If you grow up in a military family, like I did, you don't just learn the rank structure or how to fold a flag. You grow up with an inherent respect for duty, service, and the rules that govern both. One of the biggest rules? Keep your politics to yourself when you're in uniform. So when the story broke this week about the 821st Space Base Group commander at Pituffik Space Base in Greenland being relieved of duty after a snarky, partisan email targeting U.S. Vice President JD Vance, I wasn’t surprised. I was disgusted. Colonel Susan Meyers, in a wildly inappropriate and insubordinate move, decided to flex her self-righteousness

Comments:

I also grew up in a military family. My father then went on to work for the FAA. He was always very careful about what he said and did to make sure that his political beliefs were nowhere in sight.

If she didn't get fired for the email contents, she got fired for lack of intelligence.

Military chain of command has no place for ‘activists’. If she thinks she can wear a pink ****** hat or carry a silly sign, she may as well jump ship now.

Vance went to Greenland to poop on her floor. I can see how she would want to smooth some ruffled feathers and get the stink out of the room.

She could have been court martialed under Sec 88, 92, 94, and 95 of the UCMJ. Of course, her career is over. She'll most likely end her career and the same rank she is now. The only possible worse place to serve would be Nome, Alaska. Let's hope she's headed there!

I would think that a good journalist would have at least provided a link to the contents of that email. I'm not defending her action, but I'd like to know what it was that she wrote. Isn't it govt property and therefore should be available to us?

Three subjects that cannot be discussed in a Navy officer Ward Rooms are politic, women, and religion. Also, it is against the law to wear a military uniform to political rallies.

There was no luck involved. Someone lacked the backbone to drop her a grade or two, or more. The article does a good job of describing the email. It was all snark. It was boldly published it to everyone; including the Danes. President Trump is battling with the Danes on a matter of vital importance to our national security. She gave them aid and comfort. If it haven't read it , it's worth the effort. I think that VP Vance's speech was one President Trump wanted delivered. She embarrassed our Country, the CINC and the VP on an international platform. There are several punishments available, such as demotion, fired, brig time, loss of benefits. A simple reassignment doesn't fit the crime. It bothers me how the COL acted without fear. Who does she know that she was comfortable in taking this step? I doubt there has ever been a case like this. To see a bird yank the rug out from under the supreme command boggles the mind.

The North Carolina Supreme Court has ruled that over 5,000 overseas ballots must be cured before they can be counted in a move that is likely to overturn the November 2024 election of Democrat Allison Riggs. Riggs was initially "elected" to the state's Supreme Court after the ballots in question were counted despite the identifications of the voters never being verified per state law. While another 60,000+ votes that were also disputed due to incomplete registrations were ruled to be eligible, the group of 5,000+ ballots that now must be cured could prove decisive.

I know it seems like the sky is falling regarding air travel. We have naked women all over the place, helicopters falling apart, and planes either catching fire or crashing. Ever since the tragic crash at Reagan National Airport in January, the media have been hyper-aware of any little aviation incident. And, of course, the Left is trying to blame Donald Trump. Yesterday, there was a tragic crash in Boca Raton, Florida (via NBC 6 South Florida): A small plane crashed in a ball of flames in Boca Raton Friday morning, killing the three people on board
The Time Is Now to Refill America's Emergency
Oil Reserve

America stands at a pivotal crossroads in energy policy and national security. With oil prices hitting their lowest level in four years and global tensions escalating in the Taiwan Strait, we are staring down a golden opportunity that must not be wasted: refilling our Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR). Let’s be clear about how we got here. Former President Joe Biden drained our emergency oil reserve at a historic pace, cutting the supply in half. The SPR—meant to be our energy insurance policy in times of true crisis—was treated like a political slush fund to bring gas prices down from their historic highs before the 2022 midterms.

Why did Hillary’s legal team meet with the first instigator of the fake Russia Collusion operation aimed to destroy Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign for president? That previous sentence might be your answer. But let’s look at the possibilities. The revelation of this meeting—a defensive briefing—was discovered in the document release from the made-up Russia! Russia! Russia! Collusion hoax. As you know by now, the Democrats, mediacrats, and the intelligence community came together and were conducted like a symphony by, we now know, Hillary’s team, President Obama and his intelligence leaders, Hillary’s team of attorneys, and disgraced FBI Director James Comey.

