    I’d really like to know what illegal order he wouldn’t follow that got up whiskey Pete’s nose. Maybe it will all come out at the trials that will eventually have to happen.

      Maybe they’re going to actually order bombing desalination plants like they’ve threatened. A clear war crime that any self respecting soldier should want nothing to do with.

      Christ I wish I had your optimism.

      I’m honestly more interested to meet a service member that says “no, thats an illegal order, fuck you” instead of gracefully resigning and minimizing the problem, while clearing the way for a sycophant to step in.

      Never discount the possibility that hegseth is just trying to scapegoat him instead too.
