        My hope is that the people who are okay with this but aren't enlisted will be drafted for the wars that these RepubliNazis get us into.

        There is no more news - it's all narrative. He got discharged because he didn't pass the background check, a protocol implemented during the Obama administration when the program came across some issues with these recruits.

        Hmm, I'm pretty sure a contract was signed and the USA has broken it without cause. Who can take this tort to court?

        Very strange story. What we need to know is, "Why were these people discharged?" Were they discharged at an above average rate?
