Exactly, Keel. This event did put pilot’s live at risk. I personally know an Air Force officer who was punished for a much less egregious leak of much less important classified material. Any of us who had put future attack information into a public site would be court martialed. As an Air Firce Second Lieutenant in 1967 I held several Top Secret “codeword clearances” and worked inside a classified vault. We were not even allowed to say the “codeword names” to anyone who did not hold that clearance, much less anything about the actual intelligence information. When I retired in 2008, I was debriefed on all the clearances I had at that time and told I could not ever tell anyone any of the information I had learned from it. I have never told anyone anything about it. These not ready for prime time officials have no business being in their confirmed positions.
There’s a line in “Cat Ballou” (1965) where John Marley as Frankie Ballou exclaims, “I’m not running a dude ranch for misfits and unemployables…”. I’ve been quoting that line a lot lately.
Please remember: this Friday, April 5, is going to be day of country-wide (& some world-wide, as well) protests. Find out & be there!! Also, email your senators & representatives DAILY!!! Harass them without mercy!!! Stay peaceful but, even more, STAY FIERCE!!!
Because of your 3 strong points, Keel, we are no longer the United States. Sadly, we are the Divided States of Trump Trash. Having a Putin-loving, First Felon in office insures world peace will not, & cannot, happen.
So Bill Howell and Pat Halper and others were removed from the TN legislature for reciting the Pledge of Allegiance? What is wrong with Bill Lee and the republicans in the TN legislature?? there aren't two more upstanding and patriotic people in the state!

Mr. Hunt-
There’s a line in “Cat Ballou” (1965) where John Marley as Frankie Ballou exclaims, “I’m not running a dude ranch for misfits and unemployables…”. I’ve been quoting that line a lot lately.
Keep up the good work.

Peter, two questions…
1. Is it Friday, or April 5?
2. I missed the memo: What specifically is being protested?
Preach it, Brother Keel!

Fear of is overcoming the love of our United States. How can we overcome this?
