Quoting: LightShines "adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort" Is there an official .gov list of "enemies"? If not, seems a bit arbitrary. Exactly. Historically, "enemy" has meant a country that we're officially at war with. Milley is guilty of insubordination. That's not the same as treason, even if the superior office he was insubordinate to was the president. The definition of war has changed drastically and I absolutely think there is no question that this is treason. You don't have to be in a kinetic, declared war with a nation for them to be your enemy. China has been subverting us economically, attacking our infrastructure, stealing our commercial and military intellectual property, and openly challenging the United States' dominance on the world stage, engaging in conflicts and/or directly threatening our allies like India, Taiwan and Japan. Explain to me exactly how China is not considered an enemy? -Why are you wearing that stupid man suit? :armouredkitten: |

Quoting: ^TrInItY^ So there's that. You think Trump wanted to nuke China? If trump was planning to nuke china, that story would have leaked a long time ago. His administration leaked like a sieve and even "leaked" about things that didn't actually happen. |

ALL MILITARY MUST TURN THEIR BACKS ON THIS LITTLE MAN...AND THEN PISS ON HIM!! Romans 14:11 It is written: “‘As surely as I live,’ says the Lord, ‘every knee will bow before me; every tongue will acknowledge God. Revelation 20:15 Anyone whose name was not found written in the book of life was thrown into the lake of fire. |

Quoting: Wookiee "Top general was so fearful Trump might spark war that he made secret calls to his Chinese counterpart, new book says" “General Li, you and I have known each other for now five years. If we’re going to attack, I’m going to call you ahead of time. It’s not going to be a surprise.” China is our foe not our friend, and regardless of whether he has known general Li for 5 years or 20 years china is still our enemy and you don't tip off your plans to your enemies. and lets face it, most of ur who have reached Milley's age have had people we have known for longer than 5 years that have lied to us, and stabbed us in the back. but aside from all that , Milley's obligations are to his country not China....to the people of the US, not general Li. I think there should be an inquiry/investigation to determine if the criteria for treason has been met. |

Explain to me exactly how China is not considered an enemy? I'm speaking of a definition that can hold up in court. Every person ever convicted of treason against the United States either literally took up arms against the government or sided with a hostile nation during a time of war. Even the Rosenbergs - who gave nuclear secrets to the Soviet Union - were convicted of espionage, not treason. |

He's not a madman they just make him out to be one. Look at the restraint he showed with Iran. Most peaceful president we've had in ages. |

At least with Biden, you have your wish for a strong and secure nation. Strong borders, peace in the Middle East, a thriving economy, low gas prices, massive unemployment. Biden has made this nation united, unlike that madman Trump. Biden, 80 million votes, most beloved in US history. Right? DOOM is what you make of it. |
