Much respect for the Lt. Col speaking out and risking his carrier as an officer in the Marines. He is 100% right!

The top leaders love to preach accountability until it is them. Then all of a sudden it's not such a big of a deal. Let's just sweep that under the rug, and forget about it.

Yes under normal circumstances this is not tolerated. However, are we living under normal circumstances? I hope this triggers a wave of military people speaking out.

Good luck, but you’re on your own, good sir! Patriots have your back as much as they had Trump’s back in 2020.

Erik Prince said Lt. Scheller has ‘balls’ to speak out like this...(this morning’s War Room)

Strange coincidence, I was just wondering to myself what career military personnel think about this fiasco since it is probably against military regs to criticize superiors and to do so would end their career.

I know a retired marine Lt. Col. that is now a big time lobbyist for a defense contractor and he’s as slimey as they come and doesn’t give two sh!ts about anything except money, but this Lt. Col. Scheller appears to be one of the good guys. Good to know there are still some honorable people in the military.

Looks like Buckwheat missed this one- there is at least one Marine Officer patriot left. Thank you and may God bless you and watch your back, Marine Lt. Col Scheller.

President Trump made America Great Again, after what kbama did to it- and President Trump was called hitler

Biden gets a dozen + service-members killed, screws up a withdrawal royally, allows infected illegals to pour across the border, shuts down gas and oil production, then begs the middle east for more gas and oil, on and on and on it goes, and the press think he’s Mother Theresa, and the best president ever- praising him for a ‘stellar job’ for evacuating people who are forced to flee for their lives because of his incompetent withdrawal plan

And the media sit there without cracking a smile and tell us they are not biased?

Soon to be one less officer with balls and integrity in the post-Code Pink Marine Corps. A lot of AMERICANS have been cowering under the bed in fear of getting “canceled.” Any chance this man inspires them to get up on their hind legs and start barking back?

And now we know why he is a leader of men and a Battalion Commander in the Marine Corps. I just hope the Marine Corps still values warriors with large gonads.

...latest postings indicate he is now out of a job.... has been relieved of his duties due to some bulls**t charge...dereliction of duty or telling the truth or failure to kiss his higher-ups’ rear ends....he’ll be on the Fox News circuit in the not-too-distant future......
