Joint Chiefs Chairman Army Gen. Mark Milley made moves behind President Trump’s back while he was in office that should have him executed for treason. According to Peril by Bob Woodward and Robert Costa, the ‘woke’ general told his Chinese counterpart that if Trump ever decide to attack, he would give them advance warning.
The book also revealed that Milley had two back-channel phone calls with China’s top general to reassure him that the U.S. would not attack, even promising to give him a heads up if it did.
According to a write-up by the Washington Post, Milley — four days before the 2020 presidential election — assured his Chinese counterpart, Gen. Li Zuocheng of the People’s Liberation Army, that the U.S. would not strike.

The book said Milley’s first call was prompted by intelligence that suggested the Chinese believed the U.S. was preparing to attack.
“General Li, I want to assure you that the American government is stable and everything is going to be okay,” Milley allegedly said. “We are not going to attack or conduct any kinetic operations against you.”
Milley even pledged to alert Li in the event of a U.S. attack.
“General Li, you and I have known each other for now five years. If we’re going to attack, I’m going to call you ahead of time. It’s not going to be a surprise,” he said, according to the book.
In his second call on January 8, 2021, Milley promised Li, “We are 100 percent steady. Everything’s fine. But democracy can be sloppy sometimes.” Milley did not tell Trump about the call, according to the book.
Also according to Peril, Milley was worried that after the January 6 Capitol breach, Trump could “go rogue” so he called a secret meeting on January 8 with senior military leaders telling them not to take any orders unless they went through him.
During that meeting, Milley instructed senior military officials in charge of the National Military Command Center to not take orders from anyone unless he was involved, according to a write-up of the book by CNN.
“No matter what you are told, you do the procedure. You do the process. And I’m part of that procedure,” Milley told them.
“Milley considered it an oath,” Woodward and Costa wrote.
It seems a hard sell that this general actually believed Trump was going to launch nuclear weapons at China. The more likely scenario is that Milley thought Trump might “go rogue” by invoking the insurrection act – something that any treasonous pig would be worried about. Milley used this haggard TDS talking point that Trump might launch nukes to set up listening posts to know every move Trump made.

“If the story of “Dumbass” General Mark Milley…is true, then I assume he would be tried for TREASON in that he would have been dealing with his Chinese counterpart behind the President’s back and telling China that he would be giving them notification “of an attack.” pic.twitter.com/bLCfFhNPgA
