Hey, experts — admit what you got so wrong on Trump’s tariffs. "Yet their arguments against tariffs revealed a fundamental misunderstanding: They decried tariffs as uniquely harmful, while ignoring that the same logic applies to all taxes.". #tariffs.

A soldier carrying a firearm on a military base without authorization can result in fines, imprisonment, and/or other military penalties. But suppose you are the attacker who plans on murdering many soldiers. He could face the death penalty or life imprison. So any penalties from.

The suspect was identified as a male Army sergeant, an official confirmed. Soldiers other than MPs are banned, except with strict limits, from carrying guns. The regulations assure the only person with a gun was the person who wanted to hurt others.

5 soldiers shot at Georgia’s Fort Stewart base. GHW Bush put ban on soldiers carrying on base. MPs can carry, but like police in a city, they can't cover everything. Regs slightly loosed in 2016. Soldiers carried on base in Iraq & AFG without problems. #2a.
