    The thing is, I still don't think that's Constitutional. If I remember correctly, anybody acting as a agent of the state is subject to Constitutional restrictions, whether they're paid government employees or a contracted private organization. It would be the same as hiring a private security firm to enter people's houses without a warrant because the police can't. I wouldn't be surprised if this goes to the SC and gets shot down.

    Notice they’re not going after BLM, DEM/Marxists or the gangbangers infesting the military like roaches.

    Now why are you letting some silliness like the Constitution get in the way?

    ETA: Regardless, it's completely legal as long as they are just looking over social media posts that are in the "public domain" and then informing the .mil that Private Snuffy said some things that were borderline questionable. It's just an extension of "See something, say something" that's been going on for years. The .mil can then check it out and see if it violates policy and act appropriately.

    Don't post stupid shit on social media. Here endeth the lesson.

    It's been a well known fact to watch your mouth on social media if you don't want trouble. But when they start talking about using private firms in order to circumvent the Constitution, that suggests getting around the 4th Amendment. It suggests hacking private communication, or searching private property without a warrant. And obviously, the Biden Administration doesn't believe in the Bill of Rights and has pretty much said so, but the recent SC ruling suggests that they may still feel otherwise.

    I firmly agree with your stance in the matter. But you know as well as I do that dog isn't going to hunt when someone decides to label such acts as "potential domestic terrorism" and use that angle.

    Face facts here, we're about five minutes away from a lot of conservative values being labeled as such. You know as well as I do January 6th scared the living shit of out of a lot of people in Congress and the Executive Branch and they will be looking for any way they can to negate that threat going forward. Purging the military of conservative values can only mean one thing down the road.

    Of course not. Those types are their minions, their useful idiots.

    It's very clear, they're doing their level best to make sure only the "right" type of people are in the ranks. For a reason, which should be obvious.

    Of COURSE it's not constitutional! But neither is committing a coup by stealing a presidential election, right?
