CRIME AGAINST TRUTH:
The Pentagon website that informs the public about the dead and wounded in different military conflicts removed four deaths from the war with Iran this week, showing that 14 service members have died, instead of the 18 who have been killed since the war began in February.
CRIME AGAINST MILITARY ETHICS:
President Donald Trump appointed Sean Parnell as the chief Pentagon spokesperson and Assistant to the Secretary of Defense for Public Affairs due to his military background, loyalty, and advocacy work. Trump praised him as a "fearless combat veteran" and an American patriot. Parnell was a vocal supporter of Trump's first term, received a Trump endorsement during his 2021 Pennsylvania U.S. Senate campaign, and campaigned closely with Trump.
CRIME AGAINST FOUR MORE VICTIMS OF TRUMP'S WAR:
Three service members killed in an Iranian missile attack at an air base in Jordan and One service member killed during the dismantling of a downed Iranian drone in northern Iraq.
What an insult!!!!
Their names:
1st Lt. Tyler James Feehan: Age 25, from Hawaii, assigned from Fort Bragg, North Carolina.
Pvt. Isabella Gonzales: Age 19, from Texas, assigned from Ansbach, Germany.
Sgt. Angel Rampersad: Age 28, from Ozone Park, New York, assigned from Ansbach, Germany.
Sgt. Michael Emmanuel Swinton.
Now, I'm going to say something many people will find crass. But, let me ask you... do you think ANY of these brave people who chose to defend our country give a FLYING F**K what casualty list they are on or not?!!!
By Trump removing them from the "death tally" of his Iran debacle for the sole purpose of having a lower body count is beyond ALL F**KING SENSES OF DIGNITY, HONOR and just a personal insult to them and their families.
You have to wonder what level of brain dead Trump is thinking 14 dead Americans is "forgivable" but 18 is acceptable??? One person is a tragedy in a war started with inaccurate intelligence, poor forethought, poor strategy... a war started by a deranged man pounding on his chest like a rabid ape.
As far as Trump is concerned, being a psychopath, dead people don't complain, they don't file law suits, they don't protest and post negatives... We see this as his ICE squads murder people because they "weaponize" their vehicles. Trump told law enforcers to "not be nice" to people... now people are dying.
APPRECIATION. Something this mindless boneheaded billionaire "great again'er" lacks. Someone who's had everything handed to him his entire life will never appreciate the sacrifices and pain people endure.
Four people lost their lives. Trump will probably get on TV and tell us "they supported his war".
No they did not. They supported the honor of following orders.
Unfortunately, these orders that got them killed came from a disgusting man who removed them from a list.
