Hegseth to US generals:
Screw the Constitution, screw rules of engagement, screw morals and ethics. You're now the enforcers of the Republican party against all internal dissent and free speech.
If this isn't a five-alarm fire to every media outlet in the country...
@petergleick Every media outlet in the country is owned by the people giving orders to Pete Kegseth, so…🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️
@petergleick Room full ah generals and they can't take out the worst threat to Democracy and the country?
It only took Egypt a year. But we don't have Egyptians, we have Americans :/
@petergleick
US mil is 4 DEFENSE of Nation,
NOT OFFENSE against "itself"!
🖕🏼 @PeteHegseth can't make that call❗️
@petergleick "Maximum lethality, not tepid legality" he said a few weeks ago.
@petergleick If those soldiers that commit atrocities ever go outside of the country, however:
@petergleick The billionaire media will ignore it
@petergleick if you are a leftist in the US, is now the time to flee?
Had he been drinking??
@petergleick it is all going to one objective:
To cause enough uproar and emergency that the mid terms will not happen or if the results are not MAGA like it will be killed due to emergency. I also strongly believe 2024 was the last open and sort of fair federal election for one or two decades to come.
There is no way out.
A) if the people dont demonstrate, MAGA wins
B) if they do, they create an emergency and their will be no elections
C) It doesn’t matter. SCOTUS will decide in MAGAs favor
@petergleick Narrator: Sadly, It was not.
@petergleick The President of the United States just declared war against me, that's what I heard.
"The duty to obey in the armed forces is governed by the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ). Articles 90, 91, and 92 require service members to obey lawful orders, creating a duty to disobey patently illegal ones. An order is unlawful if it directs a crime, violates the Constitution, or contravenes the laws of war.
The Nuremberg trials after World War II established that 'following orders' is not a defense for committing war crimes."
(from https://legalclarity.org/your-right-to-disobey-an-unlawful-order/ )
Let's take a moment to dwell on "creating a duty to disobey patently illegal [orders]".
GOP billionaires are busy converting the armed services into their personal gang enforcers & triggermen.
Every criminal syndicate requires a supply of kneecappers & thuggish muscle.
"Thank you for your service" becomes alarming when an army becomes a looting & pillaging horde, like Russia's.
How many American military personnel are willing to die so billionaires can keep getting richer?

Wake up America and dethrone this megalomaniac psychopath and his cronies…
@petergleick Pretty sure I'd be okay with a military coup ousting the entire US Government administration about now.
@petergleick @blogdiva You mean the generals who sent thousands to their deaths in Vietnam, Iraq (twice), Afghanistan, etc, because the republicans asked them to do so? Or should we go back further to when the military was killing the indigenous population to make room for you? These are not good people, they’re not driven by “morality”.
@petergleick US generals thinking. “This should’ve been an email.”
