“The primary mission was search-and-rescue,” the former Coast Guard official said, "and now the number one stated mission of the Coast Guard is border security, that is a cultural change that the culture hasn’t quite caught up to.”
You know goddamn well which mission was the most important one, you dumbass. “The culture” expects you to prioritize human life over performative political bullshit.
She probably cackled with delight at the chance to ensure the death of another human
Can’t wait to see her in federal prison or worse. A puppy killer deserves nothing in life except pain and suffering, but then they gave her control over DHS so she could murder humans instead of puppies.
Coast guardsmen are under DHS and may currently be unpaid for their apparently-expendable work.
I cannot even tell if this is real or not
Wow. I don’t know if everyone understands how unbelievably fucked up that is. A person overboard is usually considered an all hands on deck, high priority search and rescue operation because of how hard it is to spot the person and how finding that person a few minutes earlier can make the difference between rescuing a person and recovering a corpse. She downright sacrificed a Coast Guardsmen’s life for something that could have waited. This is beyond incompetent priority management and I can guarantee that most Coast Guard members hate her guts for it now.
People always go on about how the armed forces hate Trump. If that’s the case, how come they never balk at carrying out all those blatantly illegal orders?

They do?
My impression has always been that some of the military hates him, but it’s a very small handful.
I’ve been out long enough to not have a sense of the current vibe. I’m just pointing out that there’s a solution if they’re really that pissed.
I’m not denying that. In saying they’re not anywhere near as pissed as people make it out to be. It seems like a lot of people in the US armed forces are on board with the fascist takeover of their country.
Seems like you don’t understand how military training is. Boot camps purpose is to beat the critical thinking and individuality out of you. Officer school is all about how to control peons.
The system works as designed.
While I understand the hopelessness of trying to find a single person lost in the ocean. This is fucking stupid as hell and she should be thrown into the ocean and the search abandoned immediately after.
You will have no shortage of volunteers to toss her over the rail
Those dead eyes…
And cauliflower face.

Depraved indifference, that’s manslaughter!
