These people helped Jan 6th...


quote:

The Daily Mail reported:

Donald Trump’s authority as commander-in-chief was ignored by senior military leadership on January 6, 2021, claims the chief legal advisor for D.C. National Guard on that day.





quote:

Mark Milley, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff at the time, and then-Army Secretary Ryan McCarthy, were plotting to disobey any orders handed down by Trump because they ‘unreasonably’ assumed the then-president was going to break the law and try to use the D.C. National Guard (DCNG) to stop certification of the 2020 presidential election results.




quote:

Matthews says that senior military leadership essentially stripped the president of his authority as commander-in-chief by preemptively planning to go against orders because they didn’t like the optics of uniformed soldiers at the Capitol.

Why should we re-elect someone who was so powerless so weak and was so easily “tricked” or “duped” by the swamp who he claimed to want to drain but instead added to it. Make this make sense?!

The whole top brass and their underlings need to be purged.


We need to be finding men who are not political military powers.



To me it sounds like a soft coup

"Optics" don't make for unlawful orders. These people should be court-martialed.

Agreed, but they can be easily retired. Then put in law abiding brass who launches an investigation and then try them.


They can not retain their position.... day 1

The intel agencies and Pentagon do what they want. The President barely even matters at this point. It does make me wonder, though, who really makes the call on tough decisions.

Yea, your guy is doing amazing in the polls.

81 million votes = most unpopular president in the history of the United States.

If a foreign country is involved (China?), then yes.

If not, then the alleged behavior certainly seems seditious.

Why did literally all of Trumps appointees subvert him? Why did he say he was going to drain the swamp yet he appointed people like Milley, Wray, Bolton etc. why did Trump hand the federal government over to imbeciles like Fauci and Birx? Trump was a weak worthless cuck with false bravado who was run over at every turn by the Liberals yet you idiots want to re-elect him
