    Ain't the way it works. There is a mechanism for the President, the 25th Amendment. Use it if needed.

    There is no excuse for the military to circumvent civilian control. None.

      What? You're not serious.

      Oh, wait. It's Ax...

      So, telling "lies" about the election is worse than usurping power by an unelected military leader? Really?

      As posted earlier, when you've lost Vindmann.

      Oh, wait. It's Ax..

      One could easily make a case that doddering and incoherent Biden has no business running the country. But that’s up to the people, not Milley or any other general or bureaucrat. Because running a shadow government is far closer to the definition of a “coup” than anything else that’s happened over the past five years.

      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

            Unseemly? Perhaps.

            Illegal? Certainly not.

            Powell was one of several former top military officials to criticize the photo op. "We have a Constitution. And we have to follow that Constitution. And the President has drifted away from it," Powell told CNN.

            This is funny in the context of what Milley allegedly did, isn't it?

            "We're the ones with the guns," he said. So much for civilian control of the military.

                  “His calls with the Chinese and others in October and January were in keeping with these duties and responsibilities conveying reassurance in order to maintain strategic stability,” said the spokesman, Col. Dave Butler.

                  All of Milley’s calls were coordinated with the rest of the Department of Defense and other relevant agencies, Butler added.

                  Milley did not tell Trump about the calls.
                  …
                  When a reporter asked Biden on Wednesday whether Milley did “the right thing,” Biden replied: “I have great confidence in General Milley.”

                  Between a “World War 3” launched by a despotic head-of-state who has lost the election to a “rogue general” preventing it, I will take the “rogue general.”

                  If the newly elected head-of-state wants said general to stay, he stays. Otherwise he goes.

                  Some of the shit you say is so incredibly stupid that it makes me think you're trying to be some sort of "performance artist". I think that because to believe that you actually believe most of the shit you say you'd have to be one brain cell away from being a fresh turd. Then you come along and make such an astoundingly stupid statement and I realize it's not an act.

                    I think saying ridiculous shit just to watch the reaction is Ax's preferred form of entertainment. It's close to sociopathic sometimes.

                    Please love yourself.

                      I think once in a great while that is in fact his motivation. But quite often I think he actually believes the stupid shit he says.
