Gregg Jarrett: Gen. Milley's alleged treachery and betrayal merit a court-martial
Fox News ^ | September 15, 2021 | Gregg Jarrett

Posted on 09/15/2021 8:19:27 AM PDT by jazusamo

Revelations about the conduct of Gen. Mark Milley, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, contained in a new book are beyond alarming. If accurate, they constitute court-martial offenses. If proven at trial, they merit conviction and imprisonment.

In a new book titled "Peril," Washington Post associate editor Bob Woodward and national political reporter Robert Costa describe in intimate detail conversations that Milley had with senior Pentagon officials, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and a top general in the Chinese military toward the end of Trump’s presidency.

According to the book, Milley usurped the authority of the president as the elected civilian leader of the United States, sought to defy any order with which he disagreed, and inserted himself into a chain of command where he did not belong in order to arrogate power over the nation’s military operations and nuclear codes. But that’s not all.

The authors contend that Milley secretly informed China that he would warn them in advance of any attack by U.S. military forces. Pentagon sources have admitted that Milley made the calls to the Chinese, as Fox News reported. But they insist that the general assured China that there would be no surprise attacks. It is a distinction with very little difference.

Given the gravity of these accusations and the corresponding national security threat they posed, Milley should be immediately suspended from all military duty —including his position as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff— pending a thorough investigation. If there exists credible evidence to support the claims against him, he must face a court-martial by military tribunal to answer for his perfidy.

Usurping Authority

Milley convened a covert meeting with senior Pentagon officials, including the chain of command for the nation’s nuclear arsenal. Asserting unfettered power that he did not have, the general instructed them that no one was to act on any orders for military strikes —even from President Trump— unless he, Milley, was personally involved and approved. He insisted that everyone in the room verbally commit to effectively place him in charge.

Each and every one of those in the room should be charged too.

If the general solicited others under his command, planned and executed such orders and actions of treason, then this event is elevated to mutiny (actual insurrection).

Re: And CHINA is now RUNNING BAGRAM!! WE BUILT IT FOR BILLIONS!!!

For me, this is a big "tell" that weighs in favor of the authenticity of the Milley treason story......because Milley is the one who allegedly recommended that Bagram AirBase be ditched.

https://nypost.com/2021/08/29/the-fatal-failure-of-gen-mark-a-milley/

Think about it. What better way to "reassure our enemy China" after the alleged secret phone calls than to close down a strategic Air Base like Bagram whose closure is sure to benefit China - especially in terms of shutting down future intelligence gathering capabilities in that region?

Milley colludes with the enemy, and gets away with it. Members of our Armed Forces refuse to get the jab, and get court-martialed.

You and I think alike.
Who leaked it?
Why does it only come out now?
Why would Woodward, a Dem boot-licker, even report this?
Nothing will happen to Milley, so who benefits from this info?

Not mutiny according to Ret General McCaffrey. I've found that he usually reflects the opinions of serving flag oficers.

Barry R McCaffrey @mccaffreyr3 · 13h Gen Milley took a heroic stand to quietly protect the Constitution and prevent a lawless action that could lead to war. History will recognize his integrity and courage fundamentally protected our democracy.

If Bob Woodward lied about it in the book he should also be tried in court. And if none of it is true, why hasn’t Milley filed a lawsuit against Woodward? Hmmmm...

____

Because it’s likely true, and Miley is banking on the left having his back. I am sure they will as feckless republicans were just as anxious to rid of Trump.

Any time you hear the words “our democracy”, you are talking to someone who signs their name with their pronouns.

Miley is an outright traitor and justice demands that he be treated as such. Or just throw him in a hungry lion's cage or hang him till he is gone from this Republic. Time to expose who he workes for and how much other damage he did to President Trump and to America. I will not hold my breath on any of what ought to be done. The communist democrat party ran a coup against the legally elected President Donald J. Trump for four years and stole his second term because of Miley and the traitorous team he has affiliated with. No justice for or from our current govt as far as the public can see.

Gen. Milley is more a politician than a military man.

Isn't that usually the case?

How else to rise thru the ranks?
