Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Imagine helping to protect your country for 40 years, only to have a felon who is offended over the existence of people with any skin colour besides white take all that away from you. I predict that a white man will be offered to take Brown's place and will be far less qualified.
That's what all of this anti "DEI" (Diversity, Equity and Inclusion) is about, purging anyone who isn't a straight, able-bodied white male.
I see this in every thread. He was a felon when he was running. People voted for a felon. The American people wanted a criminal in the white house. The guy all previous generals who worked with him warned against. 77 million people are responsible for these firings, plus whatever many stayed home and didn't vote. His campaign promise was to replace everyone with loyalists.
I call for the dissolution of the secret ballot.
I want everyone to have to account to their vote to the country.
Careful. The Nazis may use this to decide you go to a camp in the future.
Who the fuck cares. Fuck the Nazis, I'm on paper saying as much and I'll fucking end as many as I can if they want to try me.
I agree with the person you respond with. I haven't voted for a Republican once and I'm very much here saying the people who didn't vote "because the democrats didn't give us a reason to" are as culpable... but I also live in a very red state and one of the few saving graces is in order to participate in the primaries one doesn't have to be registered to a party. Something I've avoided, but also something the state is trying to get rid of. I'm seriously considering registering Republican just to keep targets off my back.
Plus I think we may be passed elections anyways so those not "of the party" are likely to be targeted anyways.
I don't negotiate with, or knuckle under for terrorists.
But then you can purchase votes and/or be pressured by employers to vote their way.
His supporters are loud, proud idiots. We know who they are by their Facebook posts. They would use the open ballot to go after "the enemies".
It's not like the Trump voters are silently voting. They're load and clear?
*besides white and orange
This isn’t the problem here, it’s military leadership that may disobey him
Two things can be true. Remember the white supremacists he called "very fine people"? The "shithole countries"? Kamala Harris "turned black"? Remember when he claimed Haitian immigrants are eating cats and dogs?

One is much worse than the other
Americans have always been racist, they haven’t always been afraid of the military not following orders due to morality
And if you’ve seen what they have done that would really scare you from what’s coming
While I appreciate the cynicism around that truly absurd cliche “protecting their country,” there’s no credible evidence or even accusations linking either of these two individuals to war crimes, real or alleged.
