I saw these coming, thanks to the incredibly bad wording of Felon47’s mass pardon for his fellow traitors of 6 January 2021. (The link goes to Navy Times.)
The Justice Department has concluded that a military veteran’s presidential pardon for charges that he stormed the U.S. Capitol also extends to his separate conviction for illegally possessing stolen grenades and classified information, according to a court filing Tuesday.
Jeremy Brown, a 20-year veteran of the U.S. Army, was sentenced in April 2023 to seven years and three months in prison after a federal jury in Florida convicted him of weapons charges. Federal agents investigating Brown’s alleged role in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol were searching Brown’s home in Florida when they found stolen Army grenades, an unregistered rifle and a stolen classified document.
And, yes, there’s a reason I typed these above. From the same link:
The department reached the same conclusion in other cases in which a Capitol riot defendant was convicted of separate charges.
Prosecutors initially concluded that the pardon didn’t cover the discovery of firearms found at the Kentucky home of convicted Capitol rioter Daniel Edwin Wilson. But a court filing Tuesday in Washington, D.C., says they later received “further clarity” that the pardon covers Wilson’s separate conviction on firearms charges.
Investigators seized six guns and roughly 4,800 rounds of ammunition from Wilson’s home. He had prior felony convictions that made it illegal for him to possess firearms.
Navy Times also has this story showing how much this We need a new word. Clusterfuck no longer has the oomph needed to describe this.
just looooooves the military.
Some federally employed military spouses are still grappling with uncertainty in their careers, as agencies aren’t consistently exempting them from the return-to-office mandate for federal workers, according to advocates and lawmakers.
And lawmakers are demanding immediate action to make the exemption clear to federal agencies.

OPM’s guidance has led to agencies treating military spouses differently, creating a “have and have-not” situation, said Emmalee Gruesen, a Navy wife and Navy civilian employee who volunteers as an advocate for federally employed military spouses. Gruesen lives in Charlottesville, Virginia, where she works remotely for a Navy office in Norfolk and co-runs a Facebook page for federally employed spouses.
Moreover, some spouses are being treated differently within their own agencies, according to Gruesen. In one instance, a military spouse working for an Air Force command received a telework exemption. Meanwhile, another spouse, teleworking for a different team in the same command, was denied the exemption, Gruesen said.
Despite sharing the same human resources team and command, the spouses’ teams interpreted the policy differently, according to Gruesen. The exempt spouse raised concerns that the other spouse “wasn’t getting equal treatment” and was “chastised,” Gruesen said.
We need a new word. Clusterfuck no longer has the oomph needed to describe this mis/maladministration.
