One should keep this in mind the next time someone says retiree prosecutions are rare, and that therefore we shouldn't care that much about retiree jurisdiction. The threat of prosecution may be much less rare, and also works to chill expressive conduct and speech.

I cannot think of a better way to highlight the absurdity of retiree jurisdiction.

Military service does not forever forfeit core first amendment rights.

Such a prosecution probably would end retiree jurisdiction. Either by the SC or Congress. Which is why they won’t do it.

Agreed, which is why it continues to plod along. Serious enough of a threat to chill free speech, but not serious enough for anyone to kill it.

Consider the source, a fantasy conservative news site.

Yeah, because a Democrat admin would never try to silence a retired officer. Meanwhile, Trump was called every name under the sun by active and retired members.

So was President Clinton

I was around for the Clinton ire. It was common, but not intense. It was over issues like don't ask don't tell, draft dodging and nativity, real or perceived.

Trump pardoned Galleger, overrode Secretaries, and even found himself part of an E-5 Court Martial. It's different when the king comes done from his castle than when someone does something on his own accord in the trenches. Either way, retiree statements was covered by Ltc. V.

My thoughts on it go back to Gen Boykin's statements. Even if the intended audience isn't listening, someone is. So it's better to be discreet.
