This will go down as the Friday Night Massacre of the Military.

First the Chairman of the JCS and now Adm. Franchetti, the first woman to become a member of the JCS.

Next up the Air Force’s No. 2 officer & the top JAGs for each service.

Martial law is coming.

That's the question of the Century. I am joining protests in the meantime.
Next year is 250th anniversary of the Declaration and we need again fight a revolutionary war, against ourselves.

Let’s go! I’m boycotting & writing & will be attending any and everything to protest. The universal issues are the Doge breach & cuts and the king talk and international relations. Let’s let maga and non-voters join us for a very impactful resist like at that Georgia town hall in maga country.

Two Joint Chiefs fired—both historic firsts. Gen. Charles Q. Brown Jr., the first Black Air Force Chief, and Adm. Lisa Franchetti, the first woman to lead the Navy.

Coincidence?

Or a calculated power shift? Diversity erased, leadership reshaped. What kind of America is being built? 🌗✨

pokamew.bsky.social•2 hours ago

I think once the protests get large enough to interfere with his golf outings, Trump will declare martial law.

duncan-waddell.bsky.social•5 hours ago

Martial Law naturally imposed by tRump as there is now a shortage of staff and chaos. This must be when Law and Order comes back (lol, on TV).

It's not. US volunteer military is bottom up organization that ONLY promotes from w/i ffs. ALL Flag Officers receive SAME history & leadership courses. It's NOT like firing Board or CEO & bringing in "new management". Defeating Domestic Despot is "game winning shot" of US Military Officer's dreams.

General Brown Jr. was a highly decorated officer...and he is also African American. Trump hates courageous black Americans, just as he hates women.
And republicans are on the same page. Does not matter if you are objectively the best, if you are black or female, you will be discarded.

My one hope, as a Canadian looking south, was that the military might have the balls to step in and remove the traitor from office. Not going to happen now. FGS, Americans wake the fuck up!

gcal.bsky.social•11 hours ago

Many of us have been “awake” for a ling time with regard to tRump. I read an AP article regarding Brown’s firing. In it, Hegseth stated that military leadership will be reviewed, and every leader needs to follow “lawful orders”. In other words, all orders from “tRump”, legal or not, are legal. F ‘em

Yes, the military follow the orders, they are paid for that.

maryannnm.bsky.social•9 hours ago

The military must only follow lawful orders. They have a duty to refuse unlawful orders, such as firing on fellow Americans. The oath is to the Constitution, not a president.

I could never understand why Biden did not call out police and military and round up Trump, Musk etc. He had immunity. Trump will never honour that now, nor pardons. Trump & Project 2025 made it very clear what they intended to do. Biden & Democrats sat back abd allowed this to happen.

hpgundaker77.bsky.social•1 hour ago

I've thought of this incessantly since the election. The only reasons I believe he wouldn't have done so, is if his family were compromised and/or he didn't want to go down as the president who started a civil war—instead, we were thrown to the wolves.

hpgundaker77.bsky.social•1 hour ago

President Biden loves America, and has been a dedicated public servant for ~50 years. He believed our institutions would hold, and said as much during his exit. I can't imagine any other scenarios as to why he didn't do as you described.

veluwe.bsky.social•1 hour ago

This is the ugly side of democracy. People are free to make decisions to elect people who take away their freedoms. Especially ironic given this is the language of Trumpsters, but stupidity has always been part of the equation.

Franchetti has as much operational experience as any other CNO this decade. Destroyer command, two carrier strike groups, US Forces Korea, and 6th Fleet.

Now fired by an alcoholic TV pundit who probably added a tattoo of Musk to his neo-Nazi collection.
