A lot of rank and file are going along with some of the politically driven stuff being ordered. That's not cool.

But that's exactly their job. They are supposed to follow the directions of the political leadership - no matter which way the leadership is leading. They aren't supposed to refuse to do something because they disagree with the politics behind the direction.

The only time they are supposed to speak up is when the specific orders are against the law. And that's because their main loyalty is to the constitution, not to the political leadership of the moment.
