On Wednesday, The Gateway Pundit posted an article about one of the first things the new Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, has done.
The article reports:
Disgrace General Mark “White Rage” Milley finally got his long-awaited comeuppance.
Fox News exclusively reported Tuesday evening that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth will “immediately” pull retired Gen. Mark Milley’s personal security detail and security clearance.
But the news gets even better: Hegseth will order the new acting Inspector General to conduct a review to ascertain whether evidence exists for Milley to lose a star in retirement due to his deceitful actions “undermining the chain of command” during President Donald Trump’s first term.
Fox News also reports that a second portrait of Milley will be removed inside the Pentagon. This one is from the Army’s Marshall Corridor on the third floor, honoring his service as chief of staff.
As TGP readers know, Milley did several things that arguably meet the definition of treason. First, Milley made two calls to an official in China’s People’s Liberation Army just months before Trump left office, assuring our most formidable adversary that he would give advance warning if the US were ever going to attack the communist nation.
Milley also made headlines for surrendering Afghanistan and arming the Taliban with $85 billion in US military equipment. Before fleeing Afghanistan in a rush in the fall of 2021, Joe Biden armed the Taliban terrorist organization with approximately $80 billion in US weapons.
The White House and Pentagon have never admitted to how many billion dollars worth of weapons they left behind for the Islamist group.
This will probably be reported by the mainstream media as a political move. It is not. Subverting the chain of command in the U.S. military is a serious offense. Calling someone in a country that has an adversarial relationship with America to tell them that you would give them advance warning of any hostilities is treason. President Biden preemptively pardoned the General from any past and future offenses, but I am not sure if that covers the Uniform Code of Military Justice. If it doesn’t, this may not be the end of this story. There is also the matter of the newly appointed Inspector General. As I said, the mainstream media will label this as political, but if America wants a strong military, everyone must be required to follow the same rules.
