I love this man! The President is relentless in righting the wrongs of the quisling Democrat deep state.
Trump Orders Navy: Do Not Take Eddie Gallagher’s Navy SEAL Trident Pin
By KristennTaylor, Gateway Pundit, November 21, 2019:
President Trump firmly slapped down the insubordinate Navy Thursday after the service announced it was seeking to punish Naval Special Operations Chief Eddie Gallagher by kicking him out of the SEALs.
This comes just days after Trump restored Gallagher’s rank and pay grade as part of the Commander in Chief’s efforts to redress abuse in the military legal system against combat service members.
Trump ordered the Navy, via Twitter, to not take Gallagher’s SEAL Trident Pin away from him, “The Navy will NOT be taking away Warfighter and Navy Seal Eddie Gallagher’s Trident Pin. This case was handled very badly from the beginning. Get back to business!”
The Navy will NOT be taking away Warfighter and Navy Seal Eddie Gallagher’s Trident Pin. This case was handled very badly from the beginning. Get back to business!

Link to TGP report from Wednesday on the Navy mutiny against Trump with regard to Gallagher. Gallagher on Tuesday filed an IG complaint against the head of the SEALs, Rear Admiral Colling Green, accusing him of uttering contemptuous words against President Trump in a meeting Monday.Green announced he was targeting Gallagher even though Trump had just reinstated his rank following a malicious military prosecution of Gallagher that saw him acquitted of murder charges but convicted of posing with the corpse of an ISIS fighter.

POTUS should not be involved with operational decisions like that. Micromanagement at its worst!
Another “comment” from the one woman goon squad. A directive, issued by the Commander-in-Chief, should be overlooked? Obviously, you are not familiar with the Constitution of the United States of America, nor of the chain of command. To call this “Micromanagement” is beyond the pale. Even Basic Training, you are required to, verbatim, know and recite the first six of Article II of the United States Military Code of Conduct.
What does your Make-Believe Korean wife think of that?
You are an idiot. Nothing more to say,
You are responding to a parasitic moronic libturd troll…the idiot never served and has no clue about anything!
That, patd, is true. When she stated that there was no offense, for which the light bird could be court marshalled, I referenced Article 107 of the UMCJ. The light bird would receive five years of imprisonment, dishonorable discharge, and loss of any future benefits. I then told her, that if she had any questions …. to ask her JAG. Of course, she didn’t respond.
She didn’t respond because she couldn’t figure out how to contact JAG, or even what it was.
You are responding to a parasitic moronic libturd troll…the idiot never served and has no clue about anything!
Don’t bother yourself to refute a comment. Simply mindlessly disparage the person making the comment. It is The Goon Way.
Righting a wrong is not micromanagement.
Are you kidding? Do you know how stupid your statement is? You have NO idea what you’re talking about. The President is the top commander of the military. Period. Making “operational decisions” for the military is his job.
Are you kidding? Do you know how stupid your statement is?
Don’t even know what statement you are referring to, goon. Mindless venting from you- just what I would expect.
Added Comment: Noticed you couldn’t be bother to say what was stupid about my comment. I realize, contending with an issue, as opposed to simply mindlessly bloviating, would be too complicated for a goon.
Yes, to someone who has a brain that processes like yours does, it all does come out as “mindless venting.” I see you couldn’t respond to my statement. Best, you just lay off the keyboard for a while and “head” straight to your local mental hospital. Have them give you a 7-day a week electro-shock therapy regimen, for maybe a year. It’ll give the psych nurses something to do, and the adults on this site can get to normal debates without these third grade distractions! Cheers!
Thats why he is commander and chief.when a service man fighting for our freedom losses his because of an insubordinate navey officer he steps in! Great job president TRUMP.
If the SEAL command does not want him in one of their units, he should not be there.
Admittedly, the Trident doesn’t mean you are in a SEAL unit, so in some sense Trump’s directive is more symbolic than anything else. Nonetheless, while I don’t doubt the legality of his order, it makes no sense to undercut SEAL commanders the way he did.
Your post makes absolutely no sense.
And what, exactly, oh trenchant intellect, do you not understand?
say what? the seal commanders take their orders from the commander in chief. if they don’t like it, quit
Um, wearing the Trident pin absolutely means you are special forces. If not for the SEALS, just who do you think it’s for? Do you know anything about military command structure? If ANYONE other than a SEAL wears the Trident pin, they will be considered ‘out of uniform’ and can be subject to the UCMJ. So, you are clearly uninformed. So, learn about the SEALS, the Trident and special forces before you go spouting off nonsense.
