The last of the four American soldiers missing in Lithuania since last week was on Tuesday also found dead, the US Army said, without providing additional details. The three other soldiers were found dead on Monday after rescuers recovered their armoured vehicle from a swamp. Lithuanian authorities received a report last Tuesday that the soldiers went missing during a military drill at a training ground in the eastern city of Pabrade, near the border with Belarus. "The fourth US Army Soldier assigned to 1st Armored Brigade Combat Team, 3rd Infantry Division was found deceased near Pabrade, Lithuania the afternoon of April 1," US Army Europe and Africa's public affairs office said in a statement. "The Soldier's identity is being withheld pending confirmation of notification of next of kin," it added.

Trump won't be present today for the dignified transfer of four U.S. soldiers at Dover Air Force Base, Delaware.

Instead, he'll be attending a LIV Golf dinner reception in Florida.

attending a LIV Golf dinner reception in Florida.

A sitting POTUS endorsing a Saudi golf league at his own resort is a unique visual. Were there tariffs on Saudi Arabia announced yesterday? I didn't look.

... Trump isn't attending dignified transfer of soldiers who died in Lithuania

Trump won't be present today for the dignified transfer of four U.S. soldiers at Dover Air Force Base, Delaware.

Instead, he'll be attending a LIV Golf dinner reception in Florida.

The White House and the Defense Department did not immediately respond to requests for comment on which administration officials might be in attendance.

The soldiers died during a training exercise in Lithuania. They were honored during a dignified departure ceremony from Lithuania, with Lithuanian President Gitanas Nausda and other dignitaries paying tribute. ...



Friggin' wow.

fallen U.S. soldiers

They fell? I thought they sunk.

Yes, that was in very poor taste. I hope you enjoyed your appetizer.

I like to think that just about all of us can say, if I were the President, I would have been there to see the fallen soldiers remains re-patriated. To my hazy recollection they are among the first United States armed forces personnel to give their lives in the line of duty in our President's second term. That is a sacrifice which demands our honor. I am going to at least say their names, when released.

Instead, they gave their lives for this country, and our President went golfing.

I have mentioned this once upon a time, I'll say it again.

Back when I worked on the Navy base the defense contractor, we had those ------ motivational posters in the office, a sign of the times. You know the ones I'm talking about, people have been memeing on them for years.

But the one that got me was the AV-8B hovering in front of the Washington Monument and the flags all around with the caption

The Price Of Freedom Is Eternal Vigilance

At the heart of MAGA is stupidity and cruelty.

What's "funny" is that a lot of these MAGA are veterans.

Therefore MAGA is stupid and cruel enough to eat their own.

Taste good, does it?
