General Mark Milley Admits Trump Was Being Managed By Administrative State Group Who Run Government, Mike Pompeo and Mark Meadows Assisted

The Conservative Treehouse ^ | September 28, 2021 | Sundance

[White Lives Matter]

Years of agonizing and frustrating reviews and analysis of the Trump administration activity in real-time are reconciling today. During Senate testimony today before the Armed Services Committee, Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman, General Mark Milley, clarified some very painful issues to accept. President Trump was being heavily managed by operatives of the Senior Executive Service (SES), and his inner circle was willfully participating.

What follows is in no way a defense of Milley, quite the contrary, Milley is a brutally political, manipulative, entitled and arrogant member of the United States armed forces. His delusions of grandiosity represent the worst of our nation and can only be topped by one other, Anthony Fauci.

Earlier today, Milley was attempting to flex his power in the almost identical way we saw former FBI Director James Comey pull the same angle. You might remember, during congressional testimony in March 2017 when Comey was questioned about why he never informed congressional ‘gang-of-eight’ oversight about the preceding eleven month FBI investigating the incoming President, Donald Trump. Director Comey pontificated, obfuscated, dodged carefully, and then deflected responsibility by saying he informed the “national security council” under President Obama.

When General Milley attempted to justify his unilateral contacts with Chinese military officials, he made a similar, and remarkably telling, admission and deflection.

For the January 8th phone call with General Lee of China, Milley stated he informed President Trump’s Chief-of-Staff Mark Meadows and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo. Keep in mind that Kash Patel has publicly stated General Milley did not inform Acting Defense Secretary Chris Miller directly; at least to his knowledge. So, Milley’s secondary point about notifying Christopher Miller in January 2020 needs to be reconciled carefully.

Listen carefully to how Milley is describing those calls.

[The MAGA-Deplorian]

Typical liberal. Never due to his incompetence, always a Republicans fault.
Trump was being controlled by his own people. With drawl of Afghanistan was due to Trumps plan that appears to be the only thing Trump ever did that Biden follows. The guano is think and deep with the STOLEN Biden White House.

[White Lives Matter]

Looks like the only few I can think of that didn’t betray Trump is RatCliffe and Grenell.

[frnewsjunkie]

When Trump is back as President.. I would think he will not repeat the first trial ...
Given the opportunity, I do think he will clean house. He’s learned lot in what they will do.. and he’s taking names..
He is top in ability.. and too smart to let an opportunity pass without going full throttle on the deep state.

[ocrp1982]

“Your Cult of Trump shortsightedness is laughable.” And, your denial of reality betrays your agenda.
Yet, despite all that the man faced in The Swamp what he managed to accomplish is truly EPIC. The lowest Unemployment rate in years with every group making significant gains in employment and in Wage Growth. Reversing decades long trends of Manufacturing leaving the USA. Energy Independence. The USA became a Net Exporter of petroleum. NATO countries increasing significantly their share of the total NATO budget. Reversing a decades-long trend.
The list of all the man accomplished in spite of all the forces arrayed against him is unprecedented. Those accomplishments are well documented. Yet, YOU choose to ignore all of it. Hmm. One must wonder why? What is YOUR Agenda?

[Armscor38]

Despite that, Trump isn’t in the WH now. Partly because, I believe, many of the people in his administration and inner circle didn’t want him to have a 2nd term.

[Tallguy]

Those others that Milley advised were not in the chain of command. The one guy who was — the SecDef— was, and should have been notified.

[thinden]

I suspect that this will continue to be a problem for any conservative president. The solution to the problem is two fold. One, the size of federal government needs to be severely reduced so that it is manageable. There are too many things government shouldn’t be doing and too many things that rightly belong in state and local government.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I had some thoughts along those lines today after watch the senators grilling mikky bu zoom from home.

This “Work From Home” has proven one thing: we don’t need a massive cumbersome gummit bureaucracy nestled in DC.