Um, wearing the Trident pin absolutely means you are special forces.
Wearing a Trident does not mean you are serving in a SEAL unit.
If you think otherwise, you just don’t know what you are talking about, goon. Well you don’t anyway- tell us about the jurisdictions in the USA where it is legal to murder a baby after it has been born.
Gee, you served in the U.S. Navy, right? Because you seem to be an authority on EVERYTHING! Or, is it you think you know all about the Trident because you jerked off, as a kid, to a SEAL pictured on a cereal box. You are entertaining, though.
Or, is it you think you know all about the Trident because you jerked off, as a kid, to a SEAL pictured on a cereal box. You are entertaining, though.
Pure mindless drivel that addresses nothing I said. Thank you for making your intellectual level crystal clear.
Those of you who “like” this kind of foul-mouthed idiocy promote it. This site, and its comment sections, could be informative, but because of the idiotic goons- and those who support them- I believe it ill-serves the counter-jihad movement.
Not all of those who support Pamela’s goals are idiots.
Thistle, I am disappointed to see you join in supporting the mindless, wholly unsubstantiated calumnies about me here.
That’s ok. I understand you might be under the psychiatric treatment of an intern, who himself used to be a patient at Creedmore state hospital, but you really should get someone who knows what they are doing. Because whatever you’re doing now ain’t working. Cheers!
Get many up votes, sport? Oh, that’s right, because you’re the one spouting the drivel Now, you’re an expert on Special Forces, because your neighbor’s dog told you all that, through telepathy, right?
How in the world will Thistle ever be able to live with this? Please, CONTINUE to humiliate yourself … As they say, “Laughter is the best medicine”.
What does the murder of a baby have to do with this article and/or thread? Once again, you HUMILIATE yourself. Judas, you’re nothing but a one woman goon squad, with the intellect of an aphid.
What does the murder of a baby have to do with this article and/or thread?
It has quite a bit to do with his idiotic statements and his overall credibility, goon. Mindlessly channeling Trump (not a great source of reliable information) he did once claim that it was legal, somewhere or other in the USA, to murder babies after they were born.
Again, one woman goon squad, what does that have to do with the subject at hand? I have such a great time, laughing AT you, while you continue to HUMILIATE yourself.
On your abortion question, verbatim quote from Virginia’s governor:
“If a mother is in labor…the infant would be delivered. The infant would be kept comfortable. The infant would be resuscitated if that’s what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physicians & mother”
In case you missed this, the first time around … the VERBATIM quote from Virginia’s governor, on that state’s abortion law(s):
“If a mother is in labor…the infant would be delivered. The infant would be kept comfortable. The infant would be resuscitated if that’s what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and mother”.
Although I am not a physician, this does sound as if a baby, born alive “delivered” (sounds like full delivery, doesn’t it) can be killed, following a discussion between the “physicians and mother”.
Please go away.
Why? Did I say something incorrect? If so, what??
Once she gets her ass handed to her, she has to deflect. Typical for a mental patient in her severe condition. The psych doc is trying to help her, but theres only so many electro-shock therapy sessions a day he’s allowed to give her. I mean, at 3X a day, as it is, its already a comedy show, because its supposed to reduce her need for spouting stupid comments. Its actually increasing her penchant for leaving stupid comments. Something the psych doc has never seen before.
‘Are you getting this, Lying Latrine Specialist?’
TOO forkin’ funny!
It’s a troll…I blocked a long time ago.
Trump is the commander in Chief, you feather brained imbecile.
changed comment please sea above
Not a thing wrong with any military member eliminating a Muslin terrorist, by whatever means.

As you probably know, those are not American rules of engagement. Rather shamefully, I would say, in Iraq, those rules basically boiled down to they have to fire first.
you are a moron. “american rules of engagement”? in 1944, bull halsey hung a sign over a pacific naval base where our boys sailed out to fight the japs that said “kill japs, kill japs, kill japs”. now THAT used to be america’s rules of engagement when we didn’t lose every war we got into
We don`t lose wars,we stay engaged until we see the leadership our leaders want. Like Vietnam. We got out when the communists were ready to take over. We could have wiped that sh@#% hole off the map. Lives don`t matter to them that pull the strings . It`s always money, money,money. 66-70
you are a moron. “american rules of engagement”? in 1944,bull halsey
You know something, (well ok, I know you don’t), you’re a repulsive idiot. Rules of engagement have changed a bit in WW II- you implicitly admit as much. My summary claim about how the rules played out in Iraq was accurate, goon.
