It surely is.

Many posters say Bashaw deserves back pay and to be restored to full active duty.

He deserves reparations

Yes he does. Pay the man.

Yes, and back in if he was dismissed, if he chooses.

Commenters say soldiers who pushed back on nonsensical COVID requirements, such as mandatory shots and masks, didn’t deserve persecution or prosecution.

This is awesome! We owe these men so much and they should not be penalized for common sense health decisions that could affect the rest of their lives.

— Old School Eddie (@Old_SchoolEddie) May 28, 2025

We need a blanket pardon for anyone persecuted for using common sense during COVID.

Wow every conviction needs to be overturned that was coerced by C 19 policies. Unlawful and unconstitutional imo

Hopefully, Trump will make this happen.

Many commenters still struggle to explain the insanity that ran rampant during COVID.

It is still hard to believe that this happened in the United States. it was a horrible, trying time for all those that rejected the mask, lockdown, and ‘mandatory’ vax. So sorrowful 😞 and fear it could happen again with the wrong President & Cabinet.

Now that’s fascism in its truest form. Get arrested for not wearing a mask

The Covid era and the ppl who fell for it will be looked back on for generations as prime examples of what happens when you trust the narrative or trust the “experts!”

Many stand ready to never let such unconstitutional overreach ever happen again.
