Gen. Milley drafted scathing letter of resignation to Trump after Lafayette Square
Dylan Stableford - 1h ago
After he was seen walking dressed in combat fatigues behind then-President Donald Trump across Lafayette Square after it had been forcibly cleared of Black Lives Matter protesters in June 1, 2020, Gen. Mark Milley, chairman of the Joints Chiefs of Staff, drafted a resignation letter to inform Trump that he intended to step down.
The letter was published by the New Yorker on Monday in an excerpt of an upcoming book by Peter Baker and Susan Glasser, "The Divider: Trump in the White House."
"The events of the last couple weeks have caused me to do deep soul-searching," Milley wrote, "and I can no longer faithfully support and execute your orders as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. It is my belief that you were doing great and irreparable harm to my country. I believe that you have made a concerted effort over time to politicize the United States military. I thought that I could change that. I’ve come to the realization that I cannot, and I need to step aside and let someone else try to do that."

Sad for America!!! He didn't want Trump to start a war with China but seems perfectly content to allow a chicken sh*t, America hating, communist loving, semi-mindless, broken down, old goat to start one. Has he warned his dear friends in China that he will stop any defense? :reaper:

Stepping out in front of a speeding garbage truck would be more appropriate.
After all,the purpose of garbage trucks is to "take out the trash".

OH NOES! Milly drafted a scathing letter, what a twist her panties must have been in. Just one more proven 888cryingkitty that someone talked Trump into taking on.

But didn’t give a shit about blm burning down half the country?
-
So Milley didn't give a @#$% about the riots in DC? Why is this not surprising?

Yes, he decided it was better to cling to power so he can commit Treason by telling the Russians and Chinese he would cancel any attempt to use nuclear weapons. Now he uses his perch to destroy the military be pushing wokeism on all soldiers, sailors and airmen.

Unfortunately, that is God's own truth.

I'm always fascinated by the giant paratrooper (?) medal above his right chest pocket. That parachute nearly covers his shoulder.

Notice that Miss Miley does not have ONE SINGLE VALOR Award.
The closest she comes to it is the 2 CIB awards,which she gave herself for being in a combat threater,not being in actual combat.

Not so much. He never submitted it, AFAIK.

Eisenhower were never in combat at any time during his whole career. He was a staff man,and a good one,which is why he was chosen to basically be the US liaison to our European allies.

JackPosobiec reads General Mark Milley's resignation letter: "This thing reads like an emotional Tumblr letter that was written by a teenage girl."

Any truth to the rumor I am starting that Miley's new position will be as the leader of The Village People?

Well let's see the originals had a Cowboy, Indian, construction guy and Navy guy right? So in keeping up with the times Milly(no I didn't misspell) as the new leader should be the transgender.
