Sheyla Baez Ramirez has been suspended from her position after reportedly refusing to display official photographs of Commander-in-Chief Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.
The announcement in a brief and carefully worded statement by Fort McCoy’s Senior Commander on Saturday, claiming the suspension was “not related to any misconduct” and that “no further details will be provided at this time.”
The statement reads, “Col. Sheyla Baez Ramirez has been suspended as Garrison Commander at Fort McCoy. This suspension is not related to any misconduct. We have no further details to provide at this time while this matter is under review.”
According to multiple reports, Col. Ramirez—who assumed command at Fort McCoy in July 2024—has openly engaged in left-wing political activism and repeatedly defied Department of Defense regulations requiring the prominent display of official portraits of current civilian leadership, including the President, Vice President, and Secretary of Defense.

Meet Colonel Sheyla Baez Ramirez. Ramirez assumed command of Fort McCoy Garrison in Wisconsin in 2024.
Ramirez is a political activist who refuses to display the official photographs of the Secretary of Defense and the President.
The real question is—how long before she’s… pic.twitter.com/2qjQBegjAb

Last week, the DOD Rapid Response wrote on X, “Regarding the Ft. McCoy Chain of Command wall controversy…. WE FIXED IT! Also, an investigation has begun to figure out exactly what happened.”

GREAT!
Awesome. She needs to go back to making street tacos. She had no business being in the U.S. Military.
You would have been busted down to private, peeling potatoes, if you refused to hang the Kenyan’s photo.
Anyway, this buffoon gets a paid vacation, aka paid suspension. -— I am sure it is paid, but they ain’t saying.
Good riddance!
Exactly. A political activist with a name like Sheyla Baez Ramirez should never be a colonel. Yeah, a taco cart is a more suitable duty station.
DEI promotions are not promotions to do the job of the military, they are primarily advocates to promote DEI.
Make that fat cow pass the fitness exam.
“Col. Ramirez—who assumed command at Fort McCoy in July 2024”
The one in Greenland was put in her position in 2024 as well. Looks like taterhead (or whoever was making the decisions for taterhead) was trying to put as many of these dei picks as possible in place before the election.
She looks like someone’s abuela, not a colonel.

Good news!
Maybe she can spend her time off going on a diet and trying to lose some weight.
Among her many stellar leadership qualities was the ability to avoid deployment.
This is a DEI appointment, first off she’s huge, what kind of example is “it” giving. “It” meaning he, she, them, they, dog cat, partridge in a pear tree, LGBTQ-LMNOP=1=2=3=4=5=6............ Poster thing of what has been wrong
Trump is not into wars and this is the thanks he gets.
Fire her immediately.
BETCHA SHE CANNOT PASS THE CURRENT PHYSICAL STANDARDS HEGSETH IS DEMANDING
BETCHA SHE CANNOT PASS THE CURRENT PHYSICAL STANDARDS HEGSETH IS DEMANDING.
APPEARS TO BE ABLE TO ROLL DOWNHILL FASTER THAN SHE CAN WALK DOWNHILL.
At all.