The details that have been revealed thus far are extremely sparse. Fox 5 Atlanta reported Friday that the FBI had revealed that “a Georgia man” had been arrested for making threats against Donald Trump and Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard. That’s almost all we know at this point, but there is one other salient detail that raises a number of other questions about this case. Fox 5 Atlanta noted that “Aliakbar Mohammed Amin, 25, of Lilburn, was taken into custody Friday by FBI agents based in Atlanta.” The feds’ Atlanta office posted on X: “Today, #FBI Atlanta arrested 25 year old, Aliakbar Mohammed Amin of Lilburn, GA for threatening communications

The judiciary’s assault on executive power has once again reared its ugly head. A Bush-appointed federal judge just handed Maine's radical leftist government a major victory in its crusade to destroy women's sports. U.S. District Judge John A. Woodcock ordered the Trump administration to unfreeze federal education funding that was withheld after the state brazenly defied Trump’s executive order protecting women's sports from the radical transgender agenda. Make no mistake about it, this is a direct challenge to President Trump's efforts to preserve fair competition and protect female athletes. The administration had rightfully frozen funding after Maine refused to comply with basic Title IX protections

It’s not limited to Democrats, Republicans or Independents. It’s not limited to urban or rural. We know for a fact if we look back just at his last administration, what it did to the soybean farmers, right. And we ultimately ended up having to give them money to supplant the fact that they lost so much money.

The latest: Government watchdog OpenTheBooks found that the feds spent an eye-popping $4.6 billion on new furniture and decorations for government buildings since October 2020, even though only half the federal workforce was consistently showing up for work in person as of last year. In 2023, the Government Accountability Office found that 17 of 24 federal agencies used 25% or less of their headquarters’ buildings.

In 2023, woke Bud Light Vice-President of Marketing Alissa Heinerscheid made a disastrous decision that canned her career and coined a new phrase for destroying a brand. No one wants to be the next “Bud Light.” Heinerscheid greenlighted a partnership with a transgender influencer, Dylan Mulvaney, that led to massive pushback from the public and a widespread boycott that cost the company, by some estimates, a staggering $1.4 billion. After a leave of absence, Heinerscheid was out at the company. Heinerscheid appears to have recently updated her LinkedIn profile, announcing a new role, Team Business Operations, at the Saudi-funded LIV Golf.

Tehran has played this game before: Agree to talks. Make vague promises. Extract sanctions relief. Then quietly continue nuclear development under the radar. This formula has worked for more than two decades. Right now, the only reason Iran is talking is to stall, to promise just enough to prevent America from striking it -- "We are almost there!" -- to keep its regime and avoid seeing its uranium centrifuges and enrichment sites blasted to rubble. The regime does not want war -- but it also cannot accept total nuclear disarmament.

What looked like the Green Movement’s unstoppable momentum has stalled out recently, as Americans rethink the costs of some of the more draconian proposals to rid the world of industrial carbon dioxide. As skepticism grows, the movement to slash CO2 at all costs also may be nearing an end, the latest I&I/TIPP Poll shows. Americans have become increasingly wary of the “net zero” and other modern-day green movements after so many of their doom-filled prophecies of imminent environmental disaster failed to come true.

CNN data analyst Harry Enten did a report this week in which he was stunned to reveal that the Republican party is replacing the Democrats as the party of the working class and the party that cares more about average Americans. This shift has been building for years but became especially apparent during the 2024 election, as Donald Trump made huge gains among average Americans of every color and ethnicity. The Democrats have made their problem worse by defending the radicals that Trump is trying to deport. Democrats have also become fierce defenders of Wall Street in recent weeks as the debate about tariffs has unfolded.

1. President Donald Trump's so-called "trade war." Many call the American effort to obtain either tariff parity or a reduction in the roughly $1 trillion trade deficit and 50 years of consecutive trade deficits a "trade war." But then what do they call the policies of the past half-century by Europe, Asia, China, and others to ensure asymmetrical tariffs, pseudo-health and security trade restrictions, and large surpluses? A trade peace? Trade fairness? 2. Do nations prefer surpluses or deficits? Why do most nations prefer trade surpluses and protective tariffs? Are Europe, Asia, China, and others stupid? Are they suicidal in continuing their trade surpluses and protective or asymmetrical tariffs?
