The nation's top military official has apologized for taking part in President Donald Trump's walk from the White House to St. John's Church for what eventually turned into a controversial photo op after authorities had used pepper balls and smoke canisters to disperse largely peaceful protesters.

"I should not have been there," said Gen. Mark Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, in a prerecorded video commencement address to National Defense University. "My presence in that moment and in that environment created a perception of the military involved in domestic politics."

Gen. Milley should immediately resign, or be fired, for letting the Marines and the Marine Corps Band be used in "domestic politics" in that disgraceful presentation by Joe Biden in Philadelphia last night.

Milley has much to apologize for and can never be forgiven for his overt acts.

Milley-Vanilli wants to rename the Corps to "The Marine Staffel".

Those “protesters” were far far less “peaceful” than the 1/6 crowd

A dangerous fraud.

The genocide of boxes and boxes and boxes of Krispy Kreme donuts, for one.

So where should you have been when Marines were getting killed and we were abandoning gazillions in equipment to the Taliban?

Meanwhile, just last night, two marines graced Biden's hellscape speech.

"Largely" peaceful protesters. What about the few who were not peaceful? Didn't they need a good pepper balling?

Milley is a plain vanilla TRAITOR. He is turning the defenders of our nation into mincing trannies, into theatrical backdrops, into guinea pigs for testing dangerous vaccines, into yea-sayers parroting the decrepit CIC (who is merely parroting what his puppeteers get him to say, between naps). Milley is a clear and present danger to us all and must be removed from his position of power or any upright position.

Colluding with Nancy Pelosi and then calling China to tell them he wouldn’t let Trump nuke them....he should be in prison. And they did this to a guy who refused to start a war. Something about government work that makes you lose touch decency and reality.

[[largely peaceful protesters]]

Yep, to the left, bribing down iconic churches and attacking cops and rioting are all “mostly peaceful” whereas walking peacefully through a Capitol building after being escorted in by police and security is akin to insurrection or pearl harbor attack.

Amazing that the left are getting away with their asinine nonsense and false accusations and ridiculously absurd claims
