The purge of senior officers who have served with distinction on the battlefield and off should send a shiver down the spine of any American who cares about an apolitical military.

It was encouraging to me that Trump had to dig so deep to find a General who would serve him personally. That means professionalism is alive and well in the senior ranks. But they will all be embattled soon, and time will tell if they are brave enough to shut down a traitorous "president".
Senator @SenatorWicker has the power to bring Hegseth before Armed Services to explain purging highly qualified Chiefs and top JAGs. Urge him to do that before any hearing on Caine.
Elissa, what happens to these purged senior officers? No one has been able to answer this satisfactorily. Are they assigned a different job? Forced to retire? I think your spine should have been shivering as you helped confirm some of the Cabinet nominees.
Dangerous men removing those with clearer heads from positions from which they might see. Probably as a precursor to further bad faith actions. As a guardian of our Constitution, you have failed.
Then DO something! The capital is on fire and no one seems to have any ideas to stop it! Build a coalition, go on talk shows and just explain to the American people what the ramifications are. Give specific examples. If all you do is post on social media vague concerns it is useless!!!
And if all of them are just running scared because they know Trump will jail and/or kill them then they need to *fucking say that* because this feigned normalcy is horrible. Watching them play the “my constituents include republicans” game leaving us with taxation/no representation for Ds is worse.
I’ve assumed Trump would demand (and get) that military parade he was rightfully denied during his first reign. What we’re witnessing here tells us we’ll likely be seeing them in most every major US city at some point soon.
So what is your plan? How are you planning on fighting this? Give Eldon and drump everything they want? Time to stand up and fight Senator or resign if the oath means nothing to you.
Senators voting for Trump’s nominees fully knowing how atrocious they are,while pretending they are doing all they can to oppose Trump should alert citizens to the dangers of voting said senators into office. Looking at you Elissa Slotkin. Any carefully contrived excuses for that?!
For most of our history, leaders from both parties have largely kept their political activities separate from how they handle the military. But not this president and not this SecDef.
Do something about it then, or u all need 2 resign, n the American people can all perish and/or become enslaved under this regime - which is the fate u all sold us out 4 any damn way.
Or we the people revolt.
Either way, you're useless! On your way out-do us a solid.. https://www.tiktok.com/@denise_conr...
No matter how they try and spin it, they have brought their political retribution to the very warfighters they claim to care about. And we are no safer for it.
Criminal Trump wants to talk about DEI because the majority of Americans don't care or like it.
However, if Democratics talk about Criminal Trump's looting of out taxpayers' money, his lies, January 6th terrorist attacks & the economy, they will win!
This is what autocrats do to tighten their grip on the military, for an autocrat can only keep their grip on power as long as they have the military protecting them.

Thank you Senator. What are we going to DO about it. Not pointing at you, or even legislators to save us alone… WE. ALL OF US. What can we do before it’s too late? We can’t just point and gasp… we already know it’s bad. What can we do?
Senator, my Michigander family has been calling you nonstop to beg you not to vote for any Trump nominees, and yet you’ve continued to do so, despite all the previous chilling consequences of those votes. I hope you now understand the error of those votes.
She won’t return a single call or comment on this app. I have been pleading for months with her voicemail for an opportunity to talk about the destruction she and Elon are causing.
Don't you normally appoint a replacement, wait for confirmation of such, and then have a transfer of authority. To have a seamless transfer in a mission critical position. Common sense Herr Drumph
A friend of mine (army ranger, major, retired) has started posting full maga shit on FB. I’m sure many others here know the heartbreak of losing loved ones and family to fascism
100% because who is actually going to stop them when they say let's turn the military on our fellow Americans or foreign allies if the whole army is just yes men

White males only need apply.
The army that rapes together, fights together.
No woman is now safe in the US military or from the US military.
Appear at the demonstration. Call us to join you. You and the other senators figure out a way to obstruct them more. We will follow. https://events.pol-rev.com/events/811bc60f-67bb-409f-bbb9-945567d1aa58
When are you going to start denying unanimous consent, Senator?
Or we the people revolt.

Criminal Trump & Elon Musk are cutting services to Americans, including Medicaid!
However, the National Debt will increase.
Where is the money going?
To Criminal Trump & Elon Musk's pockets.
However, if Democratics talk about Criminal Trump's looting of out taxpayers' money, his lies, January 6th terrorist attacks & the economy, they will win!

You have stated the situation.
You have framed your objections.
The next step needs to be performative, public, vociferous outrage.
We elected you to act against these egregious acts. You are our voice. I want to hear it, loud and clear. Amplify OUR voices.
Stop pulling punches