I once heard the late Adm James Lyons say he was “ashamed” of the rules of engagement imposed on US forces during the Obama administration. Gotta wonder if you think he was a “moron” too. Sheesh, you guys are nitwits.
Our so-called “rules of engagement” have been getting good men killed and kicked out of the services for too long. A nation which lets reporters or lawyers run its wars – isn’t going to win too many wars. No one who hasn’t been in battle with Gallagher has any business judging him.
barry would have ignored this but beau bergdahl….? barry just couldn’t keep his slimy hands off mrs b and been so gushy. After all they’re all muslims
Don’t forget Bradley Manning. I think Hussein Obama wanted to date him when he “changed” to Chelsea….
No, former president obimbo wanted to date him BEFORE he “changed”.
Victor, do not forget Michael New, ( http://www.mikenew.com/index.html )a a combat Army medic who was court marshaled and separated from the military because he (was the only one in his company who) refused to take on the battle dress uniform of the United Nations? Bill Clinton allowed him to be summarily kicked out of the military?
not near enough from the donald yet. the military brass, most of whom were promoted by the muslim and are democrats, should have been cleared out on day 1. the perfect example of this is that evil little twit lt. colonel testifying against his commander in chief in the kangaroo court on capitol hill. how dare an officer question a phone call from his commander in chief and go blathering about it to the deep state….the guy should be court martialed. the navy brass who made gallagher’s life miserable should all have been fired by trump…they are unqualified to be officers in the american navy
The prosecution attempted to bug the office(s) of defense counsel. He was placed in pre-trial confinement, exculpatory evidence was buried … and the list goes on, and on, and on.
ASS
Hi, Joy. Quite erudite, aren’t you?
He was also denied medical care for his traumatic brain injury (TBI).
…I believe that President Trump is holding back just a little until he is sworn in for his second term…..then he has nothing to lose to do what he wants to do and what we want him to do. I am so excited about his second term….it’s going to a dozzie.
My concern is the compromised RINOs…..they are our biggest problem.
Clean out the deep state no matter who it is .
His reward should be summary execution for sedition in uniform…treason, imo.
Absolutely correct one of Americas finest Generals Doug MacArthur as fired for insubordination so that should be a excellent example of CHAIN of command and Truman said the bucks stops here . The Admiral perhaps needs a refresher course in chain of command / better yet fired .
Macarthur (sic) was fired for insubordination so that should be a excellent example of CHAIN of command and Truman said the bucks stops here .
Truman fired a four star. Very different matter from getting involved with personnel decisions regarding a Chief Petty Officer.
The situation may actually be worse than I thought- situation is a little unclear to me (Trump is rarely crystal clear about details) but it almost appears that Trump is ordering that Gallagher serve in a SEAL unit. That is quite different to simply having the right to wear the Trident.
Bill, you show no understanding of organizations in general, let alone one as hierarchical one as the Navy. Trump has undercut his own commanders.
The POTUS has the authority to fire anyone in any way he pleases in the Chain of command of the Military . It sounds like you have never served or you would understand that fact . Not that it makes a difference but General MacArthur was 5 stare General when relieved of command . At that level it goes like This # 1 POTUS, # 2 General George C Marshall 5 star chief of staff US Army out ranked MacArthur by 6 days time in grade then #3General MacArthur General of the Army . My understanding of organizations in general is not in question but since you made that statement I would say that would be a better description of you than me it seems ha .
Hey Admiral Green there is only one Commander in Chief and his name is Donald J Trump. Follow your orders Admiral Green or get out of the Navy.
A far as quite a lot of the military chiefs are concerned and along with the various intelligence services, the Democratic Party, a large chunk of Republicans, and the members of the CFR are concerned the POTUS is only a figurehead and should have no power or authority in domestic of foreign affairs. They believe he is not allowed to investigate corruption or overturn the decisions of anti-American servants of the global governance crowd.
…with President Trump….they were wrong.
Thank you, Mr. President!
Green should be discharged. He can’t be trusted.
