When they're talking about the recruitment shortfalls there's a lot of veterans, like myself, who got out in the past 20 years and when you're asked about your service you give an honest answer. No one wants to join when they fail to take care of you, treat you with dignity and they need to look in the mirror and make cultural changes from the top down. They have no one to blame but themselves.
Former President Trump used Veterans to get votes and create a false perception. I'm still amazed how many US Vets still vote for that liar. He despises military people while stealing their valor. How is a 5 times draft dodger revered by real heros? It's beyond me. Republicans want to cut benefits - simple fact.

You're not the only military in the world swearing an oath not to a king or queen or a tyrant or a ddictator. Most military in democratic countries don't do that, but swear on their country, their constitution, or the people. It's mind boggling that even such high ranked person being highly educated do have such distorted or non-existent knowledge of other countries, even their direct allies.

We take an oath speech made a few days after Esper was fired. The version given at his retirement/ change of command added "We don't take an oath to a wannabe dictator."
Milley Betrayed the president. Writing for the Supreme Court in the 1936 United States v. Curtiss-Wright Export Corp. decision,5 Justice George Sutherland reasoned that the the President has the sole power to negotiate treaties Milley had become a woke joke and had NO AUTHORITY to speak unilaterally to the Chinese WITHOUT THE DIRECTION OF THE PRESIDENT and NO OTHER BRANCH OF GOVERNMENT COULD CEDE HIM THAT AUTHORITY. Either you respect the office of the president or you don't Milley and others like him do not.
God Bless General Milley. God only knows what kind of worse damage Trump could have done had it not been for General Milley. He basically saved our country being in the capacity he was in. General Milley is one of the United States biggest assets. You are beyond priceless, sir‼️Thank you & God Bless you & your family.🙏♥️🙏♥️🙏♥️
You mean the 5000 Taliban that Trump and Pompeo freed from prison..? And still better we finally got out of that endless 20 year war, where 2402 US American troops were lost.
I'm English so a supposed neutral here. However I was so impressed by General Milley in this interview. He comes across as a very honest and humble person in that interview. I hope his successor is as good as he appears to be.
General Milley is typical of every American Chief of the Joint Chiefs of Staff all the way back to the origin of the U.S. JCS in 1942. Thank God for these military and naval leaders the United States has had! (As for the U.S. getting into WWII in the manner in which we did, the U.S. was led by the greatest of all our Presidents, in my opinion. Fleet Admiral William D. Leahy, General of the Army George C. Marshall, Fleet Admiral Ernest J. King, and General of the Army Air Forces Henry H. Arnold, were all truly top-notch military professionals. These men and President Franklin D. Roosevelt served not only the United States, but all of humanity extremely well in World War II. We had a Grand Alliance with you British, the former Soviet Union and China among other allies.) Andrew "Andy" McKane IV, 9 October 2023, Maunaloa, Hawaii.
Gen Mark. We all have done things in this lifetime we wished never happened. Your parents raised you well. Be proud. I am very smitten with you. Wendy Carrey👑🇨🇦
General Milly is a real Gentleman and Im from the Pacific and I totally admire this honourable man , N I love Democracy, Thankyou for your service, God bless you ❤
It would have been nice if 4 presidents could have provided some guidance on what the actual objective was. At first it was justified. But after the first 2 years it was a disaster.
Some type of response was justified assuming Bush didnt fail to act on good intelligence just to give Americans the appetite for war and raise his own (and family's) net worth via the military industrial complex. That entire war was a farce.
Afghanistan was a cluster f*ck as they really didn't want us there...and we thought they would think of us as liberators...some great documentaries on it. We got out after 20 years...which is an accomplishment despite 13 being lost in the pullout. That 13 is the last to be added to the 2402 US Troops lost...and what would have been countless more after Trump released the 5000 Taliban prisoners in the wild, who were gaining strength.
We went from taking out terrorist to Nation building . Trying to move a 7th century culture into the 21st. We learned nothing from UK and Soviet Union failures in the past. Only Alexander the Great and Genghis Kahn has anything approaching success and we certainly were not going to adopt their methods. We should have just reestablished the monarchy and bribed the warlords and tribal leaders to support it/fight the Talban while limiting our involvement to Special Ops and airpower. But no, we had to go an attempt to nation build.
If I was going to join the military, I’d probably join as a nurse (when I get my RN). What would hold me back from joining is we’re not in any large scale wars right now, so it doesn’t feel apparent to me that I need to join, especially when i have more control over pay, location, and hours at home. I believe when the time requires it, the military will have no issue recruiting.
Not a recruiter but don’t look over the benefits you get for life even after serving one contract - that’s better than what any normal job would pay/put out
I agree on most, but most Vets I'v talked with think theur health Benifits are not that hood after retirement or adter they get hurt in the field!!! So many of Vets have PTSD and NOT getting the proper help anx most who have PTSD have commited suicide!!! So health benefits need a big overhaul within those benefits and not Biden or Obama didn't help abd neither will Harris!!! The economy has also had many Vets not liking the Aministration we have since Trump left. Miller just hates Trump because he found out some things about Milley that could be Treason and I had heard Milley didnt really want to retire and wanted to die in service. He makes iver 200k per year and his gets a very high Pension and Im sure his SS will be higher than and average Vet too. I dint mind people who deseve monryfir serving our country, but to leave Vets & US citizens behind to be killed, to ne that doesn't make him a decent General to keep around any more since 1980 @jayhub24

