"We witnessed actions inside the Capitol building that were inconsistent with the rule of law. The rights of freedom of speech and assembly do not give anyone the right to resort to violence, sedition and insurrection," they wrote in the statement.The statement is considered a significant step because the chiefs seek wherever possible to avoid taking stances that may have political overtones.
Investigation into Capitol attack is unprecedented in scope, Justice Department says"As Service Members, we must embody the embody the values and ideals of the Nation. We support and defend the Constitution. Any act to disrupt the Constitutional process is not only against our traditions, values, and oath; it is against the law," the statement said.
Wow, that this even needs saying is a horrible indictment od DT & the GOP
Oh the irony of a Country founded on sedition and insurrection crying about people rising up against left wingers who then respond with censorship and threats
Weak. If they were to defend the Constitution, Biden would not be installed as President. His Presidency is illegitimate.
speakout_april We have to accept the facts, there are numerous extremists in our military along with law enforcement officers.
What took you so long, General? Trump should have been arrested long ago!
BrianAnthonyBo1 This is amazing. Thank you Generals. But what are you going to do about one of your own... Michael Flynn? USForcesKorea USForcesRX
I'm so tired of them condemning this! Get off your asses and get these people! Hell the chic who hacked 'Parler' has all the info they need! Jesus!
Hey cnn, what exactly is your mission? Cuz most of us think it’s division.
When Democrat leaders promoted violence nothing. Pelosi,Harris, Waters.
As a U.S. VET I'm SO Proud of our Joint Chief of Staff - he CONDEMNED Sedition - the Violent Riot on our US Capitol last week. & reminded service members of their obligation = Support & Defend the Constitution & Reject Extremism. IE Defend Our DEMOCRACY
Did they issued a statement condemning the looting and burning of helpless people's businesses and cities during summer?
Can't wait to see how they handle the military that was there.
The tear gas general has little to no credibility.
Excellent! Absolutely imperative that our military leaders make it clear that any attempt at a coup will not be tolerated. Period, end of discussion!
How sad they have to tell them. If involved, they should get a dishonorable discharge
🤨right
This is important news to calm the fears of the nation. I trust the Chiefs!
Does that include Democrats who put them in harms way for their own personal benefit? How can they defend a document that no longer means anything?
Many of these groups have military members,police, politicians as well as other very special Ppl!
wow a whole week later huh?
bearmomruns Then maybe they should start by discontinuing the constant loop of Fox 'News' being shown in public spaces on military bases.
If you have to remember, something bad is brewing
This is Trump after January 20. No more teeth!
THANK YOU Joint Chiefs of Staff!!
johnnypherome Wasn’t this pretty slow?😞
Nearly a whole bloomin week later!
We're really appreciate their respective efforts
Just like any empire should
Let's hope there will be more Guards who believe in their oath taken to protect the constitution than those who have swallowed 30 years of fox propaganda, limbaugh/beck gaslighting and trump/rep.s lies..
I don’t know is a little too late. What you people think.
So like reject BLM and anQifa’s cool. Cuz didn’t they last time bow down a take a knee for nigs?
Read the Joint Chiefs statement:
Good for gen Millie! And the country
Hmm! As if this is the first riot in America. Get some shame please
But did they condemn Trump’s role in instigating this, engineering it practically since his inauguration?
I would be fine with a military takeover. It worked in Chile.
With last week’s events, Trump has most officially shot the 2024 campaign on the foot
Hope they condemned BLM thugs too.
They need to be reminded to go buy Hellcats
