Woodward's new book releasing some damning views of Trump's mental state.

In response, Milley took extraordinary action, and called a secret meeting in his Pentagon office on January 8 to review the process for military action, including launching nuclear weapons. Speaking to senior military officials in charge of the National Military Command Center, the Pentagon's war room, Milley instructed them not to take orders from anyone unless he was involved.

"No matter what you are told, you do the procedure. You do the process. And I'm part of that procedure," Milley told the officers, according to the book. He then went around the room, looked each officer in the eye, and asked them to verbally confirm they understood.

Milley's fear that Trump could do something unpredictable came from experience. Right after Trump lost the election, Milley discovered the President had signed a military order to withdraw all troops from Afghanistan by January 15, 2021, before he left the White House.

When Trump refused to concede in November 2020, Haspel warned Milley, "We are on the way to a right-wing coup. The whole thing is insanity. He is acting out like a six-year-old with a tantrum." Haspel also worried that Trump would try to attack Iran.

"This is a highly dangerous situation. We are going to lash out for his ego?" she asked Milley, according to the book.

LOL totally fake news. We have people on here linking CNN. Only a few people on here (wink wink) will fall for it...

It may be fake news but if it's not, Milley should be fired and placed behind bars until a Court-Martial is convened to try him for treason. However, I suspect that since we have a traitor in the Oval Office, nothing will be done to Milley because whatever happened, happened on Trump's watch and there is no shortage of traitors who betrayed Trump and their country before and after he took the Oath of Office, who are walking around free and have not been charged with crimes.
