EXCERPT:
Generals WIN battle with Donald Trump as 82nd Airborne soldiers are REMOVED from D.C. after chairman of joint chiefs publicly slammed president telling troops to 'uphold the Constitution'
Soldiers with the 82nd Airborne division of the Army were ordered out of Washington, D.C. and back to Fort Bragg, North Carolina on Thursday night
The about 200 active duty troops were kept on standby at bases near the nation's capital and were never called into the city in the midst of riots
The move is a clear reversal after Donald Trump faced backlash for calling in the military to serve as backup should the National Guard need assistance
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley, former Army General John Allen and former Defense Secretary James Mattis all pushed back against Trump
I have heard that there have been meetings, going back a year or more, between top military officials, as well as separate meetings between lower officers and the like, discussing when/how to defy the President. I believe, in fact, it was a FReeper in the military who attended one such meeting and was shocked by it.
There might be something bigger happening with these disagreements about the use of military. I think it’s a distraction.
The pieces to the puzzle —
Lara Logan on Hannity,
Former CIA guy epic rant on Tucker,
Bob Barr press conf this morning,
Brian Cates on fed agency swat deployments, and
the pretend dust-ups between DJT and military characters.
Something big is happening.
