In an extraordinary move, the Pentagon chief "fired" the Navy secretary for going outside his chain of command by proposing a "secret agreement with the White House," according to a senior defense official. The agreement that led to Defense Secretary Mark Esper forcing Navy Secretary Richard Spencer's resignation involved the case of Navy SEAL Eddie Gallagher.

This country is going to pot. I have never seen anyone as bad as this leader.
@Eric Ryan You accused him of being hate filled yet you just displayed nothing but hatred in your message. Dems couldn’t be any more stupid than this..
@Donald Trump Trump is at best a middling businessman, more like a string of failures held together by loans, but he is completely unqualified, though he may be authorized, to run our country. We’ll see how and when we can start fixing the tremendous damage he’s done by his sheer ineptness, much less his corrupt intentions at every turn. You guys all think cuz the stock market went up and you got a short term tax break that he’s a friggin god. The only thing I can say us that you are even dumber than he is.
@Jiri Stach and I bet you say being intolerant of intolerance is wrong. go to bed dingbat.
USA is doing just fine so enjoy the ride..
impeach the treasonous peach!
@Nullion Chinzako I guess if anything you say is right, he’ll be impeached within the month, right? Or before his next term?
I mean, it’d be bad if you were being brainwashed by fake news and believed he was going to be impeached for the last 3+ years of your life, wouldn’t it? That’d be crazy.
Even if he is impeached in the House, the Senate won’t convict him. He’ll win re-election in 2020. Prepare for 4 more years.
@Southern Fun Says the dumptruck that believes any day now there will be a ‘mass arrest’ of the ‘ebil leffis’. I don’t think impeachment not happening means what you think it means. I understand conservatives think in very simplistic, often too simplistic, of terms and abhor facts and research – but he has done impeachable things; multiple in fact.
I know you love him, think he is your god or whatever reincarnated, but he has demonstrably used charities as fronts to fund his campaign, he has demonstrably asked foreign powers to help him stay in power in the US and to investigate his enemies, and many more.
@Southern Fun The house is already moving on to the vote. Expect it before January, if not December.
Nobody believed he was /about/ to be impeached for the past 3 years, because nobody was conducting any impeachment hearings.
Now? When the evidence is so damning, and when there’s actual impeachment hearings going on? Yeah, I can say we, the majority of the nation who believe he should be removed from office, are quite confident he’ll be impeached.
@Nullion Chinzako Evidence is so damning….you must exclusively watch CNN. Support for impeachment has been plummeting since it became public. Conjecture isn’t evidence. The republicans can use this to call some of their own witness’s though. Would be worth it just to have Schiff, Hunter, Caiamella ect to have to testify. All of those ambassadors thought it was inappropriate but none of them accused the president of or claimed to have any evidence of bribery. They will impeach him on obstruction and maybe contempt of congress. They will frame it around bribery. This will go nowhere and keep most of your presidential nominees in Washington.
This administration is a Crime Infested Den.
@Jon Hoef Yup “fake news” people are starting to feel like https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&sxsrf=ACYBGNS1Wj2JK2zK_qBLTYfV3mUBn-pwBQ:1574650328328&q=flat+earthers&spell=1&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjkktzLrYTmAhXqYt8KHfVuBlUQBSgAegQIEhAn&biw=1680&bih=917
You can show these people pictures from space and they will call them “fake”
Ok Trump was nice enough to back this Chief, not one soul from his chain did. Shame on the chief’s mess, it took the President to come all the way down almost to the lowest level of the chain to save him. It’s unusual but Trump has my vote. He did more for the military than the previous POTUS ever done
When CNN troll boys are triggered you know Trump did the right thing.
@John Smith the guy killed women and children in cold blood according to the rest of his squad.
lol but yeh what rudy did wasn’t ouside of the chain of command
That’s right. Everything was approved by Putin.
Rudy isn’t even IN the chain of command. Unless you mean he’s helping Putin bugger Rump
OMG you guys are idiots
“Just remember what you are seeing & hearing is not whats happening.” DJtRump quote
@NMR Go eat a book mate.
There’s something pretty similar to that in 1984.
Black Conservative Patriot News
CNN Finally admits President Trump was telling the truth !!
https://youtu.be/fPhJgqsu_Hs
Let us know when CNN gets the story right.
