the Border” documented Maledon’s ties to the executions of the Federal Court, and first bestowed the title of “prince of hangmen.”[2]
I’m confused. Was Vindman a Lt. General, or a Lt. Colonel? It’s the difference between silver oak leaves, and 3 stars.
Lt. Colonel. He resigned because Trump wouldn’t promote to full col. /s
Thanks. One of the replies on that thread said he was a Lt. Gen. I knew THAT wasn’t honto.
It is true.
Sundance must have written this after a hard day of delivering the mail or whatever it is he does in his day job. Later in the article he correctly refers to Vindman as "Lieutenant Colonel".
thanks

“The Washington Post is primary PR for the CIA and IC writ large. The New York Times is primary PR for the FBI; and CNN is primary PR for the State Dept. This pattern has been consistent throughout.”
“Any commissioned officer who uses contemptuous words against the President, the Vice President, Congress, the Secretary of Defense, the Secretary of a military department, the Secretary of Homeland Security, or the Governor or legislature of any State, Commonwealth, or possession in which he is on duty or present shall be punished as a court-martial may direct.

Jess, you posted...
Mattis worked for the American people and the Constitution and was legally bound to support the President that the American people had lawfully elected.
Let’s agree he failed to support the President, as you say.
But, Mattis wasn’t fired by the “the Americans,” he was fired by the president.
I would say, in that case, he worked “FOR the president.”
Wasn’t he fired by two presidents?
Woodward needs to sign on an Biden’s Press Secretary.
just breezing through the posts on woodward’s epic book, it looks like mattis & coats hurt more than trump.
