This is completely reminiscent of the horrendous treatment Barry's (Xio's earlier) Administration exacted onto Harry G. Butler III, who was a Navy SEAL from 1969 to 1973, trained in “Underwater Demolition”

(Jul. 18, 2013) —In an initial interview with The Post & Email, Mr. Harry Galvin Butler, III said that in late 2008 and early 2009, all he wanted to do was point out that Obama was “a phony,” and see Congress act in the interest of national security. Instead, he ended up spending virtually the entire year in federal prisons awaiting a “psychiatric evaluation.”

Butler is a proponent of both the U.S. Constitution and the Second Amendment, and perceived that Obama, by virtue of being “a phony,” was “playing with my Constitution.” He told us that Navy SEALS and other military members “hate phonies.” He has no previous psychiatric history or criminal record.

A man and a Patriot.

This man talks the talk and walks the walk and is someone to be admired by all.

Well, to be honest, he did seem a bit over the top.

*************

Asking for some accountability for a disaster that affects our national security was over the top? No, this was the sane and fearless thing to do.

I once worked with an officer of similar character who had no qualms expecting his superiors to abide by the same rules everyone was else was expected to observe. To him, it was all about the mission and maintaining the highest standards of conduct and integrity. Nothing less was acceptable to him. And he made an example of himself for others to follow. Like a true leader should.

“Over the top”, did you forget to put a sarcasm tag?”

The people that think Biden is fine seriously need to have THEIR mental health checked. Then we need to keep an eye on them to see how many times they try to vote in the next election.

As it is, Scheller is resigning his commission and will get nothing.

**************

A lot of people in the government value their job security and benefits above all else. That is a big reason why so many of our agencies have become corrupt, wasteful and dysfunctional. Just saying.

Yes, that was my first thought. Straight out of Stalinist Russia.

I can almost guarantee that the people who replied to this comment deriding or mocking it didn't actually watch the second video. It was tough. Far different demeanor than the first video which was passionate and focused Reading between the lines, it sounded like he and his wife were having issues, and he starts in with the "you don't know what I'm capable of doing" stuff. He hit on six or seven of the signs someone is having suicidal ideations, so yes, a mental health check was warranted. A lot of dead Soldiers Sailors and Marines these last few years because nobody checked on their buddy until it was too late. I'm heartened to hear that he seems to be less agitated and more focused now. I wish him only the best.

I see that the leftist propaganda is working on you.

This is how the deep evil swamp control the opposition. If he needs to go for a mental check up what about looney Biden? If anybody needs a damn check up it’s that damn freaking bumbling dementia Joe!!

So protecting Scheller’s pension is more important than saving the USA?

These military maggots with stars on their shoulders are trying to paint Scheller as mentally ill when he is clearly calling them out as the worthless cowards and butt kissers they are.

Scheller is showing more courage than the combined leadership of the U.S. military.

The people in charge are BADLY LOSING THE ARGUMENT AND ARE DEATHLY AFRAID OF SCHELLER and others like him who agree with him.

Scheller will not just land on his feet. He will bring a war they won’t believe.

One courageous man can lead a revolution, change the course of history and topple an empire.
