In an impassioned and at times furious speech, departing Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Mark Milley defiantly proclaimed that the US military does not swear an oath to a “wannabe dictator.”

It was a bitter and pointed swipe that appeared unmistakably targeted at former President Donald Trump, who has in recent days accused Milley of “treason” and suggested that he should be put to death for his conduct surrounding Trump’s bid in 2021 to remain in office despite losing the presidential election.

“We are unique among the world’s militaries,” Milley said. “We don’t take an oath to a country, we don’t take an oath to a tribe, we don’t take an oath to a religion. We don’t take an oath to a king, or a queen, or a tyrant or a dictator.”

          Are you asking about my ability to amusingly alliterate an alternate articulation of another’s annotation?

          Or rather, are you rendering a repartee, as if to say I’m renowned for my role in rousing reluctantly reticent reproductive rods to rigidity?

      Decades from now, I’ll think of this comment with regret for not heeding your warning, as I breathe my last breaths hiding in some steampunk cave, hunted by stormtrooper drones, starving and without any resources, the last outpost of hope… then the lights dim as the power runs out. “Fucking potato…” final breath… eyes close.

      I hear it was more of a mushroom dick.
