Milley discussed resigning over role in Trump's church photo op

The Pentagon’s top general discussed resigning amid criticism over his participation in President Donald Trump’s controversial photo op at a Washington church, three defense officials familiar with the matter told NBC News.

Gen. Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, apologized over the incident Thursday, saying, "I should not have been there."

The apology came after a tumultuous 10 days for Milley that involved a flash of anger at an Oval Office meeting over the use of active duty troops to quell protests and culminated in him speaking with confidantes about whether he should resign over the staged visit at St. John’s Episcopal Church, the officials said.

The events began on the morning of June 1 following a night of violent protests and looting in Washington that left the historic St. John’s church damaged and national monuments covered in graffiti.

And demand his resignation.

5. I think...

... he should have resigned, along with his apology. I imagine his paycheck is big ant fat, however.

7. As Chairman of the Joint Chiefs he makes

15,583.20 per month. A hair under $187,000 per year. It’s the same as the Vice Chief, and all of the service branch chiefs. Not really all that much for the level of responsibility.

6. I wonder if other Generals didn't speak up against him if he would have apologized.
