#1 Milley treated J6 with all the seriousness and professionalism that we saw in Afghanistan.

#2 "Hey, I don't care if you use Guard, or soldiers, active-duty soldiers, do whatever you have to do. Just make sure it's safe."

I see no ambiguity in that statement.

#3 How and why was this not leaked sooner? Well, I imagine the answer encompasses a genuine conspiracy. Yep, a real, live bunch of criminals framing a former President and jailing his supporters.

#4 I really believe once he's convicted of treason, he should be burned at the stake on the white house lawn.

#5 Wasn't Trump systematically fed misinformation about troop deployments during the last year of his term, effectively removing him from the position of CiC?

Ignoring orders given by a person who was de facto no longer recognized as command authority would have been logically consistent.

#7 "Hey, I don't care if you use Guard, or soldiers, active-duty soldiers, do whatever you have to do. Just make sure it's safe."

Banter isn't something that matches the context, and clearly is cover for disobedience in this case! Trump was expressing his intent, and clearly by including the Guard, addressing the Posse Comitatus aspect of the issue...

Commanders Intent defined:

"Commander's intent is a key principle of the Army's mission command approach to command and control. It's a clear description of the desired end state of an operation, and it's the unifying focus for all subordinate elements.
Here are some components of commander's intent:
Expanded purpose: The greater purpose of the operation and its relation to the entire force
Key tasks: The activities the force must perform to achieve the desired end state
Conditions: The conditions that define the end state
Commander's intent is critical because it:
Helps communicate the vision clearly
Links the mission, concept of operations, and tasks to subordinate units
Allows subordinate commanders to make decisions that fit within the higher commander's intent"

Recall Milley and let the wailing begin.
