The U.S. justice system is a lot like its foreign policy:
Literally doesn't apply in this situation. NCIS are not street cops and they have no interest in foreign policy.
Their sole duty is to investigate crimes under the UCMJ. This is necessary as the Navy operates outside federal jurisdiction due to the nature of their work, and must be able to prosecute criminals at sea.
Sure, no interest in foreign policy
Breaches of it of course. The very textbook example is sending classified documents to an unsecured recipient.
Setting foreign policy? Making mandates? Villainizing countries?
Dude get your head adjusted.
Hot damn you must be an engineer or something, building those rocket-propelled goalposts like that
Imagine willfully misunderstanding jurisdiction
Imagine thinking military law enforcement can ever be apolitical. I bet you think ICE isn't a tool for controlling labor because it doesn't outright say that on their site
I'm speaking from technical expertise while you continue to throw emotional, specious false equivalence.
Have a nice day knowing the NCIS doesn't give a fuck about China, they only care about the crime which was committed.
Sounds like buzzword cope to me but ok
An expert who doesnt understand the institutional function of MPs lmao