And never forget this. To me these day are the saddest since my memories of the day JFK was shot. We have lost a president, in my view, if we impeach him, convict him, or not, or even if he stays in office.
Does any good news ever come out of this White House?
@Eric Rosario but yet here u are
@Kyuss Qotsa Funny you mention others think they are on the high ground when you’re the one throwing insults and name calling. Irony.
@Dicky Jones LMAO love how everyone goes around saying “fake new” with nothing to back it anyone can call something “fake”
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modern_flat_Earth_societies
You can show these people a picture from space and they will call it “fake” are you a flat earth?
@Doom2exe
Fake news is what you have been receiving and believing from that snake Schiff.
Not one believable fact from him but you eat every idiotic word that comes out of his mouth.
Look in the mirror, your the flat earth believer.
Not when you watch the corp. media propaganda channels
….and Republicans say nothing. WTF?
@Richard Hunt Navy’s been beating Army more times than not. Much to my dad’s happiness 😀 I’ve had friends in every branch and a great Grandfather who was an Army Doctor in WW1 in the trenches. Seeing my Dad and Grandfather though in Navy Flight suits during WW2 and Vietnam, I bleed Navy(I grew up at NAS Pt. Mugu all through the 80’s).
Why do you care about spencer. Are you related to him?
@Charlie Gomez Maybe you’re American ?
I doubt it!!
@Richard Hunt im more of American than you homie. Demoshits & libs are not Americans or human to me.
another DEEP STATE RAT in the MILITARY has been flushed out… GOOD RIDDANCE to that LIBTARD HOLDOVER NAVY SECRETARY… TRUMP WINS AGAIN.
This is scary on so many levels. I fear for us.
@Steve Dettmann.I DO VOTE,AND
NOT FOR trump!!!
THAT’S WHY WE VOTE EVERY 4 YEARS, SO THAT WAY WE CAN ALWAYS GET RID OF FOOLS LIKE TRUMP IN THE NEXT ELECTION BUT THAT DOESN’T HAPPEN BY HIDING FROM LIFE OR THE VOTING BALLOTS EITHER!!🇺🇸💯💪🆗✌😂😂😂
@Anthony H *MUTE!!🆗👿👋👋✌😂😂😂*
@O SNOOPY SNOOP COLEMAN And what happens should they secure enough power from the police and military to ….well not leave?
Space cadet Donnie bone spurs with many bought deferments knows what honour is or war crimes? Did he decide this while humping hookers or ogling his daughter wife?
@Whispering Whiskers misuse of classified info? On a private server? You mean like Ivanka Trump did? Or Mike pence when he was governor? Oh yeah, it doesn’t matter now does it? Ivanka used her personal email and phone while handling classified gov information… The EXACT thing that t bag cried about during the election. Double standards much?
Get that TDS looked at. You dont want to suffer another 5 years.
@xcynicalreasonsx Secretary of State, deleting 33,000 emails, lying to the FBI, running a pay to play scheme through the Clinton Foundation… Try and keep up.
@xcynicalreasonsx that’s not true. All her record were reviewed. Did you miss that part? No classified information.
You have proof? No you don’t. Obama served in the Kenyan navy. I don’t have proof either.
He is currupting the entire US
You can’t even spell properly.
@Dicky Jones CNN probably taught them to spell
@Lanse1984 your name suggests you have read 1984, but you should probably read it again.
For somebody that doesn’t know a stitch about The Armed services; Why keep sticking your nose in!
@H. G. Wells if Obama did what trump did and ignored a military decision you would call Obama a traitor to his country for his actions. The military personnel understand discipline as it’s the glue which keeps them together. They were for trump and now many feel insulted and may not support him in the future.
Trump is president and he calls the shots little boy.
Because fucker runs around like a headless chicken…and has about as much brainpower as a headless chicken….
Trump did go to military school. So he knows. He is doing what is wanted… destroying government
Now Trump is splitting up the military , who’s next. ?
@Cobra Commander I know you didn’t.. but you seem to dismiss the article because it appeared in a “left leaning” site. Anyway.. much nicer to engage with a real person with a profile. (Rather than name / empty page) Is there a source you find reliable.? If it said the Jav’s are kept away from the Donbas… you might reconsider. Who do you trust for news. Apparently, not Fox.
