WASHINGTON - Today, Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL), along with House Committee on Oversight and Reform Ranking Member James Comer (R-KY), led a letter with Republican members of the committee in requesting the transcript(s) and related materials of calls reportedly conducted by General Mark A. Milley with Chinese military officials.
"I stand united with my fellow Republican House Oversight Committee members in demanding transparency and accountability from the top brass in our Armed Forces following the disturbing allegation levied against General Milley," said Rep. Donalds. "There is no greater crime than treason. If the claims documented in the forthcoming Woodward/Costa book hold, General Milley will be the modern-day Benedict Arnold, and appropriate action will be warranted."
"Contrary to what the administration is saying, there is no excuse for treasonous behavior, full stop. As a member of the House Oversight Committee and a Constitutional Conservative, I take the allegations against General Milley with the utmost seriousness. While the Department of Defense is attempting to sweep this gross infraction under the rug, it is the job of this committee to hold this administration accountable. This request for documents will ensure transparency and set the record straight. Did General Milley commit treason, or didn't he? The answer to this crucial question rests in those transcripts, and for the sake of our Constitutional Republic, it would behoove Secretary Lloyd Austin to release these documents promptly."
