Officials said the individuals were taken into custody Friday and face charges under the Uniform Code of Military Justice. They are expected to be discharged and could face jail time.

“Protesting as a private citizen is permitted, but doing so in uniform misleads the public into thinking the military endorses a political stance,” a Pentagon spokesperson said. “That undermines the integrity of the armed forces.”

The Defense Department has repeatedly reminded service members that they are barred from participating in partisan or political demonstrations while in uniform.

it’s all fine and good, but since when does a pentagon spokesperson have to justify enforcing the military code? they broke the rules, and that’s all there is to it.

The War Department should put them in jail. Retired military may wear the uniform to formal events and events that project honor on the service. This is a discrace they new not to do it…..give them hell

Uch. That ugly white Karen whore is as miserable as they come. How in the world did the Biden administration allow the female dog to into the military in the first place?

1. War Department. No longer defense department.

2. Glad they caught these loons. Wouldn’t want them in any position to hurt fellow soldiers because of their twisted world views

I like when she started whining. Eddie, help us please. I think they would have been more effective if they would have protested by setting themselves on fire like some others have done.
