Are you saying that Crooks was an Iranian asset?

It's becoming clear that Israel either has compromising Epstein-like info on Trump or has simply bribed him.


Nothing else makes sense.

I don't think he did.



He either makes it public or he doesn't. He probably tried to effect change privately and it didn't work, so this would be the next logical step,

Again, if you want the whistleblowers that we apparently desperately need in the bureaucratic state to step forward when they see something wrong you can't complain about this.

He's not. Trump appointed him. He was a Trump supporter, until now.

He's also a former Ranger who served 11 tours in the Iraq and Afghanistan.

If he feels like people will needlessly die for a cause we should not support how could he live with himself if he did not say something?

have you noticed how the supporters of this guy, and the general indirect supporters of Iran in all the Epic Fury threads never address this when posed. They just move on and pretend you didn't say it.

Kind of like those that support this guy but want to ignore the fact that his very public tantrum while resigning was wholly inappropriate.

Here's the thing.

He doesn’t set policy, the Executive does.

It's really very simple. He disagreed with the policy chosen by Trump. That's okay, apparently a lot of people do. He did the right thing in resigning. That's okay, too. He crossed a line taking it public.

This isn't whistleblowing, this is policy dispute.

They just think because he was in the military that he’s somehow infallible.

Trump drained another DC swamp rat. This is a good thing despite this boards complaining.

That is his opinion. Trump's opinion of whether or not he supports the cause is different. Only one of them is POTUS.
