The Next President is...
You’re right, I mean with all the Twitter diplomacy, lawyers being hire and fired for possible criminal and civil litigation, hiring and firing of cabinet members, paying of porn starts (but not with campaign funds), military parade planning, who had time to focus on issues with the country? I’m sure the meeting at the DMZ this summer will net him Time Man of the Year honors and that Nobel Peace Prize. Cue all the classical realists...

What is right with the Air Force
Why don't people speak up? Because they know they'll be circumvented. Got a Sq/CC you don't like? Simple, talk to your Group Superintendent or even the Command Chief, you're in the Chief's club now. They'll get counseled by their bosses, or worst case you PCS (remember, the Chief's Group controls your assignments and Commanders have no say in Enlisted assignments 69% of the time). The Good Chiefs got out years ago, minus Enlisted Jesus. The current ones are trying to polish knobs so they can polish their resumes when they leave for the civilian sector. I spent 16 years in the USAF and I have no fucking clue what a Command Chief does other than shake hands, follow the Wing CC around, and get blown by SNCO's, especially First Sergeants, for strats.

What is right with the Air Force
The problem with the Enlisted Corps is due to two things: 1. Chiefs think they're the ultimate authority. 2. Competent Officers/Commanders don't rein in the Chiefs from being stupid idea fairies. Enlisted Jesus has been working overtime trying to help fix the Enlisted Corps and USAF from the two previous E-9's (Roy and Cody) that were before him. He's a good dude.

What's wrong with the Air Force?
Depends on what the boss things. The Washington ANG (-135) Wing King was forced to retire last year, losing his promotion to Brig Gen, for having an affair with the OG Superintendent.

What's wrong with the Air Force?
It made the media because it was in social media first, this wouldn’t of made the local news 20 years ago. There are bigger things to worry about. If you’re worried about quibbing like this, then I hope you’re correcting every Enlisted person who doesn’t salute and every Officer who goes out of their way to dodge one.

The job given to the ROAD Maj/Lt Col who just wants to fly until retirement.

Yeah, you should watch Fox News with credible commentary from people like Sean Hannity.- The Next President is...
Any why are you wondering that? Only Blue Falcons ask those questions.- What's wrong with the Air Force?
Tennessee is a good ANG unit too. I’d expect this from Alabama.- The Next President is...
It’s a recommmendation, sorta like how the legal office made recommendations to you as a Commander. So, did the legal office advise you as a Commander, or did they just do whatever they wanted when it came time to charge someone via the UCMJ? And to be really shitty about it, Comey is a barred attorney by trade. So, if he was doing a legal analysis on the investigative report and offering an opinion, he was qualified to do so.- The Next President is...

I’ll just send a letter from prison to Trump saying how I got screwed breaking the law like Hilary. Then I’ll get a pardon.- The Next President is...
Referencing a post about politics while someone in said post quotes Article 88, which only applies to Officers, and can also apply to retirees, but doesn’t apply to those who separated and had IRR (i.e. me). I think you had an off day.- The Next President is...
I guess you’re assuming I’m in the military, according to my DD-214, I’m not. Thanks for playing. Very detailed to include a Fox News link. Copy.- The Next President is...
Don’t go into detail with your counter argument. I’m on pins and needles waiting for your response.- The Next President is...
You’re right, he’s a rich fucking moron. And being rich allows him to be a bigger fucking moron. Of course this is the same guy who wants to sit down and be deposed by the Mueller team. Not normally a wise thing to do when your personal counsel is telling you otherwise, but who gives a shit right? #MAGA Speaking of other fucking morons, there’s Nunes. Of course he’s such a fucking moron no attorney would ever probably call him for testimony because of being annhilated by the opposing counsel. https://www.lawfareblog.com/irony-nunes-memo- The Next President is...
You keep saying saying this, but what proof are you offering that Mueller is “tainted?” Because he was a former director? Then why did Rosenstein (via Congress) appoint him? Strozk was a low level member of the Mueller’s team, not some major decision maker. And if appearances matter, then who does Sessions actually work for? Is he the Executive branch’s personal counsel and watch dog for things Trump just doesn’t like? Or is he part of the Judicial branch as AG?- The Next President is...
Agreed. But the facts in the article are not in dispute. There FBI recommended one of their own gets fired, Sessions agreed, and obviously so did the president. Well, the President’s opinion on the issue has no bearing since McCabe’s not an appointed official, like Sessions is. Sessions did it because he wants to keep his job.- The Next President is...
Ah, the National Review. I’m sure it’s as fair and balanced as Fox News claims towards a guy who’s wife ran as a Democrat in Virginia.- The Next President is...
https://mobile.nytimes.com/2018/03/19/us/politics/andrew-mccabe-fbi-firing-explained.html Who exactly in the FBI thought McCabe should be fired?- The Next President is...
It’s called the military “justice” system led by the retards known as OSI and dipshit Commanders who have the investigative skills of Barney Fife. Appearances do matter. You have a Republican (Comey) who was allegedly fired by a Republican (Trump) for not backing off investigating a Republican (Flynn) via the Russian investigation. Then, a Republican (Rosenstein) appointed a Republican (Mueller) to form a special counsel to investigate the firing and Russian involvement with the 2016 Presidential election. And since he’s charged Republican’s (Flynn, Manafort, and Gates) with crimes. Dont really know where ideologies are bent? As stated above Rosenstein has full authority and oversight over Mueller. I guess we’ll see if Trump gets annoyed enough to have Sessions (who’s recused, right?) either fire Mueller himself, which will surely bring an obstruction charge directly to Trump, or force Sessions to force Rosenstein to fire Mueller.- The Next President is...
I highly doubt a cop, under oath in court, is going to say “yeah I pulled him over just cause.” If you believe that, then you’ve never been in court. - The Next President is...