What do you mean by one sided? A military’s spirit and character must be apolitical. Everywhere in the world. Their training includes that they must not be emotional, not partisan, and they must obey without discussion, their chief, whoever that night be, whichever political side he is, side as long as that chief is not doing things against his own country. If your career is in the military, that means a certain number of years, and presidents go from right to left to center to right/left again, under the time you are in the military, you have to remain neutral, and follow the only existing and stable thing: the constitution.
@@loantran-thanh7795 That was a long rant following that question. What I meant is that this guy seems to use both his head and his heart and not just follow his predecessors actions blindly. He has a mind of his own which he weighs things back and forth with. He is examining himself and his actions it seems. That’s good,.. 👍
I wish they asked Milley what the political/strategic end state is for Ukraine? What does victory look like? The destruction of Russia or just repelling its forces from Ukrainian borders? What's the end game?
lol its the same end game as during the cold war - deplete their resources with as little of ours as possible - so they have less to bother us with it definitely is not the destruction or collapse of russia [last thing we want is to destabilize the command structure - they got way too many nukes lol - we need someone in charge who understands nuclear deterrence] - it's a slow bleed --- a forever war or a humiliating withdrawal
The end will involve the signing of a treaty once the Western powers recognize the inevitable and stop supplying Ukraine with weapons. The destruction of Russia would involve a nuclear exchange that would render victory pointless.
@@RobertCaley-h5i I took the oath in 2009 and know damn well that I'm duty-bound to leave some things unsaid to non-citizens and civilians like the intentions of the Commander-in-Chief.

I remember going through NCO school in the Army, and during a lesson on the military's role in the political process, our instructor told us that the US Military is strictly apolitical and impartial to the political process, nonetheless; he also said the US military is the steward of the Constitution and democracy. Although we swore allegiance to the President, our true mandate was to protect and defend the US Constitution and its democratic values. When we asked him to clarify what he meant by "the US Military is the steward of the Constitution and democracy," he paused, thought for a second, and then said, "Let me put it this way: although the US Military has no say in the political process of the country, when we raised our right hand, we swore to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, both foreign and domestic, and as leaders, we have to be ready to do what we have to, to uphold that oath"... we all looked at each other knowing fully well what he meant. I'm glad this train of thought goes all the way to the top Military leadership as well.
the us military's like or not is not "to protect the constitution". If you you read your history you will conclude that through all the atrocities and crimes against humanity it committed ,the military's job is imperialism and the protection of the interests of its corporate masters domestically and abroad

I do same thing with a licensed fiduciary I vetted and hired. My MO: 1. Invest in misunderstood business models, 2. Invest in undervalued assets 3. Invest in underappreciated growth. These are all explored under Loren’s business model.

