Some fat-ass took a knee for the National Anthem at a White House event yesterday, according to WJLA;
Denmark news anchor Jesper Zølck captured the moment on his Twitter page. Zølck attempted to speak with the individual but he left as soon as Trump’s event was over and refused to speak.
“At The White House. One guy in the audience took a knee during the national anthem at President Trumps celebration of America no Eagles event. Left right after – didn’t wanna talk,” Zølck said in a tweet of his own.
Then why was the creep even there? I mean it was at the White House, you know they’re going to play the National Anthem, so if the anthem offends you, why go? Attention whore fat ass.
A soldier at Fort Pickett, Virginia took an eleven-and-a-half-ton M577 armored command vehicle for a joyride through downtown Richmond, Virginia last night according to WUSA9.
Police were notified around 7:55 p.m. the vehicle was taken from the Army National Guard Maneuver Training Center and followed it on I-85 to I-95.
Video footage posted to Facebook shows the vehicle traveling north near the Dinwiddie area. Virginia State Police said the vehicle traveled at a maximum speed of about 40 miles per hour.
There is no information regarding how the driver gained access to the vehicle and there have been no crashes or injuries involved with the chase.
The driver stopped around 9:40 p.m. at East Broad Street and 11th Street, surrendering to police, according to NBC 12 in Richmond.
The Richmond Times-Dispatch reported the driver was Joshua Phillip Yabut, a 29-year-old who identifies himself as a lieutenant in the Virginia Army National Guard in social media posts. State police arrested Yabut on suspicion of driving under the influence of drugs and charged him with eluding police and unauthorized use of a vehicle.
We’ve been talking about Stafford, New Jersey mayor John Spodofora for six years for pretending to be a Vietnam veteran. Every election cycle would see the phony US Navy veteran secret squirrel win the election. Well, that has ended finally. He was defeated by a narrow margin in yesterday’s primaries;
The Ranger Group, attached to the 116th Infantry and commanded by Lt. Col. James E. Rudder, was given the mission to capture Pointe du Hoc and destroy the guns. The Ranger Group was made up of two battalions: the 2d Rangers, under direct command of Col. Rudder, and the 5th Rangers, under Lt. Col. Max F. Schneider. Three companies (D, E, and F) of the 2d Battalion (Task Force A) were to land from the sea at H-Hour and assault the cliff position at Pointe du Hoc. The main Ranger force (5th Battalion and Companies A and B of the 2d, comprising Task Force B) would wait off shore for a signal of success, then land at the Point. The Ranger Group would then move inland, cut the coastal highway connecting Grandcamp and Vierville, and await the arrival of the 116th Infantry from Vierville before pushing west toward Grandcamp and Maisy.
One DUKW was hit and sunk by 20-mm fire from a cliff position near the Point. The nine surviving LCAs came in and managed to land in parallel on a 400-yard front on the east side of Point du Hoc, landing about 0705. Allied naval fire had been lifted since H-Hour, giving the Germans above the cliff time to recover. Scattered small-arms fire and automatic fire from a flanking machine-gun position hammered the LCAs, causing about fifteen casualties as the Rangers debarked on the heavily cratered strip of beach. The grapnel rockets were fired immediately on touchdown. Some of the water-soaked ropes failed to carry over the cliff, but only one craft failed to get at least one grapnel to the edge. In one or two cases, the demountable extension ladders were used. The DUKWs came in but could not get across the cratered beach, and from the water’s edge their extension ladders would not reach the top of the cliff.
Despite all difficulties, the Rangers used the ropes and ladders to scramble up the cliff. The German defenders were shocked by the bombardment and improbable assault, but quickly responded by cutting as many ropes as they could. They rushed to the cliff edge and poured direct rifle and machine gun fire on the Rangers, augmented by grenades tossed down the slope. The Rangers never broke, continuing to climb amidst the fire as Ranger BAR men picked off any exposed Germans. The destroyer USS Satterlee (DD-626) observed the Rangers’ precarious position, closed to 1500 yards and took the cliff top under direct fire from all guns, a considerable assist at a crucial time.
Within ten minutes of the landing the first Americans reached the top of the cliffs.
A 63-year-old man with a concealed carry license shot an attempted armed robber Monday evening in the South Chicago neighborhood.
