He is a hero - but his sacrifice is also a mystery to me.
I was only in for four years, and even I knew publicly attacking the chain of command would get my ass kicked hard.
He's an officer with 17 years in - he clearly knew what was going to happen.
He either is a man of incredible conviction, or he was counting on others lending him more support than he got.
I see people resisting COVID mandates everywhere.
But I don't see a lot of people getting themselves jailed in the process.
So ... yeah not a lot of people out there willing to go to the clink without at least a shot of overturning the policies they're opposing.

Maybe it's the Court Martial of Billy Mitchell situation, dunno, I applaud his bravery for taking on the perfumed princes of the pentagon

It’s definitely going to take at least 8% of the population: that’s what Blacks had when they began to risk jail.

I'm still 50/50 on whether the mandate will ever come down.
If it does ... I think you'll see 8% easily saying "no".
As the Senate Armed Services Committee gets ready to grill military leaders about the Afghanistan debacle on Tuesday, multiple recent Department of Defense officials tell Fox News that an internal focus on left-wing cultural battles likely distracted top brass from Afghanistan planning and military readiness.
One former senior official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said that under President Biden, top officials held meetings on "culture war" issues every week, and sometimes more. The roster of those attending included Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin and the secretaries of all the military departments, that official said.
"They never met once on readiness. But they met every week on transgender issues, extremism, racism, sexual assault, sexual harassment, et cetera," a former official said, adding that that the focus likely distracted from Afghanistan planning.
"There's only 168 hours in a week. They were spending all their time on these things, particularly early on. Yes, they were distracted," an official said.
Yep, its obvious tho anyone who saw Milley bitching about White Rage.
If someone wrote a warning 6 months ago that our military leaders would forgo readiness in the field to push CRT you'd be a conspiracy theorist passing bad info.

Nothing is going to happen. In fact, they'll probably get medals for focussing on the real threat of white supremacy instead of brown people.
BTW - still no accountability for the outright murder of that family. Special place in hell for these demons.
