As bombs began raining down on Ukrainian cities, Donald Trump called into Fox News to blame – you guessed it – Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton.by Donald J. Trump.
As Russian tanks began pouring over the Ukrainian border, Fox News host Laura Ingraham had the gall to call Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky “pathetic.”
And if you tune into Tucker Carlson these days, you’ll see a show that might as well have been written and produced by Russian state media. Fox News showcases the chasm between traditional GOP normative behavior and the fringe-right cabal now headed
As the commander of military forces in East Africa, I asked the American Forces Network to replace Fox News during meal hours for troops. Why? Because they were harmful to America's outreach overseas. They put our troops in jeopardy and made my jobharder. Today, they have accomplices.
Without Fox News, Trump would have only ever been a bungling celebrity who foolishly and laughably ran for president.media manipulation of facts, commonly called disinformation.
Real-time reckoning of lies needs real-time litigation. There is such a thing as gross distortions of fact and purveyors of such must pay a debilitating price. My answer to Fox when I was an admiral in the U.S. Navy? I pulled the plug.
If I defeat Chuck Grassley and turn Iowa blue this November, I will be the most senior military person ever elected to the United States Senate. And I think it’s about time we had more people in leadership who understand the true costs of war and
The polls show we can win. The pundits say we must win. And with your help today, we can fight back against McConnell’s Super PAC lies and protect our Democratic majority in the Senate.
Fox News’ propaganda cannot go unanswered. But it takes significant funding to run a full-scale campaign and take on all of Grassley’s and McConnell’s lies.

Fox News’ propaganda cannot go unanswered. But it takes significant funding to run a full-scale campaign and take on all of Grassley’s and McConnell’s lies.Ahhh... a liberal politician running for office, appealing for money so he can hopefully win and be supported by the taxpayers the rest of his life. And throwing Trump and FOX under the bus while doing his begging. He could have at least come up with

I am not sure how we would have been able to prop up the shah any
longer. Maybe the real answer would have been for the CIA to get some Corsicans to shoot the ayatollah before he could get back to rally the locals.
I agree we were somewhat feckless with the embassy take over but the
options were fairly limited. An invasion in force would have just
assured the hostages would die.
Carter's "desert one" debacle made us a laughing stock. It was flawed
from the start. Using Navy mine sweeping helicopters in the desert was
just the beginning of the problems with that plan.

George Bush wanted to prove he wasn't a wimp and doomed us to 30 years
of war, only resulting in the worst terrorist attack in history
prolonging a war that should have been over in 1991 like they
promised. We didn't show the world we were tough, we showed them we

if gwhb went home like we promised, no 911, no Iraq war, no
Afghanistan war. We save thousands of GI lives, trillions of dollars
and don't have to get molested at the airport by TSA, (that would not
exist). Nor would we have the abusive Homeland Security and the
Patriot act.
Yeah, we showed them.

Yeah, we showed them.

We were propping Saddam up during his war with Iran (80-88) and along

It is hard to find much good Carter did but he did keep us out of
silly wars.
Reagan was smart enough to only fight little wars he could win like
Grenada but when Bush (Sr) continued an air war with Iraq after all of
our objectives in Kuwait were accomplished he set us on a path that
lasted 30 years with absolutely nothing good to show for it. We ended
up worse off.
OBL's rise was a reaction to the US not withdrawing from Saudi Arabia
after Kuwait was secured.
Personally I thought Kuwait was a mistake. I predicted then, once we
got mixed up in that mess, we would have a hard time getting out. We
should have let the arabs sort that mess out themselves and we could
buy oil from the winners. Our support should have been no deeper than
selling them weapons if we really thought we needed to do anything. It
wasn't like Kuwait or the Saudis were Jeffersonian democracies we
needed to protect. Watch them kill each other off and eat our popcorn.

was more of a force than anything Fox said. Every move Trump made was

The point was that NBC, CBS and ABC share equally with Fox the rise of
Trump.
They thought he had no chance of winning so they hyped Trump up to
torpedo any serious threat from the GOP to Hillary. The joke was on
them and how badly they underestimated the frustration in fly over
land to the Washington status quo.

Real-time reckoning of lies needs real-time litigation. There is such a thing as gross distortions of fact and purveyors of such must pay a debilitating price. My answer to Fox when I was an admiral in the U.S. Navy? I pulled the plug.
If I defeat Chuck Grassley and turn Iowa blue this November, I will be the most senior military person ever elected to the United States Senate. And I think its about time we had more people in leadership who understand the true costs of war and
Another stupidity from Donnie.The polls show we can win. The pundits say we must win. And with your help today, we can fight back against McConnells Super PAC lies and protect our Democratic majority in the Senate.
Fox News propaganda cannot go unanswered. But it takes significant funding to run a full-scale campaign and take on all of Grassleys and McConnells lies.
Trump and all his bootlickers should be tried for treason.
Feeling nervous, JohnnyMop?
They're coming to get y'all. Hopefully they'll freeze your bloated military pension while y'all serve your time.

Yeah, we showed them.
But if Carter had not wimped out, we may not have had Kuwait.
huh?
We were propping Saddam up during his war with Iran (80-88) and along
with France and the Soviets, Reagan built up his army. What did that
have to do with Carter?
It is hard to find much good Carter did but he did keep us out of
silly wars.
Reagan was smart enough to only fight little wars he could win like
Grenada but when Bush (Sr) continued an air war with Iraq after all of
our objectives in Kuwait were accomplished he set us on a path that
lasted 30 years with absolutely nothing good to show for it. We ended
up worse off.
OBL's rise was a reaction to the US not withdrawing from Saudi Arabia
after Kuwait was secured.
Personally I thought Kuwait was a mistake. I predicted then, once we
got mixed up in that mess, we would have a hard time getting out. We
should have let the arabs sort that mess out themselves and we could
buy oil from the winners. Our support should have been no deeper than
selling them weapons if we really thought we needed to do anything. It
wasn't like Kuwait or the Saudis were Jeffersonian democracies we
needed to protect. Watch them kill each other off and eat our popcorn.

eastern Med that shall remain unnamed. If we stopped cow towing to
them we could divest ourselves of the middle east entirely like we

it was a disaster so we ignore them. Maybe it is time we made the same observation about the mid east and south Asia.

Heh. Not so fast. Biden just green-lighted deploying troops to Somalia.
Why is sleepy Joe such a war monger?
He is a democrat. They love sending other mother's kids off to fight a
stupid war. This sounds like that draft dodging Clinton's misadventure
there. The indication is these troops will be taking a more active
role in going after al-Shabab and that is the kind of crap the Deltas
got killed over.
Do we really think there is something to win?
Al-Shabab is just the warlord flavor of the week there and if we
killed them all, another one will fill their place before the smoke
clears.
