The U.S. Army entered the latest anti-Trump political fray Thursday, issuing a statement to rebuke the former president over an alleged altercation at Arlington National Cemetery (ANC) earlier this week. (snip) The Army spokesperson said the incident was reported to the police department at Joint Base Myer-Henderson Hall, (snip) The Trump campaign disputed NPR’s version of events, insisting that photography was permitted and the person trying to block them was having “a mental health episode.” (snip) Joe Biden (snip) during the 2020 presidential campaign, used a video of him standing over a tomb in Section 60 for a political ad.

The U.S. Army should spend it's time planning and training in an effort to avoid losing the next war.

Trump is right, The Army is wrong. It's as simple as that.

After Trump is elected and sworn in, he should order those Army people to come to the Oval Office, stand at attention with toes and noses touching the wall while they sing “I’m a little teapot…”. Film at 11:00, I hope.

Has the Army rebuked Biden/Harris for the unnecessary loss of 13 lives in Afghanistan?

They may not want to tick off their new commander in chief. Milley and Austin are as good as gone anyway.

Nothing political about this "rebuke" at all. Nope, our military is not totally coopted by toe-sucking, Democrat/Marxist operatives, and its ranks filled with namby-pamby, transsexual, blue-haired twits.

Well, whaddya expect from the 0bamanite, Leftist, America Hating poltroons that currently run the military?
The only reason that the nations that are enemies of America haven't fully invaded us in a 'hot war' is that they understand that our own 'leadership' is destroying our national defense capabilities even faster and more completely than their bombs and artillery can do.

The Arlington National Cemetery is run by the Army. The Army's ultimate commander is Sleepy, Creepy, Corrupt President in Name Only, Joe Biden with NoBama pulling his puppet strings. The Democraps are masters of projection. If they had gone to the cemetery to honor the fallen, they would have seen it mostly as a photo and political opportunity, so they thought President Trump going there had to be a photo and political opportunity. Such small minds and petty tyrants we have for our national "leaders".

The Demented Fuhrer, the Commander-In-Chief, may comment but he's entering the second week of his vacation.

War planning for the Pentagon has now become how to set Trump up for treason. That is 100% of their focus.

They rebuked him over an alleged altercation? So they didn't wait to have the things sorted out first and see whether the allegations were true?

Trump was there to meet with the families and video the event for the families who could not be there.
It was NOT a political event. It was a memorial event.
But Joey can use a video of himself in Arlington Cemetery for a political ad.

Thanks for sharing, Army. When I have time, I'll try to get around to giving a damn.

Gentlemen,
As a citizen of the United States of America, and technically one of your employers, I firmly salute you... With two middle fingers! Neither you nor your subordinates had any business interfering with Gold Star families who, if they had political motive, acted within their Rights under the Constitution you swore to protect and uphold. If they invited former President Trump, that is their business. If Kamala Harris or Joe Biden had objections they could have been there.
You are a disgrace to your ranks and uniforms. Your recent subjection of Social matters such as DEI, LGBTQ, Transgenderism, Global Warming and other matters are superfluous, nay HARMFUL to the mission of the military to protect this Nation. If you were MEN and not political hacks, you would resign, immediately.
Unfortunately, it appears We the People will have to drag you kicking and screaming like the vermin you resemble, and put you on trial for your actions and character while serving in the highest ranks of this nation's soldiers.
May God have mercy in your souls.

All articles relating to this alleged altercation say they are rebuking Trump. Trump himself was not involved in any altercation. Sounds like the issue was with the photographer. Why did the Arlington Cemetery immediately determine that the photographer was photographing/filming for political purposes? Do they do the same for all ceremonies where politicians are involved, or just because it was Trump? The Army should answer these questions before implicating itself in a politically biased hit job.

So long as "Affirmative Action" scum like Austin has any say, one cannot believe a damn thing coming from the Dept of the Army!

Sounds like the Biden-Harris appointed high mucky-mucks running the US Army these days by making that so-called statement supposedly rebuking Trump essentially got the Army involved in partisan politics. As they certainly would not have done that unless there were told to do that “wink-wink” by the Biden-Harris politburo ensconced in the White House.

Stop it. More evidence that the Dems are dumbing down our military. Doesn't Austin need some more work on his plumbing? What a dodo.

Yet they wonder why recruitment is in the toilet.
