In april 2020, Vanessa Guillén, a 20-year-old Army private, was bludgeoned to death by a fellow soldier at Fort Hood, in Texas. The killer, aided by his girlfriend, burned Guillén's body.

Guillén, the daughter of Mexican immigrants, grew up in Houston, and her murder sparked outrage across Texas and beyond.

Shortly after her remains were discovered, President Donald Trump himself invited the family to the White House. I can help you out with the funeral, I'll help—I'll help you with that," he said. "I'll help you out.

Five months later, the secretary of the Army, Ryan McCarthy, announced the results of an investigation. McCarthy cited numerous "leadership failures" at Fort Hood and relieved or suspended several officers, including the base's commanding general.

Trump asked for an update on the McCarthy investigation. Christopher Miller, the acting secretary of defense (Trump had fired his predecessor, Mark Esper, three weeks earlier, writing in a tweet, "Mark Esper has been terminated"), was in attendance, along with Miller's chief of staff, Kash Patel. At a certain point, according to two people present at the meeting, Trump asked, "Did they bill us for the funeral? What did it cost?"

According to attendees, and to contemporaneous notes of the meeting taken by a participant, an aide answered: Yes, we received a bill; the funeral cost $60,000.

Trump became angry. "It doesn't cost 60,000 bucks to bury a fucking Mexican!" He turned to his chief of staff, Mark Meadows, and issued an order: "Don't pay it!" Later that day, he was still agitated. "Can you believe it?" he said, according to a witness. "Fucking people, trying to rip me off."

"I don't want them. It doesn't look good for me"

Certainly sounds like the blob

Trumpy says a civilian award is MUCH BETTER cause the guys who get a Medal of Honor are "either in very bad shape because they've been hit so many times by bullets, or they're dead."

Tell us about the time Trump carjacked the Secret Service. I LOVE that story - so badass!

The topic is Trump's disrespect for our military.

It's all already been debunked, Retard.

Not up to the point where I posted in the topic, retard.

Up to the point I posted, no one who was in the room had been quoted as denying Trump said it.

As I said, we need someone who was in the room to deny it, and I provided Patel and Meadows as examples of people who were in the room who I would rely on to discredit the claim.

So here you go:

Regarding Trump’s “fucking Mexican” comment, Pfeiffer wrote: “President Donald Trump never said that. This is an outrageous lie from The Atlantic two weeks before the election.” He provided statements from Patel and a spokesman for Meadows, who denied having heard Trump make the statement. Via Pfeiffer, Meadows’s spokesman also denied that Trump had ordered Meadows not to pay for the funeral.

Patel and Meadows are liars

You mean a false story proves Trump's disrespect of our military? Not sure how that does it, but you do you.

 

[PeanutGallery]

Patel and Meadows are liars

Of course they are. Because the writer of the story is a beacon of journalistic integrity that can't be besmirched by mere mortals.

 

[TNHarley]

This sounds made up. And even if it wasnt, 60K for a funeral? BS someone was taking advantage of the situation.

The topic is Trump's disrespect for our military.

This topic is a complete fabrication. Are you really going with the "Fake but accurate" trope?

Pathetic.

No. Because they are

No
You are just the last to know.
Your echo chamber Cult does you a disservice.

Not in the real world

No. Because they are

Something tells me that if Patel and Meadows backed the story, they would be considered honest men according to you. They're liars. All humans are. The writer's lied when he wrote the story. This is a desperate hit piece this close to Election Day because it's looking like Trump is going to become President-elect again next month. I'll take the word of the soldier's sister and the family attorney's word over anonymous sources. At least they have enough balls to go on the record.

Nope. I’ve been pointing out what a POS Patel is for a LONG time
