Anyone that stands up to facists by “getting out of the way” is a piece of shit.
Stay and make them waste time effort and money getting rid of you, but all these shitbags care more about their retirements than their country. And the bars so low that idiots applaud them as heroes for self preservation.
For the sake of argument let’s say he did that and intentionally slowed things down as much as possible.
Fast forward four years from now. You’re a DOJ prosecutor under the new administration looking to level charges against high ranking military officers who gave the green light to some of Trump’s war crimes.
How could you tell the Army Chief of Staff did what he could to prevent those crimes? He didn’t resign. He didn’t publicly denounce the actions or refuse to pass the orders down the chain of command (if he did he would have been canned). He didn’t give his story to a journalist or recommend to Congress that Trump be impeached. In the eyes of the law what is the difference between him and the General he relays the President’s orders to, or the soldier who carries them out?
This kind of thing is public. If he was fired, then the current Admin could claim he did something else, or obfuscate the matter. This way he can retain some control over the narative without having to deal with the looming cliud of “fired” over his head.
If he had integrity, he wouldn’t step down.

4 years 😂 oh wow, that’s optimistic, 4 years 🤣. It all burns by 2028 unless people pull off a general strike.

What?
The alternative is a court martial…
That’s what you do to “get information out”
For fucks sake I wish people would try to Google shit first if they insist on commenting on shit they know nothing about.
We don’t need more confident idiots running around, if you don’t know something, fucking ask somebody
