I am pissed USAA has supported Fox News over the years. I really feel ill when I see the picture of that bombastic idiot Carlson. Carlson to many Trump supporters is a beacon of truth.
I am so disgusted with USAA I may take my business elsewhere. It has shown me that USAA made a poor decision in supporting a company filled with pathological liars. The relationship with Fox News and USAA tells me that USAA needs to think about its values and how it fits in the ethical decision making that impacts the country. I am very disgusted by this abortion of a relationship. Carlson incites many Trump supporters, but USAA who I have admired for years supports a company and reporters who incite. Americans.
My gosh USAA is run by a bunch of retired generals, are they stupid as well? However, we have seen some stupid generals active or retired. For the USAA leaders who are too stupid to be cognizant of the role of Fox News let me say what Mao Tse Tung said about revolutions:
- An elite in society will push the "cause" with vitriolic rhetoric, ideology, and leadership. Trump continues to caustically communicate he is the rightful president.
- The "cause" needs a cadre to support the leader and recruit followers. They push the ideology of the leader, thereby inciting followers and giving the ideology legitimacy. The cadre is the GOP.
- The followers believe the leader and the cadre and accept the ideology and the legitimacy of the leadership. They will become passionate to support the "cause". Look at the Capitol Building attack.
Fox News is the mouthpiece for Trump and the GOP. It incites Trump supporters with prolific lies and stupid assertions. USAA is sleeping with the enemy of this country.
I was going to ask for an auto loan from USAA, but forget it. I am shopping elsewhere.

Rand Paul Trashes "Orwellian" Lockdowns, Blasts Gov. Andy Beshear
In a town hall on small business held in his state of Kentucky, Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) excoriated lockdown policies and criticized the state's Democratic Gov....
Resolution to prosecute Donald Trump and other public officials for being accessories to a pandemic
WHEREAS Trump was briefed at least by January 30, 2020 that Covid-19 was very contagious and deadly similar to smallpox and the plague,
WHEREAS Trump told Americans 22 times the Corona virus would go away,
WHEREAS in September 2020 Trump pressured the CDC to downplay the threat of Covid-19 and the CDC director Dr. Robert Redfield did not resign,
WHEREAS in August 2020 Trump appointed a radiologist Dr. Scott W. Atlas to serve as an advisor on the White House Covid virus Task Force instead of an infectious disease MD and Atlas spread misinformation about COVID-19, including theories that face masks and social distancing were not effective in slowing the spread of the corona virus and he recommended faster reopening of schools and businesses during the COVID-19 pandemic,
Whereas Dr. Deborah Birx said she asked herself, “Is there something that I think I can do that would be helpful in responding to this pandemic, but she did not resign and she said Trump was “attentive to the scientific literature,” praising his ability to “analyze and integrate data.”
Whereas Trump put Jared Kushner, in charge of the nation’s response to the pandemic and Kushner said, “The federal government is not going to lead this response…. It’s up to the states to figure out what they want to do.”
Whereas Paul Alexander and his boss, Michael Caputo, the assistant secretary for public affairs at Health and Human Services, were working to change the language officials at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention used to warn of the dangers of the coronavirus,
Whereas Florida Governor Ron DeSantis covered up the true rate of Covid infections and deaths,
Whereas US Sen. Rand Paul criticized the Lockdowns, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=exJt7uYwY8o
WHEREAS Trump in February 2020 accused Democrats of “politicizing” the corona virus during a campaign rally claiming that the outbreak is “their new hoax,” accusing the press of being in “hysteria mode”, and downplaying the severity by comparing the number of fatalities during an average flu season,
WHEREAS Trump received a vaccination against Covid and he kept it a secret,
WHEREAS the former US Commander and Chief, Trump had the duty to protect US persons from all enemies (aka deadly threats), and one such enemy was Covid-19, a deadly and extremely contagious disease which even if the victim does not die, it can allegedly result at times in serious negative outcomes to a person’s long term health,
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED we demand Trump and other US public officials be prosecuted by the US Court of jurisdiction and/or the international Criminal Court for gross negligence and reckless disregard for human life and health due to making false and unscientific statements about Covid-19.
And THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED we need a new law making it a crime to be an accessory to a pandemic.
Trump’s order did not fully “close” the U.S. off to China, as he asserts. It temporarily barred entry by foreign nationals who had traveled in China within the previous 14 days, with exceptions for the immediate family of U.S. citizens and permanent residents. Americans returning from China were allowed back after screening at select ports of entry and for 14 days afterward.
More than 27,000 Americans returned from mainland China in the first month after the restrictions took effect. U.S. officials lost track of more than 1,600 of them who were supposed to be monitored for virus exposure. Nearly 40,000 Americans and authorized travelers have come into the U.S. from China since President Trump imposed travel restrictions more than two months ago, the New York Times reports.
279 flights from China have arrived in the U.S. since Trump's travel restrictions were announced, "and screening procedures have been uneven," the Times notes.

