Great. And now we see an important consequence of the transgender ban — to force the sycophant Obamite Generals and Admirals to come out of the closet so they can be told to pack their bags.

I hear there’s a open billet to command the Coast Guard ice station in Antarctica...

Ignoring the Commander-in-Chief? Seems like there ought to be ways of dealing with that real quick.

Bust him down to Captain under Article 15 and hand him his retirement papers.If he refuses...general court martial.

Sounds like refusal to carry out a legal order. Yes/No?

I think that under the UCMJ it would be classified as a "direct order".An order from a non-commissioned officer is called a "lawful order".

U.S. Coast Guard/Handout/
We’re on the Brink of a Major Environmental Disaster. Are We Ready?

The Trump administration is increasing the risk of a serious accident—and a key position in charge of disaster preparedness remains unfilled.

By Emily Atkin, August 3, 2017

Admiral Paul Zukunft, the commandant of the U.S. Coast Guard, knows oil spills. As the lead coordinator for the government’s response to the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill, he directed tens of thousands of responders as they attempted a herculean task: recovering 200 million gallons of crude oil from the Gulf of Mexico. Today, Zukunft admits that task was impossible to complete, and that’s why he knows that drilling for oil in the freezing, unpredictable Arctic Ocean would be far more dangerous than drilling in the Gulf. “I can assure you that if there is an oil spill [in the Arctic], we’re not going to recover all that oil,” he told an audience at the Naval Heritage Center in Washington, D.C. last month. “We don’t know what Mother Nature would do and we don’t know the long term impacts to one of the most pristine environments in the world. Its not an area we want to oil and then find out after the fact.”

>>Trump should have just appointed people with absolutely zero experience in DC/politics
**********************************************************
As history shows us, in the end, when the masses have finally had enough abuse perpetrated against them, they will arise and kick them out. Lather, rinse, repeat.

What President Trump can do NOW is to purge purge purge, and replace with graduates of good Christian and conservative colleges, who will willingly, honestly, and lovingly serve PDJT and We the People.

That would seem to me to be the last hope for restoration by working within the system.

Agree totally - US Army officer for 6 years so I understand that open disobedience has to be dealt with quickly and firmly.

To the previous poster (WMarshal) - I wrote too quickly on the “serving at the pleasure of the President” part. I looked up the commissioning document and it has those words. My apologies...

My son is going to be an officer in the USAF. There is a good chance he will go to pilot training.

He ought to be given a direct order by the President. When he ignores the direct order, he should face a court martial for insubordination. When he is convicted, he should be reduced in grade to seaman and sentenced to twenty years in prison at hard labor (after all we are in a state of national emergency commonly known as war time).

The Cankle swinging from the end of a rope would do it.

With all the spy vs. spy going on, I’m sure we could fill the gallows and make a show out of it.

Everyone knows the Coast Guard is part of the Transportation Dept, right?

The statement made that all officers serve at the pleasure of the president is exactly correct.
