Remember General Mark Milley? The guy who was outsmarted by people who have sex with goats? The guy who conspired with Nancy Pelosi to thwart Donald Trump’s plans to use nuclear weapons against Russia? Trump had no such plans, but hey, you can’t be too careful, can you? And most of all, Milley assured his Chinese counterpart—that’s his Communist Chinese military counterpart—that he would inform them of any hostile action Trump might be planning against China.

That’s the same China that plans to rule the world and has infiltrated spies into our government, academia, and innumerable businesses. It’s the same China that is constantly stealing our national security, national defense industrial, and academic secrets, and the same China that is engaged in a long-term, essentially unprecedented, military build-up.

Everyday Americans would think that treason, but with the second Trump term, Milley didn’t completely escape punishment. Biden’s handlers pardoned him, but SECWAR Hegseth pulled his security clearances and personal security detail, removed his portrait from the Pentagon, and ordered a review with the aim of revoking a star in retirement. That review is apparently ongoing.
It seems the example of Milley isn’t sufficient to prevent additional high-ranking treason, as The Gateway Pundit reports:
Some of America’s highest-ranking military officials were subjected to polygraph examinations during a sweeping Pentagon investigation into the leaking of highly classified information about the nation’s weapons stockpiles.
President Donald Trump was reportedly furious after sensitive details concerning America’s supply of sophisticated weapons appeared in media reports.
According to leftist CBS News, several dozen officials were questioned earlier this summer, including officials assigned to U.S. Central Command and other combatant commands.
The scale of the polygraph operation was described as extraordinarily rare.
That—weapons procurement, manufacturing, and stockpiles—is the kind of thing we don’t want our enemies to know. Iran is surely taking such reports into account, thinking they might be able to wait out Trump due to the lack of foresight of people like Biden’s Handlers who didn’t exactly prioritize filling our ammunition larders. It’s leaks like this that cost lives, even the lives of our enemies and their people. The Mullahs are infamous for murdering their own people to retain power, and all Islamists are equally infamous for using their people as human shields.
The New York Times first reported the broader hunt, saying investigators put roughly 50 members of the Joint Staff through polygraphs in August after a wave of stories about depleted stocks of long-range missiles, Patriot interceptors, and other finite munitions as the United States fights Iran.

Chief Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell told CBS Friday night the Department “does not comment on internal personnel or investigative matters but takes all leaks of classified national security information extremely seriously and investigates accordingly.”
Fortunately, it appears SECWAR Hegseth is taking this seriously:
In July, Hegseth announced a joint Pentagon, Justice Department task force to identify and prosecute people suspected of leaking sensitive government information. He gave the Office of General Counsel broad authority to demand records and ordered personnel to answer within two days.
“When a leak of department information occurs today, it’s critical that we provide the Department of Justice and other partners in federal law enforcement — including the FBI — with actionable information as quickly as possible,” Hegseth said.
Leakers may be afflicted with Trump Derangement Syndrome—TDS—and/or be members of the Deep State. They’ve infested our military and every federal agency, slow-rolling and sabotaging Trump Administration orders and policies, and waiting for the great day when they can, once again, wreak revenge on Normal Americans for the unforgivable sin of electing Donald Trump, who has appointed a cabinet full of people like Pete Hegseth.
Or perhaps the leakers are upset that we are short on the weapons we need to fight monsters like the Iranians and think handing national security secrets over to the Democrat press will somehow magically cause those magazines to be more rapidly filled. They apparently overlook the fact that Democrats oppose everything Trump does, including keeping Iran from getting nuclear weapons, and funding and supporting our military in general. They view the military as a social experimentation laboratory, not war fighters whose sole purpose is killing our enemies and breaking their stuff. They’ll do everything possible to prevent re-arming.
Regardless of their motivations, they’re still committing treason, and Normal Americans aren’t going to be satisfied, and the leaks aren’t going to stop, until, unlike the execrable Mark Milley, high-ranking officers and civilians make the march to the gallows.
It’s that serious, and so are they.
