This to me is the single biggest piece of circumstancial evidence that the military is acting independently where it counts. Obama failed to fire him when he was running things, then 4 years of all out lawfare during Trump's 1st term, and the General is still standing.
I'll bet you anything that Obama and Biden would have siezed on any opportunity to silence "The Man Who Knows Where the Bodies are Buried" once and for all, or at the very least get him back in front of a judge, where they could enforce a gag order against him. The Myanmar comments would have been the perfect chance to do so whether they actually had a viable case or not.
But that would require them to actually have control.
Key phrase: against the Chinese
Ding Ding Ding! Good post and comment btw. This is a good third line to any response to "Trump would be dead." Which is a good second line response to "Flynn would be dead."
