For me, this turned out to be a complicated situation given his conflicting perspective of responsibilities.

Accountability. As much as I despise Milley, he may have been in the impossible position where he had no options. And Biden is an idiot obviously under the direction of others. So where does this leave us in terms of accountability? Who’s to be ‘hanged’?

Scheller reminds me of Snowden in a small way. I was never sure about Snowden’s intentions — however, I always believed he deserved safe return and the honest opportunity to make his case publicly to Congress. I suppose Scheller deserves similar concessions, but on balance I can’t say his intentions were in the best interest of the Country, and instead were mostly rooted in anger and despair — and that’s of course understandable.

Then he should've resigned, full stop.

Oh please. Spare me.

Wasn't Milley the guy who bragged he wouldn't carry out Trump's orders?

“As much as I despise Milley, he may have been in the impossible position where he had no options.”

He wasn’t in an impossible position. He was in an uncomfortable position. Resignation would have been the honorable course of action along with a public explanation of why he did it.

Difficult? Yes.
Impossible? No.
