    The former US general was critical of Trump in the past, at one point calling him a "fascist".

        At least he’d rather go out like this than be a piece of shit himself. That means if we ever do get control back, he might be willing to resume his service.

      Trump’s officials also removed from the Pentagon a portrait depicting Gen Milley’s as chair of the joint chiefs of staff.

      Hmmm…

      He’s going to piss off a lot of people right quick. Might come back to him in ways he may not enjoy.
