In the new book by Carol Leonnig and Philip Rucker, "I Alone Can Fix It", the authors reveal that Chairman of the Joint Chiefs General Mark Milley put plans in place to defeat any attempt by Donald Trump to unlawfully retain power after losing the presidential election.

All military members are taught that lawful orders must be obeyed and unlawful orders must be disobeyed. Gen. Milley was honoring his oath of office and allegiance to the Constitution by preparing to defeat any attempt at an illegal coup.

Here is a discussion of the importance of our government officials being guided by their responsibility to the Constitution, particularly as Trump and many Republicans continue to push The Big Lie on the American people.

1. Good on Milley. His loyalty is to the nation and the Constitution, not to the orange usurper and...

wannabe dictator...unlike the whole coterie of trump sycophants who paraded through the trump reign. Some even stayong throughout and are forever tainted/

I do give a bit of credit for those who saw what was up and got the hell out early, or even got fired early because they pushed back.

2. Real heroes, and it sounds to me like the tide is finally turning against MAGA Fantasy Land /nt

3. Why wasn't he that brave 6 months ago. Did he wait to

see if it succeeded or what?

4. Milley did put roadblocks to every attempt by effingfg and his cronies...

behind their backs. Now I have not heard him deny these allegations publicly yet, and if there won't be any formal denial, it will be because it really happened.

DOJ must stop crying over the prospect of having to prosecute effingfg, and do it for all his crimes, starting with the easily provable individual-1 case, then the ten obvious Obstruction-of-Justice cases documented in the Mueller Report Tome 2 FFS!

It's That Urgent!

5. Right. When he was walking down to the square

in his "camo's" with trump holding up the Bible?

6. at 2:59ish "He was prepared to disobey unlawful orders from Donald Trump."

What makes me think he already had experience?
