Pardon him now and Fire the commander and take his retirement!!
Looks like Capt. Rosenbloom may not be very smart taking on the CinC.
I just got home and I hope he’s already been fired. Looks like POTUS will have to fire a few more Generals, Admirals or whatever it takes to whip these services into shape the way it should be..........
Does a “tweet” constitute a “direct order”?
If true, appears as if the Captain is looking for a general discharge...
Fire his sorry azz, strip him down to ensign and boot him out without a retirement check or a security clearance.
This has become a political show, which is too bad. Regardless of his military history, did or did he not kill unarmed or injured people in his custody? Did he kill civilians? Did he target non-combantants? I read various reports over the past months and wonder about all of this. Just because he is a “hero” doesn’t mean he is immune to justice. Curious.
Capt. Matthew D. Rosenbloom might actually be stupider than AOC. I’ve never heard of anyone in the chain of command ever defying the orders of the President.
I hope Rosenbloom enjoys standing in the unemployment line.

That should be a career ender. No flag for him.
The Deep State™ has long tentacles.
It hasn’t worked out too well for others who have tried it before. Captain Rosenbloom, you might want to start thinking about retirement very soon, before the decision is made for you.
Some of us have not been following this story closely can somebody please explain without being a smart aleck please I really beg of you. One who is Gallagher ? And what is he accused of? Literally without editorial what is it? who is his Commander?
Bradley Manning got better treatment for leaking information that got our soldiers killed.
Also looks like Capt. Rosie is looking for early “retirement”.
One of the first things you learn at boot camp is the “chain of command”.
While this will change, especially at the lower end, from duty station to duty station, but all alone at the very top at EVERY military installation is the Commander in Chief.
Currently, the name Donald J Trump occupies that position.
In the military, there is no higher authority. Not Congress, not the courts, NO ONE!
Me thinks this Capt has something to hide and wants to shut up the service member he is trying to toss in the Brig. No Brig. Gen. for this guy and a general discharge, unless POTUS has him CM’d.
Send the commander to the brigg.
Rosenbloom needs to be reassigned to the South Pole weather station.
