Milley took top-secret action to limit Trump's ability to order military strike

[Grumpy]

Nope, courage.

Yep ... just like benedict arnold, quisling et al

[tsuke]

First off there was no actual proof or order that there was going to be a military strike

Second there was an actual order of withdrawal from Afghanistan by Jan 15 and Milley ignored it.

Im not sure how this is not a coup.

Trump Party is already hitting the one-conspiracy-a-day mark and it's not even 2022..........why do they think people take them seriously anymore?

BJ lost the nuclear biscuit for months. What do you have to say to that, shit for brains?

It's the stuff of Harrison Ford thrillers, except it may have happened in real life. Here's a quick guide to an explosive allegation:

What happened?A new memoir by General Hugh Shelton, former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, says that in 2000, an aide to President Clinton once misplaced a crucial series of codes for accessing the country's nuclear arsenal and managed to hide the mistake for "months." Specifically, Shelton claims the aide lost the "biscuit" — a code name for the notecard used to open the black attache case, known as "the football." The suitcase holds "nuclear codes which the US president would use to authorise the launch of nuclear weapons," and Shelton says that losing them is "a big deal—a gargantuan deal." (Watch an ABC report about the controversy)

How could something like that simply get lost?Although the "movies may show the president wearing these codes around his neck, it's pretty standard that they are safeguarded by one of his aides," writes Shelton. "But that aide sticks with him like glue." There is also a military protocol for checking on the codes, but the Clinton aide seemed to talk his (or her) way around those standard inspections.

How was the situation resolved? When it was time to replace the old codes with new ones, the aide finally confessed what happened, and the president was immediately issued a new "biscuit." Whether the aide suffered repercussions for misplacing the codes is not clear.

What would have happened if the codes had fallen into the wrong hands?The world was probably not in imminent danger. Former Homeland Security advisor Fran Townsend tells CNN that, even if an unathorized person got ahold of the codes, "it is very unlikely that they could execute a launch, because the "biscuit" is "only one part of the launch protocol." Actually launching a nuclear strike involves a "multi-layered system" that includes the aforementioned "football."

Milley subverted the chain of command an should be tried for treason and hung!

[cancel2 2022]

IF a General of the US Army is calling the enemy against orders they are quite literally committing treason.

He has some legal recourse if he really believed that the President was "unhinged", not the least of which is to refuse to follow orders. No legal option allows him to call the opposition and tell them plans.

It's horrifying that so many are defending what Milley did, truly insane.
