Retired U.S. Navy Captain James Fanell criticized retired General Mark Milley, former Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman, for his post-retirement comments on former President Trump. Fanell argued that Milley’s actions breach military ethics and highlight concerning trends in the politicization of the U.S. military.
Criticism of Milley’s Comments on Trump
James Fanell, a retired Navy Captain and former senior intelligence officer, strongly criticized General Mark Milley’s recent public remarks about Donald Trump. Milley, who had previously served as the top U.S. military officer, described Trump as a potential threat to the nation, even suggesting he exhibited traits of a “fascist.” Fanell viewed Milley’s statements as a violation of the ethical standards expected of former military leaders.
Fanell noted, “These kinds of acts call into question the oath they took—defending against all enemies, foreign and domestic.” He argued that Milley’s remarks undermine the core constitutional principle of civilian control over the military. If Milley had legitimate concerns about Trump’s fitness as Commander-in-Chief, Fanell suggested he should have addressed them privately while still in office.
A Breach of Military Ethics?
Fanell emphasized that General Milley’s role as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff was advisory, not operational. As an advisor to the President, Milley’s duty was to offer counsel, not to criticize a sitting or former President post-service publicly. “Milley’s comments show contempt for the office of the presidency,” Fanell remarked, highlighting how this contradicts the military’s tradition of non-partisanship.
Comparisons to Historical Figures: A Loss of Professionalism
Fanell compared General Milley’s behavior to historical military figures who maintained neutrality, even under pressure. He referenced General George Marshall, a former Chief of Staff of the U.S. Army, who famously abstained from voting to avoid any appearance of political bias. According to Fanell, Milley’s recent remarks signal a worrying shift in the conduct of senior military officials, moving away from professionalism.
“Milley’s actions are unprecedented,” Fanell stated. He believes that such actions harm the reputation of the U.S. military as a politically neutral institution. Fanell argued that if Milley felt strongly against Trump’s leadership, he should have resigned during his tenure rather than airing grievances years later. […]

Why One Survival Food Company Shines Above the Rest
Let’s be real. “Prepper Food” or “Survival Food” is generally awful. The vast majority of companies that push their cans, bags, or buckets desperately hope that their customers never try them and stick them in the closet or pantry instead. Why? Because if the first time they try them is after the crap hits the fan, they’ll be too shaken to call and complain about the quality.
It’s true. Most long-term storage food is made with the cheapest possible ingredients with limited taste and even less nutritional value. This is why they tout calories so much. Sure, they provide calories but does anyone really want to go into the apocalypse with food their family can’t stand?
This is what prompted the Llewellyns to launch Heaven’s Harvest. They bought survival food from multiple companies and determined they couldn’t imagine being stuck in an extended emergency with such low-quality food. They quickly discovered that freeze drying food for long-term storage doesn’t have to mean sacrificing flavor, consistency, or nutrition.
Their ingredients are all-American. In fact, they’re locally sourced and all-natural! This allows their products to be the highest quality on the market, so good that their customers often break open a bag in a pinch to eat because they want to, not just because they have to due to an emergency.
At Heaven’s Harvest, their only focus is amazing food. They don’t sell bugout bags, solar chargers, or multitools. They have one mission – feeding Americans in times of crisis.
What they DO offer is the ability for people to thrive in times of greatest need. On top of long-term storage food, they offer seeds to help Americans for the truly long-term. They want them to grow their own food if possible which is why they offer only Heirloom, Non-GMO, Non-Hybrid, Open-Pollinated seeds so their customers can build permanent food security on their own property.
