"If this is true GEN Milley must resign,"
"If this is true GEN Milley must resign,"
Whoa. Just stumbled across this article...
"If this is true GEN Milley must resign," Vindman tweeted. "He usurped civilian authority, broke Chain of Command, and violated the sacrosanct principle of civilian control over the military. It’s an extremely dangerous precedent. You can’t simply walk away from that."
"In the new book, authored by Washington Post associate editor Bob Woodward and national political reporter Robert Costa, it is alleged that Milley made two secret phone calls, both to his Chinese counterpart, Gen. Li Zuocheng of the People’s Liberation Army. The book alleges that the phone calls took place prior to the 2020 presidential election on Oct. 30, 2020, and two days after the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, on Jan. 8, 2021.
"According to the book, Milley contacted Zuocheng after he had reviewed intelligence that suggested Chinese officials believed the United States was planning an attack on China amid military exercises in the South China Sea.
"General Li, I want to assure you that the American government is stable and everything is going to be OK," Milley told him during the first call, the book said. "We are not going to attack or conduct any kinetic operations against you."

Thank God for General Milley! Everyone can see Trump’s mentally ill. He actually acted on that observation. Others see it, too but they’re too afraid to acknowledge.

Re: "If this is true GEN Milley must resign,"
In China, Russia, or the Middle East, if somebody pulled this crap, it would be execution, not resignation. And as heinous and treasonous as this is, he probably will get a slap on the wrist and won't even have to resign. Sen. Joe McCarthy was right. In order for this to have happened, Communists had to have been infiltrating the government and the military since World War II, if not before.
It's Commies like these apologists that are only considering slight punishment.

Disagreeing with Communists is NOT an impeachable offense.

Re: "If this is true GEN Milley must resign,"
Wasn't it General Milley who walked with Pres Trump to the Church, after the peaceful protesters had been gassed, for the photo op holding the Bible?
I don't mean to brag, but I just put a puzzle together in 1 day and the box said 2-4 years.
Re: "If this is true GEN Milley must resign,"
I haven't actually read the book. I did watch NBC Nightly with Lester last night. Their report sounded like what's being said in the book is a lot of conjecture. One of things NBC said is that the comments attributed to the Chinese have not been proven. Like I said, I've not read the book.
Re: "If this is true GEN Milley must resign,"
Let's see the transcripts of the calls. I find it somewhat interesting that 24 hours since this story broke, we have yet to see a transcript or hear a statement from any 1 of the 15 alleged witnesses to the calls as to exactly what was said.

He also should be taking responsibility for the errant drone strike too.

General Miley is a hero for being a check and balance against ruthless Trump. We could have been wiped off the map.
They/them, non-binary and proud.
Remember that “2000 Mules” was concocted by a circus of elephants.
The right needs to stop worry about what’s between people’s legs. Instead, they should focus on what’s between their ears.
Audacity sucks.

Going to war with China was just some fantasy in Miller's mind. It was never going to happen.
Re: "If this is true GEN Milley must resign,"
Then, let's make it happen. Insult some Chinese government official. The he either loses face, or goes to war.
