Old (2025), but TOTALLY not fascism at all. For more context: https://www.npr.org/2025/07/03/1255164460/1a-army-07-03-2025 https://www.npr.org/2025/07/03/12551

Old (2025), but TOTALLY not fascism at all. For more context: https://www.npr.org/2025/07/03/1255164460/1a-army-07-03-2025 https://www.npr.org/2025/07/03/1255164460/1a-army-07-03-2025 So, we have a sitting US Senator/astronaut/Navy Vet who is being harassed by the "Secretary" of Defense for making a video telling troop that they can (and must) refuse unconstitutional orders. This tells us a bit about how the administration and DoD view the constitution versus chain-of-command. Thusly, I can only assume that these "Lieutenant Colonels" are there to be ordered to do things which they cannot refuse if constitutional, and will still be expected to do if unconstitutional. Totes not fascism.
