Dear –

The past two weeks have in our opinion seen an extraordinary and unique occurrence in American history:  a well-funded, highly-coordinated,  group of partisan citizens inside America publishing a widespread media blitz calling for sedition and disobedience within the United States military, and seeking to sever its chain of command, something usually only seen in the final stages of choosing of sides in revolutions and civil wars.

In short, in our opinion, these messages are telling military service members not to obey their leaders, in essence calling for the overthrow of existing American authority through yet another means in addition to all the other means of opposition and disruption observed in play against our servicemember across multiple domestic and foreign fronts over the past several months.

These actions have emboldened America’s enemies and resulted in death to both American civilians and American military servicemembers (our neighbors who signed up to protect us) here at home and abroad, particularly wrongful because it is well known that the enemy is thick amongst us.   

18 U.S. Code § 2387 - Activities Affecting Armed Forces Generally:

(a) Whoever, with intent to interfere with, impair, or influence the loyalty, morale, or discipline of the military or naval forces of the United States:

(1) advises, counsels, urges, or in any manner causes or attempts to cause insubordination, disloyalty, mutiny, or refusal of duty by any member of the military or naval forces of the United States; or

(2) distributes or attempts to distribute any written or printed matter which advises, counsels, or urges insubordination, disloyalty, mutiny, or refusal of duty by any member of the military or naval forces of the United States—

Shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both, and shall be ineligible for employment by the United States or any department or agency thereof, for the five years next following his conviction.

(b) For the purposes of this section, the term “military or naval forces of the United States” includes the Army of the United States, the Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, Navy Reserve, Marine Corps Reserve, and Coast Guard Reserve of the United States; and, when any merchant vessel is commissioned in the Navy or is in the service of the Army or the Navy, includes the master, officers, and crew of such vessel.

In such disgraceful, seditious and dangerous times where ne’er-do-wells hide and operate from behind many masks of familiar societal positions, and work long hard hours to advance their dark side by sowing discord, dissention and confusion, widespread civilian support is critically important to demonstrating Good Americans’ undying love and support for the morale and wellbeing of their troops so they know we are with them, that our goodwill and tangible support comfort them, and that though they work in the shadow of harm, they are not alone and our support will follow them all the days of their service.
