Navy SEAL Eddie Gallagher accused the Navy Secretary and a rear admiral of 'meddling' in his case before mocking those who accused him of war crimes.
"This is all about ego and retaliation, this has nothing to do with good order or discipline. They could have taken my trident at any time they wanted. Now they're trying to take it after the president restored my rank," Gallagher said, before threatening to expose top Navy officials of corruption.
Speaking Sunday with Fox News host Pete Hegseth, Gallagher had a chance to thank Trump directly for repeatedly intervening on his behalf. "It's the higher echelon, the upper Navy brass who are the ones who are trying to put their thumb on me," he added. Gallagher commended other SEALs for"going against the grain" and said many are also being targeted by NAVY brass for"calling out these mean girls for lying," referring to other SEALs who testified against him.