If IG confirms utterance of contemptuous remarks by Admiral Green of the Commander in Chief the Navy should issue Green a dishonorable discharge.
Spammer…..
Bravo I 2nd that statement and accentuate the get out of the navy part !
Andrew, I”m very proud of President Trump for what he did for those three Patriots. I wasn’t in the Navy long enough to work on the Trident Program, but I did work on the Polaris one.back in 1961-1963.
Thanks for your service 1961-63 when America was still America and very cool; before the damn cockroaches (i mean the Beatles) came to the USA.
From what we have seen over the last three years, especially in the last two weeks, these people in the deep state do not recognize Trump as their Commander and Chief. They have gone behind his back and have been defying his orders and have been conspiring to kick him out of office. They have no problem lying under oath and making up stories to make it look like Trump has done something wrong. They cannot come to terms with the fact that he outsmarts them every time. Every other republican wuss (that’s you Mittens Romney) has folded like an old newspaper at the first sign of trouble from the left. Trump kicks their ass every day and they are losing their collective mind.
All of the military in the west have long been infested with leftism BUT only at the officer level as a rule. This came about first by the leftist infiltration of the law which then metastasized to military law and military lawyers and then infected the higher ranks totally as generals and admirals as a rule, see themselves as politicians.
If you ever see Admiral Green in full dress uniform, you can see he is worth more as scrap metal, from all his medals, that as on officer of the line.
Time for a Navy Admiral to retire in lieu of Court Martial.
Ppl get so angry when a dead Muslims corpse is desecrated as it deserves to be. Such cowardly cucks we have in the military #NOTALL
GLORY TO THE HERO!
This adequately shows the degree of vindictiveness which Gallagher and others had to face under the Halfrican’s rules of engagement.
From the outset I have said Trump is like a college football coach taking over a sagging program. There is so much he has to undo before instituting a winning culture.
Trump 2020!
In a nutshell, MISTER Vindman appears to be a product of Hussein Obama’s “let the transgenders in the military” policy. Navy SEAL NSO Chief Gallagher was absolutely railroaded by Hussein Obama’s insane policy regarding American soldiers conduct during WAR. Collin Green appears to prefer Hussein Obama’s insane policies to President Trump’s “take-the-gloves-off-and-fight-them-where-you-find-’em” wartime policy.
Collin Green will be defended to the hilt by Pelosi, Schitt and the rest of democRAT mob…..
…they can “defend” him all they want…..the military is not in their wheelhouse of power or influence…..
I have said it before but it is great having a genuine American bad ass as President and Commander in chief. Traitors throughout the military your days are numbered!
President Trump, THANK YOU for righting a wrong that was done at the APPOINTED muslem WANNABE DICKTASTER.
Can you now do something about all of the CENSORSHIP that these PUBLIC SQUARE internet CABALS are NOW DOING?
Can you please do something about the ABUSIVE USE OF POWER done to Mr. R. Stone and the KANGAROO COURT that “found him guilty” – – of supporting the President!!!
Another leftist appointment. Fire him Mr. President!
Time for the President look at the military leadership for changes. It wouldn’t be the first time a purge of military was done.

So what do you do with all those photos taken by servicemen (service people?) during WWI, WWII, Vietnam, et cetera, with soldiers showing dead enemies or posing after battle? How about taking away rank from the dead heroes, and taking away the pensions of still living veterans?
What about journalists who took photos of soldiers with dead enemies around? Fire then all? Oh, they were just doing their job.
Talk about a stupid policy!
This was the most they could find on him? Too many Democrats running the military. Love to see Rear Admiral Colling Green disobey Trump, and see what happens to him.
President is exposing more and more everyday that the DEEP STATE SWAMP and the MILITARY INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX are no longer a talking point or a rumor….THEY ARE REAL and the enemy within…..
For once, PC lost the battle. What a refreshing change from the Obumfook regime!
Typical of our Navy. I was gungho for the first years,then all the crap I saw,Lifers stealing,lifers physically abusing enlisted,sex abuse ………all I wanted was out. That so called Admiral may with my blessings, go poo poo in his hat & pull it down over his ears.
Yeah, me as well. I wanted to stay in, but some of the things you list persuaded me it was not the best decision I could make.
