about"breaching the Capitol." The video shows Adam Newbold, 45, from Lisbon, Ohio, whom the Navy confirmed is a retired reserve SEAL special warfare operator, in a car on his return home from Washington, telling his Facebook followers that he had wanted to make lawmakers"think twice about what they're doing" and leave them"shaking in their shoes."
Mary McCord, a longtime national security expert who now runs Georgetown Law's Institute for Constitutional Advocacy and Protection, told ABC News that the radicalization of military servicemen and their participation in the Capitol riot last week isn't surprising to her and has long been an issue."Some unlawful militias specifically recruit from the military because of their expertise in firearms, explosives, and tactical skills," McCord explained.
"I think we should throw the book at them, to the furthest extent possible," said Rep. Ruben Gallego, D-Ariz."If you're off active duty, I want to figure out a way we can bring you back and charge you."Military personnel who retire after 20 years of service are entitled to benefits like monthly military retirement pay, access to Department of Defense medical care and health plans, and access to military commissaries.
"My client fought -- was in the military, served honorably. No criminal background whatsoever," said the attorney for Jacob Chansley, also known as Jake Angeli, the man who was photographed during the riot wearing
not everyone present was there to riot.
Wow ! That's shocking
If they are convicted of any crimes from the insurrection, all benefits and pensions should be taken away as part of the sentence.
CHRISTIAN WHITE SUPREMACISTS ARE IN POLITICAL OFFICE, ARE EMBEDDED IN LAW ENFORCEMENT AND MILITARY AND ARE BEING AIDED BY THE REPUBLICANS. Their goal..TOTAL CONTROL OF AMERICA.
Not surprising.
SimonMarksFSN ASDA on Black Friday looked more riotous
Once again, I woke up with filled anxiety, anger & sadness from being sexually assaulted & repeatedly victimized for 3 years straight. All I want is justice so i can heal & move on with my life! WILL YOU PLEASE HELP ME FBI/FBIPHOENIX/THEJUSTICEDEPT INVESTIGATION?
Oh boy 🤮
NO leniency for terrorists. LarryRendellBrock EricGavelekMunchel terrorism
Look on the bright side... If they're ex or current service members, they already know the score. And they are well aware of what's going to happen if they engage any of our troopers protecting the Capitol. No mercy for traitors.
The should be tried in military court, stripped of their ranks, benefits and given dishonorable if found guilty. Plus, prison time. They served the military to defend and protect America and not to become domestic terrorists.
Wow just wow we are better then this gentleman as military personnel. we are here to protect usa not aid its destruction. These are truly sad times.
And how many were antifa? Come on abc, tell us
I think doing a comparison to Mcveigh would be helpful for people to understand how this domestic terrorism is so dangerous.
There a probably “nearly a dozen” former members of the military at every mass “protest”. Get a grip people. Clickbait title.
make sure that you don’t let the Donald near any megaphones or microphones on inauguration day so he doesn’t try to call the well armed guard or soldiers to arms to support his plan to overthrow our democracy this would not be a shock since he did it on 1/6
I keep saying that I don’t trust Trump this Wednesday, military parade my Ass! He’s got something up his sleeve!
There were also a lot of off-duty police officers at this riotous protest. Including cookcountygov police.
They awe to have know better than to turn on their Country I hope the law deal with them accordingly... Shameful so called Patriots!
Being a veteran or retired from the military is not a vaccine for stupidity, ignorance, or sedition...
8! Maybe 10! Wow, the world is ending.
He brags about making peace in the Gaza strip but can not bring peace to the USA
Ex-military are the same people who are police officers across the country. Now you see why Black lives don't matter to them. In 2019, police brutality cost $300 mil. in lawsuits nationwide. We have to screen candidates better before hiring them.
Terrible
When found guilty, they should lose their benefits. consequenceculture
See... US Civil War II... seems to be happening soon 💁🏻♀️
FORMER. NOT CURRENT
I was drafted and served my time in the Army. The military is just like America. Mostly good folks with a sprinkling of knuckleheads. Sorry to burst your bubble. A small percentage of any species is useless.
Pull all of their military pensions if they are convicted cuz they performed an insurrection.
Some are still in the military. Guardsmen. If one of them to one shoot at the . Well
Traitors. They violated their oath
I’m a veteran and this fucking pisses me off. Thanks for letting me vent.
As a man who served during the 2008 election, this doesn’t surprise me at all. They never minced words about feelings for 44 or “the Libs”. Keep looking, the number will grow higher than 8.
That is a bit suspicious!
How many were arrested again for the riot at Trumps inauguration?
Thought to ponder...
And is the exact reason I don't unconditionally love our military. If you think there aren't White Supremacists in its ranks, and they are there to get a free tactical and weapons training... You're sorely mistaken. Trust but verify.
That's not really a surprise. Whenever I come across someone who once served in the military or law enforcement then my first assumption is they're probably conservative and most of the time that is true, not always but most.
That is truly sad
ANTIFA ‼️‼️
Such a shame!
But what’s on the laptop is priceless
I was inducted into the US Army in 67. I do not recall my DD214 excusing me from my oath to defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies foreign and domestic. If you are waging insurrection against the Congress and the results of a free and fair election....
The rest are just people who pretend they were in the military
What charge is insurrection under the UCMJ.
Seems very odd. Also, no coverage of funerals or family members of the 'victims'. Strange as news media ALWAYS covers those like in Minneapolis, Oregon. What is MSM not telling you? What are they hiding. All lies are being revealed as we tweet.
This could be a crazy idea...and I'm probably really going out on a limb here...but maybe we should stop running Fox News 24/7 on military bases across the world as their primary source of radicalizat...I mean, 'information.'
Because government has always had their back one hundred percent.
So.... Antifa and BLM protestors were also ex military.
They were brainwashed into placing Trump over country. 🇺🇸🇺🇸
Why are people surprised when the bad guys are cops or military personnel? Both recruit from our society. Our. Society. The uniform does not make the man or woman.
why the confusion? Americans are overhyped for their flag from early childhood and as soldiers indoctrinated to believe they fight for America’s freedom in whatever deserts on the other side of the planet. push these 2 buttons and they go in blind overdrive.
(Whispers) there is more out there.
This is frightening. Who can we trust? This is a man who called our soldiers “losers & suckers”, yet they still support him. My mind boggles at the ignorance & cult like behaviour of Trump supporters. So my question, will Pres. Joe Biden & VP Kamala Harris be safe & protected?
This should not be a surprise.....,🍀🇮🇪🍀
Gee, whodathunk misfits ever went into the military? There's a reason these losers did not succeed. This is how they repay the country that provided them training and opportunities they could not find elsewhere.
they have to experience devastating ramifications to their attack on our capitol. Not just legally. All aspects of our society have to shun, revile, and mark these people as traitors to the greatest democracy in the world. Let's frame it that way bc it's true
The same military members he called “losers” and “suckers” They must be so proud
The man in the picture is wearing a blckriflecoffee cap - that caters to the unachievable sexy pewpewpew lifestyle. And they aren't the only company that does that.
Ok now they need to investigate all military departments
They should lose their benefits..
Timothy McVeigh was probably their hero.
