General Mark Milley on Friday defended his calls to his Chinese counterpart during the final months of Donald Trump's presidency as 'perfectly within the duties and responsibilities' of his job as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. 

Milley made his first public comments on revelations he called Gen. Li Zuocheng of the People's Liberation Army to reassure him the U.S. was not going to suddenly attack China. 

The general was blasted by the former president and several conservatives for his conversations and accused of breaking the chain of command.

Update: Milley: Calls to China were ‘perfectly’ within scope of job (AP)  

WNU Editor: The debate is not on the calls that were made to China. The debate and concern is on what General Milley said and did. 

Did he say that he would warn the Chinese if the U.S. was going to attack? 

Did he limit President Trump's nuclear strike powers? 

These are questions that he will have to answer on September 28 when he goes to Congress for a scheduled hearing.

This guy needs to go. If Biden keeps him, it will cost him big in the elections of 2022.

Milley is

- Okay with a BKLM riot around the White House
- Okay with burning the historic St John's Church across from the White House
- Okay with conniving with his Chinese counterpart.
- Okay with bringing 50,000+ plus noncitizen's non-green card holders and non SIVs , while leaving them behind.

Did I miss anything?

You mean when druggie and vegetarian Jacob Chansley strode into capital hill in his loin cloth and got a selfie with same police?

I was soooooo scared mon. Chansley picked up The Speaker's gavel and sat in Miss Nancy's chair, I was afraid he was going to become president. All he had to do was click his heels 3 times while holding the gavel and sitting in The Speaker's Chair and he would have been president.


PS #1 You still have not shown us the maintenance order for the leak at the Fulton Country Count Center.

PS #2 What does "yesL" mean?

PS #3 When are you going to transition like the assistant secretary for health?

Mullet is just a misunderstood patriot.
Please let me explain.

It's not teaspoon, if the left does it

Get it?

It's also not spying on a presidential candidate and subverting the FISA system, if the left does it. They just want to make sure that none of those home grown terrorists we hear so much about vote the wrong way.

And it's not a coup, if the left does it

See how that goes?

And as long as the left media Congress to the help of the real criminal, treasonous scum, nothing will change because 50% of your population are mind controlled

David K. Nelson should paint a picture of a Rubinesque Milley in red lingerie. Maybe with CCP in yellow or black letters printed on the ass of the undies?

"Six months after Washington's death, School of the Art Institute of Chicago student David Nelson painted Mirth & Girth, a full-length portrait depicting Washington wearing women's lingerie. The work was unveiled on May 11, 1988, opening day of SAIC's annual student exhibition.[70] Within hours, City aldermen and members of the Chicago Police Department seized the painting. It was later returned, but with a five-inch (13 cm) gash in the canvas. Nelson, assisted by the ACLU, filed a federal lawsuit against the city, claiming that the painting's confiscation and subsequent damaging violated his First Amendment rights. The complainants eventually split a US$95,000 (1994, US$138,000 in 2008) settlement from the city."

Mirth & Girth

Anyone have Milley's waist measurements? Is his BMI in check?
