The Coast Guard will no longer classify swastikas and nooses as hate symbols.
This action, coupled with the President's call to hang Democratic members of Congress - both in the past few hrs - are more than "potentially divisive."
They are vile, unconscionable, and dangerous.

In my 12 years in the Navy, I only once invoked the claim of an unlawful order given to me. I was brought up on charges but was able to prevail by proving I was correct. It was a serious risk to my freedom, my rank, and my career, but I was damned sure of my position.

If you receive an illegal order, you have a duty to disobey.
This isn’t controversial.
A President calling for the execution of anyone who reminds service members of this oath is showing us why the duty to disobey illegal orders is so important in the first place.

If a reasonable person would know the order is illegal, you MUST refuse.
Obedience is not absolute, duty to the Constitution is.
Oath is to defend the Constitution not a person
Yes. U.S. service members have a legal and moral obligation to disobey an illegal order.
Not just the right.

Remember: The oligarchs who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us so they can become more powerful.
They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see where all the wealth and power have gone.
Don't fall for it.

Since I expanded California Highway Patrol deployments in late August, officers have:
☑️ Seized 1 ton of illegal drugs
☑️ Made 1,234 arrests
☑️ Recovered 216 stolen vehicles
☑️ Removed 54 illegal firearms
Public safety is improving and California is moving forward.
