“Should orders and the law ever conflict, our officers must obey the law. ”
This quote comes from a plaque posted at West Point, reminding the men and women of our Armed Forces that America’s soldiers don’t “just follow orders;" they follow the Constitution.
The Secretary of Defense clearly didn’t get the memo. Instead, he's threatening servicemembers who defy illegal orders with a court martial.
I spent 20 years serving on Navy combatant ships, John. In those 20 years, I never saw anything like this — a politician demanding the U.S. military bend to his whims, insulting our generals, threatening veterans on social media, endangering American lives with his sloppy conduct. It’s unthinkable.
I take these threats very seriously, and that's why I'll do everything in my power to defend the rights of our Armed Forces, just as they defend ours.
I’m running for Congress to stand up for freedom, justice, and the Constitution. I’ll need your backup to complete this mission, so please, will you invest $10 to help me flip VA-02 and show the world that America is still a nation of laws? [[link removed]]
