This is why Liberalism is the greatest threat to the USA. As predicted, the Left is defending Milley. Saying his choices were "common sense" to "protect us all" from the POTUS.
Think about that. Our media is complicit in supporting treason and a traitor of the greatest magnitude, colluding with our greatest foreign enemy behind the back and against the wishes of the elected President of the United States.
My grandparents, several of whom fought to defend this nation, are rolling over in their graves.
Not only is there no question he is a traitor and committed treason...but we now have the media and Liberals defending his crimes.
We are done.

Media pundits
continued to praise Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley after a new book
claimed he made two phone calls to Chinese officials during
Donald Trump's presidency in fear that the commander in chief would attack.
MSNBC's Mike Barnicle said Wednesday the general's phone calls, if true, would have been "common sense" in a Trump administration he said was marked by four years of "imbalance." It was a common refrain for the press to suggest Trump was unhinged and unstable throughout his White House term.
On CNN, analyst Ret. Gen. Wesley Clark argued Milley was "within his rights" to make the calls and he would have been "derelict" in his duty if he hadn't picked up the phone.
Several others, like CNN's Mark Hertling, said Milley was justifiably trying to put "guardrails" in place between Trump and foreign policy disaster.
"Gen. Milley took some very prudent measures," Hertling, a retired U.S. Army officer, said.
"What he did was ensure the guardrails were in place," he later added. "So I give him high marks for this based on what’s described in the book."
"Late Show" host Stephen Colbert defended Milley during his monologue Tuesday night, while "Morning Joe" host Joe Scarborough ripped Milley's critics as "so stupid."
"Are you so stupid, I just got to ask, are you so stupid, are you so ignorant of how things work that you don’t know that from time to time generals talk to generals?" Scarborough asked.
Contributing writer to The Atlantic Tom Nichols said the alleged call to China was a "good thing" and decried calls for Milley to resign, while Washington Post blogger Jennifer Rubin said Milley's "revelation" about Trump
raised important questions about the president's authority to order nuclear strikes unilaterally.
