Mark Bissonneette, who violated a non-disclosure agreement Navy SEALS are subjected to by revealing elements of the raid on Osama bin Laden.

Bissonnette, who wrote “No Easy Day” under the pseudonym Mark Owen, will give the U.S. government all profits and royalties from the book or movie rights. The proceeds already total more than $6.6 million. He will have four years to pay the bulk of that.

The payments were outlined in settlement documents filed in U.S. District Court in Virginia.

According to the settlement, Bissonnette also has 30 days to pay $100,000 from the proceeds of presentations he gave using slides that were not approved by the department.

      Every bit of that makes more sense than what Trump has actually said.

              I don’t think you really want me to explain it. I know you can figger it out.

              Try getting really really really ookey and then take it to the 20th power.

    That Seal is silly, he can’t make money off of wars, only cheney can do that.

    • Larry Schmitt August 21st, 2016 at 10:38

      Didn’t he trademark that?

      • Suzanne McFly August 21st, 2016 at 10:48

        I believe this Seal is the first proof we have of the trademark.
