    Default Communist West Point Graduate Called Mattis An ‘Evil, Vile F***’

    I'm guessing he didn't pay attention when it came to understanding the 1st amendment, and how the military has their military code of justice. What a dumbass.

    I'm not calling for a prison term. But seeing him tossed, after spending $$$, and before he even has a chance to start... and I hope it's dishonorable and messes with him for years to come.

    Communist West Point Graduate Called Mattis An ‘Evil, Vile F***’

    Communist West Point graduate 2nd. Lt. Spenser Rapone called Secretary of Defense James Mattis the most “evil, vile f***” in the entire Trump administration.

    After reports emerged tying Rapone to the Twitter account @punkproletarian on Monday, West Point issued a statement distancing itself from Rapone’s tweets, which included calling for political violence against the right, referring to Trump as a fascist, and openly promoting communism while in uniform. West Point also noted that Rapone’s chain of command had opened an investigation.

    But one of the tweets which has so far escaped attention is Rapone denigrating Mattis in the most vulgar of terms.

    In a tweet dated June 8, 2017, Rapone tweeted at a podcaster, stating: “Was so pumped for you to go in on Mattis on the latest ep. Definitely the most vile, evil fuck in the current administration.”

    Not only that, but Rapone also attacked Vice President Mike Pence in a tweet from August: “Holy s*** what world do these people live in? “Mediocre and conservative?” Pence is a fucking medieval, cold-blooded killer.”

    Such statements run the risk of violating Article 88 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice. According to Article 88, “Any commissioned officer who uses contemptuous words against the President, the Vice President, Congress, the Secretary of Defense, the Secretary of a military department, the Secretary of Transportation, or the Governor or legislature of any State, Territory, Commonwealth, or possession in which he is on duty or present shall be punished as a court-martial may direct.”

    The maximum punishment under Article 88 is dismissal from the military, forfeiture of all pay and allowances and prison for a year.

    I would say they could go for max based on what is stated. There's also a matter of lying on his application because they pointedly as if you are or ever have been a member of a communist and/or other notable groups that preach against the US government.

    This guy is obviously a moron. Typical lefty socialist that thinks he's so much smarter than everyone else he can get away with preaching sedition on a government-owned computer at West Point. He's brilliant alright

    I was wrong too, I guess it's free to go to west point? I was looking for costs and it appears free? Looks like everything is free across the board. So unfortunately, he won't be out $$$.

    So long as he gets tossed.

    It's 'free' in the sense that one is committed to serving in the army for 5 years. If he doesn't serve, I believe he has to pay the bill for the education-one of the best in the US. Looking around, this is what I found:
    The most recent figure I could find was one from a 2003 GAO report (GAO-03-1000) which listed the cost per USMA graduate at $349,327 for FY2002. That figure came from USMA's total yearly operating costs divided by the number of grads that year. The report also provided the figures for each of the three years prior to that, and the average cost increase each year was ~$13,000. Even if you round down to a $10,000/year increase, you're looking at a projected FY2011 cost of *roughly* $440,000 per graduate.

    Annapolis is that way. My sister in law would have had to cough up 100 grand had she tried to get out of it after her degree was completed.

    It's 8 years. Not sure how they split it up. Your 5 could be after graduation. That would be around 8. Your commitment to the military minimum is 8 years. Used to be 6 but it changed around 80.

    The difference in enlistment times that people see is how much active time you have. You can enlist for 3 years (or could) on active duty, but you will be in the Individual Ready Reserve for the remainder of the 8.

    Here's another tidbit of info I'm sure many don't know ... "retired" in the military is a misnomer. My pay is officially Retired/retainer pay and they make sure you know they have the right to call you back anytime they want. When you officially "retire" at 30, they STILL let you know they can call you back anytime they want.

    During the First Gulf War, they did exactly that. They recalled "retirees" from the IRR to fill in at bases that emptied of personnel to go to the Gulf. They foze almost all promotions, retirements and EAS (end of active service) discharges for almost a year. Aug 90 - Jun 91 I believe.

    I'm not sure if they can charge you (money) for washing out, regardless the circumstance. In this case, if he's facing punitive charges. Don't know how that works. I know if you enlist/reenlist for a bonus and do not complete the term of enlistment, the government will recoup the bonus.

    I saw 5 years active duty, if then don't re-up, 3 years active reserves. As you say, they can always recall in necessity.

    Default West Point Honor Code...

    One particular line from this paragraph:Although there are many cadet regulations which are related to the Honor System, the System has never outgrown its simple meaning--that a cadet will neither lie, cheat nor steal. A cadet's spoken or written word must always be acceptable without question. For their part, the authorities are careful not to use the Honor System to prevent the violation of regulations. Only if a cadet indicates by, a statement that he has complied or will comply with a particular regulation does the Honor System enter into consideration. When such a statement is made, it must, of course, be true. His statement must be proven to be true about Mattis.

    THEY SHOULD BE INVESTIGATING HOW A COMMUNIST PIECE OF SHIT GOT INTO WEST POINT IN THE FIRST PLACE.
    Surely, must have been under the obama regime and its advancement of this nation's enemies.
    Toss the ffing piece of shit out and mark him for the lying , dishonorable maggot that he is..

    This is how they, libs/socialists/communists are--now entrenched in and running the dem party.

    Okay folks. You want facts? Fact is. Congress critters nominate people to go to West Point, and Annapolis. Not a coincidence...that many Present day Congress members are also admitted Socialists, and Communists.
    This is how that COMMIE sympathizer managed to get into West Point...IMO.

    Just for starters from the above link: Bernie Sanders Democratic Socialists of America

    Current Members of the Congressional Progressive Caucus

    The Congressional Progressive Caucus (CPC) was founded in 1991 by Bernie Sanders, a self-identified socialist who had recently been elected to the U.S. House of Representatives. Sanders’ CPC co-founders included House members Ron Dellums,Lane Evans, Thomas Andrews, Peter DeFazio, and Maxine Waters. The Institute for Policy Studies (IPS) was also involved in CPC’s founding and in Caucus activities thereafter; IPS continues to advise CPC on various matters to this day.

    Radicalized at West Point?

    https://pjmedia.com/trending/2017/09...cademy-mentor/

    ...

    His mentor at USMA was Rasheed Hosein, a professor of Middle East history. He is on administrative leave and under investigation by the Army for engaging in political activity while in uniform. Hosein received a Ph.D. in Islamic history from the University of Chicago.

    Infiltration. It sows distrust among the ranks. It takes away from focusing on the mission. Hard to look at where you're going looking over your shoulder.

    Next logical question: How many more just like him? Only takes one cadet asking that of another and it spreads like wildfire.
