There will never be another Democrat questioned or punished for anything they do.

Below is a link to an article about Trump appointing Milley. Just another case of the very poor outcomes that came about by the appointments that Trump made. He obviously is not a very good judge of character or capability or do these appointed persons see the error of his ways and work to maintain some normality and sanity to the executive branch?

For five decades Americans became lazy and allowed the corrupt federal government in the District of Criminals to accrete more and more power. A quick read of the US Constitution reveals that America is first and foremost a federation of independent states. If they want to, the states can (and should) rebuff a great deal of the federal overreach we are seeing. It can easily go to the point of federal agents not being allowed to operate in states or they will be arrested, detained, charged. It just takes governors with guts to implement. It can go so far as individual county sheriffs deputizing a couple thousand local citizens to confront illegal aliens or an invading force, or to take rogue federal agents into custody. Freedom and independence can confront the authoritarianism flowing out of DC right now. Just takes old fashioned American guts.

Decision to prosecute would have to be by the Attorney General. An AG's decision to prosecute is often made on a political basis.

I'd rate the chance of the Biden administration prosecuting this general for treason as mighty slim.

I hate to say this, but James is right. Talking about or threatening to commit a crime is not the same as actually committing the offense. However, conspiracy or insubordination could be in order. Let's not forget that Milley is subject to the Uniformed Code of Military Justice which is much more stringent than civilian law.

Milley is subject first to the UCMJ. His illegal insubordination and treason were committed in uniform while on active duty. He exceeded his authority by a long shot to the point of rebellion against the people. Supreme Court, AG have zero to do with this. It’s strictly a court martial. Junior officers can convene it.

General officers are not immune from courts martial. There have been examples in the past, though its got to be pretty political for that bridge to be crossed. I think this fully qualifies though I wonder if there is enough JAG officers with the cajones to do it.

Agree, but I doubt it will ever happen. Right now the liberal media is calling him a hero for doing it.

He needs put on trial and if guilty, he needs to spend his life in prison or be hung. However, he is on the DemoRats side so, as usual, nothing will happen and he will get away with it.

Wait so the USA was going to attack China? If not what did he do that is punishable? He called his counter part and said hey we are not going to attack you.

If its true that there was no attack, then where is the crime, where even is the moral/ethical failing?

That he felt the need to do it at all is another matter.

Seems like unsubstantiated rumor so far but if Milley told his Asian counterpart in advance of a potential American strike, that's treason. He should be in Leavenworth for even suggesting it.
