Because Congress has zero balls to do anything against a govt official but has no problem targeting regular citizens.

Because our nation is completely and utterly corrupted.
And its not even really about party, although it seems like only a tiny amount of left leaning people are willing to admit it compared to the right.

It just dawned on me how similar Benghazi debacle was to Mogadishu Black Hawk Down. One happened on Hillary's watch while the other was on Bill Clinton time.

Crazy how similar both events blew up out of nowhere at a time the Clinton's needed some media and political distraction.

I’ve watched that movie a half dozen or more times. I’m ready for it again.

It infuriates me every time. I want people to be held accountable. I’m still waiting, and still hopeful.

If not in this lifetime, maybe the next one?

It will never happen, and history will repeat itself over and over. See Afghanistan withdrawal.

We had the proper infrastructure in place at Bagram AFB to do a safe and proper withdrawal but we said frick it who cares

ShawRyan Shown just had an agency woman on who wrote a book on Benghazi and shared some interesting background from the IC perspective - she’s still hunting the leaders of the attack. Great listen.

Both sides are working together. It's scary they still have some people convinced that they are fighting against each other

I don't agree with you on most things, but I do on this one.

Bunker mentality.

But hey, you’re a leftist. You appear to acknowledge the US gvt is significantly corrupted?

I do . I was there when MV C-Endeavour, belonging to Edison Chouest Offshore was attacked off the coast of Nigeria and 3 people were kidnapped. Lots of coordination between State Dept, Intelligence agencies and pentagon.

While watching that movie i was literally steaming knowing that Hillary left all those people fighting for theirs lives and no fuqs were given. I wish they would have thrown some rope over a oak tree limb and hung her and everyone responsible for that absolutely failure of leadership.

you confuse my hatred of the right with support for the left. I hate both, the left just gets no support on this site so I don't have to tell people how much they suck, everyone here already knows.

Well IRL my peers/fam consider me right but I’m actually anti-Left than pro right.
Many conservative principles are vital. Others aren’t.
Most liberal principles are garbage. Some are toxic. A few are good.

honestly, I think a good balance is right control mostly with some consistent left (mostly minority) influence. Things get funky when either side gets too strong.

What's worse is the operators, the surviving ones, were threatened with the arrest if they spoke about what happened

So you do realize that your left leaning self can turn on pretty much any news on major networks like ABC,NBC, CBS, etc. (the free shite)not cable and listen to all your MSM left leaning propaganda right? Trump is evil, January 6th, Biden likes ice cream, etc. Nothing bad about the worst president and vice president ever. This country is in a downward spiral and nothing bad is hardly ever spoken about this on MSM. If you are too blind to see then GTFO off this site because there are not too many people like us where we can speak without the liberal loonies.
