I Triggered Another Federal Investigation

The Army’s keystone cops are on the case

@w7voa "Brownshirts, of course, is not the right word. Many in the military who are on the ground in Los Angeles think that ICE and others from homeland security dressing up in Army green and using armored vehicles on the streets of an American city undermines the reputation of the armed forces. At least in the field, they don’t want to be part of any Trump crusade, and are hesitant about being mixed in theatrical shows of force, which the MacArthur Park operation was. "

Lolz, as the old joke goes, re "a game of telephone, getting passed down along the chain subordinate to subordinate. The garbled culmination of this particular order..."

Order: "Send for reinforcements. We're going to advance."

Final: "Send for three and fourpence. We're going to a dance."

@w7voa

I'd boost this post if it didn't link to Substack. It sounds interesting, but not enough to justify supporting a place that platforms fascists. Just saying.

@w7voa I love the "another". "so on monday I hung out with a friend, on Tuesday I reported, and on Wednesday I triggered ANOTHER federal investigation...how's your week been?"
@w7voa kinda hard to expect secrecy from soldiers who really don't want to be there I guess
