    And any military personnel who carry this out without congressional approval should be imprisoned and executed for treason. 🤷‍♂️ rules.

      The military is America’s workforce program. Those kids just needed a job and healthcare. They’re too young, inexperienced in life, and desperate. They shouldn’t be executed. On the other hand, the higher command, those whom the administration put in command for their loyalty, should be held accountable. I’m also a firm believer that those in charge of others should be punished equally for the actions of those under their command. That includes the commander in chief of the armed forces.
