The enemy within

You'd think that much time in jail would kick her of the habit.

Once an addict always an addict. You might be in recovery X number of days, but you're still an addict and have to conduct yourself as such in order to prevent backsliding.

Libs think they are above the law... everywhere... turns out in Russia they're not... LOL

[image deleted] Conservatives think they're above the law. Turns out in America they're not LOL

Correct....only democrat party members and donors are....🤫😉

Don't compare Paul Whelan to these hard chargers. These honorably serving Marines weren't kicked out of the Marines with a Bad Conduct Discharge. Literally, that is just one small step from a Dishonorable Discharge. Whelan should NEVER be referred to as a Marine again.

You know......just a theory....but dont spys have to have a "back story"........

Up-voted; and yet with that our leftists -- with the ramming of their WOKE ideology being rammed down the military's throat -- wonder WHY recruitment is waaaaaaaaaaaaay down.

The Biden Afghanistan withdrawal should have tipped them off...

I don’t think it was Biden that set the basketball players worth. I think it was the kremlin.

And the woke left over here putting pressure on sleepy Joe.

Honestly how many people ever heard of Brittney Griner BEFORE Russia snatched her up?

So if you heard of her before, then she is worth saving? If you haven’t heard of her she isn’t? I guess everyone heard of Whalen too before? Can we get a show of hands for everyone who knew Whalen before he was snatched up by Russia? Solid logic.

But if a Marine gets a bad conduct discharge for felonious criminal activity, is he still a Marine?

Absolutely f**king NOT.

Wow, the things that one learns on the flip.

I'll say that I hadn't heard of that related to Whelan until just now and had to look it up before responding, sensing that it's a trap.

No bullshit, not a trap, Whelan had a "a court-martial conviction in January 2008 on multiple counts "related to larceny", he was sentenced to 60 days restriction, reduction to pay grade E-4, and a bad conduct discharge."

So, from a retired (22 years) GySgt, to answer your question - No. Hard stop.

This article gets more specific about the charges:

She had less than a gram of medical marijuana. If you think that's a "drug addict", I don't know what to tell you

Oh, I had forgotten that Russia prescribes medical marijuana.

When did I say that?

If you think she is more valuable than a marine...i don't know what to tell you

Ex-Marine with a bad conduct discharge...

"If you think she is more valuable than a marine"

She's just as valuable

Well, when we go to war with Russia we'll have Griner go out there and throw basketballs at the T72s and see how that works out.

"THIS FROM THE USER THAT CLAIMS; 'THEY' NEVER REPORTS OR FLAGS ANYONE"

I've never claimed that

True dat
