general mark milley and send calm genel frank mckenzie acknowledge that they previously urged biden not to pull out all american troops. and secretary of the students austin said the white house was aware of their concerns. >> i've recommended that we maintain 2000 and 500 troops in afghanistan, and i also recommended earlier in the fall of 2020 that we will maintain 4000 at that time. i also have a view that the withdrawal of those forces would lead inevitably to the collapse of an afghan military forces, and eventually the afghan government. >> general milley i assume that you agree withhat in terms of the recommendaon of 2500? >> and do you agree with tt? . my assessmentoss back, the fa of 20 and rain constent throughout, we ould keep a steady state of 2500, and it could bounce up to 3500, maybe something like that. in order to move towards a negotiated gated solution. >> i'm confident the president heard all of the recommendation. i listen to him very thoughtful. >> they're very input was received by the president, and considered by the president for sure. >> the problem today was t

in this country, this y, this name is louisejoy, and still unbelievably, he is still the postmasr genelthe ited stes. he w appoied to at job last year ring t trump adnistraon. he hasero poal service experience butots of experience running companies that compete witthe post office a therefore wish the post officto be worse athat it does. also has lots of experience shoveling ge amounts of money to republican candidates including then president tru. as you say recall, as soon as mr. dejoy took this po, he said about deliberately slowing down mail livery in this country. you might remeer some of his greatest hits like destroying 10% of the custom made multimillion dollar il sorting machines just as the postal service was preparing to handle millions of time-sensitive mail-in ballots for the presidential election. but you know, during the time he's been in charge, his own former company has done well and he's done well personally. under louis dejoy's leadership, the u.s. postal service ramped up its business with a logistics company that louis dejoy used to run. it's a company that continue

shortly aftery cl wh genel lee, i personally informed seetary of state pompeo and chief meadows abo the call, among other topics. >> joing us now are nbc news pentagon statement courtney kube, and retired four-star general and analyst barry mccaffrey. welcome to the three of you. courtney, let's start with that call to the chinese, because general milley said not because of his fears about the attack, but the fears that he thought they might. this pushed back against what were some of the more alarmist interpretations of the book "peril." >> right, and this is what we've been hearing from defense officials since the first excerpts of that book came out. general milley, this call was coordinated with the interagency, that there were other people involved in the call who were awar of , that there was a script involve and it was something planned or weeks. the ting of it, the chinese, actually, are the ones that came guard with seval dates to choose from. general milley chose tm before the january 6 insurrection. so many othe things that people tookut of the scenario laid out in the bob wd

two, some of the same republicans who were calling genel milley a traitor when peril was reported bys organizations. do we live in a moment like the movie where he tattoos things on his arms, you wake up every day and everything is fresh, or is there any sense that the man they don't wanto use as a kuj i will is something they wanted fired ten days ago? >> there are two things to remember based off today's testimony that will be lost because there were so many interesting and surprising revelations. one, general milley also spoke about something that's been reported, but nevereard him talk about on the record. that was a memo that he got from the white house, late 2020, ordering all u.s. troops, all u.s. troops out of afghanistan by mid january, and he talked about the proce of that a little bit today, how ultimately with the pentagon recommendations and guidance that was rescinded. that was under president trump. that was the first time we heard general milley talk specically about that happening, even though i had been reported. the second thing you have to remember is while we had

violence and militancy claims the strikes are only illegal if they failed in repeated callsil for legal genel strikes demonstrate the flagrant disregard for property life and the rule of law so i'm just wondering if you are interested in recanting into the statement and if you wouldst agree that tolerance regarding union violence would be appropriate because i agree with you the that zero tolerance regarding violence on an airplane is the standard we have to strive to so wheree do you stand on zero tolerance regarding union violence? >> i don't know what you're talking about with union violence but i know the labor movement pushes peaceful civil disobedience. i know the workers who are behind me right now 1100 mineworkers on strike right now in alabama have been peacefully demonstrating. they have been hit five times. >> maam i just read your statement. >> i want to be very clear. my friend paul hawthorne died on the job. there are many people who died on the job and they are postal workers. >> maam that's great but in talking about union violence. i grew up in a time in pennsylvania were --
