Communications from top leadership at the Office of Naval Intelligence (ONI) shows them instructing active duty and retired service members that they are forbidden from criticizing Joe Biden for his utter incompetence that led to the crisis in Afghanistan.
In an email that was uncovered by the Daily Wire, the Naval Intelligence Chief of staff, Captain Scott Chesbrough, gave current and former members of the Navy a reminder to follow the uniform code that prohibits them from disrespecting senior government leadership, especially if it comes to feeble Ol’-Joe.

Just why in hell would the military have to issue that order? I'm puzzled.

Why would they order that... I thought you were to keep quiet about anything the brass did. This seems odd.

FTA: ~~"An ONI inside source for The Daily Wire said that these policies were essentially non-existent while Trump was in office, explaining how he had heard former officers repeatedly bad mouthing their commander in chief."~~
Pray for our country.....It is not the same one I grew up in......MAGA

To issue those orders means a LOT of them are saying what is obvious.
The real issue for the brass is how many are thinking it but staying silent..for now?

Letters like this started appearing during the Clinton years. Mostly from IGs and JAG officers who want to appear more important than they are. Servicemembers can be punished for disrespect to the president or the governor of the state in which they are stationed but it rarely ever happens and there is no way they would ever recall a retiree to active duty to charge them , That being said if you are a contractor or federal employee never underestimate the pettiness of the Deep State to try to screw you.

Maybe the best way to deal with such an unreasonable, logic-defying, far reaching consequential order is to disobey it en masse.

Hypocrisy on steroids. Given all the nasty things retired naval personnel publicly said about Donald Trump, Captain Scott Chesbrough can go get stuffed.

I have had a bit of a problem obeying the Bible that would have me pray for those in authority. I am able to pray for the Office of the President of the United States. Haven't put a name or a face with that yet, however. One place is in I Timothy 2: 1-4, so that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life.

The thought police are out in force. Cannot agree with this more:
"Notice well how words are having their meanings changed by the Left. Since when does "criticism," equal "disrespect?" Since when is disagreeing a punishable offense? And retired people are now prohibited from disagreeing???? Will they lose their benefits for disagreeing?"

You might recall that Hitler made several incredibly stupid military decisions (fortunately for the allies) possibly because of his lack of expertise. Be assured that "top leadership" of Nazi Intelligence similarly cautioned German service members then against criticizing such stupidity. Diversity of opinion CAN be a good thing, but not with Demento in charge. So SHUT UP because the Supreme Leader CANNOT be questioned ... just how many Deaths were and will be caused by his incompetence until he is replaced?

How about the word FORBIDDEN boys and girls. Can be spelled for biden. How can anyone respect someone who had the election rigged for him. Respect will never be used when referring to Joe Biden.

I left the Navy 46 years ago as a CPO after 8 years of active duty. Thanks for reminding me that was one of the best decisions of my life. Back then I was working as an instructor in one of the toughest technical schools in the Navy. Our CO decided our dropout rate was too high, and ordered us to loosen the standards for graduation. I shudder to think of all the expensive electronic and computer equipment that was unavailable for use, CASREPed, or destroyed by unqualified technicians.
Everybody in the military has encountered knuckleheaded officers up and down the ranks who have their own agenda, like Captain Chesbrough demanding the impossible. The only response to them is "Yessir, three bags full," then gun deck the reported results.
So, Yessir Captain Chesbrough, even though I don't fall anywhere near your chain of command I will cease to call our feckless, cowardly, senile, stupid, arrogant, incompetent, criminal, grifting, thief of a President those terms any more. Give me a couple of minutes and I'll think of some other derogatory adjectives not on that list.

yet in 2016 200+ "High Ranking" present and former Military all SIGNED a letter bashing Trump and endorsing Biden. Media everywhere went wild running it. From the "High command"? Not a peep.

When Doughboy Vindeman showed up to bash Trump, leak phone calls(while interpreting them not actually quoting them) wearing his dress uniform...even though for ten years he worked in civvies, he changed into uniform to testify, changed back out to return to NSA. Nary a scowl from command chain.

I recall one of the officers in our unit reminding soldiers not to be disrespectful to the CIC. That was during the Clinton years. I attended an NCO training course and couldn't help but notice the cadre were openly criticizing Clinton. I concluded from these observations that their brass didn't like him.

The “woke” Generals just warning all the “White Supremacists” in their commands that openly calling Biden or members of his crew an idiot or a moron could result in charges being brought against them in accordance with the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ). That’s the name of their game,

This is getting close to North Korean Dear Leader's edicts upon his servile populace.
I'm done with the brain-addled buffoon who thinks he can do more push-ups than Achmed the Talibutt, wants to take Mohammad Goatlover behind a building and wrassle him into submission (or get some release for his trouble).
The Afghans took Joe's lunch bucket and had a friggin' picnic.

The President of the United States is the civilian commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces. There is no Constitutional authority to remove him as CIC by court martial. No ranking officer in the military thinks otherwise.

Active duty I could understand. They're a bunch of woke pussies who own your ass until you're out. But retired and those no longer in service can say whatever the hell they want. It' called the First Amendment.

The rest of you, don't forget the G.W. Bush behemoth, aka, his homeland crapola , the DHS now has the 'right' to arrest you as a domestic terrorist if you doubt the election results, make disparaging comments about the vegetable in the WH and there was something else that I forgot.

OK, CAPT Scott Chesbrough, I'll call your bluff. Joe Biden was a Papa Oscar Sierra as a Senator, as VP, and as the fraudulently elected "president" of the United States. Now come and get me, you self-righteous creep. Scott Smith, CDR, USNR (retired). Did you catch that? Retired.

Must I remind my fellow veterans, we swore an oath to to protect the CONSTITUTION against all enemies, foreign and domestic. No where in the UCMJ or the Constitution does it say we have to agree with the commander in chief, when that CiC is unfit for the job, is a danger to our country and to us, the invisible American.
In my book, Biden, along with those worthless crouch scabs in the JCS and DoD, belong in GITMO and to be charged with treason. The military leaving in the dead of night is "on purpose" allowing the enemy to acquire in the mater on a few hours, over $60 billion dollars in military assets. This was no accident. This was the administrations plan from day one.
One very pi$$ed off retired MSgt.
