The U.S. military is warning both active duty and retired service members that no “disrespect” of President Biden will be tolerated.
The Office of Naval Intelligence’s Chief of Staff recently emailed service members to remind them of the Uniform Code of Military Justice. The UCMJ prohibits the public questioning of the President, the Vice President, Congress, or the Secretary of Defense, among others. The email was obtained by the Daily Wire on Friday. It reads as follows:
Given the heightened political and social atmosphere surrounding Afghanistan, it is important to remind our uniformed personnel (active duty and reservists on temporary active duty) and military retirees of their responsibilities and obligations under Article 88 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice and Department of Defense Directive 1344.10. While it is vital to protect the constitutional right of freedom of expression for these groups, consistent with mission accomplishment, national security, and good order and discipline, it’s important to remember certain limitations. Namely, uniformed personnel and military retirees are prohibited from disrespecting senior government leadership (e.g. the President, Vice President, Congress, Secretary of Defense, Service Secretaries, etc.).

Was there a special exemption for LTC Vindermen and his fat ass Col brother?
Good luck with that.
Yet the top brass from the pentagon were allowed to lie, disrespect, appear on the tube and write books on president Trump for four years!!! Screw that!
Agree. As you know we need all MOS’s from all services. I recall being very far away, but; our Air Force 20th SOS got us out. I went though the IOAC in 72-73 with a Marine legend. Buck Clovis CC Coffman. He was the real deal.
Like Lesbian Army Servicewoman Bronson Bragging about Enforcing ‘Martial Law’ on U.S. Citizens: Obey or ‘Become the Enemy’ with Guns ‘Pointed at You’
I’m also retired. What are they going to do, take away my birthday?
““Article 88 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice and Department of Defense Directive 1344.10” is a good rule to obey and implement.“
True if applied uniformly. But it is not. There is the rub.
I just looked up Article 88. It refers to commissioned officers, no mention of enlisted or retirees. Unless I missed something…?
so that means all other reasons for disrespecting Bidden can be used just not Afghanistan
Keep it going
If Jao Xiden was worthy of respect, the DOD wouldn’t feel the need to order the troops to do so. Won’t change what a sailor thinks or what’s in a soldier’s heart tho’. Quite the opposite.
Will scumbag Biden and laughing Kamala show up when the 13 caskets arrive and lie just like Hillary did.

Charles Woods, the father of Navy SEAL Tyrone Woods who was murdered during the 2012 attack on the U.S. compound in Benghazi, Libya, said that then-Secretary Hillary Clinton lied to him about an anti-Muslim video being the cause of the attack and also “stood in front of my son’s flag-draped casket and lied to the American people.
Does this mean they are going to court martial lt col. Vindman ?
Gulag
That's what I said to the missus the other day...who on the dimm list of candidates would anyone trust with the residency?
They are all incompetent idiots
That they have to issue this order is damning enough
“I recall from some other posting that this order is extending to civilian employees and contractors of the military.”
Does it extend to those of us who fund the military?
I expect they will tap me this year to pay for another 16,000 rounds of 5.56.
Wow, so you really think this is biden, the old dementia afflicted guy. He’s no more in charge than obama was. The LEFT is a communist cult with like minded individuals. Valerie Jarret had more say in what was done during the obama years and likely still does. She made the comment about Van Jones, self proclaimed communist that “We’ve had our eye on him for a long time”.
Soros is one of their gawds.
Truth telling sets people free. . .don’t you know? Our country is sliding fast. I’m glad my WWII Veteran parents are not here to witness this mess.
