IMO, most of the ‘tweets’ on this subject (and a few others more recently) - both textual and video - that I have seen generated by ‘blue check mark’ DoD accounts clearly violate DoD Directive 1344.10, the prohibition against campaigning and other public policy discussions while in uniform and/or speaking in an official capacity.

Engaging in public debate with civilians about public policy while in uniform and/or speaking in an official capacity is simply not allowable.

Furthermore, I’m not sure why II MEF or the CSM of Space Force have verified Twitter accounts. Subordinate commands, enlisted men and even unit commanders should not be engaging the public on social media. Instead, DoD must have a social media presence for recruiting and public information purposes, then those social media accounts should be few and far between and managed solely by PIOs.

This issue has bothered me for a while. As a lowly postal employee, I knew that political conversations were out of bounds. Did the rules change since I retired 11 years ago? Government employees were not to engage in politics.
