GOP’s Gosar suggests Milley should be ‘hung’ for Jan. 6 response

[+OverSword]

Quote

 

Rep. Paul Gosar (R-Ariz.) suggested Sunday that Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Gen. Mark Milley should be “hung” for his response to the Jan. 6, 2021, riots at the Capitol.

In a newsletter Sunday, Gosar offered his thoughts on the testimony from former Capitol Police Chief Steven Sund to the House Administration Committee last week. Gosar said that Sund, who was the chief at the time of the attacks, had requested national guard assistance but claimed it was “delayed” by Milley.

“But even after approval was given, General Milley, the homosexual-promoting-BLM-activist Chairman of the military joint chiefs, delayed,” Gosar wrote. “Of course, we now know that the deviant Milley was coordinating with Nancy Pelosi to hurt President Trump, and treasonously working behind Trump’s back.”

“In a better society, quislings like the strange sodomy-promoting General Milley would be hung,” he added, also calling Milley a “traitor.”

 Wow!!  What is going on with our government?  It seems populated by maniacs.

Hmm.  The article mentions Trump's "Truth".  Pehaps Gosar was just capitalizing on the hype to show loyalty?

[Wistman]

If referring to an execution of a person, the term is 'hanged', not 'hung'.   Gosart is as ignorant as he is bloodthirsty.

Or perhaps he's seen Miley in the shower?

Are conservatives on UM going to act like I'm being melodramatic for calling this guy homophobic or can we finally accept that there is a homophobic element amongst Republicans ?

Sodomy, deviant, homosexual...

Hell, seems like the primary reason he wants to hang him is because he is gay...

Though I've been assured by PA that saying "hang Mike Pence" isn't saying that you want to kill someone so I suppose this doesn't count either...

Lol. Problem is, with these repressed people like Gosar, is that they can be quite dangerous when unable to properly deal with who they are. One gets all sorts of unhinged behavior, which was ably summarized by spartan, above.

I can agree that saying someone ought to be hung for a crime or saying that there was a time when someone would be shot as a traitor for certain actions is not a death threat.  It's theatrics mainly.  But I am in agreement with you and was outraged because of the anti-homosexual language.  There is no place for our politicians to use that kind of language these days I feel.  He is definitely playing to a zealot religious right when making ignorant statements like that.

Back in the good old days when America was great perhaps? 

I wonder if that is part of make America great again? 

A bit of a stretch perhaps, but it seems Trump and politicians like him will talk the line so that their supporters can hear it whatever way they want to hear it.

I think in order for it to be a death threat you actually have to threaten to kill someone and it has to be credible.  I couldn't count the amount of times my brothers and I have threatened to kill each other.

I never suggested legal charges. No. It wouldn't meet the legal charges of a death threat.

Why did General Milly delay the request?

Still, I am glad Paul was never my dentist.

Probably for the same reason Nancy Pelosi lied about Capitol Police Chief Steven Sund calling her 3 times.

I agree.  I also think that posting lies that are OBVIOUS lies, like reference to a "rapist" when Trump has not been convicted of such a crime is just as disgusting, but it happens all the time, including on this site.  Liars gonna lie where Orange Man Bad is concerned.  It's actually a psychosis at this point.

He has already proven he's willing to operate behind the back of his sworn commander-in-chief to reassure a rival, potential enemy power that he'd disobey a direct order against China.  He should have been fired and stripped of all rank and compensation, including pensions.

What request?  The Commander-in-Chief is the President, not Nancy Pelosi.  President Trump made no request according to depositions made  by Trumps Sec. of Defense, Milley's superior.  Even the Vice President is not as high in the chain of command as the Secretary of Defense though Pence apparently did request military  aid.  Trump was silent.  

You might live to regret it if you put Nancy Pelosi in charge of the military.

But, U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan noted Monday, the jury did find Trump liable for sexually abusing Carroll during an encounter in the dressing room of a New York City department store in the mid-1990s, and the details of that finding show that her having maintained that Trump raped her is "substantially true."

You're right, Trump's behavior is disgusting. But keep supporting him, chief. It just shows everyone else who you are, in an OBVIOUS way.

Cultists going to blindly support the Orange Abuser. It is, as you say, a psychosis at this point.

Yep, the same will happen if Biden stumbles into the oval office and says "Today is a good day to die.   Unless they drop all charges against Hunter and me,  lets start a nuclear war with China and Russia". A single individual cannot press the button and put the US in WWIII  without concurrence from his cabinet and staff.

Milley did what other chiefs have done before him and maybe prevented a Chinese pre-emptive nuclear attack.  You used to be concerned about starting a nuclear war with Russia.  Does an attack by Chine not cause th esame concern?

[Tatetopa]

And of course, Trump is not a rapist, he was only convicted of being a finger man.  So Orange Man not so bad after all.

A psychosis that affects about half the USA.  You can see how trump getting elected again would be more trouble than he is worth?

Liable, not convicted of anything.

Liability means "to be responsible for, especially by law"

So someone liable for rape legally can be called a rapist- as seen by the second court ruling linked by Doc Socks.
 

Edit to add:  Though technically Donald Trump was also convicted "having been declared guilty of a criminal offense by the verdict of a jury or the decision of a judge" because a jury saw enough evidence to hold him liable and judge against him.

So we should kneel before a corrupt media complex?  IMO that is the choice.  Trump is a nasty, narcissistic piece of work but those who've been trained like a bunch of seals to clap and bark at all the right cues still have no right to try to disenfranchise their neighbors who disagree with them.  Whatever happened to the sanctity of an American's electoral right to CHOOSE?  

Let's not kid ourselves about this.  It's too important.  Regardless of the opinions of the Left about his suitability, the demonstrable reality is that the polls are supporting him, especially against the burn-out puppet in the Oval Office as well as the policies he is rubber-stamping for God knows who that are pulling his strings from the shadows.  Those who loathe everything about the Orange Man have every right to do so and every right to vote their conscience on the issue but SO DO their neighbors who disagree with them.

IMO, the Dems will only keep Biden on the ticket if they have a guarantee of winning with him.  The problem they face is that it will be much more difficult to raise enough anger or fear against Trump again when they've done such a horrific job with the country for 4 years.  If we see the same kinds of electoral shenanigans next year, the other half that don't support our slide in true Socialism will become a force to be reckoned with by disengaging from DC and looking for the options to be free from DC altogether.  Anyone who thinks that will be impossible, is just kidding themselves.  We are at the brink of an abyss and our "trusted" media sources are pushing us over the edge.

If Trump is a danger to the nation then Americans should be allowed to vote against him.  No entity in DC has the right to keep him from the ballot and anyone who supports removing him is actually the threat to our Republic.
