Is Nancy Pelosi pulling General Mark Milley’s strings?: Devine

If you believe the latest Bob Woodward book, the United States has lost civilian control of its military — unless you count Nancy Pelosi, who seems to have been in control of everything since she became speaker in 2019 with the single-minded goal of bringing down Donald Trump.
Everything has gone downhill since, and most dangerously at the Pentagon, where a cohort of woke generals fell under Pelosi’s malign spell.
That’s the only way you can understand how Gen. Mark Milley could have become so deranged that he cast himself as the hero of a “Seven Days in May”-style fever dream in which only he could save the nation from Trump launching nuclear war with China to stay in office.
It’s an insane scenario, a left-wing equivalent of the most far-fetched QAnon conspiracies.
But this is what is claimed in the Woodward book, titled “Peril,” co-authored by Robert Costa. So alarmed was the tightly wound general about what he imagined Trump might do in the weeks before and after last year’s election that he made “secret calls” to his counterpart in China, promising to warn him if the president ordered an attack.
A lot of Republicans are demanding that Milley be tried for treason, after the Washington Post published extracts from “Peril” this week. But a lunatic asylum might be more appropriate.
