Given what I know at the moment from the reporting that's come out, I'm of the opinion that Biden should fire Milley immediately, then throw him the biggest parade we can manage.

A strong opinion held weakly - and I reserve the right to revise (as I likely will need to) as more information comes out. There should be a public and transparent investigation (remember those?) to determine exactly what happened, if only to clear away the current fog of confusion. Milley should be the first person clamoring for those hearings.

It depends on whether Woodward got it right or is sensationalizing once again to sell books. I do agree with those who say if Woodward's account is factual, he should be held accountable for not reporting it through proper channels or making it public. We can't have the military making policy and conducting foreign relations. Tom Pompeo and John Ratcliffe should have been involved but it appears they weren't.

I'm not a fan of Milley. Having said that what exactly did he do wrong? I'm still trying to figure that out. He called China with 18 people on the call including note takers. Gen Keane is sticking up for him and claiming his actions were not out of the range of his job as well as other righties in the intel community. Much ado about nothing. The guy's a bum but you can't end his career over lies.

If the reports in the book are true, Milley has clearly committed treason. I suspect that the reports in the book are inaccurate as they were with the Trump reports so I am holding final judgement until the lying sack is testifying before congress, well at least before the Patriots in

Congress, the Socialists Democrats will go out of their way to twist the facts so that Trump is the evil demagogue that they want him to be.
