In a January interview with Fortune magazine, retired U.S. Army Brig. Gen. Thomas Kolditz said supporters of President Donald Trump who thought the Jan. 6 storming of the U.S. Capitol “was a good thing” need to be kicked out of the military.
“One of my bigger concerns is that there has long been a strong Trump following in the military,” Kolditz told Fortune. “People in the military have every right to be conservative or extremely conservative. But Trump’s supporters in the military who think that what happened [on Jan. 6] was a good thing need to be managed out of the military as soon as possible. That probably won’t happen until the Trump loyalists are out, but that needs to be done.”
Kolditz said rooting out “Trump loyalists” may entail pursuing thousands of service members and Department of Defense employees.
“We’re not talking about half a dozen people. We’re probably talking about thousands across the Department of Defense,” he said. “Many of them will have already run their mouth, put things on social media. But this was an insurgency, a crime against the state. And it’s a duty obligation of the defense leadership to make sure that there are no, essentially, sleeper cells, people in the military who, for whatever reason, think an insurgency is a good idea or justifiable.”

LOL... If they kicked out all the Trump supporters, they’d have a mighty lean force.
At this point who cares about the 1st Amendment. Kick them all out. Every one of them. Let’s see the General find suitable replacements. My nephews have been out for a while but both were NCOs. As they neared the end of their enlistments, they said the kids coming in were disasters. One of the had a class at ANOC about how out of shape, frail, brittle and unmotivated so many of the new recruits are.
Meanwhile, there are kids in hamas and hezbollah that are walking around with AKs ready to die for the cause.
Half the Special Forces?
I’m thinking about 90-95% of SOCOM will be gone under a policy like this. About 75% of the regular combat arms.
The new Republic of America Provisional Army, the RAPA, will need all of these guys...
Who is this General Coldtitz? An Obama lickspittle obviously.
?
I guess the top brass...the ones hoping to get one or more stars from Plugs or Heels Up...are gonna be looking at emails,twitter,FR,etc for signs of respect for President Trump.
If Kerry’s mates would have known what a despicable shithead he would turn out to be they would have fragged his ass and his family would have gotten his purple heart posthumously.
And now there’s this.....
They want to destroy everything.
Seems this general thinks his political views are superior. That’s a violation of the UCMJ. He should be prosecuted for it.
Never heard of this BG.
What about the BLM supporters who thought attacking the WH was a good thing. Any comments on that general ?
He’s auditioning for a post in Bidenville.
“They already have a racist black general with a fake silver star running things.”
The Pentagon is loaded with Colon Bowel type Obama sycophants. Trump..or the rest of us for that matter...didn’t realize the utter depths of depravity the military brass has been reduced to.
“...there has long been a strong Trump following in the military,”
Didn’t military votes go overwhelmingly Biden?
I don't think so. they were stolen by team Xiden.
Am irrelevant authoritarian jackass - probably into wife swapping and other acts of deviancy. Surprised he never got “fraged” by those under his command. Then again, this twerp likely never saw one minute of combat - just another Pentagon seat warmer.
Just more steps down the path to democrat ordered purges of republicans. We are in stage one of dehumanizing all of us. purge the military of republicans, conservatives, Christians, then it sure gets pretty easy to set them against we citizens.
