I think most of the Coast Guard will turn on the Trump Regime when the time comes. No military likes their own being abandoned to die, because that sets the tone for everyone in the rank and file.
Why?
I dont know how you could think that given the absolute lack of anything similar from any of the other branches.
People were starting to cling on to the “the military is going to stop the Trump coup” copium all the way back at the beginning of his first term. It has yet to happen, and both he and his cronies are all the more entrenched.
and the Jan 6th insurrection hearing… and the 14th amendment section 3…
“The primary mission was search-and-rescue,” the former Coast Guard official said, "and now the number one stated mission of the Coast Guard is border security, that is a cultural change that the culture hasn’t quite caught up to.”
You know goddamn well which mission was the most important one, you dumbass. “The culture” expects you to prioritize human life over performative political bullshit.
She probably cackled with delight at the chance to ensure the death of another human
She should be tossed overboard, see if anybody goes looking for her.
Can’t wait to see her in federal prison or worse. A puppy killer deserves nothing in life except pain and suffering, but then they gave her control over DHS so she could murder humans instead of puppies.
I cannot even tell if this is real or not
Wow. I don’t know if everyone understands how unbelievably fucked up that is. A person overboard is usually considered an all hands on deck, high priority search and rescue operation because of how hard it is to spot the person and how finding that person a few minutes earlier can make the difference between rescuing a person and recovering a corpse. She downright sacrificed a Coast Guardsmen’s life for something that could have waited. This is beyond incompetent priority management and I can guarantee that most Coast Guard members hate her guts for it now.
People always go on about how the armed forces hate Trump. If that’s the case, how come they never balk at carrying out all those blatantly illegal orders?
Nah, back when I was Chair Force 20 years ago we were fed a constant stream of FOXNews in the common areas. I don’t imagine that’s changed at all, so the rank and file should probably be considered to be about the same as the boomers politically. The hope was that the officer corps would resent his draft dodging stolen valor ass, but even that would have only lasted until the Pentagon got purged.
The air force in particular had a pretty strong evangelical bent even back then. Can’t imagine it’s improved any.

They do?
My impression has always been that some of the military hates him, but it’s a very small handful.
My impression has always been that it’s a shitshow.
- Military vertical culture is “fuck your opinion, do your job” or “failure to obey orders.” Refusing illegal orders is a theoretical training seminar that covers examples like sexual favors and cleaning out the bosses car.
- Military horizontal culture is “I’m just here to do my job, eventually go to school” and “failure to report.”
There’s not really any room to hate Trump. I mean… go ahead, hate him… They have about the same regard for that as they would have for any conservative members hating Obama. They don’t want to hear it, unless it’s just you and your bud shooting shit on a long watch. You do your job, that’s it.
High-ranking members get disgruntled and choose to retire or whatever. That only weakens the reserve of people who aren’t just blindly following orders.
They aren’t taught to have opinions. They’re taught to stand at attention so that someone else can breathe down their neck and talk shit unrelentingly. They’re taught to breathe the farts in deep, until they start seeing the shenanigans as tough love.
I’ve been out long enough to not have a sense of the current vibe. I’m just pointing out that there’s a solution if they’re really that pissed.
I’m not denying that. In saying they’re not anywhere near as pissed as people make it out to be. It seems like a lot of people in the US armed forces are on board with the fascist takeover of their country.
Seems like you don’t understand how military training is. Boot camps purpose is to beat the critical thinking and individuality out of you. Officer school is all about how to control peons.
The system works as designed.
Coast guardsmen are under DHS and may currently be unpaid for their apparently-expendable work.
Every day the line between cartoonishly evil and cartoonishly stupid gets smaller with this administration.
Two circles overlapping to become one.
That sound is the two black holes ringing down as they merge
While I understand the hopelessness of trying to find a single person lost in the ocean. This is fucking stupid as hell and she should be thrown into the ocean and the search abandoned immediately after.
You will have no shortage of volunteers to toss her over the rail
She should be sentenced to be shot in that same quarry where she did her puppy
Disagree. Execution by firing squad would be an honorable death for a Nazi. Hanging or lethal injection like a common criminal is more appropriate.
Draw and quarter.
Next time put a warning if you’re gonna show a close-up of that face
Lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll’s eyes
If you told me it’s a wax representation of a human, but done be a trainee rather than a professional I’d believe you.
Anyone working on a boat should keep in mind that this will happen to them too, and think about how their families would feel hearing news like this.
Those dead eyes…
And cauliflower face.
Yeah whats up with that? I mean she looks bad. Like unhealthy bad. Im sure its something to do with her blackened and tarred soul seeping through and becoming visable, but still.
Ever seen Death Becomes Her?
Injecting shit into your face and surgeries tend to leave people lumpy after a while.
Too much filler, it’s settling weird on her face and lips. I’m assuming she keeps injecting more without dissolving the previous batch. Look up pictures of her from 2018 and you’ll see how much filler she’s packed into her cheeks, eye troughs, and lips.
It also looks like her makeup is extremely dry, but the way it’s caked on over uneven skin does make me wonder if she has a condition like rosacea. I have rosacea and don’t wear makeup because it just looks worse than my bare skin lol
Open water 5
Depraved indifference, that’s manslaughter!
