I suspect what is going on is the foundation for the next election. Don't be surprised if Milley is not the Democommie candidate come 2024. He will be a step up from the lawyer(Avenati) now serving a long term in prison they were hot to trot for not so long ago. Hero generals do well in POTUS elections.
I say this is an effort to position Milley as that hero that saved America from Trump. Truth has nothing to do with the Democommie reality that they will literally say or do anything to retain power.
Milley should be court marshalled, and with the conviction taken out and shot. We lost our sense when we allowed a man named Aldrich Ames to spy for Russia, who betrayed quite a few human assets in Russia that ended up dead, and put the kabosh on over 100 operations in Russia. Ames should have been executed swiftly, but he was sentenced to life in prison. Idiocy. And his wife was only sentenced to five years in prison, and she was in the know.
Milley's mission is to take out Trump. Of course the Democommies will elevate him to hero status and want him to run in 2024. Can you imagine him claiming to have saved America from the insane unstable behavior of Trump. Milley will become the latest Avenati equivalent. The problem will be to keep him out of prison for his treason.
