Yep, that’s what I can’t figure. What’s the big deal about anyway? It’s a terrorist that’s no longer functional. I don’t see any problem, but that’s just me.

Give him a quick beat down, cuff him and escort him off Federal Property, never to return again.

He violated the very things - in the standards of good order and discipline - that he claimed he respects, when he tried to break the chain of command and defy a lawful order he had been given.

If he had any respect at all, he would have acknowledged his mistake and left quietly.

‘What exactly did this guy do wrong, according to the Navy?”

The only charge against him after everything was dropped was he posed with a dead terrorist, just like in Full Metal Jacket. It wasn’t like Gallagher was collecting ears and making necklaces.

The rest of the Swamp looks at this and sees their future. It’s why they’re so deeply dug in on The Resistance.

Yes...FWIU Gallagher was falsely accused of whatever and did jail time. All they could get him on is taking a photo with a dead zipperhead. For some reason they tried to railroad him...they actually did and that’s why he was sent to jail to begin with until another guy told them he killed the goner. ALL of the Navy staff in this fiasco should be fired.

He wanted to be fired so he could make statements like this. Another tool of the Deep State being used to attack Trump.

Unfortunately, it has become apparent that in this respect, I no longer share the same understanding with the Commander in Chief who appointed me, in regards to the key principle of good order and discipline. I cannot in good conscience obey an order that I believe violates the sacred oath I took in the presence of my family, my flag and my faith to support and defend the Constitution of the United States.

The constitution does not mention the Uniform code of Military Justice. It does define the President of the USA as the Commander in Chief. Period. End of story.

“Hmmm... looks like an attempt to create an “impeachable act””

Interesting observation.

“Vindman should be GONE”

Yes, indeed. Big Bump!

That is what this is about. Defy the commander in chief? and be gone.

I don’t think he really understands the full definition of a warfighter.

Well *ssh*l*, I understand the full definition of a warfighter, and I'd rather be in a stack with Chief Gallagher than even in the same theater with you.

“What message does that send to the troops?

The message I get from POTUS is he backs the troops.

The message I get from you is that you're a back stabbing piece of shit and a REMF, who should be keelhauled off the USS Nimitz.

Spencer got caught up in Collin Green’s little FU party to retaliate against Gallagher’s pardon and rank reinstatement. It had zippola to do with proper procedures and everything todo with giving Trump the finger.

Did anyone catch the pent-up hate and rage in this guy when he was on TV expounding on the President? It was palpable - gave me the willies. Even his photo above speaks volumes, take a look.

Good thing this guy is gone...however, he's so consumed with that I'm sure we're going to see more of him......maybe he's signed up with PMSNBC already.

He’s not an employee, he’s an elected official. Big difference, he serves at our pleasure.

Let me see if I have this correct. He is bitching and moaning that PDJT doesn’t understand proper discipline in the services, AND he sneaks behind his direct commander’s back to negotiate a deal with the President, showing lack of understanding of proper discipline and command structure?

UGH! I guess as long as you dried the ears in the sun for a week. /s