Lying to the public
The president’s duty to faithfully execute his office plays a critical role in the constitutional scheme. Going beyond requiring the president to “take care that the laws be faithfully executed,” Const., Art. II, Sec. 3, Cl. 5, the Clause 8 constitutional duty to “faithfully execute” the presidential office limits the president’s discretion in how to perform his official functions.
“Faithfully” was contemporaneously defined, in part, as: “Honestly, without fraud, trick, or ambiguity.” The oath or command of faithful execution to an office holder came to convey an affirmative duty to act … honestly … in the best interest of the public.” (Emphasis added.)
Accordingly, to faithfully execute the office of the President includes a duty to act honestly. Since communicating to the public is one of the president’s official functions, the honesty duty likewise applies to virtually all such communications. Bush Jr. and Trump “repeatedly making false statements.
President Bush and seven of his administration's top officials, including Vice President Dick Cheney, National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice, and Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, made at least 935 false statements in the two years following September 11, 2001, about the national security threat posed by Saddam Hussein's Iraq was part of an orchestrated campaign that effectively galvanized public opinion and, in the process, led the nation to war under decidedly false pretenses.

SSG Robert Mark Odom "Veterans associations, furious vets and military personnel are calling on their insurance company to yank ads from Fox News and Tucker Carlson’s program after he called Gen. Mark Milley, a “pig” for schooling Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) during congressional testimony.
Carlson went after the nation’s highest-ranking military officer on Thursday, saying Milley’s “not only a pig, but stupid” after the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff put Gaetz in his place. Milley told lawmakers — most pointedly Gaetz — that it’s important for military personnel to be “open minded,” “widely read” and educated about issues, including about Critical Race Theory.
“What is wrong with understanding? Having some situational understanding about the country for which we are here to defend?” an irritated Milley asked Wednesday during the House Armed Services Committee hearing, which left Gaetz shaking his head in disgust.
Carlson came back Friday to again attack Milley, slamming his remarks as “disgraceful.”
Now veterans, service members and other customers are calling on the United Services Automobile Association (USAA), a banking and insurance company which primarily serves vets and their families, to stop supporting Carlson’s show with advertising dollars.
Fox News has in the past maintained a reputation as strong defender of the military, making it an obvious choice for ads appealing to vets and service members. That reputation is deteriorating as Carlson has repeatedly attacked the U.S. military, calling it soft, woke and, to his disgust, femininized.
After the Milley attack, the nonpartisan Veterans for Responsible Leadership, went after USAA.
“So, USAA, is this who you advertise with?” asked a tweet by the group. “Asking for 18 million friends.” It later followed up: “USAA what are you going to do about this?”

USSA's sponsorship of Fox News makes me question USAA's cultural values and ethics. I am immensely disappointed they will support a media outlet that lies and incites the crazy Trump supporters. I had always held USAA in high esteem, but this shit tells me the organization made a immensely f@cked up decision. Now I question the fidelity of USAA.
