@dmac_doc @LikeaChief1 @mjfree Certainly, as yours does to you. But National Prayer Breakfast is certainly a violation of course with the current court & general atmosphere, I don’t expect any fruitful fight.

U.S. Army Maj. Gen. William Green Jr., who was unanimously confirmed by the Senate in 2023 as the Army's chief of chaplains and fired by Secretary Pete Hegseth April 2nd, delivered the House opening prayer earlier this year in January:"Beneath the weight of duty and the press of time, we need your grace. Help us hear the whisper of conscience, the voice of the forgotten, and wisdom from above." @cspan c-span.org/congress/?cham

Two star military chaplain publishes a 112 page spiritual guide for 🇺🇸 warriors. Zero mentions of Jesus. ZERO. Non-denominational writings will at least recognizes Jesus as a historical figure. Marxists erase him altogether. General Green is a commie.

So SecWar Pete Hegseth just fired Maj. Gen. William Green Jr., the US Army’s (now former) Chief of Chaplains. I have zero insider information on this, but I have my own theories as to why it happened. Green’s most important event as the Chief of Chaplains was to produce the United States Army’s “Spiritual Fitness Guide.” Published in July of 2025, Stars & Stripes wrote an article on this with a link to the guide. (I’ll put all related links in a comment email one below.) I’ll save you the trouble of clicking on that link — it goes to the US Army’s website, and it’s “404 Page Not Found.” That kind of explains a lot, doesn’t it? So I went and found a full copy of that “Guide” elsewhere (in, of all places, a “Military Atheist” website; link in the post below). Go check it out. Do a word search for the word “God.” Go ahead. Do it. It shows up exactly ONCE. How can you have a guide to spiritual fitness without mentioning God????? But what that “guide" DOES TALK about is a bunch on New Age gobbledygook. Let me give you a taste: "The Soldier’s Spirit lies at the intersection of external influences (stimulus) and applied behavior (response). It is the vital junction that supports the weight of life and drives Soldier action. In a relatable way, the Soldier’s spirit is much like a compass in life, providing substance to the direction that they take in life and the decisions they make. This reality makes understanding and developing the Soldier's spirit crucial, as the direction of a Soldier ultimately shapes the direction and well-being of the Army.” The primary mission of the Chaplain Corps is to “provide religious support” to soldiers (from their official mission statement). Yet the US Army’s “Spiritual Fitness Guide” reads like it was written by John Lennon and Yoko Ono on a bender—not a word of encouragement for a soldier’s faith, but pages upon pages of New Age nonsense that makes Universalism sound like rational thought and really does imagine no religion. Yeah, one does not need to understand why a man of faith like Pete Hegseth fired a wishy washy New Age Pharisee like Green.

The President, via the Sec of Defense, can deny promotions at will and unilaterally dictate who is sent to the Senate for promotions. This idea that inferior officers in the chain of command can refuse to obey such an order is absolute nonsense and very clearly grounds for removal.
Mike Young@micyoung75

Driscoll refused to pull the names for months. Hegseth did it himself, likely illegally. George asked to discuss it. Hegseth refused the meeting, then fired him two years into a four-year term. Nine officials confirmed. Pentagon disputed nothing specific.

What we saw in Gen. George's firing is a reminder that the military is supposed to be under civilian control. Most people have no idea that today's military complex fights tooth and nail to self-govern and push oversight that's accountable to voters out of the Pentagon. People assume incorrectly that the military is 100% noble, and above being taken to task. It's not. The Secretary of War saw a problem with a number of officers that the Army tried to push through for promotion. As the representative of the elected administration, it is his responsibility to gate keep on who becomes the next generation of senior military officers. Hegseth exercised that lawful authority, as many have before him. This is how things work when the law is followed. The @SecWar is being generous in not airing the dirty laundry and allowing these officers to retire without scarlet letter. Those rushing to castigate this move for political points are undermining that effort. If you want to care about the troops, do it more than when it's to your political and algorithmic advantage. We all know you'll move on and forget in 48 hours.

@CourageIsC57112 @LikeaChief1 @mjfree You're placing limitations where the court did not. The court determined that providing chaplains is a valid accommodation of soldiers' Free Exercise rights.

@dmac_doc @LikeaChief1 @mjfree Katcoff v. Marsh - 2nd circuit has ruled that only on Oversees deployed troops & ofcourse prisons, which is understandable because they can’t go somewhere to practice. I can concede Chaplain for oversees stationed troops.

@WadeMiller As a new chaplain myself I find it very interesting that a chaplain thought it was right to keep catholic chaplains out.

@johnkonrad @RobManess If your mission is to weaken the US military, the DEI agenda was already well on its way to accomplishing it. You truly can’t hate the woke mind virus enough.

Wait. Wait. Wait. I thought everyone knew about the chaplain corps move. Based on my DMs, maybe not. Navy Chaplains assigned to the Marine Corps were resistant to the cultural revolution happening across the force. So… Admiral Gilday, the avowed defender of Ibram X. Kendi, and General Mark Milley moved the entire Navy Chaplain School from South Carolina to Rhode Island to, in their words, “shift it culturally and intellectually” towards the Naval Woke College. They said it out loud. The chaplains who wouldn’t bend the knee got relocated.

Ha. Anyway, I think the present arrangement is because Maxwell and Rhode Island have their OTS / OCS campuses there. It allows their chaplains and JAGs to go straight to tech school without another TDY, and it makes reserving space for field training much smoother. Medical officers, as far as I know, don't necessarily do the Ft Sam thing.

On the firing of MG Green: "Where I work, the chaplains are weeping and gnashing teeth, overlooking the fact that GO’s do not get fired for no reasons. You can’t expect to keep your job when you stood by idly during the transgender nonsense, when you supported the unconstitutional vax mandate and opposed religious accommodation requests, and when you endorsed and promoted blah, non-religious “spiritual” programs and trainings that help nobody. So long." (Anonymous Chaplain America) 📥

@CourageIsC57112 @LikeaChief1 @mjfree Chaplains do not violate separation for church and state. That protect service members' right to practice their religion or no religion at all. Service members benefit from religious support.

Barack Obama fired nearly 200 Generals and Admirals who had risen through the ranks to earn those positions DURING WARTIME. President Trump is firing Generals who rose through up through the ranks to their positions via DEI during peacetime.

DRIVE-BY MEDIA: Obama purged nearly 200 white military officers including dozens of flag officers. The media called it leadership. Trump removes 6 officers & they call it a coup. The drive-by media does not have standards. It has a team.
