Elite Members Of U.S. Military Share Misinformation In Secret Facebook Groups | Stephanie Ruhle
Disparaging your boss on social media will get you fired almost anywhere. I can’t imagine that’s going to end well for these soldiers if the military command becomes aware of their posts.
@Edward L. So your tactic is let’s talk about somebody else that’s doing wrong? And the cry of defund the police was ment to reallocate some of the money for a different kind of training. Even though I don’t necessarily agree with that. And then to the capitalism statement. People are allowed to be against capitalism is their choice. And people are allowed to be for capitalism is their choice. But I do have to say if Republicans claim to be the Christian party and we’re supposed to model after Jesus christ. Who was absolutely 100% a socialist. How could this be? It doesn’t make sense
@David Gray sounds like you shouldn’t be speaking at all.
@Sanction This sanction my 🌰s.
@Lisa Ortiz America looks real great in off the radar joes hands 👌
@J C 🤣🤣 Still moving the goal posts? Game is over, son.
“Secret Facebook Group” nothing is secret. Everything can and has been tapped into to a degree
EXPOSE MSNBC
@Dave Byrne the sad part is people believe him, because lying is the norm now smdh
@Nipple Journalist Nah, Facebook knows what you did last summer, what your paper love letter says, and what you dreamt about last night. Also, your next dinner menu selection..
And they would have been well aware of that risk, so… Could this be fake news? Could they have been baiting potential terrorists to uncover covert, clandestine, or subversive plans?
@Yer_Br0wn_Dog_8_My_Rabbit in that case they should know about my tendencies of kidnapping people and forcing them to play yatzee for weeks on end.
THESE CATS TURN ON GOVERNMENT ITS A WRAP
@Brad John If you support Q you do NOT support the constitution of the USA. Its not possible.
@B Basen That’s a laugher!!!!!!! you pity me while demanding we pity you because of your skin tone! What a little joker you are! Goodbye for tonight, I’m headed into my woods to do things, enjoy your craphole city!
A wrap for who the so called special forces?? The politician along with the church or religious leaders. Are the biggest baddest gangsters in the world. Believing other wise is foolish. How did the USA special forces work out against the Taliban? Taliban is stronger now then it ever was in it’s history of it’s existence.
@Cameron James One style dictator aka demiGod,, attack on the free press, attack on the established institutions. Yeah that’s Trump an the Republican party along with white supremacists morons. We all know what facist, bigoted, racist ideology looks like bud.
@B Basen who says I support q?
They been there for years!!! It’s just now you noticed!!!
@Cat Magic don’t worry so much. Dementia joe said he has a plan 🙂
@Cat Magic You learned a new word… I am so proud of you… Guess the mean old whites are not treating you like you demand… So you don’t think the word racist is a platitude? Childish to think other people are going to hate like your kind do…
@David Silvercreek Nonsense there are many forms of government that work. And who really need all the crap we have. We don’t even talk face to face with people anymore. You act like basing your society on gambling is a good thing. At first it worked because it was a rich mans game but now people sell there mothers pensions on the market, and 401ks replaced social security. Now peoples grandmas are virtually traded down the road and everything rides on making a shiesty deal. Im surprised, Native folks usually think gambling is a bad thing even though there are a lot of casinos now.
@Cat Magic Yes, we need to do more and the land needs to be improved, we keep wrecking it.
@Scott Parr WOW, name one place where socialism has worked… Please don’t say in Scandinavian countries for they have always been capitalist with a few social programs… So a man gets rich and that affects you how? Did you sell your mothers pension? Didn’t know you could but you should be ashamed of yourself…. You must be way below average and know you can’t make it on your own… I gambled after the Navy and created 2 companies… I had faith in me and made it in the white mans world….

You got what you were searching for. Imagine if you found something you werent looking for, like Pyramid shaped UFO’s. Stay off off Facebook – Total Mind Control & Tik Tok. Time I will never fet back!
The legislators play hanky-panky as they goof off and argue…while the truth is suffering like our infrastructure, and cyber security.
The fact that you bring up infrastructure is a good sign you have been brainwashed. It wasn’t a problem to you until you were told it’s a problem. You aren’t hurting, from infrastructure, you’re hurting from brainwashing.
@Crispin Fornoff No soap in my gray matter, where I live it’s quite apparent, maybe it’s different for you. That’s good if it is. We should all know where our laundry soap comes from.
@Sproo Town then maybe your town should pay for the infrastructure instead of the tax payers in well run places.
@Crispin Fornoff OK comrade
if they know it in fb, it ain’t secret!
There are groups that are by invitation only, and if you aren’t a member, you can’t see the content. Perhaps that is what they mean.
WhatsApp is owned by facebook. And each chat line is encrypted
🙄
The ranks have always discriminated
😂😂😂😂😂😂
oh ok, so whats it called when the media does it?
EXACTLY!
Debbie Did you watch out of the shadows where they have the cia on tape saying they pay the media to make up stories? Now China is paying them for them to subtly show support for China. They did that by saying racism against Asians, so that they can quietly try to lead China in.
@Just Whatever Just go back to eating your crayons. Let the grownups take it from here. Neurotic noob.
I always said Facebook should be shut down
Yes, please. ASAP. Stat!
No. It’s a way to monitor these donkeys. Otherwise they will slip further underground.
@Blue Patriot I was going to say yes, soon, but no. You’re right. As much as I hate F*ckbook.
Special Forces are Green Berets, all other specialized units associated with SOCOM are special operations. Just putting that out there lady.
Thanks for the info, but honestly, you can’t expect us civilians to be able to remember that. Especially in the age of Covid plus Netflix, where we all are rotting our minds! LOL! 😊✌
@Cat Magic lol understandable, it was more for the lady who was reporting information that was incorrect. Its a nitpick, but military folks take their titles seriously as you wear them with honor
@Lucid OK. I see. And so you should. My dad fought in WW2, and though he’s gone I’m VERY proud of him. Every Remembrance Day, Nov 11 here in Canada, I would get just choked up with tears over it. Proud of all of the people from that generation that contributed. And every year there were fewer and fewer of them. I doubt any are left now. My dad would be 101 in 2021. But I still go to services sometimes, to honor him, and the later service members. And still get choked over the bravery it takes to be willing to fight for your country. It’s not something we civilians should take lightly, and most don’t. The turn outs at services here are still very high! All the best. ✌
@Cat Magic Thank you for sharing, definitely one of the greatest generations that have lived, you too
I see that Jack Murphy likes to keep that bottle right behind his desk
What’s disturbing is the complete radicalization of our schools.
👏👏👏
Oh please! Gimme a break!
Bubble head bleach blonde comes on at 5, tell you bout the train crash, with a gleam in her eye……
It’s interesting when people die…
Something tells me this group is comprised of mostly rejects, I highly doubt a single one of them are active duty.
FREE SPEECH. Carol Lee should be glad that these Elite warriors to defend America.
Remember folks… BOTS can influence these thumbs scores or brigadier so which side you are on sometimes it is not a fair or accurate score.
