    The chain of command is the primary way the military maintains order and performs its duties in the most efficient way possible. If a service member behaves in a way that disrupts the chain of command, she could be reprimanded for insubordination. The precise definitions of different types of insubordination are contained in Articles 89-92 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ). In general, a service member is guilty of insubordination against a superior officer (commissioned, warrant, or non-commissioned) if he assaults, disobeys, or disrespectfully treats that officer, regardless of whether that officer is in the same branch of the military or even within that service member's direct chain of command.

    And yet you blindly support a treasonous SCROTUS at every opportunity. The cognitive dissonance is strong in your post.

    A Purple Heart makes him a credible witness?
    :roflol:

    That does not explain the severity of his injury.
    Did he have a headache & need an Advil?

    False.

    That was Ciamerella along with Vindmann, Schiff, and others.

    You know, since a classified phone call was the original source.

    I guess we need to ignore the fact his boss said he does not follow the chain of command and coworkers were concerned he was a leaker because he has a Purple Heart.

    SCROTUS

    The term used in reference to a POTUS (President of the United States) who has all the intellect and appeal of a wrinkled ball sack.

    SCROTUS trump is citing conspiracy theories and calling reputable media "fake news" in another one of his pathetic Twitter tantrums.

    -or-

    SCROTUS
    noun
    US president Donald Trump. Acronym for "So-Called Ruler of the United States".


    Pick one. Whatever splits your banana. Something tells me you had zero problems understanding what El Rushbo meant by the term "screwls," though... :roll:

    Donald Trump was impeached and the vote to remove was bipartisan while the vote to acquit was partisan, wasn't it? And the Senators who voted to acquit are now constantly being asked to defend whether they actually believe that he learned a lesson.

    I'm not sure how reporting an unlawful order to a superior who is not the immediate superior "disrupts the chain of command." Similarly, I don't see how it qualifies as "assaulting, disobeying, or disrespectfully treating" the immediate superior.

    I believe it is the democrats who learned a lesson during impeachment.

    That lesson being ..... don’t do it unless you are going to win.

    Trump is stronger today thanks to Pelosi, Schiff and Nadler shyt show sham impeachment.

    Why would Trump learn a lesson?
    He won !

    Kelly is a Swamp creature who said he would have worked for Hillary if she'd won and asked him to.

    How does getting blown up in an road bomb make you credible? Timothy McVeigh served too. Vindman's former commander said he was a political activist in a uniform, he perjured himself during his testimony, and thought his foreign policy views should override the duly elected POTUS. That is insubordination. Good riddance, fatso.

    It certainly puts one above a coward who faked bone spurs to avoid the draft.

    This is such a ridiculous response.

    No one would have ever known Hunter Biden or Joe Biden was mentioned if it hadn't been for the Democrats who used it to plan an impeachment attempt.

    I mean you can keep doing the "Wizard of Oz" thing if you'd like, but I'm just gonna let you know you're behind a transparent curtain.

    Yes, unlike all the military veterans on the Democrat side.

    I mean you've got Biden, Sanders, Clinton....all widely decorated I'm sure.
