Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Mark Milley on Friday retired with an impassioned speech that took a swipe at former President Trump, proclaiming that the U.S. military does not swear an oath to a “wannabe dictator.”
Trump last week accused Milley of “treason” in going behind his back to reassure his Chinese counterpart near the end of his term, suggesting that the Army general should be put to death.
“We are unique among the world’s militaries. We don’t take an oath to a country. We don’t take an oath to a tribe. We don’t take an oath to a religion. We don’t take an oath to a king, or a queen, or to a tyrant or a dictator,” Milley said at a ceremony in Virginia.

If Mark Milley can't see that President Sniffer has done more to help China and the Cartels than he's done to help Americans then he's an idiot and should resign.

We need to pound Miley as today’s Benedict Arnold. He needs to be humiliated as a warning to other Staff Officers. Trump needs to have him recalled to active duty and Court Martialed.

Like Obozo with his pen and phone? Or Biden opening our borders and letting millions in?! The General needs to STFU and go away. I'm sure he has a very cushy position lined up with one o the major defense contractors.

A dictator who wants to shrink government and expand personal freedom.
Trump is terrible at being dictator.

That this ignorant, anti-American, woke, incompetent, fat, slobbery POS could have ever risen in the American military high enough to be even recommended for the JCS is an indication of how much trouble our military is in.
FYI, here is the oath he once ostensibly took:
"I Mark Milley, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God."
For what it is worth.
Because his canoodling with upper party officials of the Chinese Communist Party, one of the most evil governments ever to have existed (without the knowledge of our OWN government) is antithetical to that oath. As far as I am concerned, it is TREASON, and he should have been convicted and paid that penalty in full.

But, General, you did take an oath to the Constitution which designates the President as Commander in Chief with you, as a subordinate, duty bound to follow the chain of command. But you, in your own self important way, chose to independently contact the Chineese Communists without authorization from above. That, sir, is treason!

Maybe we can convince Turkish military men to give Milley the Lawrence of Arabia treatment.
