Pentagon Fails the American People and Ignores Its Constitutional Requirements

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart

I have known about ‘the real Donald Trump’ since 2015 when I began writing about the failed businessman. However, I, and no other political writer could have foreseen how horrific his illegitimate presidencies have become.

The mainstream media won’t tell the absolute truth, but I will. Trump is a fascist, a Hitler wannabe, and the leader of the American Nazi Party. Thanks to six corrupt Supreme Court Justices, he has become a dictator. Placing him above the law and granting him powers not intended by our Founding Fathers allows him to ignore his responsibilities as a sitting president and use his position for personal gain and revenge on his millions of enemies.

Trump has absolute control over actions by the executive, judicial, and legislative branches of our government.

What disappoints and frightens me the most is how the Pentagon surrendered to a fascist who is a draft dodger and once called American soldiers buried in France after WWI “losers and suckers.”

Every government employee is required to take an oath prior to their employment. The oath slightly differs depending on the position, but is consistent with one line: “a solemn promise to support and defend the U.S. Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic.”

Trump violates the Constitution several times a day. My claim is irrefutable. Therefore, our nation’s military bears no responsibility to obey the orders of their Commander-in-Chief. There sole obligation is the safety and security of the American people.

So, why is the Pentagon complicit in the first-degree murders of more than 100 individuals in power boats off the coast of Argentina? Why is it committing war crimes and violating the UCMJ: the Universal Code of Military Justice? And why did they ignore the attempted coup on January 6, 2021? It lasted for more than three hours and the men and women in the Pentagon sat on their fat asses and allowed one man and his Nazi Army to engage in a violent insurrection inside the Capitol Building. This is another part of the reason why the United States military has lost every war since WWII: total incompetence combined with a lack of loyalty to their country: we, the people of the United States of America.

The only possible reason is that they are eager and willing to end democracy, destroy the Constitution and support a fascist regime with Trump as their Fuhrer.

When Senator Mark Kelly and others made a truthful statement about our military’s responsibility to obey the Constitution and ignore the commands of their superior officers, they were simply stating facts.

There was a time when obeying the Law of the Land, the Constitution, took precedent over all other actions by our nation’s government and its military forces.

Today, Trump, his woefully unqualified Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, and the brass inhabiting the Pentagon are literally taking a big, fat dump on our country’s most sacred document.

I am deeply saddened as I watch the country I love take its final breaths.
