Tennessee Woman Indicted for Stolen Valor
Let’s take inventory…
- Being shot multiple times ? (CHECK)
- Saving her fellow soldiers ? (CHECK)
- Last in her ‘platoon’? to survive ? (CHECK)
- Having a GoFundMe ? (CHECK)
- Having a service dog ? (NOT SURE YET)
- Having “fully bionic abdominal organs” that needed electrical charging X (HOLD EVERYTHING! THIS IS NEW)
Amanda Bass pleaded guilty to pretending to be a wounded Marine for 10 years, scamming charities, churches, and GoFundMe donors out of thousands.
Gold Star Mom Janne Zaccognino—who lost her actual Marine son in Afghanistan—smelled the BS immediately and went full detective.
“She said she was the ONLY survivor of her entire platoon,” Zaccognino said. “A platoon has like 40 people. That’s not a unit, that’s a Final Destination movie.”
The red flags were everywhere: Bass wouldn’t name her unit, had military ID photos where she was smiling in a white t-shirt with a cute bob, and claimed she died multiple times in Afghanistan before doctors gave her chargeable cyborg organs (because apparently she’s part Roomba).
Real Marines looked at her photos and basically said: “This looks like a Glamour Shots session, not military documentation.”
Bass allegedly scammed $8,000 from GoFundMe, got a free HVAC system, a wheelchair ramp, and milked charities while never serving a single day in the military.
She faces sentencing in May and could get decades in prison—plenty of time to charge those bionic organs. She’s currently out on her own recognizance, presumably Googling “do prisons have outlets.”

Want to bet she ended up in that chair doing something equally stupid as Stolen Valor?
Overplayed her bullsh*t.
Go big or go home is a saying but DAMN! Bionic organs! Even this kid didn’t believe that story.
I have to say the rechargeable internal organs was a new twist. I wonder if she would mind passing on the info on where she got them. I could use a replacement kidney.
My guess is they’d have to be Lithium-Ion. Nickel-Cad or Lead-Acid would probably open you up to cancer.
Hope she doesn’t burst into flames while she’s charging. She might burn her house down.
Wonder if someplace like Wounded Warrior or T2T fell for the sob story and gave her a house.
Don’t hear much from Wounded Warrior Project these days. I’m not sure they really recovered from their previous fuckery.
Their ads are all over Fox News along with all those drug company ads. Fortunately, I record most of the shows I regularly watch so I can fast forward through the commercials. After their fuckery supporting POSers, I have never given them a dime. We do support T2T.
I generally don’t watch Fox except when I’m getting ready in the morning, T2T pretty much has the ad market cornered then. Along with a creepy series of ads for a men’s skin care product.
And Rosland Capital for GOLD.
Cancer? That’s why I need a new kidney. BTDTGTTS
Plug a nice 240 into her “outlet” when she hits the slammer. It’s guaranteed to keep her bionics charged up AND make the sentence go by a whole lot faster.
😂
She MAY get 1 year, definitely not decades.
Imagine if you will — out on a hot date, and you have to say “I’m sorry, I need to go home and recharge my liver.” Sort of breaks the mood.
How can people be that gullible? I wonder where she buys here condoms, she’s probably well known.
Sucks that she’s stuck in a wheelchair but no excuse or rationale for this bullshit.
Goofy chick showed up with a Purple Heart and a wheelchair, but the only combat she saw was Black Friday at Best Buy.
No NDSM.
The Brotherhood (and Sisterhood) breathes a collective sigh of relief.
You just don’t know, man, you weren’t there! It was hell!
“She’s part Roomba”!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Given what a Roomba does, the jokes are obvious.
Knew a young Air Force lady at Keesler in 1988. Her name escapes me, but her friends called her “Hoover”. And that’s all I’m saying on the subject.
There was a gal at Ft. Chaffee, Arkansas known as Suck ’em Silly Sally that was notorious among the reservists doing their summer camp there.
I heard about a local Sierra Vista lady that was said to be so popular with the local troops that she was on the in-processing checklist.
sure she’s not part dishwasher? HEYOOOO!
Let’s just address the elephant in the room…
“fully bionic abdominal organs” is code for ‘Vajayjay.’
So… Amanda is a dood?
I don’t want to know that much, it’s already pretty disgusting.
No vest?
Then she’s definitely not legit.
Wonder if she has a Harley trike.
Back in the late 1980’s, Hack Stone was on Recruiting Duty in the Midwest. Driving down the interstate he saw a most unusual sight, a man on a wheelchair driving a motorcycle. The vehicle in question had a ramp attached to the side, and somehow the handlebars extended to the side.
I had a neighbor who used a side car to stow his wheelchair. I never asked it he used a suicide shift or if he had control enough to use the foot shift and brake.
There was a guy in Bisbee that had a trike, kinda looked like a chariot with a springer front end. Had a ramp on the back, dude could just drive his chair in, lock it down, raise the ramp, and go. Kinda like this, but HD based:

Did she include a dog in her con games as well? Asking for a friend.
Stealing a quote from the original (and only good one IMHO) Robocop movie (1987): “Her digestive system is extremely simple. This processor dispenser produces an organic paste that sustains her organs.” Also tastes like baby food.
I thought “Electric Strawberry” was Army.
One more thing that proves she is Bass Ackwards.
This story reminds me of something…
See you next Tuesday
The only rechargeable organ she has probably ever had would be a vibrator.
All anyone had to do was to ask the bitch what battalion she was in at Parris Island, 1st, 2nd or 3rd? Unless they changed it since I was there every real Marine knows that the females all are trained at the 4th Battalion. I caught a lying bitch co-worker years ago with that one. Claimed she was in the 1st Battalion and was in the first female platoon to have all male DI’s. Yeah, right Ho.
Used to sleep till afternoon,
Waking up to an easy tune
My, my, how things have changed
How things have changed.

Well looky there, another social engineering experiment by the 0bamunist puppeteers of Gropey Joe. Note: Per the article, this occurred during the first month of 0’s third term.
I stand corrected my brothers and sisters! I haven’t been to the Island since I left there in October 1981, so I think I’d better get updated to the news. Open foot insert mouth. Don’t I feel like the ass. But I promise to get updated with the Corp’s standards Hack!!!
Since the first coed platoon started the training at MCRD San Diego in Feb 2021 (five years ago). OBTW 4th battalion at PI was disestablished 15 June 2023.
I need to get my old fool ass undated! LOL
