The U.S. government is offering military funeral honors for Ashli Babbitt. She was the rioter who was killed at 35 by an officer in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol.
I reviewed the reporting on that - the West Point commencement was reported as ‘scattered’ applause from families for his demented ramblings, and normal applause for references to Schwarzkopf and Patton.
I couldn’t find itbut there was some report about the graduates being chosen for “looks” somewhere. Which fits, of course.
Yeah. I’m confident he did that for optics and propaganda. My concern is that the military inherently attracts the Own The Libs crowd. Trump wants the military loyal to him because, well, he’s already showing his hand but he’s getting them used to being commanded by his whimsy. He will continue to escalate his involvement with the military and then ask them to break their oath. Then, the plan to execute a coup will be in full swing. The loyalists that Hegseth has appointed will do their dirt to enable Trump and unless they have overestimated their hand, they will be successful.
