The military in Burma have constitutional control over the system of government. In a precarious move following the November elections, the Burmese military have now reportedly detained the government officials and stated the election was rigged.
JAKARTA, Indonesia – Burma’s military has taken control of the country under a one-year state of emergency and reports say State Counsellor Aung San Suu Kyi and other government leaders have been detained.
[…] In November elections, Suu Kyi’s party captured 396 out of 476 seats in the combined lower and upper houses of Parliament. The state Union Election Commission has confirmed that result.
But the military since shortly after the elections has claimed there were millions of irregularities in voter lists in 314 townships that could have let voters cast multiple ballots or commit other “voting malpractice.” (read more)
The White House responded in defense of the government; which, given the ideology of the Previous Obama administration toward Aung San Suu Kyi, is not a surprise:
The United States is alarmed by reports that the Burmese military has taken steps to undermine the country’s democratic transition, including the arrest of State Counselor Aung San Suu Kyi and other civilian officials in Burma. President Biden has been briefed by National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan. We continue to affirm our strong support for Burma’s democratic institutions and, in coordination with our regional partners, urge the military and all other parties to adhere to democratic norms and the rule of law, and to release those detained today. The United States opposes any attempt to alter the outcome of recent elections or impede Myanmar’s democratic transition, and will take action against those responsible if these steps are not reversed. We are monitoring the situation closely and stand with the people of Burma, who have already endured so much in their quest for democracy and peace. ~ White House
China comes calling…
The exact same thing should happen here in this country
Any news on whether Burma uses Dominion machines?
The Carter Center observers have been there since 2013. Comforting.
No, but they do know when Hammer and Scorecard has been used in their country.
Yes Doc, Burma uses Dominion.
Not those currently in charge of the military.
Exactly.
This couldn’t possibly be due to cultural differences very clearly indicated in FBI crime data, could it now…
Air Force tracking discipline data to ensure fairness
6 Jan 2020
https://www.airforcetimes.com/news/your-air-force/2021/01/13/air-force-tracking-discipline-data-to-ensure-fairness/
Air Force commanders are now required to track demographic data from lesser disciplinary actions to make sure they are being carried out fairly and impartially.
These disciplinary actions include administrative counseling, admonishments and reprimands, the Air Force said in a release Jan. 6. The Air Force plans to track rank, age, gender, race and ethnicity, of both airmen and Space Force guardians who are being punished, and those who issue the disciplinary actions.
This almost made me puke. I can imagine what 1950s SAC commander General Curtis LeMay would have said to this First Sergeant and it wouldn’t be because he was a bigot because he famously was not:
USAF Chief of Staff Gen. David Goldfein: Goldfein: Embracing Diversity Isn’t About Being Politically Correct, It’s a “Warfighting Imperative” – 1 Mar 2019
https://www.airforcemag.com/Goldfein-Embracing-Diversity-Isnt-About-Being-Politically-Correct-Its-a-Warfighting-Imperative/
To illustrate his point, Goldfein told a story about his first chief master sergeant when he was a squadron commander, and a box. One day, the chief came into his office and handed him the box and said that it “makes your airmen mad” and it “oughta make you mad.” He said he couldn’t understand his point. Looking closer, it was a box of flesh colored Band-Aids.
“I ain’t getting it,” Goldfein said he told him.
The chief pulled out the pink, “flesh-colored” Band-Aid and put it on his skin. The chief is black, the Band-Aid is made for white people, and the bandage completely stuck out. “He said, ‘That ought to make you mad, because it makes a lot of your airmen mad.’ And he winked and he walked out,” Goldfein said. “So what’s the moral of the story, as leaders, as servant leaders. I couldn’t see it. I could’ve stared at that thing for weeks and I would never have seen it.”
It takes someone from a different background to be able to point out something you could never see as an issue, Goldfein said.
I’m so damned glad I retired from the USAF before this neo-Marxist Postmodernist CRAP took hold.
Little wonder we can’t win wars anymore. Our proprieties are so fuxed up.
I will add “should have happened” – past tense. We had an AG that threw a hissy fit and resigned when asked to do something about the election fraud. President Trump was left by himself. Tough to win a war when you are the only one fighting.
So what? He should have immediately appointed an “Acting” AG, one who is 100% loyal from say…the Trump Org. & ordered him to prosecute. Simple really. People forget that the AG works FOR POTUS, and can be ordered to do things he doesn’t want to do. However, you must have a POTUS who will actually give orders to subordinates. President Trump wouldn’t do that, so here we are today. You cannot run a country if you are unwilling to order those under you to do what you want them to do.
I bet they would have concocted, tried and sentenced President Trump too just about anything that they wanted too if he had tried to do that.
I don’t think the swamp was going to confirm anyone for AG that wasn’t already a swamp member. To think they would is simpleminded really.
