Colonel,

These people should be ashamed of themselves and would be if they didn’t have the characteristics of Psychopaths… no conscience.

My late Friend, Green Beret Colonel Sully deFontaine and a Brigadier General Friend, both promoted decades back before the politics got entrenched in the promotion process, disdained the officers they saw get promoted. DEI, but more so, one of these issues got you passed by Congress, regardless of the Officer Peer Review Board…

One… the woke Leftist… Promoted!

Two… the full-fledged Communist… Promoted!

Three… those officers who think the Constitution should be rewritten to Marxist Standards… Promoted!

Austin reviewing the Marines looks like some kind of walking sex object purchased in Adult Stores.

Opportunist officers now know which side the bread is buttered on and have sacrificed any honor… I mean, what lunatic names himself, not from the Marine grunts, but names himself “Mad Dog.”

Time to clean house.

Termini…

It's truly disgusting. I think of Eldon Bargewell when I read stuff like this. A national hero who led a quiet life to the end.

What are the chances that Trump's ''team of retired officers" to review/vet existing and future failsafe personnel will include you Darin?

I've read of so many soldiers being found dead these last 3.5 years. No reason is ever given. I know that Obama did get rid of the best of the best. I've seen Vallely's list and I understand there are even more.

There needs to be justice. Hard to believe that the two you discussed were obviously in the military for quite some time - either turned bad or were never capable. What happened in Afghanistan was planned at the highest levels. It was not a military operation going. Getting many out was certainly a civilian operation hampered by State at every turn.

Shelley, very unlikely, but I have made myself available.

Good to know.

I knew several AF generals during my 25 year career in civil service. The first I read of Austin involved emails to another party while he was in Iraq. Apparently, he had to give the other party a portion of the $2 million he was trying to smuggle out. He’s lived up to that first impression and although several years ago now, have never forgotten that.

Promoting incompetence is truly a threat to the country and most certainly to the fighters. Kinda seems like another strain of treason. Overall, however, Obama didn’t completely fulfill his charge to render the military completely ineffective….but he’s gotten pretty close in Biden’s administration.

Thank you for explaining exactly why these generals need to be investigated and face court martial if the evidence warrants; very likely it might.

God bless you for exposing this as the people must understand the ‘why’ of the facts behind the justice phase.🙏🙏

Thing to remember, Biden was not and is not a king. Nobody has stopped any of what's going on