FYI, Ms. O'Donnell, Trump officially left office on January 6, 2021 when the House voted to accept the election results. May I add a Thank God for that. And General Milley is a true patriot!
Gen. Mark Milley wanted to say SO MUCH about the Trump, but his professionalism, character, wisdom and respect for his country didn't allowed him to do so. Wow, what a gentlemen and a TRUE patriot.

Because a war between two or more great powers doesn't have to be hot, but will be equally destructive. Also the term "World War" conjures images of an apocalyptic nature and he doesn't want to use inciting language. But of course if two major powers do go to war, the world will be dragged in regardless.

Milley is a peice of work. We hire people like him to watch for threats against the nation. Now he says that four years ago he worked for a fascist down the hall and never said a word.
Funding Ukraine to destroy Russia is a pretty inexpesive option if you consider what it would take for NATO to do the job. No NATO or US soldiers on the line.
There's no reason to "destroy russia" and no way to do it even if it wasn't an insane goal without destroying ourselves.... even if we could painlessly topple the russian leadership, what would follow is hunger chaos and missing nukes in the hands of terrorists for the next 200 years. this rooting for the ruin of russia because they don't want western missles on their border or to have a belligerent country in control of their warm water port is patently insane and has no happy ending. it's a testament to the effectiveness of our own propaganda that they got the western left to discard peace as a value and root for military profits even if it breaks ecerything.... people act like the elites are going to let them in their bunkers when this whole bonkers game blows up in their face.... they aren't... they'll hide with your money and the rest of us will weep
I love this guy, no sarcasm! In today's political climate, the simple act of being such an adamantly institutional officer, to the degree of even refusing to respond to calls for his very execution, is something so powerful, dignified, and worthy of deep respect, in my opinion, that I believe it should be unequivocally cherished!

he also said just leaving all the military equipment behind would be cheaper.
@@rng1k it was. I'm not saying it was a mistake leaving it behind but it was cheaper than bringing home.
We take an oath speech made a few days after Esper was fired. The version given at his retirement/ change of command added "We don't take an oath to a wannabe dictator."
Milley Betrayed the president. Writing for the Supreme Court in the 1936 United States v. Curtiss-Wright Export Corp. decision,5 Justice George Sutherland reasoned that the the President has the sole power to negotiate treaties Milley had become a woke joke and had NO AUTHORITY to speak unilaterally to the Chinese WITHOUT THE DIRECTION OF THE PRESIDENT and NO OTHER BRANCH OF GOVERNMENT COULD CEDE HIM THAT AUTHORITY. Either you respect the office of the president or you don't Milley and others like him do not.

AMEN!!”
Milley was serving this country while Trump was at the playboy mansion
And Epstein's island
Yeah, Milley lost his way at the end and became a politician, not a general. He started believing the Democrat agenda.
@@jimstraba5772 General Milley was concerned about an erratic president pushing the U.S. into war.
Milley was acting as a Spy for China under trump. Hes a traitor.
@ Jimmy You are FOS! Thanks for the laughs!!
thank you for your continued service General Milley
We don't thank people who ruin institutions.
God Bless General Milley. God only knows what kind of worse damage Trump could have done had it not been for General Milley. He basically saved our country being in the capacity he was in. General Milley is one of the United States biggest assets. You are beyond priceless, sir‼️Thank you & God Bless you & your family.🙏♥️🙏♥️🙏♥️
Feel so bad for the allies he left behind with the Taliban they tortured so many of our allies.
My Constitution says the president is Commander-in-Chief. Not sure about yours… 🙄
Yeah, I feel bad for 13 servicemembers I got blown up and all the millions of military hardware that China Biden left back in Afghanistan
Biden did that
Comrade don't pretend to be American.
You mean the 5000 Taliban that Trump and Pompeo freed from prison..? And still better we finally got out of that endless 20 year war, where 2402 US American troops were lost.
Thank you Gen Mark Milley!
Spoken with leadership, educated, intelligence and definitely military manners. Thank you sir for your service.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE !!!
A true patriot. Refreshing
This is what patriotism looks like. Love your country, serve your country.

