God help us all. And I really mean that.

Maybe Trump will make him Sec Def, in his next administration.

Khrushchev won without firing a shot. Now it is illegal to criticize the leadership of the country.

It’s senior military we should demand a psych eval
He provided his resignation-what more did they expect.
These actions just pile onto issues detailed in his forthcoming book and media appearances.

He need a jury at his court martial. There is no way a jury of his pears is going to unanimously convict him.

we are
1930s Germany
1940s Russia
1950s China

Makes me wonder if MG Smedley Butler is found on the Marine Corps Commandant’s Professional Reading List?

This is unconscienceable.

It is long past time for a TRUE insurrection.

Not drinking a beer from Pelosi’s minibar.

Not putting feet up on a desk.

Not moving a podium.

But a TRUE INSURRECTION.

Will they disappear him like the Chinese do?

Uh, peers not pears... :)

Milley and other woke DOD leaders are using this as a warning to any other officers who question the treasonous acts of their superiors.

After he spoke out they put a gag order on him and told him to keep quiet.
At the very least I know he made more posts online.
That’s what they have him on.

America is being crushed into a nasty authoritarian nation. A blind man can see that there will be a very nasty backlash coming. They are not going to stop. Like a high school bully, there is only one way to stop them.
If we do not utterly sodomize DC in the 2022 election, this will end in war.
And that’s assuming we make it that far without these evil usurpers destroying America in war or a grinding depression.

The military doesn’t want smart Officers.

The military wants OBEDIENT Officers.

Now you know why we couldn’t win in Afghanistan.

[Grimmy]

The military can no longer tolerate leaders.

Only managers.

Correct. That's pretty slick: shut up or you're asking for it.

Marine improsoned by Marine corps leadership because he asked leadership to behave with honor, intgrity and accountability in the aftermath of 13 dead marines being lost in a disasterous operation that the leaders claim was a grand success.

I guess this aint your grandpas Marine Corps anymore.
