The nation’s top military commanders condemned last week’s acts of “sedition and insurrection” at the U.S. Capitol.
The message from the nation’s highest-ranking military officers comes one week after thousands of President Donald Trump’s supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol, resulting in five deaths, including a Capitol Police officer.

The last people who I would expect to be on the side of American Citizens.
Political animals / Obama flunkies.
And corrupt.
So what the liberal human debris did for 4 years was NOT sedition???
Now why would i click on something from CNBC?
I really don’t like being lied to.
Nation’s “top military commanders” - yeah, those Pentagon flag officers who regularly engage in wife swapping parties, and pedophilia.
Ass kissers. A bit late. Maybe too late to keep their jobs but I'm sure Biden appreciates it.
There was a time when top military leaders did not comment on current events and take sides in politics publicly.
Obama’s generals
The Goldwater-Nichols DOD Reorganization Act of 1986 identifies the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff as the senior ranking member of the Armed Forces. As such, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff is the principal military adviser to the President. He may seek the advice of and consult with the other JCS members and combatant commanders. When he presents his advice, he presents the range of advice and opinions he has received, along with any individual comments of the other JCS members.
Under the DOD Reorganization Act, the Secretaries of the Military Departments assign all forces to combatant commands except those assigned to carry out the mission of the Services, i.e., recruit, organize, supply, equip, train, service, mobilize, demobilize, administer and maintain their respective forces.
The chain of command to these combatant commands runs from the President to the Secretary of Defense directly to the commander of the combatant command. The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff may transmit communications to the commanders of the combatant commands from the President and Secretary of Defense but does not exercise military command over any combatant forces.
Thank the Republicans who didn't seize on the Trump victory to re-establish law and order when they had the chance.
Cowards, all of them.
The danger of a permanent professional military is that you risk having personnel who are loyal to the people paying them, not their republic.
There was a time when a lot of things were different.
Businessmen used promote traditional American values like free speech. Now they happily strip it away.
> those Pentagon flag officers who regularly engage in wife swapping parties
Obviously not all of them engage in it, but this a real thing amongst the senior officer ranks.
They ALL need to be hung for TREASON.
Biden DID NOT win this election.
This WAS a FAKE election to get rid of President Trump.
In addition, Pelosii, Schumer, AOC and Omar along with the rest of those behind this including the entire deep state ARE GUILTY OF TREASON AND CONSPIRING WITH THE CCP.
The REAL INSURRECTION OCCURRED AT 0300 on NOVEMBER 4, 2020!
These bootlicks don’t know that sedition isn’t illegal?
As. It. Should. Be.
Colonel, USAF TJAGCR (Ret)
I wonder who sat them down and had a talk with them.
Go along to get along?
Should fire the joint chiefs post haste.
Scorn the counsel of cowards and traitors.
All who adhere to a fraudulent president commit treason - rank and file soldiers are required to suppress treason by oath, and to refuse to obey the orders of a fraudulent president by the UCMJ.
