Update:
  • Executive Order, signed.
  • The JSC has kindly provided these two documents: here and here.
  • White House fact-sheet.
  • These amendments shall take effect as of the date of this order, subject to the following:
              (a)  Nothing in these amendments shall be construed to make punishable any act done or omitted prior to the date of this order that was not punishable when done or omitted.
              (b) Nothing in these amendments shall be construed to invalidate any nonjudicial punishment proceeding, restraint, investigation, referral of charges, trial in which arraignment occurred, or other action begun prior to the date of this order, and any such nonjudicial punishment, restraint, investigation, referral of charges, trial, or other action may proceed in the same manner and with the same effect as if these amendments had not been prescribed.
Per MilitaryTimes:

"President Joe Biden on Wednesday will sign an executive order to make sexual harassment an offense under the Uniform Code of Military Justice.
​
According to White House officials, the executive order will also strengthen the military’s response to domestic violence incidents and increase penalties for service members who share “intimate visual images” without permission."

Do we have a copy of the EO annex, where the new offenses seem to be defined?

What is to prevent the perception that defense counsel careers are in that much more jeopardy? A service level office can pull a lot of strings. Shaw will look prophetic, if not an underachiever.

You know who these changes benefit? Lawyers.

Go ahead, demonitize me.
