Marine leadership go Soviet on courageous Lt. Col. Scheller

The senior leadership — not the service members — are using an old Soviet playbook to silence Lt. Col. Scheller, a courageous and noble soldier. He will not be silenced. The commander has forfeited his 17-year pension and his medical benefits, all of it, for his right to speak.

The military has now said they are worried about his mental health and will make “sure he and his family are safe.”

They are dirt.

The Marine battalion commander who was relieved of his duties for blasting his superiors over the Afghanistan exit strategy says his commanding officer ordered him to go to the hospital for a mental health screening.

Lt. Colonel Stuart Scheller had announced he was resigning from the Marines just days after he was punished for his viral video where he called out his superiors for not “raising their hands and accepting accountability or saying, ‘We messed this up.’”

He blasted top brass again in an update Monday, saying that when he returned to work on Monday he was ordered to go to a hospital to be “evaluated by the mental health specialists.”

Scheller said that “excusing the action of service members because of ‘PTSD’ does more damage to service members than any trauma in combat” and that he is stronger because of his involvement in “very traumatic situations.”

Scheller’s original video criticized Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley for leaving the Bagram Air Base before all Americans and their allies had the chance to be evacuated.

It came after 13 U.S. service members, including 11 Marines, were killed along with more than 90 Afghans after at least one suicide bomber attacked the Hamid Karzai International Airport in Kabul.

It’s good to see that much support.

A writer at American Thinker suggests Scheller may be part of Q-Anon. I get the impression he is in support of continuing the operation in Afghanistan. Some at the press briefing by Republicans today suggest we need to stay there to “prevent” another attack. They omit the fact of the failure of the Visa system and, more importantly, the failure of FBI and Intelligence agencies. Under the current circumstances we are even more likely to an attack because of the southern border. Then, with over 120,000 Afghans brought into the country, we have no idea the “type” of people these are.

The first act of Trump on returning to the Oval Office should be to reinstate Scheller, promote him to a Four Star, and make him Chief of the General Staff and instruct Gen. Scheller to investigate who ordered this humilating debacle and to correct it immediately.

The depth of the rainbow poop emoji intensifies as telling the truth is a revolutionary act.
The truth? You can’t handle the truth!

(to those participation trophy hacks calling themselves leadership)

Which is the greater insubordination, Scheller or Vindman. If I heard right, he was the “whistleblower” in the “perfect” phone call. Not only did he lie on that report, but he also lied in front of Congress. Then he went so far as testifying against his superior, the Commander-in-Chief. Considering the two, Vindman should be in the brig right now.

Vindman should have been hung.
