US Air Force officer under investigation after calling for Trump's impeachment
The active-duty officer, Major Jason Watson, denounced Trump and Vance on Wednesday for actions including going to war with Iran without congressional authorization, according to a video
Assessment
An active-duty US Air Force officer has publicly called for the impeachment of the president, directly linking his criticism to the administration's approach toward Iran. The officer's statements, which also denounced the vice president, place a serving military member in a politically charged confrontation with the chain of command. The investigation will test how the military balances service members' free speech rights against the prohibition on partisan political activity.