Bingo. I’d change that from “what you want then to do” to “What MUST be done.”
Simple when a simple minded armchair quarterback, who has fantasies about how government works and absolutely NO understanding of how it actually works, makes a pronouncement pulled out of their *ss.
IMHO
Amen, Dutchman.
Seem to be an awful lot of really smart hindsight quarterbacks out and about lately.
It saddens me to see people criticizing our President (NOT Xiden – our true President.) He loves us and loves this country. My heart breaks for him. It seems people had him built up in their minds as a super hero – able to leap tall buildings in a single bound and all. He was a man – no different that any man. There was only so much he could do with his hands tied and his moves blocked from every angle.
Much thanks to MANY here doing the building up and claiming 4D chess. It was four years wasted on the false hope that “Trump’s got this!”
To say the least – this is disappointing:

This is a great read, all who wondered what happened at the WH when Sydney Flynn and Byrne showed up should check it out; good comments too.
“ I can get involved, but I’m not going to. “
Those works will go down in history as some of the saddest ever spoken.
*words*
Lots of legitimate frustration… and none of Trump’s hesitation/ inaction to JUST drain the swamp — even though the swamp IS trying to destroy him — makes any logical sense. It just doesn’t. PT had to know these evil SOBs would not relent until he is thoroughly destroyed. So fight. You’re life does depend on it.
And RIGHT, Antiqueiron, pass the d– baton to the next guy (acting AG) and ORDER him to investigate election fraud.
Its ludicrous, on its face and overtly false… for Barr to have declared there was no massive fraud in the 2020 election. HE expected there to be fraud b/c HE said that mass mail-in ballots were THE most susceptible to fraud and that we had not used them b4.
Was PDJT not … talking to Barr daily/weekly about this? So much evidence of fraud exists. We’ve all seen it. Of course Barr has seen it too. Navarro’s proof, alone, is sufficient to require across-the-board investigations and serious detailed audits.
This is madness. Something is wrong.
When things defy logic there is some serious reason for it. And, the reason is NOT because Trump is a baby and incapable of judging the character, integrity, honesty of EVERYONE he surrounded himself with. That is ridiculous and did not happen. That is not the reason for this nonsence– inability to accomplish basic stuff– commit a crime: get prosecuted; commit massive election fraud: get caught.
These are catastrophically serious and nation-destroying crimes. They cannot be permitted to go unpunished, period.
Even BURMA is capable of identifying election fraud and DOING SOMETHING about it. Perhaps they plan to fix the issues and then hold another election?
This is all nonsensical!
Yup, doesn’t add up- everything. Cognitive Dissonance comes into play here. Deep capture #3 linked above by Scarlett sheds some light. Discernment in these days are crucial.
I love Trump then and now, but he really screwed up after Nov 3rd. I don’t know if he was shell shocked about the election, but he should have went on the offensive on Nov. 4th. He should have had a daily press conference about what his lawyers were finding out with this fraud and he should of have one person who did the talking, instead he had numerous people speaking all saying something different. Those state electors in the battleground states should have been harassed everyday to do the right thing. And it certainly does not look like he had any plan after they stole the 2018 mid terms.
PT was not shell shocked.
He was well aware of the likelihood that Dems would commit … massive fraud w/mail-in ballots.
He said as much, as did Barr… so the … smart move is EITHER stop it from occurring in the 1st place OR catch the fraudsters in the act, nationwide
And, it is certainly possible to stop it from occurring. The election committee people and counters do not strike me as the cream of the IQ crop.
Have lawyers ready at many DEM counting facilities to challenge this crap.
Put together a military cyber security team you can trust to monitor and record, in real time, these dominion systems…
Put video cameras in the ceilings of ALL counting facilities in the country.
EITHER do not permit the fraud … OR… record it to prove the fraud and punish the guilty and create a REASON to fix our crappy untrustworthy election systems.
I would have gone with door #2. Its more fun and you kill more birds w/ one stone ….but to have done nothing is simply … inexplicable. So, BECAUSE it is ABSURD to have done nothing… I do believe #2 was done… even though it appears nothing was done to PROTECT the INTEGRITY of our election.
Not easily stopped if the CIA and FBI pulled off the steal, which is what I suspect happened.
Their motive?
Easy.
Terrified that a second Trump administration would expose their extensive spying operations on political campaigns.
I’m where you are a week ago, Trump claimed for months ahead of the elections voter fraud would happen with all the mail in ballots. And he didn’t do ANYTHING?
What about the 2018 EO, the 305 KRACKEN etc etc?
Then he meets with McCarthy and talks retake the house in 2022! And think tanks! That’ll do it!
If there is some 3d plan… not seeing any sign of life in any of that. That leads me to an uncomfortable realization. Remember the motto by Sundance, “The truth has no agenda”.
