The pandemics 2nd wrongest commentator continues to just be clueless.
Every other state has a higher death rate than Vermont!
Only 294 people in VT have died. The point of the vaccines is that it protects from hospitalization and death.
Gov Phil Scott has been pro-vax & its working |

we were told Pfizer has 95% efficacy "preventing infection"...not "protecting from hospitalization"..or death
"Based on evidence from clinical trials in people 16 years and older, the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine was 95% effective at preventing laboratory-confirmed infection with the virus that causes COVID-19" |

None myself, but I do have an acquaintance who went to law school with him.
They offered and were never contacted.
You’re sounding like Gym Jordan🙈

Actually trolling is what you did here, with your only prior post in this thread.

You're the one who brought up trolling with your troll. And you are the Troll par excellence on this forum.
"Internet troll. In Internet slang, a troll ( /troʊl, trɒl/) is a person who starts quarrels or upsets people on the Internet to distract and sow discord by posting inflammatory and digressive, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community"
No-one posts as much digressive, extraneous, or off-topic messages than you. Nor starts as many quarrels as you.
So Troll all you want. But its meta trolling to insert the notion of someone else's supposed trolling as if it were some compelling response when in fact it is what you continuously do. Not to mention blatant hypocrisy. |

Milley confirms previous reports that he received an unclassified, unsigned order to withdraw all U.S. forces from Afghanistan by Jan. 15, apparently arbitrary plans during Trump's lame-duck term to fulfill a campaign promise and stymie incoming administration.

Tom Cotton GENERAL MILLEY, I CAN ONLY CONCLUDE THAT YOUR ADVICE ABOUT STAYING IN AFGHANISTAN WAS REJECTED. I’M SHOCKED TO LEARN THAT YOUR ADVICE WASN’T SOUGHT UNTIL AUGUST 25 ON STAYING PAST THE AUGUST 31 DEADLINE. I UNDERSTAND THAT YOU’RE THE PRINCIPAL MILITARY ADVISER; THAT YOU ADVISE, YOU DON’T DECIDE. THE PRESIDENT DECIDES. BUT IF ALL THIS IS TRUE, GENERAL MILLEY, WHY HAVEN’T YOU RESIGNED?’
Gen
AS A SENIOR MILITARY OFFICER, RESIGNING IS A REALLY SERIOUS THING. IT’S A POLITICAL ACT, IF I’M RESIGNING IN PROTEST. MY JOB IS TO PROVIDE ADVICE. MY STATUTORY RESPONSIBILITY IS TO PROVIDE LEGAL ADVICE, OR BEST MILITARY ADVICE, TO THE PRESIDENT… THE PRESIDENT DOESN’T HAVE TO AGREE WITH THAT ADVICE. HE DOESN’T HAVE TO MAKE THOSE DECISIONS JUST BECAUSE WE’RE GENERALS, AND IT WOULD BE AN INCREDIBLE ACT OF POLITICAL DEFIANCE FOR A COMMISSIONED OFFICER TO JUST RESIGN BECAUSE MY ADVICE IS NOT TAKEN. THIS COUNTRY DOESN’T WANT GENERALS FIGURING OUT WHAT ORDERS WE ARE GOING TO ACCEPT AND DO OR NOT. THAT’S NOT OUR JOB. THE PRINCIPLE OF CIVILIAN CONTROL OF THE MILITARY IS ABSOLUTE — IT’S CRITICAL TO THIS REPUBLIC.’
And In addition to that, just from a personal standpoint, my dad didn't get a choice to resign at Iwo Jima,"
"And those kids there at Abbey Gate, they don't get a choice to resign, and I'm not going to turn my back on them," Milley said in "I'm not gonna resign– they can't resign, so I'm not going to resign, there's no way."
He added, "if the orders are illegal, we're in a different place, but if the orders are legal, from civilian authority, I intend to carry them out."
It’s seems Tom Cotton a former Captain thinks ones personal feeling should come before ones Duty..
Yet he condemned Jan 6th no quarter for insurrectionists. Those who attacked the Capitol today should face the full extent of federal law.
But blocked the Jan6th commission? And he questioned Milley principles ? Does he own any mirrors?
