Agree.
Every act they take is a template for what should transpire in a new Trump administration. There are retired flag officers who participated in the coup of the Russia hoax. They should be recalled and court-martialed.
Excellent, historical reminders of what these commies have done, to smear folks, over the years.
Thank you.
Excellent post, rlmorel.
Keep it handy so you don’t have to rewrite it when the usual suspects post the same article from another liberal source.
He was also pushign to find out more about the covid vaxx and the extensive injuries to civilians as well as military.
obviously, this is a hit hoping to shut him up.
It is disappointing. Of all the attitudes that disillusion and anger me, it is people who say Flynn was “obviously guilty” because he pleaded guilty, is one that affects me the most.
Those people seem to have no conception of the power of a tyrannical government when it is turned against a citizen who has no power against it, particularly a weaponized government with bottomless pockets and infinite time. They can’t be outfought, outspent, or waited out.
He was set up by a plotting government to whom he was a danger.
He had to sell his house to meet his legal expenses. His son with a new infant child was threatened with prosecution on baseless charges by a corrupt Leftist deep state out for a scalp, and would stop at nothing to get it. He finally was forced to plead guilty because he could no longer fight.
The charges eventually were dropped because documents showing agents (Bill Priestap) discussing his interview with Comey and McCabe, saying “What is our goal? Truth/Admission or to get him to lie, so we can prosecute him or get him fired?”
Take this in light of Comey being interviewed, with the cow-like liberal audience laughing when Comey told them-actually discussed it aloud in public, that he deliberately set up Flynn and Trump by sending FBI agents over to set up Flynn without arranging for the presence of White House Counsel, acting like they were on his side and just wanted to clear up some loose ends, all the time with the intention of setting him up.
And Flynn, thinking they were all playing on the same team, not perceiving the evil intent, innocently invited them in.
And these execrable dipsticks say Flynn deserved what he got.
And Trump deserved what he got.
And Jackson deserved what HE got.
It makes me angry. The people on this forum are just as culpable as any dedicated Leftist in the evil befalling our country as using the organs of government to persecute American citizens becomes overlooked, denied, normalized, and then accepted. These assholes completely support this.
Their only defense is that they might be too lazy or ignorant to learn the facts, know the facts, or accept the facts of these things. But they persist and stick with their ignorance just the same.
And yes. It makes me damn angry.
That's why a "defense file" on Ronny Jackson, Gen. Flyn, and other targeted conservatives is needed to confront the Dem talking points.
PRESIDENT TRUMP says, "This is the final battle for the soul of America." We must be vigilant and press on!
EXCERPT:
“Three years ago I was the subject of a political hit job because I stood with President Trump. Today, a Department of Defense Inspector General report has resurrected those same false allegations from my years with the Obama Administration because I have refused to turn my back on President Trump,” [Jackson] said in a statement [03/03/2021].
Navy demoted Rep. Ronny Jackson over conduct as Trump’s physician - Washington Times, 03/07/2024
EXCERPT:
The Navy retroactively demoted Rep. Ronny Jackson to the rank of captain in 2022 over his conduct in the White House as former President Trump’s physician.
The demotion was not made public until a Thursday [03/07/2024] report in The Washington Post based on anonymous sources but which the Navy later confirmed to The Post.
“After publication of this story, the Navy provided Jackson’s service record, which shows the rank of captain retroactively applied to the date of his retirement in December 2019,” The Post wrote.
- - -
Ronnie Jackson retired as a Rear Admiral. He was not demoted until 3 years after his retirement. The U.S. Navy did not make his demotion public information, until 5 years after his retirement.
- - -
The Washington Post would like us to know that there will be a retirement pay cut of $15,000 per year. "That payout gap is likely to widen over time as the military periodically increases its pay rates for each position."
So the Washington Post has Capt. Ronnie Jackson on its rack, to be further drawn out . . .
For the record, Capt. Jackson was not accused by the U.S. Air Farce Academy for saying "mother" or "father." [The Navy missed its chance to demote Jackson to Cadet.]

