  1. So they’re also putting local troops in harms way by living in their ~~free~~ government housing because they’re scared.

    (not free they pay rent, I got confused after hearing Kristi wasn’t recently)

  2. It’s so odd having cowards hiding out on a military base to escape the wrath of the voters who might want to protest against them. Maybe they should just move onto an aircraft carrier or nuclear sub if they need to stay safe from drones too.

    government official living in military bases should tell you everything about the state of the union

    Hiding on military bases like cowards seems strange considering it’s their fuhrer’s “Golden Age.”

    What do they have to fear? The FBI is ran by a podcast jockey, the intelligence community is headed by a confirmed traitor, does DHS even have a leader, TSA agents aren’t getting paid and most of the agents across the homeland protection sphere have been directed to hunt non-existent violent immigrants. So I’m sure it’s just some party balloons!

  6. To promote Cabinet solidarity, the fake warrior Kegsbreath and ‘lil Marco’ will be sporting bandaged ears.

  7. They did set the precedent of offing world leaders. I’d be living on a military base too if I did that.

    Politics aside, how did random drones get that close to a military base? That’s the real question to me. You’d think they had better security.

    Drone is such an ambiguous word now

    Was it a toy quadcopter?  Was it something like an Amazon delivery drone?  Was it a fixed wing drone?  Was it Reaper sized?  Was it one of the mysterious shape shifting NJ or drones that came from the sea?  When they first started legislating drones, a lawyer was able to register a paper airplane as a drone. 

    Obviously Ukraine showed toy drones can be dangerous, but there’s a big difference in concern level between something someone half block down the road is manually flying around like an idiot, and a long range foreign military drone. 

  10. Rubio, Hegseth, Bondi — all living on military bases because they want to be shielded – by us – from the consequences of their actions.

  11. *starts war against country known for asymmetric warfare*

    *Surprised when asymmetric warfare happens*

    This is the other reason why the head of counterterrorism quit. The one they’re not telling you.

    The risk of terrorism on US soil is now sky high and they don’t have the resources to stop it.

  13. This is mildly frightening. Nearly all of the Trump Admin lives on military bases now. One, I think Miller off the top of my head, fled to one because people used sidewalk chalk on the public sidewalk outside his house to protest him.

    If they’re that afraid of sidewalk chalk, how are they going to react to this?

  14. Serious question: was it this administration that revealed this news? Cus I’m not trusting shit from this admin
