| #7 I commend young Rapone's initiative on his totally genius one-man plan to infiltrate the Army, but taking selfies saying "Communism is going to win" is bad OPSEC. Also, Communism is stupid. |

| #6 Search the archives and ye shall find the answer — I added the archive link to Mr. Rapone’s name in the article, above. A comment to one of the articles, about Mr. Rapone’s West Point mentor being suspended, had a link to this: CHELSEA MANNING INSPIRED COMMUNIST WEST POINT GRADUATE TO INFILTRATE THE MILITARY Many thanks, Victor Emmanuel Ebbaise1246, for having added your bit to our collective knowledge. There was also a post last October which pointed out that West Point had been officially informed about our merry miscreant’s attitudes, to whit (can’t have too many links in a comment or Fred’s spam filters won’t let it post): Army Lieutenant Colonel Robert Heffington, an Academy history professor in 2015, had issued a sworn affidavit alerting senior USMA command about Rapone. And thank goodness we now have a president who is the opposite of his Long-March-requiring predecessor in every way. |

| #1 Wonder if they're going to put a collection on his future earnings for failure to complete the contract? Well, he'll be a 'military' expert for CNN. It's a shoe in. He has an infinite amount of experience than any journalism grad. |
