    Donald Trump made a series of aggressive comments on social media about outgoing head of the Joint Chiefs Mark Milley, suggesting the top
    military leader’s conduct was worthy of execution.

    “Mark Milley, who led perhaps the most embarrassing moment in American history with his grossly incompetent implementation of the withdrawal
    from Afghanistan, costing many lives, leaving behind hundreds of
    American citizens, and handing over BILLIONS of dollars of the finest
    military equipment ever made, will be leaving the military next week,”
    Mr Trump wrote on Truth Social on Friday.

    “This will be a time for all citizens of the USA to celebrate!” he continued. “This guy turned out to be a Woke train wreck who, if the
    Fake News reporting is correct, was actually dealing with China to give
    them a heads up on the thinking of the President of the United States.
    This is an act so egregious that, in times gone by, the punishment would
    have been DEATH!”

    The former president’s comments could potentially run afoul of his
    release conditions ahead of his trials related to the special counsel investigations against him in the Mar-a-Lago documents and 2020 election conspiracy cases. He has been warned to avoid publicly attacking court
    officers and potential witnesses on social media.

    If Mr Milley is in fact a witness in either of these case, Mr Trump
    could face serious penalties.

    "My bet: Donald Trump is threatening General Milley because General
    Milley is on the government’s witness list for the trial in the
    Mar-a-Lago documents case," former New York Attorney General’s Office official Tristan Snell wrote on X on Saturday.

    Mr Trump’s attacks on Mr Milley come after the military official was
    featured in an in-depth profile in The Atlantic, where the general
    described Mr Trump’s “disturbing” alleged lack of respect for the armed forces.

    He described how at a 2019 event, Mr Trump reportedly expressed disgust
    that Luis Avila, an Army veteran who served five combat tours and lost
    his leg in an IED attack, was chosen to sing “God Bless America.”

    "Why do you bring people like that here? No one wants to see that, the wounded,” Mr Trump allegedly said.
