General Caine,
Trump has violated the Constitution and the UCMJ with his orders. You know the details. Killing supposed drug dealers without due cause and respect for humanity violates the fundamental concepts of humanity.
He has invaded Venezuela and captured their head of state. That is an act of war.
He is ready to invade Greenland, against will of our ally Denmark. Against wishes of all the countries of NATO. He wants to destroy NATO and be friends with the dictator Putin.
Now he instructs you to prepare troops to invade United States cities. Yes, you, and I do mean YOU, the JCS, are preparing to INVADE United States cities.
At your next meeting of the JSC, please read those last two sentences. Put the concept into your own words, say it out loud, and listen to what you say. Have each member of the JCS to state it in their own words. Listen to what it means. Is our democracy worth that effort?
Trump wants absolute control over, well, everything and everyone. Do you support that? Almost every single day you go further down a path to destroy democracy.
You are legally required to not obey unlawful orders!
When and where will you draw the line?
I am fearful of what Trump wants to do and what he will do. Should I be fearful of what you will do?
Very respectfully, a concerned and frightened veteran,
Michael Bryan Kelly
