A San Diego Navy doctor was removed from command last week after right wing activists began sharing screenshots of her LinkedIn account on X.
Cmdr. Janelle Marra is a Navy physician with 21 years of service. According to her Navy biography, she’s spent most of her career in the San Diego area, splitting time between San Diego Naval Medical Center and Camp Pendleton.
On her LinkedIn account, Marra lists she/her pronouns and her bio says she’s the “Navy deputy medical director for transgender healthcare.”
Libs of Tiktok, an account on X that shares anti-LGBTQ+ conspiracies, tagged Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth when she quote-tweeted a screenshot of the account saying, “Yikes” and asking Hegseth to “look into this.”
That evening, Hegseth in turn quote-tweeted Libs of Tiktok writing, “Pronouns UPDATED: She/Her/Fired.”
A Navy official with knowledge of the matter told KPBS Hegseth ordered Marra be fired. The official, who is not authorized to comment publicly on the case, said the official cause for Marra’s removal was “a loss of trust and confidence in her ability to command,” which is boilerplate rationale used by the Navy to justify all manner of firings.
Marra’s social media use is now under investigation, the official said.
Marra did not respond to a request for comment.

With shit like this going on, right-wingers who pretend it’s the left censoring speech can fuck themselves sideways with a pineapple.
**Schnerious
its time to use a jackfruit or durian instead.
“a loss of trust and confidence in her ability to command,”
Then why are you still using HER fucking pronouns if they’re such a fucking problem??
and her bio says she’s the “Navy deputy medical director for transgender healthcare.”
Oh I think I found the real thing they have an issue with. They just want to remove anyone who gives a single shit about things like quality healthcare.
Totally agree.
I agree with you 100%, but that’s the general boilerplate reason they give for firing anyone in the Navy.
These Nazis are scared of grammar.
And we always thought grammer nazis were bad…
And WE kept telling you we were the good guys. But did you listen? Oh no, you didn’t 😤
Now look where we are at! 🫣😡
They would be if they could read
And they wonder why people get shot in the neck.
Ironically, it was because Chuckie wasn’t fascist enough.
Literal grammar Nazis
It’s grammar vs nazis.
Americans are brutally embarrassing and stupid.
Which county that just had an anti-immigration parade are you in?
Every country has idiots. Not every country elects them power. Twice.
The country has tens of millions of idiots, yes, but please acknowledge that Republicans have only won elections by cheating, for decades.
Whatabout whatabout whatabout whatabout?
That’s the price to pay to be free
free speech? what a joke
“Free speech absolutist” is a codeword for hypocrit radical authoritarian who will persecute outgroups.
it’s absolutely fascinating how the current government does everything they possibly can to promote and reward literal witch hunts.
Lawsuit coming
Is that even possible for a military leader in this situation?
She wasn’t kicked out of the Navy, just removed from that command. As far as suits for wrongful discharge…all the folks kicked out under DADT show that the answer is a later administration can change the status of your discharge but you’ll likely never see any benefits
with so few navy doctors to begin with, her being very accomplished is only going to hurt the navy when they need doctors.

We better find out.
This is a terrible precedent, but I also think that this Medical Doctor will somehow land on her feet.
She’s still probably panicking.
If she’s fired, she could get discharged. If they force a dishonorable discharge on her, that’s a 20 year military pension that just went out the window. I’d be losing my shit if I lost a pension that I was already vested in.
Yep and the psychological impact will be devastating. The military becomes part of your identity, and she’s devoted her life to it.
her resume is impressive, she wont have trouble getting a MD position in the private sector, which pays more anyways.
and now she doesn’t have to work for the regime any longer, win/win
I’d imagine she is still part of the navy, she’s just no longer in that command position and that position was probably removed.
What a perverse world. Fired for being civil.
The left, those who promote inclusivity and acceptance, are accused of hate. How odd.
ZOMG! Not…pronouns! Will the scourge never end?!
When is somebody finally going to retaliate against Libs of TikTok?
Since they have no issue doxxing others I think we should know who they are
We do, it’s Chaya Raichik, this is not particularly hidden information, she spoke at CPAC
My favorite retaliation so far is simply showing how stupid Chaya Raichik actually is. She didn’t think any of this ideology through. An obvious grifter just saying random things she thinks conservatives want to hear. She has no idea what she’s talking about at all
She got hired by the Oklahoma State Department of Education to help monitor for “woke” in schools.
chaiya rachik. is her name, i doubtful, since shes primararily y funded by putin.
she walks the streets of Brooklyn relatively frequently without any issue, somehow. actually, i doubt that, she’s made a ton of money from the grift so she probably has an expensive apartment overlooking Manhattan and probably orders everything she needs to fuel her hatred.
Guess they have plenty of doctors in the Navy. Fuck em, then.
Everyday we inch closer to handmaids tale irl.
