I didn’t check, but odds are that Spencer is where he is as a result of Obama

Stupid move on Spencer’s part. Never bypass the boss and make him look stupid, never jump the chain of command.

EXCELLENT advice to all those who work--even for themselves.

Seems like Sec. Spencer choose this hill to die on. Why was this so important, in the general scheme of things?

If you haven’t watched the Gallagher interview, you should. Navy Seal hero was being railroaded by DC scum just to impress other DC scum.

One less Obama “transformational” Navy Officer in our Navy.

Good for PDJT, and thank you Mr. Gallagher for one more completed task.

Perhaps now our Deck Watch will be issued a lot more live ammo aboard our vessels when in port abroad.

>>well, that way lies tyranny.<<

It’s interesting to read the WashPost’s comment section on the linked article.

Talk about viewing the world through two different lenses...

Interesting. It seems SECDEF is firing SECNAV for going around him, keeping him in the dark while he tried his backdoor negotiation with WH staff. SECNAV was hoping to give the illusion that Admiral Green was able to oppose Trump and disobey his orders, while in reality, the board was to be a kangaroo court. That is NOT acceptable.

There’s a chain of command in the armed forces. What the CIC says, goes. If you disagree with his order, resign.

Never defy the President because you’ll expect to get your walking papers. Exactly what happened today.

Navy’s getting a black eye over it.


The navy must have a lot of black eyes the way things have been going for the past year. Clean the house.

“primary and consistent lessons drilled into me at USAFA” —

Completely agree with my fellow graduate of the Air Force Academy. I would additionally add something more severe than firing — like a “long tour” at Fort Leavenworth. —Nabber, USAFA 72

Green is probably retiring soon and wants to burnish his Never Trump credentials for post Navy corporate employment.
