🚨Heavy Handed removal of retiree benefits: A retired LCDR was just banned from all Navy bases and facilities in the Hampton Roads area for accidentally having a personal weapon in his vehicle at the base gate checkpoint. The retired naval officer has a Concealed Carry Permit. He also followed all directions provided to him by base security while voluntarily discussing his CC permit and noting that he had mistakenly had the weapon in his vehicle. Security suggested he turn around and come back without the weapon. He did so gladly and immediately returned back through the same gate (without the weapon of course) while the same security guards offered apologies for the inconvenience. The subsequent ban was an unexpected shock and a grave heavy-handed response to an honest mistake. The JAGs and Commander at Joint Expeditionary Base Little Creek have unilaterally removed all retiree benefits (except retiree pay) from an honorable man. He can no longer attend base functions, work a job on the base, use MWR facilities, or the commissary (military grocery store). Based on Secretary @PeteHegseth’s desire to ensure Second Amendment rights are defended by our Institutions, and that those exercising these rights are not unlawfully weaponized against, I pray this ban is quickly reversed.

Buried in Michael Atkinson’s explanation for why he rewrote the “whistleblower” rules to allow multiple layers of hearsay is a troubling claim, namely that the requirement for firsthand knowledge was unlawful. But saying “The statute required me to change the form from no hearsay to hearsay allowed” simply does not square with the text of 50 U.S. Code § 3033, which is silent on the issue and leaves it to the Inspector General to determine how to assess credibility. The previous rule excluding hearsay was entirely consistent with the statute’s requirement of “credibility”, in the sense that, as in a courtroom, it could reasonably be operationalized as requiring firsthand knowledge or at least supporting documentation, neither of which Ciaramella had. He did not even have specific knowledge of times or locations, only vague generalities. At most, Atkinson could argue he changed the policy as a matter of preference. But he cannot plausibly claim that the law required it. That is just a fake excuse on his part to deflect from the fact that he made this change just as Ciaramella walked in the door, and then covered his tracks both by failing to disclose the change and by backdating it, all of which points to him being part of the impeachment plot from day one.
