Former Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman Gen. Mark Milley fears he will be court-martialed by former President Donald Trump if he returns to the White House, according to a forthcoming book by Watergate journalist Bob Woodward.
“He is a walking, talking advertisement of what he’s going to try to do,” Milley told Woodward for his book “War,” according to The Guardian. “He’s saying it and it’s not just him, it’s the people around him.”
Woodward cited Trump’s former White House strategist Steve Bannon, currently jailed for contempt of Congress after refusing to cooperate with the Democrats’ unlawful Jan. 6 committee, as saying of Milley: “We’re gonna hold him accountable.”
Woodward went on to write that Milley told him, “He is the most dangerous person ever. I had suspicions when I talked to you about his mental decline and so forth, but now I realize he’s a total fascist. He is now the most dangerous person to this country. A fascist to the core.”
Milley has engaged in a several activities that call into question his allegiance to the United States.
It was revealed Milley was secretly back-channeling with the Chinese before the 2020 election, assuring the CCP military of advanced notice of U.S. military actions.
Trump’s acting Defense Secretary Christopher Miller refuted Milley’s claim his communications with CCP military officials was approved.
Milley also circumvented Trump’s presidential authority in the wake of January 6, convening a secret emergency meeting at the Pentagon demanding his Defense Department subordinates not to obey any order by Trump without his presence.
Milley, a supporter of “critical race theory” who claimed the U.S. military should be on the lookout for “white rage,” also downplayed the violent BLM riots to Trump to persuade him not to invoke the Insurrection Act, claiming the rioters were just using “spray paint.”
The BLM riots resulted in approximately $2 billion in damage in cities across the country.
Ironically, those bombshell revelations were revealed in Woodward’s 2020 book, “Peril.”
Not to mention 90 retired generals and admirals called for Milley and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin to resign immediately following the U.S. military’s disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021 that resulted in the deaths of 13 service members and $85 billion in weaponry and equipment falling into the hands of the Taliban.
Additionally, Milley was given an order by Trump to have 10,000 soldiers or National Guard on January 6th at the Capitol building — an order that he disobeyed.
Trump in 2021 suggested Milley could be court-martialed for accusing him of attempting to orchestrate a coup in the wake of January 6.
If Milley is indeed innocent, then court-martial proceedings will bear that out.
