  1. @meidastouch.com host @[email protected] reports on the #JointChiefsofStaff starting to PUBLICLY dissent AGAINST Trump and #PeteHegseth for their PURGE of military leaders in the middle of Trump’s unlawful war in #Iran. youtu.be/_P_Q1BIjkkg?...

    🚨Joint Chiefs STRIKES BACK at ...

  2. RE: fairdinkum.one/@John/116173240

    And yet: General #DanCaine, chairman of the #JointChiefsofStaff, expressed his concerns at a #WhiteHouse meeting with #Trump & his top aides, cautioning that any major operation against #Iran will face challenges because the U.S. munitions stockpile has been significantly depleted by #Washington’s ongoing defence of #Israel & support for #Ukraine. Caine’s remarks at the White House meeting have not been previously reported.

  3. Meanwhile, a second person familiar with the situation said that the Chair of the #JointChiefsOfStaff, Gen #DanCaine, was also at freaking #MarALago Saturday.

    The #Pentagon didn’t answer questions about US Defense Secretary Pete #Hegseth’s whereabouts for the strike [probably drunk somewhere on a lost weekend].

  4. Trump's unhinged military plans get exposed by #WhiteHouse insiders to be a nightmare for his own #JointChiefsofStaff and has been mostly urged on by #StephenMiller as #Greenland fires back against Trump. @[email protected] and @[email protected] break it down. youtu.be/0-xhhXlUAR8?...

  5. How should a #military commander respond if they determine they have received an #unlawful order?

    Request to retire — & refrain from resigning in protest, which could be seen as a political act, or picking a fight to get fired.

    That was the previously unreported guidance that Brig. Gen. Eric Widmar, the top lawyer for the #JointChiefsOfStaff, gave to the country’s top general, Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen #DanCaine, in November….

  6. Allvin is the fifth #US #military service chief to depart since #Trump took office. In January, Trump directed the firing of #CoastGuard Commandant Adm. #LindaFagan, & in February, he fired Gen. #CQBrown as chair of the #JointChiefsOfStaff & removed Chief of #Navy Operations Adm. #LisaFranchetti. In April, he fired #CyberCommand chief Gen. #TimothyHaugh.

  7. Seriously, #USA friends. Where are your former leaders? The #Clintons? #Bush? #Obama? #Biden? Fired #JointChiefsofStaff? NONE speaking out (other than #Millie, better late than never) calling out #Trump lies, and in fact his either tacit, more likely explicit #Russian asset status? #Fascism

  8. #DrunkRapist #PeteHegseth readies *actions* against #Trump “foe” Retired General & former chairman of the #JointChiefsOfStaff #MarkMilley
    
The retired general, a frequent target of #Trump, will lose his #security detail & face an #InspectorGeneral [apparently there’s one left] investigation, said a senior #defense official.

  9. The remark urging people to “go after” a top elected ofcl in NY, by a fmr president whose invective has become a familiar backdrop of #American life, was part of a #pattern of increasingly sharp language from #Trump.

    Days earlier, he told hundreds of #Republican activists in #California that #shoplifters should be #shot. Not long before that, he insinuated that the #military general he personally appointed as chairman of the #JointChiefsOfStaff should be #executed for #treason.

  10. Gen #MarkMilley, whose 4yr tenure as chair of the #JointChiefsOfStaff ends w/his #retirement this mo, will exit…as one of the most consequential & polarizing* military chiefs in recent memory, leading #America’s armed forces through a fraught period that included the precarious final mos of #Trump’s presidency,…withdrawal from Afghanistan, & Washington’s high-stakes standoff w/Moscow.

    (*Only bc he had to manage the most polarizing & mad pres in US history)

  13. “As investigators piece together what happened…,they have been asking witnesses if #Trump showed #ClassifiedDocuments, including maps, to political donors….
    
“Investigators have also asked witnesses if Trump showed a particular interest in material relating to Gen. #MarkMilley, the chairman of the #JointChiefsOfStaff…. Milley…drew scorn & criticism from Trump & his supporters after a series of revelations in books about Milley’s efforts to rein in Trump toward the end of his term….”
