Obama's goofy 'rules of engagement' led to unjust imprisonment
...
In 2018, retired Army LTC John Maher invited me to join Clint’s defense team alongside two other former JAG officers, Maj. Kevin Mikolashek and LTC David Bolgiano. With the roadblocks presented by the Deep State inside the Pentagon, we realized that our only chance to free Clint might come through a presidential pardon from President Trump. I reached out to Pete, who agreed that we needed to bring Clint’s case back into the spotlight so he would no longer be forgotten. Pete said, “If you write the book, I’ll help get the case before the president.”
Working with LTC Maher and the defense team, and after a dozen trips to Leavenworth in 2018 to visit with and interview Clint, in 2019, my book, Travesty of Justice, was released. It exposed the Obama Pentagon’s hatchet job against an American soldier.
Enter Secretary-Designate Hegseth.
With the release of Travesty of Justice, Pete Hegseth kept his word. With the help of Sean Hannity, Pete revived Clint’s case, bringing it into the national limelight, alongside the then-current cases of Navy SEAL Eddie Gallagher and Green Beret Major Matt Golsteyn — three soldiers targeted under Obama’s reckless rules of engagement. Pete used my book as a tool to advocate for Clint, and on many occasions, he delivered evidence of Clint’s innocence directly to President Trump. On the night of November 15, 2019, after calls with President Trump and Vice President Pence to Leavenworth, Trump signed the pardon. Clint walked out of prison, a free man, wearing his Army dress blues.

The Biden and Obama administrations should be ashamed of their attempted decimation of our military. These woke fools serving as commander in chief have allowed the military to become a playground for social experimenters. It’s no wonder that the Army and Navy have fallen woefully short of their recruiting goals under Biden. These recruitment shortfalls have become a national security problem.
But no more.
No, as General Colin Powell once famously said, the purpose of the Army is to break things and kill people. Beyond that, our military’s purpose is to win America’s wars, nothing more and nothing less.
Our next secretary of defense isn’t a bureaucrat general like Lloyd Austin or a product of the military-industrial complex Eisenhower warned about. Pete Hegseth, a warrior’s warrior, will end CRT, DIE, forced vaccines, ridiculous pronouns, and drag show celebrations on bases with the stroke of a pen on day one. He won’t leave anyone behind — not on his watch.
Without Pete Hegseth, Clint would still be imprisoned at Leavenworth today. Instead, Clint graduated from law school, passed the bar exam, and is dedicating his life to defending others wronged by the military justice system.
“Weeping may tarry for the night, but joy comes with the morning,” the Psalmist wrote. With Pete Hegseth’s nomination as secretary of defense, joy has returned to our fighting forces, bringing a new dawn of hope and optimism for America’s military.
...
This gives another reason to support Hegseth's nomination for Secretary of Defense. He understands the military in ways the Obama-Biden administration rarely did. Hegseth was able to right a wrong by Obama and Biden. You should never send troops into harm's way with a restriction on their ability to defend themselves. Hegseth appears to understand that.
I am a former Marine Corps officer who was wounded in combat in Vietnam. At least we were able to return fire.
