Those kids at Abbey Gate didn’t have a well paid BOD “job” on the line, either.

i think China told Biden to get out and leave the equipment there as a sweetener to the Taliban for their mining deal.

Generals, testifying under oath to Congress, are required to reveal the truth as they know it.

Contrast this to Milley talking with Woodward for an anti-Trump book, and telling the Chicoms he would give them advance warning of a surprise attack, which are both actionable under UCMJ. (Or, at least the should be actionable)

“Milley argued that resigning in protest would have been a “political act,” and that the president has no obligation to agree with his military advice. “It would be an incredible act of political defiance for a commissioned officer to just resign because my advice is not taken,” Milley said. “This country doesn’t want generals figuring out what orders we are going to accept and do or not. That’s not our job.””

Too bad he didn’t feel that way with Trump. He opposed and undermined him to the point of having backchannels to the murderous communist Chinese government.

"Milley declined to give a direct answer, saying only that 'I'm not going to characterize a statement of the president of the United States.'”

No, you'll just commit treason against a Republican President, and the country you took an oath to protect.

biden is the dangerous one! The entire hypocritical left wailed in panic over Trump and claimed he was going to start a war. They moved the ridiculously stupid “doomsday clock” to 11.59 PM.

We are in more danger under the bucket of sheep spit than under Trump.

Lots of comments regarding General Miller’s recommendations and if they were presented to Biden. From the tone of the senators it sounded like they did not think his recommendations were given

"Victory has 100 fathers and defeat is an orphan." JFK

And certain Generals are bastards.

Gee. Think this revelation might indicate at least some of the military is on the side of the American people, and not the fraudulent "Administration"?

I call my plan the emBASEee strategee. From my home page:

I have been advocating for several years a policy I call ‘embaseees’. Embassy + AirBase —> EmBASEeees. We go into a terrorist country, clear out their taliban equivalent, then withdraw to very large Embassies, perhaps 3 of them. Have them big enough to encompass a military airbase where we can use it for decades on end to conduct anti-terrorism operations. As long as the ‘host’ country aint killing Americans then we let them have self-sovereignty. Kind of like how we operated in the Phillipines for decades. We could even have an intermediate zone that we patrol but it would be autonomous. Let them have their taste of freedom. A referendum every 10 years to see how large the boundaries of the intermediate autonomous zone should be.

McKenzie’s remarks directly contradict Biden’s comments in an Aug. 19 interview with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos, in which he said that “no one” that he “can recall” advised him to keep a force of about 2,500 troops in Afghanistan.

He's probably telling the truth, since "no one" that he "can recall" ever told him his Depends needed changing.

As far as I’m concerned, I would not impeach Joe Biden. I would have the Marines or Secret Service arrest him for Treason and Court Marshall. Them when he is convicted with a death sentence for the murder of USA thirteen military personnel and the murder of innocent civilians and innocent children....I would commute his sentence to life in prison in Alaska, Giving him just enough food and medicine to keep that bastard alive!!! Why?

Folks this evil “Satan” Biden, among us has no heart, no compassion, no decent humanity within his evil bones!!! He has a hateful temper, thinks he is a legend in his own warped mind...which he is not now and never will be!!! Joe Biden is the lowest form of human being possible...that is why thousands, if not millions of Americans are shouting out loud everywhere “F—K You...Biden”!!! Actually Biden deserves every word they utter!!! This guy Biden worships, only himself, and his Navy Rejected, Drug Addict, Woman Abuser, Criminal, son, Hunter Biden. What a pair!!! Wake up America....the Biden faults are coming to you and your loved ones!!!
