The Space Force officer who was removed from his command post for condemning Marxism and critical race theory is leaving the military.
Lt. Col. Matthew Lohmeier told The Epoch Times’ “American Thought Leaders” that his last day in the service will be Sept. 1.
“I wrote a letter to then-Acting Secretary of the Air Force explaining certain circumstances, which I don’t plan to make public, but also requesting an early retirement, and a separation honorably from the service,” he said. “And they’ve denied me an early retirement, but agreed that they would separate me. And so my family and I have decided that that’s the best course of action for us right now, given the circumstances.”
“I believe I’m able to continue serving my country outside of the service and out of uniform, perhaps in a better way than I was able to, given the circumstances, in uniform at the moment,” he added.

for calling out our sworn enemy, only in America...
Didn’t they let Andrew McCabe retire and get his pension
Maybe Private contractors can hire him to help with Afghan rescues then
Losing your pension is a big deal, especially after 15+ years in. On the other hand, it is quite possible Lohmeier has other opportunities waiting in the wings.
I did search on the title. And left in the ‘exclusive’ that the Epoch Times had in front of it. Oh well... I thought you weren’t supposed to modify the title.
Private contractors know he’s radioactive. They don’t want to piss off the Deep State.
So if he had praised Marxism, he would have been promoted.
Well, if the US could put someone, who voted for the Communist Party presidential ticket in 1976, into the position as CIA Director, I suppose they could fire someone in the military who opposes Marxism
This is not the country I remember.
Wait until the military Jab Mandate kicks in! You’ll see retirements and everything else from our Brave enlisted folks.
Thus leaving our military ripe for the PRC/Ruskies/Talibidenban pickings!
Q was created by the NSA/CIA/ETC to out conservatives. Nothing more nothing less.
I recently read his book - very good, recommend to all.
“...requesting an early retirement, and a separation honorably from the service,” he said. “And they’ve denied me an early retirement, but agreed that they would separate me. And so my family and I have decided that that’s the best course of action for us right now, given the circumstances.” “
OK, somebody is going to have to explain that one to me. He’s being separated from the military on his own request but they are denying him retirement? What does that mean? Are they denying him retirement as some sort of punishments? Or are they merely delaying it by forcing him onto some kind of inactive reserve list until such time as they can process that retirement?
>> I thought you weren’t supposed to modify the title.
This is true.
I recalled the thread from yesterday, and figured I post the link.
His his supervisors should go first, after spending a decade
in prison.
Marxism support is essentially insurrection.