If you want to thank a veteran, be an American worth fighting for.
Yeah express your gratitude for not being one of the guys who were blown up during the incompetent withdrawal from Afghanistan.
@@LordHumoungus lord fungus amongus.
Your gratitude means nothing.
I'm English so a supposed neutral here.
However I was so impressed by General Milley in this interview. He comes across as a very honest and humble person in that interview. I hope his successor is as good as he appears to be.
General Milley is typical of every American Chief of the Joint Chiefs of Staff all the way back to the origin of the U.S. JCS in 1942. Thank God for these military and naval leaders the United States has had! (As for the U.S. getting into WWII in the manner in which we did, the U.S. was led by the greatest of all our Presidents, in my opinion. Fleet Admiral William D. Leahy, General of the Army George C. Marshall, Fleet Admiral Ernest J. King, and General of the Army Air Forces Henry H. Arnold, were all truly top-notch military professionals. These men and President Franklin D. Roosevelt served not only the United States, but all of humanity extremely well in World War II. We had a Grand Alliance with you British, the former Soviet Union and China among other allies.) Andrew "Andy" McKane IV, 9 October 2023, Maunaloa, Hawaii.
Gen Mark. We all have done things in this lifetime we wished never happened. Your parents raised you well. Be proud. I am very smitten with you. Wendy Carrey👑🇨🇦
General Milly is a real Gentleman and Im from the Pacific and I totally admire this honourable man , N I love Democracy, Thankyou for your service, God bless you ❤
Assuming The responsibility for low trust and recruitment of the military is a lesson for many politicians across the world.
The words "clown shoes" come to mind.
That's pretty weird
It would have been nice if 4 presidents could have provided some guidance on what the actual objective was. At first it was justified. But after the first 2 years it was a disaster.
Some type of response was justified assuming Bush didnt fail to act on good intelligence just to give Americans the appetite for war and raise his own (and family's) net worth via the military industrial complex. That entire war was a farce.
Afghanistan was a cluster f*ck as they really didn't want us there...and we thought they would think of us as liberators...some great documentaries on it. We got out after 20 years...which is an accomplishment despite 13 being lost in the pullout. That 13 is the last to be added to the 2402 US Troops lost...and what would have been countless more after Trump released the 5000 Taliban prisoners in the wild, who were gaining strength.
We went from taking out terrorist to Nation building . Trying to move a 7th century culture into the 21st. We learned nothing from UK and Soviet Union failures in the past. Only Alexander the Great and Genghis Kahn has anything approaching success and we certainly were not going to adopt their methods. We should have just reestablished the monarchy and bribed the warlords and tribal leaders to support it/fight the Talban while limiting our involvement to Special Ops and airpower. But no, we had to go an attempt to nation build.
@@carlanderson7618- thanks for taking the time to write that. It saved me the effort and the anxiety it would’ve created.

All week for this? He's an awful general.
Great interview of a great American.
Military Business! Truest words ever spoken 😊😊😊
yes, this is essential business of heirs of Ost-Indian company, first corporation.
Thank you for your service.
If I was going to join the military, I’d probably join as a nurse (when I get my RN). What would hold me back from joining is we’re not in any large scale wars right now, so it doesn’t feel apparent to me that I need to join, especially when i have more control over pay, location, and hours at home. I believe when the time requires it, the military will have no issue recruiting.
Not a recruiter but don’t look over the benefits you get for life even after serving one contract - that’s better than what any normal job would pay/put out
I agree on most, but most Vets I'v talked with think theur health Benifits are not that hood after retirement or adter they get hurt in the field!!! So many of Vets have PTSD and NOT getting the proper help anx most who have PTSD have commited suicide!!! So health benefits need a big overhaul within those benefits and not Biden or Obama didn't help abd neither will Harris!!! The economy has also had many Vets not liking the Aministration we have since Trump left. Miller just hates Trump because he found out some things about Milley that could be Treason and I had heard Milley didnt really want to retire and wanted to die in service. He makes iver 200k per year and his gets a very high Pension and Im sure his SS will be higher than and average Vet too. I dint mind people who deseve monryfir serving our country, but to leave Vets & US citizens behind to be killed, to ne that doesn't make him a decent General to keep around any more since 1980 @jayhub24
Great man and soldier! Thank You for your service and your your upright, soldierly behavior
I agree.
Gen Milley, thank you!
Thank you for your service sir

