    I love that he does that but why the fuck does he have to do that?

    Disney can’t set aside a couple of days a quarter and treat some kids to an experience? A gajillion dollars isn’t enough?

      and 1 that suspiciously starting, posting posts about how he loves the VA right around the election time, and doesnt denounce the gop for attacking/defunding VA healthcare. he does act like he is one of the vets. he apparently posts quite frequently on reddit, for a celebrity. his roles does make sense, its almost always some in position of power in shows, like police chief,etc.

    too bad hes a republican, and only Showed up on reddit ALOT, and social media during THE election to drum up support for the gop, how coincidental. and had an excuse why he left “hollywood” because of his childs passing, but i suspect he is seeing which the winds is blow politically, and he likely wont be getting more roles in HW because of that. he was called in posts where is completely silent on the gop attack on VA care.

      IF the GOP was fully funding the VA and supporting it we would not need him and his organization and then his grift would be over and he would actually have to work as an actor. He found his niche and rolled with it. There is no doubt he is doing some good but I think he could also push to have the VA funded for all veterans which he does not.

      Supporting kids who parents died when they were young, and showing them life doesn’t suck?

      It’s disneyland, not a army training camp. Wtf are you talking about.

          But doesn’t hurt to make them believe otherwise for a while…

          That being said, Disneyland definitely aren’t Trump supporters lol… And, even less Desantis Supporters at this time

          He does.

          I looked it up. He does this for first responders families too

          The headline is very likely incorrect and simply copied from Reddit

          Who are you supporting exactly? Do you do any volunteer work yourself? I’m guessing no…

              You seem perfectly ok with assumptions… Unless they don’t benefit you

              Like, calling them all terrorists (there are literally people in the military who are entirely support roles and may go to war but never shoot a gun). You also assume the title is correct, whereas, it didn’t take much to realise its likely wrong.

              And yeah, thats coming from a leftie Australian who hates Trump and only knows 2 people in the military (one was an asshole who I didn’t get along with, and another is a cleaner in the navy)…

              But, well, maybe you HAVE volunteered? So what have you done to volunteer all those victims of the “terrorists”, you are so passionate about? If its nothing, then you’re on par with him still

        Then he should bring the orphans of those killed by US terrorists to a theme park.

        Or maybe he had a hard time finding those because unlike the people fighting the United States, US terrorists love killing children.

          So what are you doing to help? Oh yeah… Absolutely f**k all…

          People like you don’t ever volunteer or help anyone in real life. Instead, you just try to look for any case where you can bully people… And this is apparently one of those cases.

          The Gary Sinase Foundation actually helps all fallen service people (including first responders), so, its possible that this same flight had kids of fire fighters and police on board too.

              You’re right. You’re not

              You’re just attacking people so you can pretend you’re helping . People like trump do the same.

              Maybe use that energy to actually Google, and in 5s you work out the headline came from reddit. Multiple links suggest it’s first responders too

          Supporting kids who parents died is bad? Wtf is wrong with you!

          I’m not a pro-military guy at all… But, this is a stand up act… It’s disneyland, he didn’t bring them to a propaganda camp and give them a speech to encourage them to join the military (if anything, Disneyland would inspire the opposite).

          Also, the people I generally see calling other people bootlickers are generally far-right sovcit dumbasses, who try to use that instead of providing an argument. You don’t need to emulate that behavior

              Which orphans are you helping?

              His organisation also helps the orphans and families of first responders too apparently. So it’s not exclusively military

              In what way. Be specific. Bringing all the kids together, to highlight all the parents dying and traumatising their kids is such great propaganda

              Nothing about this encourages anyone to join the military. In fact, pretty sure military leaders prefer to hide that people are dying in their wars

              “OH DAD, join the military and die, so we can go to disneyland.”

                  That’s like saying helping homeless people glamorises being homeless.

                  Meanwhile, I’m betting you help nobody (similar to Trump, treating people like asses and abusing them isn’t the same as doing something)

                  Also, I actually googled it and his organisation helps first responders too families too, so it’s possible the headline is wrong

      He’s paying for that trip with all the tax cut money he got from the GOP. Probably found a way to funnel it through a nonprofit for earning more tax deductions later. He probably wouldn’t have to take any kids with fallen soldier parents if his preferred candidate didn’t start a stupid decades-long war in Afghanistan.

      Despite being a lifelong supporter of the Republican Party, Sinise refused to endorse or vote for Donald Trump in the 2016 presidential election,[citation needed] or in the 2024 election and also criticized Trump after the then-candidate questioned McCain’s status as a war hero because he was captured as a prisoner of war

        but he doesnt denounce the rest of the gop for consistently attacking the VA/funding cuts. i find his sudden appeareance in SC wierd because it happen around the time of the election time, almost as if to drum up support. and is coincidental “im leaving Hollywood for x reasons” around that time.

          What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little shit? Ill have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and Ive been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and Im the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. Youre fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and thats just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little clever comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldnt, you didnt, and now youre paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it.
