Navy Chief Fired After Opposing President Donald Trump On Navy SEAL | Velshi & Ruhle | MSNBC
Who would want to work with this guy now?
Pricilla Shivvers-Triplett Jeremy Backup LOL. Soros gave 32billion to Ukraine politicians. 12 billion to democrats and assets such as msm. This is not weird nor a conspiracy. The man and his “foundation” are banned in 7 countrys for influencing media outlets and politicians. But he call me a conspiracy theorist. I know that the media that has his fingerprints on it will tell you that. In the land of the blind its the one eyed man whos king.🤡🌎
Pricilla Shivvers-Triplett ps: ok boomer.

Bone spurs coward shouldn’t be able to say crap to the military!
Yeah but in this bizzor world this two bit con got elected./he’s a showman/carnavel barker and he’s FOWELLERS I don’t think they believe him BUT they lack the intelagence or just raciest. they don’t care or to ingnorant
Rob Dim Our last president traded terrorists for a deserter. I’ll take the current one.
Ice 247 You idiots parrot this, but never give examples
Rob Dim And who is commander in Chief?
Gallagher went from being a Navy SEAL, to a war criminal, to Trump’s shoeshine boy. They are both men without honor. And I promises you, Trump is going to start pimpin Gallagher out by dragging him up on stage at his rallies. Count on it.
Gallagher probably believes that Trump actually cares about him, which couldn’t be further from the truth. Trump is a sociopath and malignant narcissist–he cares for no one. The truth is that Trump didn’t pardon Gallagher out of the kindness of his heart, or because of some sense of right and wrong, Trump did it because he is going to use Gallagher the same way he uses everyone else–for his own benefit.
Semper Fi..
@Teddyp Haith Interesting tho how ALL photos of this feral savage MURDERING this teen kid with a butcher knife has been SCRUBBED from the internet…
Sam Steffen hey man , I don’t think anyone cares about what you have to say over and over again
I work with at risk veterans who have been chewed up and spat out. By far, they do not like Cadet Bonespurs at all. He is a cheap coward and a bully.
Mainely And the left wing uses the military as PAWNS. They voted for the Iraq war and then attacked the people fighting it in our behalf.
Dump has turned 🇺🇸 into a
World Wide joke & Laughing Stock 🤦
Can’t you just smell the jack booted ICE agents smashing in the doors and taking away daddy and mommy to a nice quiet concentration camp and baby gets to be abused by the paedophile freak Republicans! How many kids did Betsy DeVoss kidnap to work on her fuk’n yachts? Another benefit of voting for Trump in 2020!
Robert Allen. Don’t let it happen. Vote as if your life depends on it.
@Els Sinderdinck Because your life very well may depend upon it.
Jesus Christ The Most High God Our last president traded terrorists for a deserter. I’ll take the current one.
video is 4:20 long, yeah okay I’ll get my bong
The U.S.A. Is renaming itself, bizzaro world!!
Can we see more pictures of the “navy seal” as a bloodthirsty military asset?
Have you ever been in a village where a child has been hung or stoned to death because of Village Elders deemed they were Un-whatever.. Have you..
Sherman was right, total war…
MSNBC Apologize to Andrew Yang
It’s not hard if you have a brain.
Another red hatter gallerger causing himself trouble.
Here we have a man who has never fought for or served this country in ANY way thinking he can judge Gallagher better than his own military peers. Interfering in something he knows nothing about. Good leadership is crucial and soldiers rely on it. Poor leadership, lack of discipline and morals lead to nothing but distrust and chaos. That in itself will jeopardize every mission and endanger every soldier on it.
I have always felt (possibly an illusion) that American military service members are honorable citizens of the United States and adherents to the Geneva Convention, above base impulses.
Guess I am just too naive. Shame.
They are hiding something classified. A parallel story. If its a crazy story that’s usually the case.
Depending on who you y’all to he’s either destroying the country or making it great again, but isn’t that every president? Who is right? Everyone! Welcome to America.
By most the comments I see in here, almost none of you are aware of what ISIS was. Either that, or you are extremely mentally disturbed.
Nicely put. “Just because you can do something doesn’t mean you should do something “!
Guess it’s ok for our enemy to cut our soldiers heads off and drag and burn down a dirt road
Nope. Those are war crimes. Your point?
Our last president traded terrorists for a deserter. I’ll take the current one.
He is a thug…. read his rap sheet… Seals didn’t want to be near this guy…