😂 we have what??! Hardly. But everyone loves a kiss *** here, apparently.
A real patriot. Thank you for your service. Can we convince you to un-retire?
Did someone just say Gen Milley for President😊
I know nothing about his replacement. That does concern me. This is no time to replace a proven military leader with an unknown.
he retired because he was acting as a spy for China under trump.
I have never liked a general before, as they tend to be one sided. But this man is both thoughtful and commanding. Nice to see some balance 👍
What do you mean by one sided? A military’s spirit and character must be apolitical. Everywhere in the world. Their training includes that they must not be emotional, not partisan, and they must obey without discussion, their chief, whoever that night be, whichever political side he is, side as long as that chief is not doing things against his own country.
If your career is in the military, that means a certain number of years, and presidents go from right to left to center to right/left again, under the time you are in the military, you have to remain neutral, and follow the only existing and stable thing: the constitution.
@@loantran-thanh7795 That was a long rant following that question.
What I meant is that this guy seems to use both his head and his heart and not just follow his predecessors actions blindly. He has a mind of his own which he weighs things back and forth with. He is examining himself and his actions it seems. That’s good,.. 👍
Gen. Milley is also a scholar, an all round man, imo.
He’s an unparalleled failure.
@@Justusson Insecure to put down the contributions of others as a “rant”
Mark, a father to us all. Protected us from that wanna be tyrant. You are a man amongst men. I wish you were president.
General Milley is a true American Hero. I wish he would run for President. I feel he truly understands the global situation and has what it takes.
I wish they asked Milley what the political/strategic end state is for Ukraine? What does victory look like? The destruction of Russia or just repelling its forces from Ukrainian borders? What's the end game?
lol its the same end game as during the cold war - deplete their resources with as little of ours as possible - so they have less to bother us with
it definitely is not the destruction or collapse of russia [last thing we want is to destabilize the command structure - they got way too many nukes lol - we need someone in charge who understands nuclear deterrence] - it's a slow bleed --- a forever war or a humiliating withdrawal
Ukraine has already lost. The whole world is seeing how weak the US really is
@@JeffyinthehillsThis is peak copium right here 😂
The end will involve the signing of a treaty once the Western powers recognize the inevitable and stop supplying Ukraine with weapons. The destruction of Russia would involve a nuclear exchange that would render victory pointless.
A "Forever War" is their only goal. Peace was never an option for clowns like Milley.
Thank you for your service
An amazing man and the epitome of being in service. He is a true Patriot and America is better for it.
Thank you General Milley, a true American Patriot! 🤗

Vietnam was the same deal.
That's why we shouldn't try to occupy a nation that didn't actually start a war with us. Similar to how Russia should get out of Ukraine.
Decent person. That is a leader, never to say I made a mistake this is what leaders are made of, doing better the second time, in some ways he reminds me of Colin Powell

#BalanceIsReal!!!
If I had more officers like this I would've stayed in.
I remember going through NCO school in the Army, and during a lesson on the military's role in the political process, our instructor told us that the US Military is strictly apolitical and impartial to the political process, nonetheless; he also said the US military is the steward of the Constitution and democracy. Although we swore allegiance to the President, our true mandate was to protect and defend the US Constitution and its democratic values. When we asked him to clarify what he meant by "the US Military is the steward of the Constitution and democracy," he paused, thought for a second, and then said, "Let me put it this way: although the US Military has no say in the political process of the country, when we raised our right hand, we swore to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, both foreign and domestic, and as leaders, we have to be ready to do what we have to, to uphold that oath"... we all looked at each other knowing fully well what he meant. I'm glad this train of thought goes all the way to the top Military leadership as well.
the us military's like or not is not "to protect the constitution". If you you read your history you will conclude that through all the atrocities and crimes against humanity it committed ,the military's job is imperialism and the protection of the interests of its corporate masters domestically and abroad
We took an oath...
Huge fan of General Milley.

