Active Duty Major calls for Trump to be impeached and removed

It is because you always get so emotional when we interact and I prefer to interact with rational posters.
I may not agree with TG in all things, though there are some, at least he doesn't get all flustered and emotional.
And I hope with maturity you can come to grasp with people having a different opinion than yourself and not constantly feel the need to dismiss others with fallacies to protect your ego.
We can all hope right?
I've stopped weighing in on these arguments, however... As you know and are defending, military service comes with obligations and standards of conduct. He was wrong to do it in uniform, he was also there on invite of Rep. Al Green, at a rally he was having, which is also forbids wearing a uniform at. Dress in civvy's have your day. This is all staged for the drama unfolding.You're funny ghee. Sorry I get triggered on that topic. The double standard between the IC and politicians is probably my biggest gripe (don't get me started). Oh, and I was an Intelligence Analyst (not officer). I retired an E-7 in 2013, then became a defense contractor at NSA until 2021. Now I'm just scrub contractor with nothing higher than a Secret clearance.
This is where I like to dive deeper and see what his career like (passed up for promotion, recent DUI, ****** Officer?). But when that Marine COL a year or so ago, went off on his op-ed to the Wash Post, and I posted that he was a professional military speech writer, and was at terminal rank, and at the end of his career, and this was just a stunt for him to gain attention for post-military career.... those facts adding to the conversation were met with the same dismissiveness. Also, who the F wears the c_nt cap anymore, and with ridiculous aviator glasses.
I said I asked a question of another poster.
You questioned my sexuality.
I'm not the emotional one, I am not the one dismissing those with other beliefs.
TG and I have had some good back and forth.
You on the other hand, you just start to get all emotional and name cally. When have I ever called you a name? I am not the one with the maturity issue here Whiskey.
You weren't like this before, you've changed.
Is everything ok at home? How about work?
I hope you find the help and peace you deserve.
A. you just dated yourself (big time). B. good luck seeing the bus driver hat these days.
lol. I retired in 2014, and spent my entire career in Airborne and SF & Special Ops communities...so yeah, only wore a beret. bus driver hats are back in fashion again!! .... the Army's new A's sport them WWII style, and the Ike Jacket, recall me today just to wear that around....but not at a staged political rally in DC.A. you just dated yourself (big time). B. good luck seeing the bus driver hat these days.
Jesus dude it was joke. Nobody cares if you are gay. Never better mate, busy as can be but life is good.
Air Force blues have sucked since we made them look like airline pilots.
I miss the 4-pocket jacket. I still have mine in the attic somewhere.
I know, my OG polyester Greens are buried in a closet, along with the 3 or 4 other dress uniform variations that Army kept changing to or requiring in the 2000s.
I hope that is true man, I really do. But there have just been some signs with your erratic and emotionally volatile posting.
I know there has to be someone out there that loves you, so reach out to them if you need to.
Have a blessed day.
He simply doesn’t win awards for his attire any more and he feels old. He needs to buy a mustang or something….
I am sure there is a story here and it is a manageable day at work, so I guess I will ask:
Awards for dressing snazzy?
The shorts of the joke are the only 2 popularity contest I have ever won are (1) in 8th grade the fine ladies of my class voted me "best dressed" and the emotional equivalent males on here (2) voting me wpoty last year.
His responsibilities include defending his country against all enemies. "Just following orders" is how you get a military backing a fascist. And I'm sure he was aware of any consequences he would face... and he did it anyway. Civil disobedience has a long and illustrious history here. Doing the right thing in the face of consequences - and accepting those consequences - is the definition of courage.

An active-duty Air Force Major just risked his career to say what a lot of people are thinking. Maj. Jason Watson stood on the Capitol steps, in uniform, and called for Trump and Vance to be impeached citing unconstitutional military strikes on Iran, Venezuela, and Cuba that he says cost

He was arrested minutes later for demonstrating without a member of Congress present after Rep. Al Green, who joined him, had to step away. This is a man who took an oath to defend the Constitution, not a party!

These aren't political statements. They are criticisms of Trump breaking the laws of the constitution.
And here is the article @cigaretteman posted in the article about celebrating heroes...
Celebrate patriots who fight for our free speech ideals | Opinion | thegazette.com
...that speaks precisely to this kind of courage.
Also I'm curious why Hegseth gets to rule over the military but is also free to make everything he says a political speech about how great Trump is?
I don't disagree. I simply pointed out what those consequences would be and the fact he will most likely face them. I didn't give any other opinion aside from the fact I mostly agreed with his message, but yet I'm the one getting blasted for simply stating what the military regulations are. IMO, if people don't like the fact he'll face them, they should write their congress person rather than shoot the messenger
Damn you and your knowledge....I don't disagree. I simply pointed out what those consequences would be and the fact he will most likely face them.

Another weird hill you're chosing to die on Huey.
If an active-duty service member, while in uniform or in an official context, publicly advocates for or against a partisan political figure, the DoD regulations still apply; even if they're framing it as defending the Constitution or criticizing unlawful conduct. The military intentionally sets a higher standard to avoid even the appearance of institutional partisanship.
I'm not arguing whether Trump did or didn't violate the Constitution. I'm saying that if this officer's comments are determined to be partisan political advocacy under DoD rules, he will likely face disciplinary action regardless of whether many people agree with what he said.
Why is this so hard to understand? Would it help if I changed my avatar to his image and put HERO on it?
He was voted best dressed in eighth grade and WPOTY in 2025. Only two polls he ever won…
Mfer openly turns every address in front of the troops a Trump rally. Even the Iran War has turned into a Trump rally. Eff this noise that active military can't call this abuse out.
So why don't these codes of conduct apply to Trump's people? Your argument falls flat there.
Its the military member wearing the uniform portion that stumps ya, isnt it?
No, he is not.
Making a speech while in uniform is no more patriotic than ranting and raving on an anonymous message board.
I think what's being missed is that everyone understood he would face severe consequences but he did it anyway and that's why his courage was so notable. Diverting the conversation to the consequences is beside the point, because we implicitly knew those were coming.and we didn't expect he'd get a pass. ;-)I don't disagree. I simply pointed out what those consequences would be and the fact he will most likely face them. I didn't give any other opinion aside from the fact I mostly agreed with his message, but yet I'm the one getting blasted for simply stating what the military regulations are.
