THAT WENT ON FOR HOURS, AND YOU BROUGHT IT UP AGAIN YESTERDAY, SO TONY BLINKEN WAS ASKED YESTERDAY WHETHER HE WOULD RESIGN, HE SAID ABSOLUTELY NOT. NOW, PEOPLE ARE SAYING MAYBE THE CHAIRMAN OF THE JOINT CHIEF OF STAFF, GENERAL MARK MILLEY NEEDS TO GO, BECAUSE IT LOOKS LIKE, ACCORDING TO THE NEW BOB WOODWARD BOOK, THAT APPARENTLY, THE JOINT CHIEF CHAIRMAN CALLED UP A COUPLE OF TIMES, ONCE BEFORE THE ELECTION, ONCE AFTER JANUARY 6 AND TALKED TO HIS CHINESE COUNTERPART AND SAID HEY , DON’T WORRY ABOUT US, WE’LL TAKE CARE OF THINGS AND WE’RE NOT GOING TO BOMB YOU. WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF THE FACT THAT GENERAL MILLEY CALLED UP CHINA AND SAID DON’T WORRY ABOUT THIS PRESIDENT. >> IF WE INVESTIGATED IMMEDIATELY TODAY, HE SHOULD BE QUESTIONED UNDER OATH IF NOT WITH A POLYGRAPH TEST WHETHER IT HAPPENED AND IF IT HAPPENED HE SHOULD BE IMMEDIATELY RELIEVED OF HIS DUTIES AND COURT MARTIAL ED. YOU HAVE TO FIND OUT IF IT’S TRUE, THIS IS RUMOR AND PROPAGANDA PERHAPS, BUT IF IT IS TRUE, ABSOLUTELY IMMEDIATELY NEEDS TO BE REMOVED. WE HAVE ELECTIONS. WE CAN’T HAVE GENERALS OVER TURNING ELECTIONS. WE HAVE ALWAYS CRITICIZED IN AUTHORITARIAN REGIMES WHERE THE MILITARY TAKES OVER. THIS IS VERY VERY DANGEROUS, AND IF THIS HAPPENED, MILLEY NEEDS TO BE NEEDLY REMOVED OF HIS COMMAND. AINSLEY: AND IT ALLEGED THAT HE SAID CHINA, IF WE ATTACK YOU, I’LL GIVE YOU A WARNING. I’LL GIVE YOU A HEADS UP, SO THAT YOU CAN BE READY. BRIAN: WHAT A GREAT GENERAL. AINSLEY: CAN WE GET TRANSCRIPTS OF THESE CONVERSATIONS? >> WELL, AND HERE’S THE THING IS IT ACTUALLY MAKES WAR MORE LIKELY. IF YOU’RE CALLING UP OUR ADVERSARIES AND SAYING WE THINK THE PRESIDENT IS SUCH A LOOSE CANON, THAT ACTUALLY PUTS THEM ON RED ALERT AND ACTUALLY IF THERE HAPPENS TO BE, WHICH THERE ARE INSTANCES WHERE THERE ARE FALSE WARNINGS OF ATTACKS AND WE HAVE TO TALK TO EACH OTHER, IF WE HAVE A GENERAL SAYING OUR PRESIDENT IS LIABLE TO UNLEASH NUCLEAR WEAPONS ON YOU, OR ATTACK ON YOU THAT MAKES ANY KIND OF ACCIDENTAL WAR EVEN MORE LIKELY BY HIM BRINGING UP THE GAME. IT’S A TERRIBLE THING, VERY DANGEROUS BUT JUST BY DEFYING THE CHAIN OF COMMAND IT GETS OUTSIDE OF WHAT WE HAVE AS A CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC. BRIAN: HE SAID AFTER THE LAST BOOK CAME OUT, I DON’T REALLY COMMENT ON ANYBODY’S BOOKS THAT’S WHEN HE WAS EVIDENTLY SAID IT’S A MOMENT AND THAT THE PRESIDENT TRUMP AT THE TIME HAS THE CLASSIC AUTHORITARIAN LEADER, HE HAS NOTHING TO LOSE. HE SAID I’M NOT GOING TO COMMENT ON THAT. HE CAN’T NOT COMMENT ON THIS. HE SHOULD BE CALLING A SEPARATE PRESS CONFERENCE TODAY, TO CONFIRM OR DENY IT. GOING ALONG BUSINESS AS USUAL, TO ME, DOES NOT SUFFICE. >> SHOULD BE IMMEDIATELY ORDERED INTO A ROOM FOR AN INTERVIEW, NOT JUST A PRESS INTERVIEW, FOR AN INTERVIEW, WITH POLYGRAPH , WHICH WE DO OFTEN FOR OUR INTELLIGENCE AND HE NEEDS TO BE ASKED, DID YOU CALL THE CHINESE GOVERNMENT IN DEFIANCE TO YOUR COMMAND? DID YOU WARN THEM OR INSINUATE TO THEM THAT THE PRESIDENT MIGHT ATTACK THEM? THAT THE INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS
No, prosecute
Anybody with a legal background know what they could even prosecute for and the statute?
Biden would pardon
All talk nothing ever happens.
I mean, how could we ever prove a thing like this?
He should be in front of a military tribunal.
