Bin Laden raid commander resigns from Pentagon board after criticizing Trump

Criticizing Trump is an understatement. He lit into Trump with malice after initially supporting him.

Through your actions, you have embarrassed us in the eyes of our children, humiliated us on the world stage and, worst of all, divided us as a nation.

If you think for a moment that your McCarthy-era tactics will suppress the voices of criticism, you are sadly mistaken. The criticism will continue until you become the leader we prayed you would be.

Brennan was his buddy.

Well that was stupid.

He should have at least had the stones to resign first.

It’s amazing you question the stones of this dude. You posted the exact same nonsense when I started the thread on the old forum when McRaven called out Trump for his “enemy” of the people comments.

This dude was the longest serving active navy seal before his retired. The guys is one of the greatest American heroes alive today. And he’s largely to thank for bin Laden being dead today. Please, continue to question his honor and integrity.

I don’t give a ■■■■ if he was Rambo, he violated his oath.

What oath?

The oath he took as an officer.

Swing and a miss.

Home run pardner, it was an act of gross insubordination. He had two choices, resign in disgrace or be courts martialed.

Strike 2.

Do you want to strike out, or do yo u want to find out what exactly McRaven stepped down from before you step back into the batter’s box?

I read it. It was an act of gross insubordination. You cannot publicly criticize a superior officer much less the Commander In Chief.

Oh, so you chose to strike out. Not surprised.

You’re flailing in the dark.

McRaven stepped down from his position on the Defense Innovation Board-an independent advisory board to the Pentagon.

He retired from the military 4 years ago.

Now please, double down.

Then it doesn’t matter.

What did i say originally?

Which you chose to respond to.

Old news…it has already been discuss several weeks ago.

My integrity is fully intact.

If he stepped down first as I said, then it’s no problem.

I don’t care who’s occupying the office, when you’re on active or reserve status you cannot speak ill of, or challenge the Commander in Chief publicly. It is an act of gross insubordination.

So a retired Navy Admiral, who retired several years ago, resigned from a Pentagon board AFTER criticizing Trump? I wasn’t aware that any Pentagon board of any importance included former members of the military who have retired. Something seems off here.

The same people criticizing you don’t know a fig about military honor and neither does guy apparently :roll_eyes: He needs to lose his security clearance.

I highly doubt he still has it.
