Stuart Scheller, a former Lieutenant Colonel in the United States Marine Corps, recently announced that he will be interviewed by Fox News Host Tucker Carlson on Tuesday, January 4th. Scheller gained national attention when he uploaded a video in uniform publicly condemning his chain of command and requesting accountability over the messy Afghan withdrawal earlier this year. 13 US service members were killed during the withdrawal, 11 Marines, 1 Soldier, and 1 Navy Corpsman.

Scheller, who at the time was serving as the commander of the Advanced Infantry Training Battalion (AITB), was quickly relieved of his post and arrested after the video went viral and gained massive attention on social media. Scheller was found guilty of charges brought against him and was reprimanded and ordered to pay a $5,000 fine. As of December 23rd 2021, Scheller was discharged from the Marine Corps.

In a Facebook statement, Scheller thanked over 40,000 Americans who have donated to his foundation, as well his fellow Marines that had served with him over the last 17 years. Scheller also announced a “media blitz” of interviews, beginning with Tucker Carlson in January. He also stated his intention to begin posting every day on December 26th, the date that George Washington famously crossed the Delaware River and attacked the Hessians at the Battle of Trenton.
