Former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mike Mullen broke his silence Tuesday to say he was 'sickened' by the use of U.S. National Guard forces to push protesters out of Lafayette park to make way for President Trump's photo-op.
'I am deeply worried that as they execute their orders, the members of our military will be co-opted for political purposes,' Mullen warned.
'I have to date been reticent to speak out on issues surrounding President Trump's leadership, but we are at an inflection point, and the events of the past few weeks have made it impossible to remain silent,' Milley wrote in the Atlantic.

Gee, that has never been done before...
Call Mullen back to active duty.
Mullen is, and has always been, a weasley political hack.
And it's the Park Police who are in charge of that property. They have every right to ask people who are illegally assembled without a permit to move, and when they don't move after several orders, then you use the least amount of force to get them to move. This moron knows this. He just likes to hear himself spew BS.
Just another leftist
Poison Ivy Colleges.
The guard were guarding our national monuments.
Some citizens are the enemy. Obama, Hitlery, their entire cabal, the mainstream media, Hollywood, most eduction professors, hollywood. They are all the enemy.
He was weak under Bush. He still is. No wonder Trump had to rebuild out military and oust squishes and fools.
Why is it that most Commanders of the Joint Chiefs of Staff who were Navy is a Democrat soy boy like this moron. I respect our navy, but , please no more navy guys running the joint chiefs.
Yet another ass hat surfaces. They’re swarming like a termite hill that’s been kicked. Honestly with the level of corruption and absolute treasonous activity by people supposedly on the right side of the U.S. Constitution it’s amazing we’ve lasted THIS long.
It’s what the Naval Academy produces. They go in conservative and they come out progressive armchair know it alls. Who go on to greater and more powerful armchairs.
Not ALL, but it’s amazing how many that ARE are in places of power.
Mullen is more proof of how political generals and admirals have become. He clearly is a democrat (i.e. Leftist) admiral.
JoMa
Another American enemy
Mullen’s rhetoric is similar to that used during the US Civil War with regard to Pres. Lincoln. If he exercises executive power he’s a dictator; if he doesn’t he’s ineffectual. Can’t win.
Theres nothing inherently bad about photo ops.
A Bushie who hasn’t the guts for the position he held
Pinafore Admiral
Mike Mullen, tail-end of the ClownBammy human centipede.
All that stuff about clearing the way with tear gas and national guard has been debunked.
