Shoshanna is in the wrong line of work. She should be in community organizing.

With eight rows of service ribbons to Nimitz’s measly two, Shoshona’s value to the Navy and the nation has obviously been overlooked by the cruel Trump administration. /s

Yes, and Jasmine is definitely one of those who can't understand normal thinking.

Their names are legion, unfortunately.

Navy Vice Admiral Shoshana Chatfield should not have hung the pictures. She should have hung mirrors so that she could gaze at her own face.

In every military unit I been there has always been a display of the chain of command, which starts with the President and SECDEF. Failure for a military leader not to acknowledge that chain is grounds for at least dismissal IMHO.

That was my first thought as well. Immediately followed by "Jasmine Crockett is an ignorant race-baiter."

Any officer who could be so angry and petty not to mention disrespectful is on the face of it unfit to lead.

If the commander in chief says “hang the picture”, you hang the picture. You don’t have to like it, but it’s a lawful order and you follow it.

If you can’t follow orders, then the military is probably not for you.

Odds are that she’s a DEI promotion. And one that needs to check her own ego.

No, it is about insubordination.

Yep. As a grunt pill roller in 1959-62, I knew first hand, that much like the plumber knows, shit runs downhill.

Whether you are enlisted, or an officer, there is always someone above you and you obey the orders that come down to you.

Seems like she wouldn't obey orders...so.

Jasmine thinks disloyalty to the Commander in Chief and the DOD by a 3 star drone is OK.

Oh, for sure. An officer can decide to voice publicly his disagreement with the C-I-C, but there’s likely a significant price to pay for choosing to doing so. It seems many people just have to understand things “the hard way”.

Sounds like multiple reasons to let her go!

I suspect pretty much all Biden-era brass need to be flushed.

No, it’s about Military discipline and an Attention Whore.
