Grassley and Banks both spoke Thursday on the floors of the Senate and House respectively to remind Milley he told members of Congress he would review the allegations in the book and get back to them to say if they are true. Despite repeated requests, he has still not said if they are true.
“Milley allegedly placed military hands — his hands — on controls that belonged exclusively to the president. According to Peril, [he] summoned senior operation officers in the military command center to his office,” Grassley said, adding, “He had them take ‘an oath’ not to ‘act’ on the president’s orders without checking with him first,” Grassley said.
He continued:
These brazen words and actions, if accurate, strike at the heart of our democracy — civilian control of the military. They turn this guiding rule upside down and show utter contempt for the commander-in-chief coming from the nation’s top general. They are dangerous and contrary to military code 10 US Code 888.
Grassley said Milley assured him in a letter that his actions were on the “up and up” and promised to read the book and report back to Congress. He said he joined Sens. Rand Paul (R-KY) and Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) in a letter pushing for a straight answer. “Nine months later, he’s still dodging the question with the same lame excuse,” Grassley said.

The problem I see is that the author used “honor” and “General Miley” in the same sentence.

SMDH
MUTINY milley went on national MSM shortly thereafter and outright admitted it.
Just use THAT public documentary national unsolicited confession
and try him under the U.C.M.J. ,
or federal court
for MUTINY ,
sedition
and treason already.
More talk and less walk D.C.
Sheesh.
Sternly Worded Letter
It was a coup. Trump was deposed January 6th. Trump was prevented from going to the Capitol by security forces (according to plotters) he was cut off from mass communications including Facebook, Twitter, and news networks. Two divisions worth of soldiers were flooded into DC on someone else’s orders. Milley said he was coordinating with Pelosi and was in secret contact with our biggest enemy China.
That’s an overthrow of the government.
He’s a damned traitor.
A guy can have all kinds of badges and still be a moral coward.
Looks that way. It also appears they got away with it.
I think insults like this should trigger a Chuck Grassley letter to the president.
So there was a coup...by the left.
I think insults like this should trigger a Chuck Grassley letter to the president.
Geezus, one bumbling idiot past his expiration date to another?
I support your comment😎
If the same happened in South America everyone would see it for what it is.
Great article, Thanks for posting!
Well, the fools who took his oath, rather than arrest him, are just as guilty.
Your Welcome!
we do see it for what it was, T$ won the election in 2020 and everyone capable of thought knows it
Milley’s actions must be formally investigated. There were senior officers present at his meeting to discuss the protocol for releasing nuclear weapons. These officers should be deposed, as well as any others that might have been privy to the China phone call. IMO, Milley’s actions must be examined in court. Anything less poses a threat to civilian control of the military and further encourages using it for political purposes.