Were you, by chance, in the Navy in the seventies? I was 1970-1973. It was a mess, and getting worse at that time. And I was an East Coast sailor, based on ships out of Norfolk, no where near Vietnam…
As I said, I was gungho for the 1st years. Boot camp at Great Lakes.!st duty station was Co. Commander aid, right back at Great Lakes. Took 3 companies thru bootcamp.2nd duty station was an old ww2 Destroyer out of Pearl Harbor. Made 2 ‘cruises’ roughly 9 mo. each to Vietnam, where we delivered airborn willy peter to coastal villages, fire support,sank sampans,etc,,& a Chinese gun runner,one dark night.& more. 3rd duty station, a more modern Destroyer out of Long Beach. Had Riot training for watts riots, I might have stayed in had I started out on that 3rd duty station. Good officers,crew. I wasn`t on board very long before my discharge. GMG3, On that 1st Destroyer, I was about to test for GMG2, and an officer told me not to take the test….because I didn`t party w/ the crew. No sh%t. That soured me big time on the US Navy. F#@k them. My explanation of wife & 2 kids, didn`t matter. Enlisted in 66, honorable discharge in Feb. 1970. When I walked off that ship for the last time, I never looked back.
President Trump: Thank God we have a real American as President!
It’s a badge. Not a pin.
The American Military has only 2 purposes:
—serve and follow the policies of the American President and
—protect America’s interest abroad
and that may entail WHATEVER THE PRESIDENT’S POLICIES AND COMMANDS ARE and not any General or military leadership’s agenda.
ANY General who thinks they have more power than the President, THEIR TOP COMMANDING OFFICER, needs to be ousted or court-martialed.
The American Military has only 2 purposes:

Tom, that is simply an astonishingly ignorant statement. Try this on for size:
I, [name], do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God. (Ref 1)
Nothing about POTUS. A general who followed an unlawful order, even from POTUS, could find himself in trouble.
ANY General who thinks they (sic) have more power than the President, … needs to be ousted or court-martialed.
Quite right. Trump knows more than the generals.
Sheesh, it’s not about “power”- it’s about knowledge and operational responsibility. It remains to be seen if Trump’s statement is about Gallagher’s Trident is a lawful order.

You are a true Patriot, Mr. President. You have a our military and law enforcement backs against the enemies of America….both .within and without.
How I wish we had a man like Trump running the UK.
He would fit in just fine at CNN, nor would he be the first to do that.
Admiral Green’s days in the Navy are short. He has likely been told to put in his papers or be fired. It is never good to mess with the civilian hierarchy that oversees the military.
THIS ADMIRAL GREEN SUPPORTED PERSECUTION OF A NAVY CHAPLAIN WHO INSISTED ON PRAYING IN JESUS’ NAME AS HIS DENOMINATION/FAITH DIRECTS BECAUSE IT OFFENDED ISLAMIC SAILORS WHO DO A LOT OF THINGS THAT OFFEND CHRISTIANS! HE GOT AWAY WITH IT UNDER THE OBAMA WHO SUPPORTED THE MUSLIMS AND WAS TERRIBLE FOR MILITARY CHAPLAINS! HAPPY HOLIDAY SEASON!
Good job by Gallagher filing the IG complaint on the Admiral and exposing his insubordination to DJT who won’t look kindly on it. That POS Admiral is probably the one responsible for the helicopter of SEALS sent on the one-way mission to die so they will stay quiet about the fake Osama story. He is likely responsible for other SEALS charged for doing absolutely nothing wrong. Demote the bastard and throw him out of the Navy. But first, take away the Rear-End Admiral’s Trident and throw him out!
The Navy has decided to ignore President Trump’s wishes and take the Seal’s Trident from him. Late news on Saturday afternoon.
It is a travesty that fine men like Eddie Gallagher are being punished for such inconsequential acts. Taliban, ISIS and al-Qaeda terrorists and jihadists commit the most-heinous human rights abuses possible, such as executing innocent civilians on camera and then posing with their severed heads, but the military career and reputation of a fine SEAL like Gallagher is going to thrown away over such a small thing? Personally, if it was up to me, I’d promote Gallagher, pin another medal on him, and thank him for being the warrior he is on behalf of our nation. But if Big Navy can’t manage that, then write him a letter of reprimand for his file. The fact the man is being railroaded stinks to high heaven, and I for one smell a rat, specifically someone pushing this. Perhaps one of our so-called “allies” in the Arab Middle East.
