I like the story, but it doesn’t mention the stupidity that got him caught. It _had_ to be stupidity, and I want to hear about it! ---

> [@EddyTeddyFreddy](#): > > Found unconscious? Still in the hospital? Wonder what’s up with that. Suicide attempt? Lymphoma getting the best of him? I’m betting he wasn’t getting the best of medical care for his pre-existing conditions on the run. Don’t get me wrong, I loathe all they stand for, but the reported treatment he received (not directed as far as I can tell, but part and parcel of the unbenign neglect that is our legal system) was also terrible. So, I’ll say it this way - I hope that he recovers, and as soon as they are healthy they are sentenced to the full requested time, plus more for efforts to flee, and spends it all in jail while getting a minimum of care that _should_ but is often not provided to our over-incarcerated population. ---

> [@Locrian](#): > > Damn,Milley! This is a dude I’d never fuck with. Let the MAGAts turn this one against Biden the Dictator. Probably already happened. 🙄 They don’t need to do that. The MAGAts think Milley is a traitor who should be tried and possibly executed for treasonous activities. You know, the GOP who likes to say they love the military. I used to wonder where the tipping point was. When would MAGAts go so far that they would start losing support. Supposedly when McCarthy was ramping up to go after all the Communist in the US Army that was the final straw, but that’s not happening here. While MAGATs have gone after individuals like McCain in the past, they’ve turned against the US military as a whole decrying it too woke to defend the nation. I’m no longer sure there’s a turning point for MAGAts. They’re all in and fully prepared to drive their flaming wagon right off the cliff. ---

Namely that wokeness run amok has already destroyed the very institution they belong to. And they’re fighting a sullen _sub rosa_ rear-guard action to turn that around, one Army Sergeant or USAF Captain at a time. ---

You know, the GOP who likes to say they love the military. They claim to love the rank and file military, and they claim they are being disserviced / damaged by their leadership, so they are helping them by attacking their leaders. It’s the same tactic they use with FBI agents and union workers. ---
