This makes me sick. Apparently this guy is still active duty. (Or I suspect WAS until this came out).

But apparently he's been posting garbage like this for a long time. Why is he still in uniform? Why have none of his equals reported this BS?

And it sounds like his West Point mentor encouraged this. How could a military academy employ a teacher like this???

Insane!


On August 7, Rapone posted a photo on his Instagram account of himself in his Army uniform wearing a Democratic Socialists of America Membership nametag that says, “official socialist organizer.”

Rapone’s Instagram account was taken down Tuesday evening.

Rapone has also tweeted a number of provocative statements, including calling Defense Secretary Jim Mattis “the most vile, evil f*ck in the current administration” on June 7 from Columbus, Georgia.

A spokeswoman for the 10th Mountain Division confirmed to Breitbart News that Rapone had started Ranger School at Fort Benning, Georgia — near Columbus — in February 2017 but did not complete the course.

On February 11, he posted an article titled “Know Your (Gun) Rights! A Primer for Radicals — IT’S GOING DOWN.” He also reposted a meme from a group called Anarchist People of Color criticizing “white privilege.”

Rapone posted on several forums in support of Chelsea Manning, the Army soldier who went to jail for leaking classified intelligence to WikiLeaks. He posted January 18 on Facebook, “May we all learn from her example of what integrity and strength of conviction truly entails.”

Sometime last year, he posted a picture on Instagram of an Antifa flag in his room next to a print of Che Guevara. “New room decor … until it’s flying proudly in the streets. #AntiFa,” he wrote, according to a picture obtained before he took down his account.

Rapone has also posted on Facebook a picture of himself holding up the Communist Manifesto, with his Army dress uniform hanging in the closet in the background and a number of posts showing opposition for Trump policies and administration officials and support for Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) at least since 2015.




According to photos on Rapone’s Facebook page, he became close to Hosein, a Ph.D. in Islamic history from the University of Chicago. The two appear to have traveled together to the Taj Mahal in March 2014, according to pictures posted on his Facebook page.

On March 18, 2014, Hosein posted on his Facebook page, “Back from the Taj [Mahal] and it delivered.” Two days later, on March 20, 2104, Hosein posted a picture of himself, wearing a long tunic, and Rapone, wearing a turban and a long tunic, with the caption: “The brothers are gonna work it out.”

Two days later, on March 20, 2104, Hosein posted a picture of himself, wearing a long tunic, and Rapone, wearing a turban and a long tunic, with the caption, “The brothers are gonna work it out.”

On March 23, 2014, Rapone posted about anti-corporatism and racism. On March 24, 2014, Rapone posted a picture of himself and Hosein in front of the Taj Mahal.

Later that year, on August 19, 2014, Rapone posted a picture that showed them in a classroom with another soldier. “The Intelligentsia,” the caption read. Hosein was tagged in the picture, suggesting they were Facebook friends at the time.

A review of Rapone’s Facebook page shows that over time, since 2014, his posts became increasingly anti-racism, anti-Israel, pro-Muslim, pro-Communist, anti-military, and anti-police.



And while he was AT West Point, he wrote an article calling to abolish WEST POINT. Why is he still in the Army?!?!?!?


On January 5, 2015, he posted a Slate.com article calling for the abolishment of West Point.

I am fairly certain they are usually good at concealing their affiliation and beliefs even after they work for the military.

Just that dumbass must express his commieness in public.

I wonder if becoming a professional soldier would be all that high on his list of career goals if the country he is serving didn't have a giant capitalist gorilla backing him.

He's former enlisted and was w/ Ranger Batt out of Savannah (1st or 3rd? I can never remember), w/ one tour to Afghanistan before he went green to gold.

Wonder what he was like in Batt. Might be interesting to check out socnet for threads. Surely someone over there knew him or knows someone who did.

True, one of the most obnoxious leftists I know was an intelligence officer in the USAF (until he got kicked out for sodomizing one of his underlings).

I was actually very surprised when I was in how many people were left leaning. But then you gotta remember, it's a decent pay check for not needing to do know a lot just being able to listen a lot. I know tons of people who stayed in because of the paycheck and health insurance even though they had no business being there.

The part that really pisses me off is that it appears as if his academy assigned mentor actually groomed him into this commie loving, American hating douche. Why would the Army employ an extremist who turns cadets into commies?

I gonna say it. This behavior is treasonous.

Being a commie should be automaticly disqualifying for someone in the position to defend our nation.

Truth is, the military is basically a Communist environment and does attract a lot of people who see it as a government jobs program and not "defenders of the nation".

From what I've read, he was relieved for cause at the Ranger Bat.

Very interesting which lends all the more credence to the idea he is targeting a career elsewhere and just using the WP diploma to open doors. A number of officers were cashiered for openly disrespecting Presidents Clinton and Obama under Article 88 of the UCMJ. Apparently Rapone has openly disparaged SecDef Mattis. If he did so with open connection to his rank and active duty status, then I'd suggest an Art 88 court-martial for the lad -- while a LOM follows him through the Army, a UCMJ conviction will follow him through life.

Uhh...his hair is WAAAAAAAAAY too long. Is he really a cadet or is this photoshopped?

They must have totally dropped any and all standards since my brother was there in the late 1980's and they were dropping standards even then!

MrPrena

I agree with standard went much lowered and/or admission didn't do their job.
Just look at the recent AF incident.

Remember: You've got all those cadets who were nominated by their representative or senator. Remember how many of those representatives and senators are Democrats. Of course they're going to nominate those with communist/socialist sympathies...

Since he didn't fulfill his 5 year commitment due to his own misbehavior I hope the US Government bills him for his education.

What sucks is that someone else didn't get into West Point so this toolbag could.

Must have been quite the physical specimen to make it to Ranger Batt as an enlistedman, complete a tour (or 2?) with them, and yet, he had to have messed up somewhere to be booted for not meeting standards. And he then somehow makes it to and through West Point.

Well, at least he now gets to count on the self-serving "communists" in America. Now, without the structure of American greatness propping him up, he will get to learn how utterly pointless that milieu is.

Every.damn.penny.


Military experts say it’s rare for an officer out of West Point to receive an other-than-honorable discharge. Greg Rinckey, an attorney specializing in military law, claimed that this opens an opportunity for the military to seek money back from Rapone for the education he received as he didn’t fulfil the five-year service obligation for all the graduates.

As I understand it, he made it through RIP (or whatever they're calling RIP these days) and was assigned to a Ranger battalion and served overseas with them. He got booted out of Ranger school as an officer. I think he failed too many patrols and was offered a "day 1 restart" (IOW he would have had to start Ranger school all over again) and elected to quit the course instead.

He was "released/removed for standards" from Batt and then went to WP. From there, he went to, and was subsequently booted from, Ranger School.

Since he was allowed to continue in the military, it's likely he was RFSed from Batt for either physical reasons (though I cannot imagine how), or his attitude or something. Since it's an internal mechanism it has no true UCMJ weight behind it.

That's the first thing that came to mind when I saw this news. Going to West Point is a tremendous honor. What this asshat did with that opportunity is just a sin.

Looks like no firearms ownership for this tool either.
