The Marine Who Called for Afghanistan Accountability Has Been Thrown in Prison

Back in August, Marine Lt. Col. Stuart Scheller called for accountability for military leadership on the disastrous and catastrophic exit from Afghanistan. He did so knowing he was risking his career and would likely face punishment for doing so.

"The reason people are so upset on social media right now is not because the Marine on the battlefield let someone down," Scheller said. "People are upset because their senior leaders let them down and none of them are raising their hands and accepting accountability or saying, 'We messed this up.'"

The three Marines that arrested him should be canned and the entire chain of command involved shot.

Is the director of the movie that caused the Benghazi protest still in prison?

Yes, telling the truth has become a revolutionary act. The entire order created by our Managerial State needs to fall. It will, eventually, because of internal contradictions, but we need to separate ourselves from it. There is no union possible with the people running the Biden Show.

It’s tough when you blow the whistle or speak your mind publically without authorization especially in the military. I feel for him.

The Commies have taken over HQMC!

Hang on LtCol. Scheller! Trust in God! God bless you and your family! You are right! The Communists have corrupted the Corps! They have no honor! They have betrayed Corps and Country!

Semper Fi!

Meanwhile the fat, insubordinate general is being carefully coached on just how testify under oath and lie if necessary on behalf of the Biden cabal.

My boss is a Navy Academy grad.

He supported the first steps, but the Lt. Col. was ORDERED To stop posting.

He kept posting. In uniform. And now is where it seems he wanted to be, in jail.

Yeah, as a former Marine officer myself (and also a USNA grad), he didn’t give his chain of command much choice. If you want to speak out has he has, publicly and repeatedly, then you resign first.

I don’t think that full Amish is really an option, but definitely get out of the cities. That’s where the clampdowns will begin. That’s also where they will release their street goons again. This fake regime will not have the ability to control anything but the cities, and they will abandon those to the BLM mob.

Bannon on WarRoom says they put him in the brig to keep him quiet while the 3 amigos (Miley etc) testify today. That’s a pretty good theory. There’s a fund raiser going on for his defense fund anyone know how to donate?

Did he give away state secrets on Wikileaks? Dress in drag and surrender to our enemy? Bash Trump supporters and call for their execution after forced vaccinations? No, he spoke about accountability.

As a former US Army officer, I see this as what it is…a Soviet Show Trial. Same as the so-called January 6 “insurrection”. If you can’t see this you are willingly ignorant. But don’t worry…you are in great woke company.

Semper Deditionem!

The generals don’t want smart Officers.

The generals want OBEDIENT Officers.

Now you know why we couldn’t win in Afghanistan.
