Two days after the January 6 attack on the US Capitol, President Donald Trump's top military adviser, Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Mark Milley, single-handedly took top-secret action to limit Trump from potentially ordering a dangerous military strike or launching nuclear weapons, according to "Peril," a new book by legendary journalist Bob Woodward and veteran Washington Post reporter Robert Costa.
Woodward and Costa write that Milley, deeply shaken by the assault, 'was certain that Trump had gone into a serious mental decline in the aftermath of the election, with Trump now all but manic, screaming at officials and constructing his own alternate reality about endless election conspiracies.'
Milley worried that Trump could 'go rogue,' the authors write.

I highly doubt this as Milley isn’t in the NCA chain.
Milley needs to go.
Maybe the Good General needs directions to Ft. Marcy Park.
If you read the story, you learn very quickly that Woodward took what was probably an afternoon interview with Gen. Jughead and had less than half a book because the topic is played. out. -- note that Woodward subsequently "extended" his book's scope to include the puppet-state installation all the way to Kabul, BUT PROBABLY ONE MINUTE SHORT OF GEN. MILLEY'S COMPLETE BOTCHED WITHDRAWAL FROM AFGHANISTAN THAT COST 12 US SERVICEMEN THEIR VERY EXISTENCE!
LET THE BUTCHER PREEN!
You've clearly never read "The Art of The Deal". Part of it is promoting Peter Principle Perfumed Princes like Milley to where they will make mistakes that you can capitalize from. Sphincter running his yap to Woodward was a General mistake, and you can bet Milley has been on the phone to his lawyer 3 times today, and is about to get called in on the carpet by Dr. J(ek)ill, who knows Milley is talking the same shit about the demented dementia asterisk in the White Hospice right goddamn now...
WHODAT WALKIN TO CHURCH! TRY AND HIDE YOUR FACE YOU TURD POLISHER!
YES! YES HE DID!
lofl
Not really relevant. He was willing to give a potential adversary in a war advance notice of war plans.
If half the story is BS it is possible the other is too.
"Tonight, special guest Mark Milley, former 6-star general and recently
fired-Joint Chiefs of Staff, will live his Love Boat dream as he becomes
Kitty Kelley for a 7-day Bajahaha cruise to diktoffame capital Culiacan, Mexico."
Agreed. Skepticism on all stories is warranted, pending further confirmation.
Why would CNN publish this?
Why? There were reports at the time that Pelosi had met with the Joint Chiefs regarding security in D.C., as well as her stirring the pot about requiring Congress to approve Trump's presidential access to the nuclear launch codes. In light of those facts, this seems very plausible.
It used to be but remember the rules don’t apply to democrats who want to destroy the US.
Yes
Woodward again, with another book deal. I guess the 2024 campaign has officially started.
“Milley, deeply shaken by the assault, ‘was certain that Trump had gone into a serious mental decline in the aftermath of the election….. constructing his own alternate reality about endless election conspiracies.’”
But since we know the election conspiracies actually happened - it was Miley who was constructing alternate realities - and suffering serious mental decline…
…so much so that he committed high treason.
There needs to be an immediate top to bottom denial by the military line staff of this story, and followed by the moral equivalent of a purge of any woke garbage i the military.
Anything less and we need to write off the top military as far as loyalty to the constitution.
Did not see that PTrump said, “If.”
Apologies
Exactly, and another impeachment push.
