Why Does VP Harris not Return Salutes from Military? (1 Viewer)

Bingo! Fox Information is another Russian disinformation creation. Sadly it works and fake news lovers willingly swallowed it whole and passed it along. VySky and Mycroft jumped on it as the GRU intended.
Nonsense! I am sure Fox informed people that she is not required to salute, that doing so is a recent phenomenon by presidents. Fair and Balanced is their creed.
 
Why? She’s not a soldier. Civilian control of the military is what we have in this country. When Harris joins the military, you may have a point. I don’t salute soldiers either, tho I often thank vets for their service. Do you salute soldiers?
He supports insurrectionists and the thugs who invaded our capitol so he is a patriotic Russian.
 
When Trump found out he offered to put them up, cost free in his hotel. Jill gave them cookies.
That's another lie you believed. Gullible must be you middle name. :ROFLMAO:


CLAIM: Donald Trump invited National Guard members to stay at Trump Hotel in Washington so they don’t have to sleep in a cold parking garage.

AP’S ASSESSMENT: False. A spokesperson with the National Guard Bureau told The Associated Press they had not received any offers to stay at Trump International Hotel Washington, D.C., the former president’s hotel. The National Guard members assigned to Washington were all provided hotel rooms by the military. The issue that arose last week was over where the troops could take rest breaks.

So tell me, where exactly is Harris in the chain of command?
 
A lot about Harris in the news. One thing that I found very odd is Harris has been elevated to a position recognition that no one can recall it ever happening before. The websites of all 15 Cabinet-level executive departments already refer to this administration as the Biden-Harris administration versus the norm which would be the Biden administration. Is this because she is a woman? Anyway if her standing has been elevated, maybe she should be saluting the troops too.

Another was laughing out loud when asked if she planned to visit the border soon. What is so friggin funny about the question? There is a friggin humanitarian, health, national security crisis happening!
 
You are spreading shameless lies. It might work for your Trump Facebook group, but no one else is buying it.
Calling my a liar?
 
Calling my a liar?
No, I said you are spreading lies. Others have posted the evidence that they are lies. If you believe your allegations, post the evidence - find anyone backing up the claim Trump offered up his hotel to house the thousands of troops in D.C., mostly because of the threat of MAGA terrorists doing more terrorizing. I'm sure I don't need to stay up waiting on that. Roughly none of that story was true. Biden addressed any conditions left over from the administration of your Dear Leader immediately. None of the troops stayed in the Trump Hotel, and no one has any evidence of an actual offer being made, because 'the troops' all had hotel rooms already and didn't need to stay in Trump's hotel.

Vice President Kamala Harris is going through criticism for showing to interrupt with precedent and failing to salute the respect guard when boarding Air Drive Two.

Video reviewed by Fox Information confirmed that her predecessors, former Vice President Mike Pence and President Biden, usually saluted the respect guard in the identical state of affairs.


Slow news day?

You must be missing those daily tweets from Trump's bathroom.
 
these are the controversies that i love.


ignoring pandemics was just too much. so glad we're back to this easily solved stuff.

I doubt Harris meant any disrespect. I believe Trump and Obama have been guilty of the same.

Who cares🙄
 
That the lady you voted in as VP displays her total lack of respect for our US military is what should make you feel ashamed...for her actions and for yours.
Get back to us when she calls those died or were taken prisoner in service to our country "losers" and "suckers" and ducks out on a ceremony honoring those lost because it's was raining when every other head of state of all the allied nations didn't let a little inclimate weather deter them from giving their respects. Then and only then you can come back here and complain about respect for our military.

Disrespectful ungrateful garbage human perhaps?

She didn't care when our military was sleeping in a cold parking garage in the dead of winter with one bathroom for 5,000 male and female soldiers. She didn't care when they were getting snacks instead of real food. She didn't care when they finally got real food and then got sick because is was undercooked and had metal shavings in it.

Dude...don't piss on my leg and tell me it's raining. I don't give a rat's ass what she says...it's all bullshit. Look at what she does. Total disrespect. Hell, just wait till she signs legislation to cut the budgets of the military and the VA. (And she will.)

Look at what she does...not what she says.

This isn't because she's a woman. It's because she will soon be President.

The sheep are being groomed into accepting her as such.
 
And the reason for a civilian to salute someone is? The president is commander-in-chief so it is logical he gets saluted but Kamala Harris is a civilian in civilian attire, I doubt that the salute is customary in those cases (from what I have just read on https://www.military.com/join-armed-forces/getting-the-lowdown-on-customs-and-courtesies.html)

She perhaps learned from her mentor Obama who wasn’t fond of saluting either.
 
That the OP is quoting from a garbage website obviously based somewhere overseas that found some stupid pretense to attack Harris? Why would liberals be ashamed of that? If they're mad in whatever country the writer resides, I don't give a flying ****.
Manufactured outrage is only bad when your ox is gored, apparently.
 
I'll say it again mycroft my friend, outraged is the normal state of being for a whole bunch in the republican party.
You could only say something that dumb if you had slept through the last 4 years
 
While an older article
"

Actually, no regulation specifies that the president should salute (or return the salute of) military personnel. In fact, U.S. Army regulations, for example, state that neither civilians nor those wearing civilian attire (both of which describe the U.S. president) are required to render salutes. The regulation states:

“The President of the United States, as the commander in chief, will be saluted by Army personnel in uniform.

“Civilian personnel, to include civilian guards, are not required to render the hand salute to military personnel or other civilian personnel.

“Salutes are not required to be rendered or returned when the senior or subordinate, or both are in civilian attire.”

Fact Check: Should presidents return salutes from the military? - News - The Florida Times-Union - Jacksonville, FL

I think anyone who is making an issue of this should be ashamed and look up what regulation require.
The R's are very good at making issues where none exist.

She is NOT the commander in chief. I am sure her salute would be just a courtesy. She doesn't have to do it.
 
I demand a full congressional investigation
