"Gen. Berger said the only way Marines would be deployed, he told her, was if President Trump himself issued that order." "“If you want us to help combat his supporters, I suggest you get him on the phone and tell him that. If he orders me to, I will. Otherwise, I suggest you listen really hard to the words escaping your cracked, poisonous lips; they’re tantamount to treason. We don’t work for you,” Gen. Berger allegedly told her."

Double edged sword at work.
1. Not accurate...Fake News? Language quoted here does not suit an Armed Forces general speaking to a member of congress. Too “over the top”. OTOH,
2. If the general has been informed that recent congressional acts have caused the Constitution to be placed in jeopardy and that he is now operating under the Commander-in-Chief ONLY, then this would be quite appropriate (and actually revealing as he does reference treason).
TBD
Note that above I said “Commander-in-Chief”, not President.
