Panetta, a private citizen, admits he was in on Milley's subversive phone call with Chinese Communist Party military behind former President Trump's back.
Former Obama administration Defense Secretary Leon Panetta appeared to admit that he was involved with General Mark Milley’s secret phone calls to Communist China behind President Trump’s back.
Panetta claimed to The Hill on Sunday that Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Milley’s first phone call to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) military warning them if they’d attack had the approval of the Pentagon.
“The first phone call was pursuant to the approval of [Defense] Secretary [Mark] Esper, and I think that certainly makes that clear as to what General Milley was doing,” Panetta said.

Panetta went on to justify Milley’s secret phone calls by claiming Trump “was appointing political people to key positions at the Defense Department.”
“And it was coming at a time when there was a tremendous amount of concern about the role of the military,” he said.
In an apparent admission to being involved with Milley’s call, Panetta said he was “concerned” Trump was appointing people he didn’t like and didn’t know what he would do regarding the stolen 2020 presidential election.
“Every secretary of defense signed a letter that indicated that it was very important that the military not be used for political purposes, and we were concerned about what the president might do.”
The Deep State former secretaries of defense penned the letter Panetta referred to warning Trump not to get the military involved with his grievances surrounding the stolen 2020 presidential election.
Former Acting Defense Secretary Chris Miller confirmed he “did not and would not ever authorize” Milley’s phone calls to China.
But Fox News reported that Esper and “15 people,” including private citizens like Panetta, were privy to the secret phone call.
Trump had said last week that if Milley’s phone call to China as described in Bob Woodward’s book “Peril” actually took place, then it amounts to treason.
“So first of all if it is actually true, which is hard to believe, that he would have called China and done these things and was willing to advise them of an attack or in advance of an attack, that’s treason,” Trump told Newsmax.

“I assume he would be tried for TREASON in that he would have been dealing with his Chinese counterpart behind the President’s back and telling China that he would be giving them notification ‘of an attack,’” he added in a statement.

God gosh....what globalist CCP tool was NOT involved with this?
Coup for sure.
Amazing!
In a normal world, people would already be doing the perp walk. Panetta had no reasonable or unreasonable reason for being there. None at all.
All green lighted by the GOP. Esper was doing the bidding of the Never Trumpers in the GOP.
It just keeps getting worse. Treason is turning out to be a mild term for the wrongness perpetrated by these deep-staters.
Only the willfully blind can not now see the fully bipartisan nature of the coup launched against President Trump and the MAGA agenda.
I bet this gets the Republican leadership very, very angry. Expect strong letters of rebuke to follow.
There is a shitpot full of them [the willfully blind].
Wow! Sure glad Obama never did anything like that.
They should all be hanging
“Seven Days in May”
This whole situation continues to floor me. If President Trump would have even had a thought of this, he would have been tried for Treason, thrown in jail and all other forms of punishment. Yet again, we are just setting here letting the Dems get away with it... but WTH can we do? WE are the ones working and going about our lives in the CORRECT, LEGAL WAY..... pisses me off.
The Rats can hold bogus show trials for years, yet the Pubbies don’t have the balls to prosecute real crimes.
That must be what all this “insurrection” stuff is about, pure projection on the Left’s part.
Is that even legal?
As much as I have little use for Milley, if the SECDEF authorized the phone call then it was on the SECDEF who was Milley’s direct superior.
We did what we could do. We elected President Trump and a GOP Congress. How were we to know the GOP would collude with Marxists rather than govern in a Patriotic manner with President Trump? The scale of the betrayal of our American Heritage on display here is truly historic in nature.
If you once thought that the notion that America was ruled by a Praetorian Guard and permanent deep-state bureaucracy to be a conspiracy theory - you shouldn’t have any doubts by now.
