Chain-of-command means orders come from your immediate superior doesn't it? Adding "Or to Subvert President Trump's agenda" pretty much nullifies that and by default makes our military on par with Russia's. Good weapons do fuck and all when not used as intended.
Putin must be laughing his ass off at how effectively he's destroying the US military without firing a single shot at it.

Yeah this. Very much.
Without Trump Putin would've been finished, but since Trumputler, Russia is still an actual danger to the world.
Russian disinfo is just so fking prevalent and idiots fall for it. And most people are idiots.

It's one for the books to be sure. Also there are a huge portion of Americans cheering it on because they're too stupid to know better.
Ohhhh nooo, anyway. Who is getting fired next? US firings became regular since trump came into the office.
And what agenda might that be?
Replacing base commanders is very indicative of a potential military coup
Surely this won’t do anything to undermine an already plummeting morale.
Gotta have that rock bottom morale for the upcoming war with former allies.....
JD Vance is the biggest fucking pussy I have ever seen
He has neither the depth nor the warmth.
His loveseat does, though.
Loyalty to trump takes precedence to the truth.
Hero. Just trying to make everything work like it's supposed to.
The Most Incompetent Administration In History can say what it wants to (and will) and the pithed chuds who make up the voting base will eat it all up, but anyone with any sense can see what's going on.
Only if they watch/listen to more than Fox News and Newsmax and OAN. Here’s the fun thing… they don’t.
*Behold the Underminer! I am always beneath you, but nothing is beneath me! I hereby declare war on peace and happiness! Soon, all will tremble before me! *
View 1: you should follow chain of command as a unified command is necessary for military operations. Any personnel going against the direction is counted as rogue. (benefits military)
View 2: Public Relations of the country you are in requires the ability to deescalate situations and unwind tension, thereby requiring the communication of separation. (benefits local units and local community)
View 3: moral obligations of one's self pushes you to do the right thing. (benefits self and possibly local unit)
In my opinion, I believe this was an action of view 2 and also happened to include view 3. But that's just like... My opinion.
It's literally against the UCMJ to take part in political action as a uniformed member of the military. To me it sounds like she was trying to "cya" and of course, this administration has such thin skin that they couldn't have someone do that.
Fragging is gonna make a comeback in a time of "peace."
JD Vance exudes weakness.
The patron saint of yes-men.
I mean, if you're the Vice President, it's kind of hard to put much pressure on the President. The Vice President has virtually no power or formal responsibilities other than what the President chooses to delegate to him. I mean, if he annoys the President, the President can very readily leave him with nothing other than a bit of prestige and a tie-breaking vote in the Senate.
Though the President can't actually remove the Vice President, no matter how unhappy with him he is.
So what you're saying is that he's possibly the one person in the country that can tell the fascist fartknocker the truth and not be removed from office? Poor guy, I'm glad he's doing the right thing instead.
There's supportive & then there is mewling sycophant.
Vance is the latter.
Alternatively, the President can't actually remove the Vice President, no matter how unhappy with him he is.
He can be impeached, especially with a house that is under the president's thumb.
It does create an odd situation in the senate about voting him out. I think dems would refuse a farce impeachment, even against the opposing party, but either way its a win for them.
Who’s the snowflake now?
He is a real La-Z-Boy.
More like a human footrest
I heard he recently hit it off with a chaise lahegaounge
Edit: I’m so, so torn on whether to put those last two words into an imagegen
