LinkedIn and the case before the International Criminal Court: VADM Ann Rondeau, et. al
This case before the International Criminal Court and the U.S. Merit System Protection Board concerns gross misconduct at the Pentagon's National Defense University, including the hiring and promotion of those guilty of crimes against humanity. What follows is the written testimony, ideas and recollections of a dozen ranking officials who served in U.S. Southern Command, the Naval Special Warfare Command, the FBI, the Defense Intelligence Agency and National Defense University, among other national security positions.
This Pleading before the Merit System Protection Board and the International Criminal Court, largely although not exclusively, provides additional focus on the one made before the MSPB on May 24, 2021 regarding Defense Department policy on extremism, but also goes directly to the information filed on April 14, 2019 before Judge Monique Binswanger on the “Extraordinary Release of New and Material Evidence: Federal False Statements (18 U.S. Code § 1001).”

Among the many federal false statements they have made before the Court, Department of Defense Opposing Counsel claimed in their fallacious arguments that an already decorated national security and human rights whistleblower had promoted “damaging conspiratorial theories of wrongdoing by the agency.”
This despite the overwhelming and incontrovertible evidence that he had already provided to the Department of Defense Office of Inspector General, the Intelligence Community Office of Inspector General, and to the MSPB, about gross violations of federal and international law.
What follows below is the written testimony, ideas and recollections of a dozen ranking federal officials who served, among other places, in U.S. Southern Command, the Naval Special Warfare Command, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, as a DEA/CIA liaison, at the Defense Intelligence Agency, and at the National Defense University. Their opinions and revelations were just some of the many sparked in LinkedIn (as well as in Academia.edu and Twitter) by continuing whistleblower disclosures about the case before both the MSPB and the ICC.
Who I am ...
Being a whistleblower is often not appreciated at the time the whistle is blown.
Martin Edwin Andersen is one example. Andersen has been a whistleblower for much of his life, repeatedly putting his career in jeopardy. Andersen and his fellow whistleblowers are aligned with the Government Accountability Project, which bills itself as the “nation’s leading whistleblower protection and advocacy organization.” He often uses the hashtag #WeAreNotSnowden to highlight the difference between his efforts to expose government mismanagement through legal channels, and the actions of Edward Snowden, who some government officials accuse of putting American lives at risk by leaking national security data.
“Every time one of us whistleblowers who plays by rules and tells truth to power is shot down,” Andersen tells The Progressive, “the bureaucratic swamp is essentially giving aid and comfort to Snowden” and others who choose to leak indiscriminately outside normal channels.
