Army Suspends Retired Three-Star General for Snarky Reply to Jill Biden on Twitter

 Legal Insurrection

So a three-star who repeatedly risked his life for us gets punished for a comment protected by the First Amendment? If Jill and company are so sensitive, find a safe space with other birthing people


Retired three-star general Gary Volesky suspended after tweet at Jill Biden  
"Retired lieutenant general Gary Volesky, a former spokesman for the Army, responded to a tweet from Biden about the Supreme Court decision overturning Roe v. Wade, in which the First Lady remarked that women’s rights had been “stolen.”
"Biden tweeted that “for nearly 50 years, women have had the right to make our own decisions about our bodies. Today, that right was stolen from us.”
"Volesky responded, “Glad to see you finally know what a woman is.”
"Volesky’s tweet has since been taken down.
"The Army suspended Volesky, who had signed a $92 an hour contract to advise active duty officers as a mentor, while it conducts an investigation, according to USA TODAY. Volesky was formerly in charge of the Army’s 101st Airborne Division.
