The United States of America has only two enemies: The Democrat Party and the Main stream Media. Either can do more damage than any foreign foe. Together they are murder.

Probably one of the many Obama political officers pushed during his tenure.

Even that photo is annoying. Why the hell does a man in that position sit there grinning like a moron? In many parts of the world grinning like that with no reason is a sign of being simpleminded.

Pull up a photo of Halsey, Nimitz, King, Kincaid. They all look fairly pissed off about something.

His number one concern was not keeping the carrier available. <--- THIS

We are down a carrier. Think about that. china has basically carried out an act of war and already took out a carrier. And we're standing around with our pants down around our ankles while Xi laughs his ass off.

He might be innocent of leaking it. But he isn’t innocent of the content.

Exactly. Bottom line, America has 11 fleet carriers. Is this goober really among the top 11 men in America for this job?

No freakin’ way. We can do better and that is ALL that matters.

The MSM will try to protect him.

You will notice it at the next press conference when they grill DJT.

He must not have ever seen the movie “Twelve O’Clock High”. I understand that it was used for years in leadership training courses in the military.

Maybe he just wanted off that poisoned ship by any means necessary.

So you’ve moved the target. Now it doesn’t matter whether I used the word “if.” I repeat. If he leaked this to the media he should be removed. Sorry you can’t handle it.

He should be court marshaled and then sent to the brig. Leaking out this kind of info to our enemies is a serious breach of security.
______________________

Absolutely. The kind of info he transmitted would only be allowed sent encrypted at Top Secret and compartmentalized or higher for extremely limited sets of eyes. To have that kind of letter leaked can only lead to one result. And the penalty should be every bit as harsh as you suggest.

He should be gone.. I mentioned to my wife that his complaining was pathetic and he’s obviously not a leader.

F’ing Navy better quit this bull shi! or we will have no Navy. The commander of a aircraft carrier is one hell worth more than all the dung heads in Washington.

Perhaps he was better suited to command the USS Harvey Milk.

The letter should have been Top Secret. The readiness of a major ship is not unclassified.
