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.”

      That attitude is illusionary and will get you nowhere, don’t forget that you and your radical group do not have any significant backing from society and that you WILL be arrested and put on trial if you attempt to take unlawful actions like violating a person’s bodily integrity or destroying property. The world doesn’t revolve around you, there are millions more reasonable people for each single one of violent radicals like yourself.
