I Was Thinkin Again

Date: Wednesday, June 14, 2023 9:21 AM EDT

Back in my hay days, i served on a U.S. fleet ballistic missile submarine--somewhat at the top of the food chain when it comes to our "military defense".  Just about everything we saw, did, touched was classified in some way or another.  Most of the material was classified "confidential", but it pyramided up from there to Secret. Top Secret, For Your Eyes Only, etc.

I was thinking what i would do if i found that i had brought a "page' of classified material home accidentally with my other papers.  Here is what i thought i would do.

If it was "confidential" material i would probably look at it and make a judgement call--a: report it; or b: just take the chance that i could sneak it back on base the next day without telling anyone.

If it was other than "confidential", i would call my captain and tell him what had happened--and things would progress further from there.

And never would i feel good until the material was back where it should have been.

And "El Trumpo" was treating "classified material well above my eyes" like it was miscellaneous junk.

------------

We cannot, nor should we, put with El Trumpo any longer.  He needs to be done in 2023, not 2024.  There are a lot of "not so friendly opponents" just hoping they can hang on until El Trumpo becomes President of the United States again.  Let's nip that bs in the bud now.  Let's not put our public through that trauma again.  

And i am not a big proponent of pardons--especially pardons to someone who does not regret what he or she did.
