We want to speak directly to members of the Military and the Intelligence Community.

NOTE from me

The Democratic veterans in Congress who call out the service members to disobey orders will not be penalized for free speech.

The service members who disobey orders will face consequences and penalties.

That is the difference.

Democrats intentionally redacted the name of the "victim" in the Epstein emails they released.

The unreacted version shows that it was Virginia Guiffre.

@CynicalPublius Yes, Google is misinterpreting the rules

“. . . information must be approved for public release by an appropriate authorizing official before it is released, even if it is unclassified."

This quote was fed into google.

I fed in the longer, complete quote

“. . . information must be approved for public release by an appropriate authorizing official before it is released by any military member, DoW civilian employee or contract employee, even if it is unclassified.”

- still misinterpreted

@CynicalPublius I believe that Google interprets this from an authoritative perspective. The authority is the mainstream press.

The press is using Google, and Google is parroting their thinking in answer.