I’m getting the idea that President Trump didn’t want to be the a-hole. He knows a lot – like which direction the country should go and how to get there but I’m beginning to think he just couldn’t be a jerk when he needed to be. If you read Patrick Byrne’s account you’ll see that Rudy did a poor job leading the election fraud team but even when this was pointed out to POTUS he said that Rudy was the guy.
And…despite Pat Cippolini being apparently beligerent to him, and with ulterior motives, POTUS still said he considered him a friend.
How much abuse can a person take for 4 years with almost zero support from those close to you? Constant trashing by EVERYONE to the point of insanity and despite him doing a great job – in fact the better the job he did the more they hated him.
None of us knows what it was like for POTUS and his family to endure what they did. And then they took away the one thing that the people who love him had – our vote. There have been times I’ve just wished I could hug him…he’s had to put up with the worst the enemy within could deal out.
So let me get this right…
All these BLM/AntiFa members are not charged and set free…
So I guess President Trump should have done the work himself.. stayed up late at night… type up indictment and draw it up all by himself.
remember the VA before the president Started cleaning house.. lousy service etc.. The deep state threw PDT a bone.. a distraction..
And here it comes… THE DOJ/FBI PUT PEOPLE IN JAIL..The CIA help set them up…
There is NO WAY IN H**L President Trump would be allowed to appoint anyone WHO WAS LOYAL TO PRESIDENT TRUMP and TAKE THE RISK OF BEING PUT IN JAIL.
All you have to remember.. Kevin Clinesmith alter FBI evidence (a 20 year felony) to enable spying on the President of the United States…
AND HE GOT PROBATION.
no I really don’t mean to yell but get it right.. all this he could have done this he should have done that is BS..
Gen Flynn had charges dropped and the FEDERAL JUDGE refused to drop the case..
We are in deep trouble in this nation.. No enforcement of constitutional law. No enforcement of the bill of right. Voter fraud, stock market fraud.. election fraud.. and the MSM say everything is fine..
It’s Not.
MAGA
BS
…PT … could have just TWEETED that arrogant McConnell– who was up for reelection in 2020– was DENYING the PRESIDENT the right to hire an AG of his choosing ….and one who would DO his job—indict and prosecute Govt officials caught committing the CRIME of sedition, among other crimes.
DONE. If Mitch wants to get reelected, he needs to stand down. NOT rocket science. This is easy.
Obviously, it would be worded differently to AVOID Trump being accused of obstruction of justice when in reality he is trying to OBTAIN justice… and restore the Rule of LAW.
Oops. Didn’t see you had already posted that. 🙂
Should have happened in force at exactly the moment 5 states coordinated to immediately stop counting votes when the President was clearly winning re-election. That’s when 25000 troops were needed.
…should HAVE…. happened. The longer the current usurpers are in power, the harder it will be to dislodge them, in any way whatever.
correction… some here think it SHOULD HAVE happened here… difficult, because of the huge numbers of non-patriots showing up in the upper ranks of our military…
Agreed!
Amen Sanjac!
With the USA being the beacon of election fraud, they can only have one unwavering position.
If Biden is backing those who got elected there probably was massive cheating
C’mon, man! Cheaters gotta stick together!
At least there is hope in Burma.
Not so much here in the United States.
Same thing should have happened here.
Biden lost like 2 million vaccines- he needs to find them before going into other countries and making them “follow the rule of law”. ?
More like 20 million doses are missing.
Good thing that they were paid for before they were lost or somebody (s) might not have received their payoffs.
Probably sold, its called “black market”, but thats no doubt rasssscist, now.
As long as the big man got his cut, its all good.
Tiffthis – its witchcraft. Biden can do anything – he just has to say he didnt do it to the NPCs.
Seems like the Burmese have had a close shave!
????
(That’ll do a 30,000 ft. flyby past a lot of younger readers……)
GREAT^^^^
Great! You’ve been around for a while…
I learned about the Burma Shave signs from watching late 30s to early 60s Warner Brothers’ cartoons.
Cheer up China
Biden’s your man
Use him whenever
You seek to expand
For after all he is your knave
To give the folks of Myanmar a real “Burma Shave.”
Enjoy…
This was my inspiration!
Loved it! Thank you!
Look you birds, these signs cost money,
So roost a while, but don’t get funny!
@ the 3 min. mark… I have known some women from that era that like their “Whisker Rubs”!
But, my mother told me to stay away from those women, so I cannot say for sure!
Any chance we can get the Burmese to assist with investigations of election fraud here?
Maybe they could loan out their military to us.
Now there’s a real “culture exchange.”
What I see in this story? America [should have been] FIRST!