No need for congress to even leave home state
No need for the agency support staffs to be HQ’d in DC
No need for a dept of education to be HQ in DC

Same with energy, housing, homeland

Decentralize um all

Escape the inflated cost of maintaining the massive gummi presence in DC

Put the jobs & payrolls back in the states where they belong

[ocrp1982]

“Partly because, I believe, many of the people in his administration and inner circle didn’t want him to have a 2nd term.”
Partly? Partly? The Political Class HATES President Trump. A complete political OUTSIDER entered their realm and easily defeated the largest group of Republican Politicians ever assembled in the Primary. He did so while calling out every Republican Politician after Reagan for their Total Incompetence and Stupidity. For their SELLING OUT the American People to Globalist Interests and Destroying our Middle Class. And, involving the USA in neverending meaningless wars resulting in the deaths and maiming of thousands of our young men while not investing in the rbuilding of the US Military that they continually subject to neverending conflict.
All during the Primaries Donald Trump called out our Political Class for their incompetence in foreign affairs and their complicity in underming American Prosperity.

[Armscor38]

Trump would be in the WH now if he, IMHO, had cleaned out his inner circle and administration. People he trusted but who later betrayed him.

[mass55th]

Thanks for that.

[ocrp1982]

“Trump would be in the WH now if he, IMHO, had cleaned out his inner circle and administration. People he trusted but who later betrayed him.”
And, if he had done as you suggest, who would he replace them with? The cabinet-level alone is HUNDREDS of people. And, most of them require Senate (RINO) CONFIRMATION to seat.
Remember, after President Trump was betrayed by that fool Sessions, the Republican Controlled Senate told President Trump that if he dared to fire their former colleague they would refuse to confirm any nominee he made to any position going forward. President Trump was President. Not King. Not Dictator.

[hardspunned]

That’s pathetic! He did a great job with the VA. Lasting effect, good job. Now, ten months out, other than at the VA, name ONE accomplishment still standing, one. I’m not taking the dead man walking McConnell Ryan “tax cut” either. Don’t even try that joke. One, just one.

[No.6]

Yep. Even before that he was being told which nominees would just not pass Turtle and which swamp creatures were a-ok.

[justkillingtime]

another idiotic post from our FR idiot...go to bed loser

[ocrp1982]

I get it. You hate President Trump. But, your arguments are nonsensical. Name me a RINO you champion that after leaving the office of the President and subsequent to that the Dems control the Whitehouse, the House, and the Senate whose policies the dems disagree with would remain in place should they wish to eliminate them?
What policy that any Conservative put in place is immune to attack and elimination by Leftist Dems after the Conservative is out of office?
Exactly what mechanism in gov’t is there that protects those policies from Dem attack that President Trump failed to employ? I so look forward to your answer regarding these exact details with your in depth policy answers.

[Retain Mike]

You are welcome.

The picture of Comey reminded me of this letter I wrote when he was a news item.

Subject: Comey is a Dirty Cop

Consider the source before giving credence to Comey’s statement attacking the GOP Congress and Trump about any infraction of law. What credibility he had disappeared when he spoke about Hilary Clinton’s emails. He began by detailing the many ways in which her actions violated Sections (d), (e), (f) of the federal penal code Title 18. He then declared that no prosecutor would ever consider bringing her to trial.

Comey committed an egregious violation of his FBI Director authority by stating Clinton should not be prosecuted. An attorney general or district attorney possesses the authority to decide what if any crime should be pursued. Whether federal, state, or local, police actions are limited to investigation and arrest, as can be confirmed by reading any of their mission statements. That is why we have grand juries and judges deciding upon charges by issuing warrants.

Comey lied by saying the lack of intent to reveal national secrets through Clinton’s prohibited computer system absolved her from prosecution. The applicable statute criminalizes her gross negligence leaving no room for determination of intent. As such the law shares common ancestry with laws from traffic violations to negligent homicides.

Comey is a dirty cop and anything he says, or writes should be ignored.

[lone star annie]

Peter Navarro was one of the most loyal.

[PIF]

In the hearing yesterday, there was so much cloth used to cover various fat asses that one could open a drapery shop.

Modern Milley, along with the other two characters, claimed they advised the Joek to keep 2500- 3000 troops in Afghan, but when asked what did they say when they met with Joek, declined to comment no confidentiality. The Joek says their advise on troop numbers was mixed but never said keep 2500, but pressed on what they actually said, declined on confidentiality.

So in other words, they could have actually said anything to Joek, but Joek cannot tell us what he was told. So the whole thing is an exercise in futility, looking good on the Hill, being properly political, and the rest be dammed.

[Georgia Girl 2]

Milley is a lying POS traitor. Why would anybody believe what he says? The very thought of Trump being “managed” is laughable.
