Just The News:
When Christopher Miller on Monday took his post as acting defense secretary to replace the newly fired Mark Esper, many throughout the United States and abroad knew nothing about the new Pentagon chief. Miller is well known in military circles, though, particularly among the elite ranks of Army Special Forces.
“The dude’s legit,” one long serving member of the special operations community told Just the News. “Everyone loves him.”
Miller, 55, is known among his Special Forces peers for his part in a secret mission in Afghanistan immediately following the 9/11 attacks. He and other Green Berets, many of them riding horses, went deep into Taliban territory to seek and destroy the enemy.
Not your typical bureaucrat it seems.
And he will not hesitate to invoke the Insurrection Act.
God Speed Steve !
Brad — he won’t invoke it, but he’ll no doubt carry it out.
In the word of my dear old grand mother….SHIT’S ABOUT TO GET REAL!
I wonder how many moosloids that M-16 snuffed…
A real warrior, not a paper pusher, is what we need as SecDef.
First thing on his agenda should be to go after the military members involved in lying to POTUS about the draw down of forces in Syria. Court Martial the lot of them.

Mark Esper said, “I will not invoke the Insurrection Act Mr. President”.
This guy will. There’s no mystery here.
I’ll believe it when I see it. I’m old enough to remember the same yahoos saying the same thing about the warrior-monk, Mad Dog Mattis. And it was 100% bullshit. Just another lowlife Colin Powell maintaining the failed status quo, trying to glorify and justify himself while getting as many young American men killed as possible and stabbing a real leader in the back. Don’t fucking tell me, show me.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but this guy never had any stars… which is a good/great thing! To be in the general ranks, you HAD to be political.
