Answers and accountability are coming.
After three months of the Department of Defense engaging in a review of what Hegseth rightly calls ‘this catastrophic event in our military’s history,‘ he has ordered Sean Parnell, Assistant to SecDef for Public Affairs and Senior Advisor, to convene a Special Review Panel for a comprehensive review.

Hegseth charges Parnell’s team, after thoroughly examining ‘previous investigations,’ with ensuring ‘ACCOUNTABILITY to the American people and the warfighters of our great Nation.’
This is someone you may remember hearing about shortly after the tragedy of Abbey Gate unfolded – Marine Corps LtCol Stuart Scheller.
The only officer who publicly demanded accountability for the disaster and who then – rightfully or wrongly, depending on your point of view (he was given a lawful order to cease and desist his public statements) – was forced out of the Marine Corps short of his retirement when he wouldn’t stop demanding it.
The only officer who ever suffered any career damage, not to mention spent some time in the brig, in the aftermath of all the unforgivable death, destruction, and waste, was the one Marine courageous enough to throw the bulls**t flag.
One of the senior advisors who only recently began working at the Pentagon at the beginning of this month is that same Stuart Scheller.
LtCol Scheller will now be part of the team searching for the truth about the Afghanistan withdrawal. They will be demanding those answers from the officers and unelected bureaucrats who hadn’t the courage to lay their rank insignia or jobs on a desk in protest of the catastrophic plans.

Because they were ‘just following orders.’
Ironic that I will be investigating who should be held accountable for Afghanistan.
Thank you Pete Hegseth for your leadership.

…“General McKenzie, you went from 2,500 troops in Afghanistan in April, to 650 in July, and then turned around and put 5,000 back in Kabul. You’ve said repeatedly that you personally believed the Afghan government would fall if we didn’t maintain a certain number of troops in the country. So why didn’t you plan for an evacuation and leave enough troops on the ground to conduct it.” Rep Seth Moulton (D)
“I’m going to fall back on the orders I was given, Representative.” General McKenzie
Just following orders.

This disgusting blowhard. I can’t wait.
YES, HE ACTUALLY SAID THAT: Responding to calls for his resignation, Gen. Milley compared himself to the men who landed at Iwo Jima and the men and women who were killed in Kabul during the botched withdrawal from Afghanistan. pic.twitter.com/u5mlf4qJ9C

I DON’T HAVE ANY REGRETS
General Lloyd Austin says he has “no regrets” after 13 American service members were killed in botched withdrawal from Afghanistan

NO ONE HAS EVER BEEN HELD ACCOUNTABLE ~ Lloyd Austin
🚨 NEW—@HouseForeignGOP released their damning report on the Biden-Harris Administration’s catastrophic Afghanistan withdrawal:
“At each step of the way…the administration picked optics over security.”
Our 13 fallen troops deserved better than this deliberate incompetence.… https://t.co/1HHfthRrri pic.twitter.com/JITeqEi2Qy

According to the 2024 House Foreign Affairs Committee report, POTATUS was ‘hellbent’ on getting out of Afghanistan.
President Biden was so hellbent on getting out of Afghanistan that he rebuked any advice to the contrary, ignored the pleas of the Afghan government and disregarded objections from US allies.
That was the one of the main takeaways from the House Foreign Affairs Committee’s more than two-year investigation into America’s chaotic, deadly Afghanistan withdrawal, according to a blistering report released Sunday.
“During his decades-long tenure as a Delaware US senator, eight years as vice president of the United States and nearly four years as president, Mr. Biden has demonstrated distrust of America’s military experts and advisors and has prioritized politics and his personal legacy over America’s national security interests,” the roughly 350-page report asserted.
None of them had any problem stretching the truth about any of it then.
…His administration consistently lied to and misled the American public to try to convince it to support his consequences-be-damned view that the US should swiftly end its 20-year war in Afghanistan, the review said.
And once he got his way, cost be damned, POTATUS had better things to do with what brain cells he had left.

Not a single one of those officers ever laid their stars, eagles, or oak leaves on a table and said, ‘I cannot in good conscience let you do this to my troops.’
Not a one.
They were all just following orders from a what we now know to be a confirmed vegetable and thought they’d be protected by the machine that raised them to their lofty roles for the rest of their careers and lives.
Heh.
This is a good day.
I hope Milley, Austin, Sullivan, Blinken, the whole disgraced, soulless squad of eggheads…I hope every last one of them is pooping his drawers right now.
Thirteen times over at the very least, with every thought of the ghosts of Abbey Gate comin’ a’ callin.’
