The secretary of the Navy and the admiral who leads the SEALs have threatened to resign or be fired if plans to expel a commando from the elite unit in a war crimes case are halted by President Trump, administration officials said Saturday.
The Navy is proceeding with the disciplinary plans against the commando, Chief Petty Officer Edward Gallagher...
...Defense Secretary Mark T. Esper and General Mark Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, conveyed to the president that if he followed up that tweet with a direct order, there would be huge consequences: Mr. Trump would lose Mr. Spencer and Admiral Green, further infuriate his top military leadership and do untold damage to decades of military justice doctrine, according to administration officials.

Buh Bye!!
Let the Obama prig resign.....he is a stain on the US Navy Command. Apparently he has forgotten how to follow orders.
The President need to get control of such blatant insubordination.
Time for those two guys to go and anybody that agrees with them to follow. No big loss. Hope Trump fires them.
Have your resignations on his desk by supper.
Think Sally Yates.
This has gone on long enough. POTUS Trump, if you can be ruthless, now would be a good time.
See ya;Get the hell out;
Looks like Trump is again over the target. Love our President
POTUS should immediately fire all of them!
Time to rid the military of EVERY ONE of the Ophonybama “Perfumed Princes!”
Do it and do it now, President Trump!
Hire people who will watch your back and support your efforts to Make America Great Again!
Remember when Dorkbama, the Muslim eunuch quota low-T poster boy fired all those generals - - - with tepid reaction (if any) from the NYT?
I eagerly await what’s going to happen when the Trumpster fires SecNav and Admiral’s *ss.
Expect great weeping and gnashing of teeth (or more appropriately, computer keyboards).
I suspect there are any number of good Captains out there ready to take over in the event of sudden Admiral vacancies.
Pretty sure that any top brass that wants to proceed with the discipline plan doesn’t belong in their position.
Right. A simple, firm, “You’re fired!” will do very nicely
Who the F### do these people think they are? First State Dept thinks they should be running foreign policy, and these obama pansy, pro homo turds think they run the military above their CiC.
The President is your boss, and you are to follow orders like those under you.
Kind of hard for the Left to claim that Trump is paranoid regarding ‘his Deep State’ when his OWN MILITARY will not carry out his orders.
Admiral, you’re fired.
The discussion period of this is over, and the President has directed subordinates to do as directed.
The next step is “You’re FIRED!” If for nothing else but to show who is the boss. Set the right example. Insubordination is running rampant throughout the government, and it’s past time to put an end to it. This one is OK for that stand IMO.
He’s of the resistance, the Sally Yeats of the Navy.
This is insubordination.
Fire his a$$.
