Army is considering more electronic warfare teams, longer tours

KAISERSLAUTERN, Germany – The Army is adding more personnel to its electronic warfare and air defense teams to keep up with emerging global threats, Army Secretary Mark Esper said following discussions with servicemembers and officials in Germany on Monday.

The Army’s transition comes at a time when it is reshaping its force to deal with potential threats from near-peer adversaries like Russia and away from counterinsurgency campaigns that have dominated recent U.S. warfare in Iraq and Afghanistan.

THUGR ... Before we start worrying about "western" democracy, let's start with worrying about OURS.

So, what are the bases of our democracy?

Well, we can look to the Constitution and the Bill of Rights for our clues:

Separation of powers.
States' rights.
Right to vote.
Free speech.
Right to own weapons.
Freedom from warrantless search and seizure.
Due process, equal to all.
Right to a speedy public trial by a jury of peers.
No excessive bail.
https://constitution.com/bill-rights/

I frankly do not see how Russia HAS interfered with any of this, and altho I can imagine how Russia COULD interfere with the vote- for example, by literally hacking the voter rolls or the count, the rest of it is up to us, isn't it?

All of the transgressions of our democracy have been by OUR GOVERNMENT, as far as I can tell.

THUGGER,

I'm just curious how often you'll duck a topical response to your ridiculous post.


.a handful. .thousands. .OMG. In a country of 365+ million people and a daily online space of trillions of tweets, posts, and shares, a handful - five or less - out of trillions, have been shared thousands of times, maybe even as few as 2,000 - out of trillions.

GRAB YOUR GUN, GRANNY RF!!! THEY'RE AT THE DOOR !!!!!!!!!!!!




THUGGER admits it's not about RUSSIA !!! and is, in fact, a witch hunt. "Trump better be innocent of any wrong doing, anywhere, anytime."

It looks like THUGR doesn't even know what democracy is.