The man was walking with another person at 6:19 p.m. in the 8000 block of South Oglesby when the 16-year-old boy and his three accomplices pulled out weapons and demanded their property, according to Chicago Police. The man then pulled out his own gun and shot the boy in his knee, at which point the other suspects ran off.
The boy’s weapon turned out to be a replica handgun, police said.
He was taken to University of Chicago Medical Center in serious condition, police said.
Troopers report a 26-year-old Burlington Township man forced his way into a home where he was met by the 38-year-old home owner.
The two men knew each other. A struggle ensued which led to a 22-year-old from Litchfield who was in the home to come to the aid of the homeowner. The Litchfield man was armed with a handgun and tried to subdue the suspect from entering the home by striking him with the butt of a handgun. But the man who was trying to break into the house overpowered and strangled the 22-year-old to the point of unconsciousness.
The man who came to the aid of the homeowner sustained numerous lacerations and bruising about the face and neck. He was taken by Lifecare Ambulance to ProMedica Coldwater Regional Hospital for non-life threatening injuries and is expected to make a full recovery.
A 20-year-old female and a ten month old infant were also in the home during the incident and were uninjured.
The 26 year old Burlington man was lodged at Calhoun County Jail charged with Assault, Great bodily harm less then Murder and Home Invasion.
Authorities say a man has died after apparently cutting himself on shattered window glass after breaking into a home in northern Michigan.
WPBN-TV reports authorities on Monday identified the man as 36-year-old Vincent Parnell Reynolds, who recently moved to Petoskey from the Saginaw area.
Officers found Reynolds bleeding the morning of May 27 on the home’s roof. Police say he left a party, eventually broke into a house and tried to escape through a window after a brief confrontation with the owner.
Our buddy, Don Shipley sends us this fellow, Robert Stephen Willey, who claims that he is a Navy SEAL. Just eight years ago, he was arrested in Florida for robbing a bank and for bad checks. He was a fugitive from justice out of Michigan at the time. Don busted him for pretending to be a SEAL in November 2016.
Mr Willey shows folks this sad-ass forged DD214 to make up for his lack of military service;
I don’t know where Lebanan, Beruit is, but it must be a dangerous place. Also, the dates for his dental exam is confirmed ten years after the discharge date. Another time traveler. Don also reminds us that the Navy uses stars for multiple awards and not oak leaves.
That 25-meter stare so prevalent among Navy SEALs plays to his advantage, though.
According to MSN, Ron Rockwell Hansen was arrested as a spy for China in Hong Kong on Saturday. Hansen is a former US Army warrant officer and case officer for the Defense Intelligence Agency.
Mr. Hansen, 58, a fluent Mandarin speaker who first visited China in 1981, has allegedly received at least $800,000 in “funds originating from China” since May 2013.
On Saturday, Mr. Hansen was arrested in Seattle and charged with attempted espionage, in what appears to be another high-profile mole hunt by F.B.I. investigators intent on uncovering Chinese spying against the United States.
“His alleged actions are a betrayal of our nation’s security and the American people and are an affront to his former intelligence community colleagues,” John C. Demers, the assistant attorney general for national security, said in a statement posted on the Justice Department’s website on Monday.
If convicted, Mr. Hansen faces a maximum penalty of life in prison. He is also accused of “acting as an unregistered foreign agent for China, bulk cash smuggling, structuring monetary transactions and smuggling goods from the United States,” the Justice Department said.
He is alleged to have attempted repeatedly to regain access to classified information after he stopped working for the US government, thereby alerting authorities to his actions.
According to CBS News, Raymond Jaquay stole flags from various memorials in Pennsylvania and when investigators caught up to him, Jaquay explained that he needed curtains;
Raymond Jaquay is accused of stealing U.S. and POW/MIA flags from sites in western Pennsylvania including Brackenridge Memorial Park, and a Marine Corps flag from an ice cream shop in Tarentum, according to CBS Pittsburgh. Police identified Jaquay through surveillance video from a nearby business and arrested him on June 2.
When officers went to his home, they found the flags. When asked why he stole the flags, police say Jaquay told them a curtain rod in his home broke and he needed something to cover his windows, CBS Pittsburgh reports.
Jaquay has since apologized and returned all of the flags.
The Brackenridge community spent years raising money to restore the war memorial and on Memorial Day, residents held a special rededication ceremony. Shortly after the ceremony, the flags went missing.
None of his victims want to press charges against Jaquay, but he is facing charges for disorderly conduct from local constabulary.
