        Thats not what the article said. These brave honorable people are being discharged without a reason or very vague reasons at best .

        Do we really want anyone serving in our military that fails a background check? That’s always been a requirement. Many of all origins are dismissed all the time. Yet why not make an issue about immigrants.

        Careful that AP release is a little vague. Folks can be released if they fail their background checks before they go to boot camp. Now if they are using their immigration status to fail them on said checks then that’s wrong. Just take this with a grain of salt

        The headline is vague, but for those of us who read the article it’s quite clear. Read the article before commenting.

        I did read it. And my statement still is correct. This has been going on in past administrations as well. It’s how the military works. Until u graduate from boot you r not a member of the military.