At one time the Navy rank above paygrade O-6 (Captain) was Commodore, the lowest flag rank. Next up was Rear Admiral, originally a two-star rank. The Army used Brigadier General for O-7, one-star. The Army one-star was a General and the Navy one-star was not an Admiral, inducing rank name envy. The rank of Commodore was withdrawn and the rank of Rear Admiral was split in half, RADM upper and lower, referring to time in rank. RADM (lower) (O-7) is a one-star and RADM (upper) (O-8) is a two star, and rank name envy was solved.
Pursuant to the IG Report, the matter was taken up as an administrative action by Navy Secretary Carlos Del Toro, reaching a decision to change Jackson's retirement rank to O-6, Captain in July 2022.
This had nothing to do with any judicial procedure such as a court-martial. IG investigations allow rumors and third-hand hearsay. The standard is preponderance of the evidence (more likely than not). These procedures would not quite rise to the level of a J-6 committee investigation and report. The allegations might be interesting if contrasted with his fitess reports for the same time period.
As this appears to be a purely administrative procedure performed by SECNAV Del Toro, I suspect it could be reversed by another administrative procedure performed by future President Trump, if there be one.
I provide the timeline as it may lead to some curiosity.

Lawmaker who claims to be a retired rear admiral was actually demotedBy Geoff Ziezulewicz

The law in this country depends on who you are and who you know.
Not sure what point you are making.
Are you saying Don Bacon receives his full Air Force retirement pension PLUS his full Congressional salary?
That used to be called Double Dipping, and forbidden, since you have the same employer, just a different job than you had before.
I spent 20 minutes on Google and Bing trying to track down the answer on full military pension PLUS full Congressional pay check, but I cannot find that specific issue.
And if you dared to expose, or oppose, the lying, thieving, criminal government.
No, I can’t recall that ever happening. Nor, frankly, what the mechanism might need for doing so. And I sat second chair to Mike Murphy my first 3 courts martial as a prosecutor and was as disappointed as anybody at his deception.
I saw that, but didn’t comment.
When I feel the need to comment on something military related, I try to get those details right. Some of it I know (Navy related) but some I don’t (such as unit designations in the USMC, or various ratings that I am less familiar with.)
When I don’t, I make an attempt to find out. In this case, I had no idea if the new, woke military was fudging around with designations and such (particularly the USN differentiation-Commodore is an unusual designation during peacetime, IIRC, it was only used in war as a temporary designation for a Captain who was temporarily in charge of a large sub-unit, but otherwise, the transition was always from Captain to Rear Admiral, not Captain to Commodore to Rear Admiral) so...I just let it pass.
It is telling when journalists don’t even bother to determine details, that oversight something they appear to excel at.
What a change in a lifetime. When I was a very young kid, I didn’t question anything at all that I saw in a newspaper or on television.
Now, as an old man, I question EVERYTHING that comes out of them.
That, my FRiend, is the result of experience. Sigh. I admit, life was easier when I just accepted what they said.
But we aren’t here to find the easiest life, that is for sure.
"...Ronnie Jackson retired as a Rear Admiral. He was not demoted until 3 years after his retirement. The U.S. Navy did not make his demotion public information, until 5 years after his retirement.
The Washington Post would like us to know that there will be a retirement pay cut of $15,000 per year. "That payout gap is likely to widen over time as the military periodically increases its pay rates for each position."
So the Washington Post has Capt. Ronnie Jackson on its rack, to be further drawn out..."
How many years later?
"What, did he think (from the view of the people who had knives out for him) that we would forget? That we would assume he was a nobody? That we could consider our job done? No. All of this is also for entertainment and the wielding of power, in a way to remind the little people of who holds it, even if they can't know our names."
This is the power of the Deep State.
It doesn't blink.
It doesn't sleep.
It doesn't run out of money.
It doesn't see the passage of time.
Once the Deep State has decided you are a threat, like a Policy and Procedure" drawn up by a company that specifies a number of tasks that need to be accomplished every day by someone, the persecution of someone deemed an enemy is turned into a long term administrative task, carried out impersonally, meant to cause hardship on the subject over time until they disappear, and until EVERYONE gets the unmistakable message: Don't cross us, because we have “six ways from Sunday at getting back at you” (to reference a more "in your face" threat from Chuck Schumer against President Trump)
See my reply 8 and my reply 16 at Jim Jordan Tees Off At Hearing After Democrat Says There Are ‘Limits’ To Free Speech
My reply 16 is actually the work by Freeper bitt
As a poster already noted Reno911 and its “Crew” show up to troll all things positive Trump.
Its all they have since there “Democrat” wolves in sheep's clothing, bought and paid for Desantis & Haley have lost. All that's left for them now is Biden. In the end that is their goal. We are Not fooled..
Oh ,and we must not forget the the "Voter Fraud" Meme that gets posted on every thread. You know so we don't bother to vote for Trump as they other side is gonna cheat LOL! :) Trump 2024
After re-reading my post let me be clear, “what should have been done” was retrieving, reading and posting the IG report. After reading that report, I am more disturbed by the action of our Navy in this matter and believe the reduction in rank (3 years) after retirement seems more than “a little weak on being right.”
