"I would never - never - go to Arlington and give a "thumbs-up" at the sacred ground of a fallen hero."

"On the other hand,, I would definitely go out of my way to urinate on the Kumquat Pol Pot's grave. Whatever it might be located.

"Cause I have patriotic beliefs and love the USA." - Every single service man and woman who wore the uniform of the USA and took their oath of office

This should be interesting.

It will probably be available too late really to affect the election.

Not to maga maroons.

They approve of Trump's rude and disrespectful behavior.

They think it's "manly".

If it turns out an employee of Arlington National Cemetery had a finger laid on her by Trump's thugs it behooves veterans not to vote for the intruder and his hoard.

UPDATE:

"The Army on Friday released a highly redacted police report filed in August by the employee.

"The law enforcement investigation into the incident remains open and we are therefore unable to provide further information at this time," an Army release including the report said on Friday. The released report says the incident is still being investigated by the Joint Base Myer-Henderson Hall Police Department Investigations Branch, though the employee "did not want to press charges."

The report is highly redacted, offering nearly no clarity or detail on what occurred during the incident, though the Army has previously said that the Arlington employee in question was "abruptly pushed aside" by a member of the Trump team.

The report was filed against a "simple assault" offense, the report says, though the actual detail of what occurred is redacted aside from the claim appearing to say the individual was pushed with both hands by another individual.

The report was released in response to a court order that was delivered earlier this week in response to a lawsuit by American Oversight, a nonpartisan watchdog nonprofit advocating for the release of government records.

"We're pleased that American Oversight was able to get the report into the hands of the American public so they can see for themselves that there is still an ongoing federal law enforcement investigation into the August incident at Arlington National Cemetery," Chioma Chukwu, interim director of American Oversight, said Friday."

Thanks for that follow-up.


It seems to me that the military wants to leave this disrespectful incident by the Rump crew incident behind, and just move forward.
