So on a scale of hosed to they’ve gone to plaid hosed...how hosed are these 25 people?

This makes me wonder if there might eventually be a crackdown on the insane, violent chud talk that service members openly get up to on Facebook and other sites:

quote:

The Pentagon also has been asked to review all members who will be a part of the security detail for next week's inauguration ceremony to ensure the are "not sympathetic to domestic terrorists," Crow said.

It was already amped up under Trump, who was actively stoking extremism. What's it going to look like when a democrat takes office, a minority is VPOTUS, and Trump is still talking poo poo from the sidelines from whatever outlet he can find?

So for 14/3. I know to remove the disabilities it’s 2/3 majority, but how many votes are required to actually expel a member? Either under that section or just under normal house rules?

"Each House may determine the Rules of its Proceedings, punish its Members for disorderly Behaviour, and, with the Concurrence of two thirds, expel a Member."

So 290 or 67 depending on the chamber.

Pretty unlikely to succeed then right? I mean they should still do it but between the decorum obsessed Dems and Republicans protecting their own it seems like a long shot.

Thanks, I figured it was a hell of a lot easier to do during the civil war (members not showing up and all). Honestly I really need to read a book on Congress during the Civil War, along with Lincoln and Civil Liberties (which I have a title or two to check out), they’re two really fascinating things that areas that often get footnoted.

I could see a few super egregious members getting it...or more likely being heavily encouraged to resign. Censure I think is far more likely. Of course watch those idiots be proud of it.

There’s an officer I sent info for to CI and FBI. She’s being kicked out already, but she paid for two buses of rioters to the capitol then openly challenged the NC AG on her support for the insurrection calling him a corrupt nazi.

I hope Jace1 posts there. His amounts tend to start at 4 figures and go up from there. The football crowd is largely in the tens to hundreds range.

You can report to Army CI through 1-800-call spy, iSalute on AKO, or stopping in your friendly Army CI field office; however, most of these chuds won't fall underneath Army CI jurisdiction. There needs to be a foreign nexus for Army CI to get truly involved, now that doesn't mean nothing will happen with it, they'll have to pass the info off to CID or the MPs.

I guess I’m being a jerk because I have relatives who have changed into radical trump supporters from normal people in the last five years.

It’s sad to think about how fast they turned into just utterly horrible people (or at the very felt comfortable being themselves).

The conservative media sphere (especially Facebook and to a slightly lesser extent other social media) is insanely corrosive. Any person consistently exposed to it who doesn't see it as evil is going to turn into an insane rear end in a top hat eventually. It's a cooperative brainwashing machine.

It's really weird, I've seen people go from "everyone is really a decent person!" to "Muslims are killing us all and antifa is a chinese invention" in like 2 years. Hyper feedback loop.

We call the people who do that in the UK that I've seen alot of "the cosmic right", old hippies that suddenly go turbo mental. Me and my partner have lost many friends to that poo poo at this point. Only thing I can think of is they were basically like that in the first place, just never got tested.

I knew a CI agent from my time at Bragg. I also know a CI agent at my current station. I put requests in at both Bragg, where she is stationed and where I am at now. Luckily about 8 or 9 other officers did the same. Hopefully she spends some time in Leavenworth.

A large amount of the population, probably the majority, maybe even the vast majority, will be molded by a constant narrative push as long as they are even slightly predisposed to the message in the first place. They'll start off on the edge and sink deeper and deeper until they're full cultist.

Could've just said "Southern Pines", no other context needed. I have family not too far from there who seem to be convinced that dropping racial slurs is a fun and rewarding hobby.