@donofon101 I dont trust any news with talking about intentions of military weaponry. They can only assume. Yes , I’ve listened to Fox, as well as CNN, and other news sources. But it irks me when people “media” pretend to have a clue about military intentions and uses. They cant even get the definition of * what an automatic weapon is…lol Sorry, I follow my own analysis of intentions of military actions after reading from any news source. I will get random headlines and I’ll read it from anywhere.
Thats a stupid comment even for a libtard.
@Captain Teamwork THEY DON’T CALL CNN VIEWERS CULT MEMBERS OR FAKE NEWS OR SAY THAT THEY’RE LYIN’ ESPECIALLY WHEN YOUR AZZ IS HERE TOO!! THAT WOULD BE LIKE ME WATCHIN’ FOX FAKE NEWS & THEN BITCHIN’ & COMPLAIN’ ABOUT HOW FAKE FOX NEWS IS, TO ME THAT’S BEIN’ DUMB AS F*CK & I PERSONALLY HATE *STUPIDITY BUT I 👀 SEE THAT IT’S KOOL WIT’ YOU HUH!!🆗✊😎💯💪✌😂😂😂*
Overall, we rate Crooks and Liars strongly Left Biased based on story selection and editorial positions that almost always favor Liberal causes. We also rate them Mostly Factual in reporting due to reasonable sourcing and fact check record. However, due to the use of sensational headlines and loaded wording, as well as not strictly adhering to the consensus of science with GMO’s, we cannot rate them High for factual reporting.
Detailed Reporting
Factual Reporting: MOSTLY FACTUAL@Cobra Commander
Like I said; this administration is corrupting every institution in the U. S. A.!!!!
Nah, it’s just exposing what these institutions were always about
@Eve Hawk Im serious, present me facts! I have a strong suspicion that progressives and most people on the left are under some weird kind of haze of misinformation. They spin everything, and the hypocrisy alone is so obvious to an outsider but they seem so blind to it. The discourse normally ends with them attacking my character and blaming Trump blindly.
He’s their boss.
Stay in school.
@Dicky Jones Anyone can call something “fake” with nothing to back it up. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modern_flat_Earth_societies
You can show these people a picture from space and they will call it “fake”.
@Dicky Jones ok comrad, good job spreading bullshit tovarisch!!!
How long will it be before Donnie says he could’ve been a Seal if he wanted too
He could have been your dad if he wanted to….
He coulda been Trayvon martins dad
@csmith286 nice one I was going to put that,
Only by becoming president did become the CO of the SEALs. Wants to be a 🦁 but is a 🦃.
Get back on your meds psycho boy.
He is building his own army who will obey him when needed
@Whispering Whiskers military does tend to vote republican, that is a well documented fact.
@Noneya Bizz
Actually no. Military leadership is also (and primarily) beholden to the Constitution.
@Whispering Whiskers
Why would I google to watch people crying?
I’d rather watch “badass trumpsupporters” getting beat up by by “liberal pussies”and hiding behind the cops!
@Daniel Blain I’ll turn on the web cam & you can watch
@Marshal Giggleman you have no idea what your talking about. Our military are not racists and I believe more of the military support Trump than dont. Did you serve in the military at all? Where are you getting your information from or are you one of those liberal left wing idiots that never served in the military but yet believes everything your spoon fed from the liberal media? We are all one people and should stop the divisiveness that is separating us as Americans. We all want it to be better and we have to work together to get it done.
Truly thee white house has always been a damn “”CRIMINAL HOUSE”” (I endorse this message)☑✅
Read what the people around Gallagher said he done.
This emboldens not only the murderer and those like him, but could also cause real serious problems to the military as a whole.
And that is you expert opinion from mom’s basement.
How many times have you been to war Mr. Anderson?
And backing the president costs another lifelong government employee their career and dignity
It seems the bureaucrats want to get fired so its okay.
Sounds like the guy cost himself his career.
The World is Watching and Asking, What’s in is Going on in Washington.
Yeah Im sure Mongolia and Sweden are torn up over this… Ha Ha !!!!
