Mass UCMJ Violation?

I thought uniformed military were verboten while participating in political activities. This looks like a mass violation of the UCMJ. Does a US representative have the authority to use national guard troops from his island for political activism? Where’s the SECDEF? Where’s Milley on this one? He acted all embarrassed and such and apologized for standing next to Trump while in front the cathedral. Is he going to throw himself on his sword over this BS, too, or will he simply destroy the platoon’s PL?

While Biden is in office, it appears that his sycophants will be able to do what they want with impunity -- including the use of the military as puppets for their bidding. It's early in his reign, I am sure it will only get worse.

Yup - I saw this when it happened and giggled. A little later on had to tune into the Teams meeting to hear a three-star talk to us about extremism (part of the stand-down). Part of the class was what we CAN'T do in uniform. had a couple young Captains from the JAG School give that part of the presentation. Kind of funny as EVERYTHING these cats did (going to MTG's office) was against the rules/Reg/and quite possibly UCMJ.

But, as others have said - it was a "D" so no harm...no foul, nothing to see here. DID YOU HEAR ABOUT THE TRUMP CREATED CRISIS ON THE BORDER!!!???"

We are living in Alice in Wonderland as our republic slowly swirls the bowl. Winter is coming...
