He claims that 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.

Speaking as a retired veteran, this makes me incoherent with rage. Civilian control of the military, what is that?

Miley should be hung by the neck until he is fucking dead, and so should Ryan McCarthy, that is fucking treason.

I'll tell you what, if Trump rolls into the WH on 20 Jan 2025 and orders whole sale round ups of his political enemies, I am there for it. As far as I can tell, they have all violated every basic tenet of the US system of government already, so if Trump has them summarily stood up against the wall of the WH and shot, that sounds perfectly fine by me.