I read about a certain Schommer, U.S Army. the likes of Josh Scandel. He got a Bronze Star Medal for exceptionally distinguished service during Operation Iraqi Freedom. His Iraq experience helps him now in dealing with the grind of daily volatility in tough stock markets - and those big gulp moments.
That is a very interesting concept for a vet but it comes with great risk.
I do same thing with a licensed fiduciary I vetted and hired. My MO: 1. Invest in misunderstood business models, 2. Invest in undervalued assets 3. Invest in underappreciated growth. These are all explored under Loren’s business model.
I would love to approach the market in such an unconventional manner but how does the reward outweigh the risk, I say you might get lucky on just one of the methods.
I turned over $1m in the past 4 years despite the rough turns, guess how much capital was invested? 150k or less. I am fortunate to work with Loren as I was part of the Gamestop Saga under her guidance.
How can I reach out to this Loren you use? Can I get a number, I and my sig. other are looking for something like this to help us plan better.
RESPECT
Admitting errors is a sign of wisdom; I would gladly follow a general with such moral integrity.
These guys always get a high salaried position as a kickback for keeping the war machine going, wait and see.
This man is one of many true American patriots that I am honored to have served under, God bless them and America.
🤡. And yet if you were still serving and we went 2 war with China he would have been the good little spy he is and warn them killing not only you but millions of other service members.

Good work, General.
I noticed in the interview, Norah O'Donnell called Biden, Mr. Biden, and consistently called Trump, President Trump...??? FYI, Ms. O'Donnell, Trump officially left office on January 6, 2021 when the House voted to accept the election results. May I add a Thank God for that. And General Milley is a true patriot!
Biden has earned the respectful title of “Mister”. Trump, on the other hand, deserves a disgraceful title associated with politicians.
I salute you Gen. Miley, you are truly a man in uniform dedicated to your country🙏👏
HE'S A TRAITOR!
You can do anything as long as you hate Trump.
You mean dedicated to the Chinese he came out as a millionaire.

On the conterary, donald's got my distain and disrespect. Donald is by far, the worst president, the USA have ever had and there is no end to his lunatic statements. Vote blue.
Why did Gen. Miley keep murmuring "power war" instead of referring to world war? Did i hear right (said it twice).
A war fought for control of the world is certainly a "power war" is it not?
Because a war between two or more great powers doesn't have to be hot, but will be equally destructive. Also the term "World War" conjures images of an apocalyptic nature and he doesn't want to use inciting language. But of course if two major powers do go to war, the world will be dragged in regardless.
Why did u comment? For clarification? Or reaction?
@@jamesless5394, presume clarification. If you have nothing to lose in an interaction then always presume "good faith".

Milley is a peice of work. We hire people like him to watch for threats against the nation. Now he says that four years ago he worked for a fascist down the hall and never said a word.
Funding Ukraine to destroy Russia is a pretty inexpesive option if you consider what it would take for NATO to do the job. No NATO or US soldiers on the line.
Nato has no right to be in Ukraine
There's no reason to "destroy russia" and no way to do it even if it wasn't an insane goal without destroying ourselves....
even if we could painlessly topple the russian leadership, what would follow is hunger chaos and missing nukes in the hands of terrorists for the next 200 years.
this rooting for the ruin of russia because they don't want western missles on their border or to have a belligerent country in control of their warm water port is patently insane and has no happy ending.
it's a testament to the effectiveness of our own propaganda that they got the western left to discard peace as a value and root for military profits even if it breaks ecerything....
people act like the elites are going to let them in their bunkers when this whole bonkers game blows up in their face....

I love this guy, no sarcasm! In today's political climate, the simple act of being such an adamantly institutional officer, to the degree of even refusing to respond to calls for his very execution, is something so powerful, dignified, and worthy of deep respect, in my opinion, that I believe it should be unequivocally cherished!