What if there actually was massive fraud? Wouldn’t you want the military to take over while the fraud is being rooted out and a new election is administered?
They’re a democratic governement, how could there be fraud. . .Oh Wait! /sarc
What passes for leadership in the upper military today is more concerned with keeping their transgendered crew happy on a battle field vs supporting the constitution.
Ah yes, the absolute moral authority of the Biden administration in sanctioning someone else’s election behavior.
I predict this is one of the dirty tricks that has been cooked up by the Clinton-style strategists. ALWAYS produce a FAKE scandal to point at to take power away from REAL scandal. (Russian collusion hoax was designed to accuse Trump of working with Russia when Hillary was concerned her Uranium One activities were going to affect her election chances). The Fake Story tires out the people of the world, they twist and turn the story around in their hands, trying to figure out who is right, who is wrong, the media loves a good story to chase for a while AND globalists are well entrenched, “what is another year?!? They will wait while the military deals with “election” problems and the ever popular NLT gal will get re-elected!!! See, what a joke these military worry-warts are!! They want to take over governments and investigate fraud, but their claims are flimsy, remember that Myanmar story last year??? Ha ha ha.” Their playbook is well worn!! Classic grabbing of truth and watering it down with a complicated situation in a far away land.
Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) will have to appear in front of a “secretive” Senate ethics panel, according to Politico, over allegations that “two senators played a role in inciting the violent Capitol attack,” by objecting to certifying presidential electors from several key states.
The Senate Ethics Committee, which Politico describes as “one of the most secretive committees in Congress” will review the cases against both Hawley and Cruz after several leading Democrats made an official ethics complaint to committee head, Sen. Chris Coons (D-DE) on January 21st.
Why do I think Ted Cruz was reincarnated from a man on the Titanic who dressed like a woman to get a place in a lifeboat?
Burma should say to US to fck off. US has no moral high ground here.
Well, we know for sure the current US adiminstration supports fraudulent elections, so naturally they would support the side accused of a fraudulent election without any evidence.
Any moral high ground the US ever had to lecture other nations is not just “Gone with the Wind”, but has been eviscerated by the equivalent of a Cat 25 hurricane. If there is any of it left, very doubtful, you couldn’t find it with a diving rod and a diving bell,
While this is mildly interesting, the most important fact is that it’s none of damn business.
Is there any basis why Joe Bama is supporting the Burmese government which is accused of voter fraud? Flocks of a feather….
Democratic norms! I have seen enough of what they’re calling Democratic norms, to last a lifetime.
“Right now they are “Waging War on the 1st Amendment, We Support the Need For Social Media Platforms to Take Steps to Reduce Hate Speech (VIDEO)” according to this article.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/02/biden-white-house-wages-war-1st-amendment-support-need-social-media-platforms-take-steps-reduce-hate-speech-video/
It’s a lot worse than that…
And remember, Biden isn’t smart enough to do this on his own. I see O’Bunko’s “community organizer” paw prints all over it.
What we probably do have in common with Burma is Dominion voting machines, interference of the CIA, and a non existent judiciary.
The irony is so thick here that you need Comp-B to cut into it.
Burma showing the FUSA how to do things right.
The JoeBama whitehouse isn’t afraid of losing a small potatoes allie. My $.02. Obama and Hillary helped setup their fraudulent voting system. (They did travel there). They are now afraid of what the military will uncover. That it will lead back here and to our fraud.
That picture sure makes it look like those two were involved.
Just more evidence for the ongoing Trump investigation of the Stolen Election Fraud.
Cattle dogs are super smart. You are definitely on to something.
I would be willing to bet that if we see direct military action by the US to ‘save their democracy’ that Dominion and/or Smartmattic has been helping with their vote tabulation… just my 1st Amendment protected and humble opinion.
Burma has taken the correct path.
When the incumbent powers have been thoroughly corrupted to where even the judiciary is corrupt, there is no remaining traditional or government-based path to enforce the existing laws, correct the wrongs, and punish the wrongdoers.
The military provides all of that: arrest and detention powers, prosecution & trial powers (tribunals), and penal powers (prison and capital punishment powers).
Myanmar is unsophisticated, and so screwed up.
SHOULD have taken their lead from the U.S.
WELL before you steal an election, thru massive ballot fraud, you corrupt to nutralise ANY who could oppose or interfere.
The Courts Federal LE and Prosecutors, the media, AND the MILITARY.
Sheesh, didn’t they read the book?
Yep. That’s exactly what happened. Betrayed by all.
This seems to be the original tweet on the day as well.
So wait…. Q was talking about Myanmar this whole time?
Lol!
Damn you, Q! (Shakes fist)
Yes that’s what the plan was all about.
You may want to look into Smartmatic software, Dominion voting systems and election fraud.
Oh I so needed that laugh!
I sure wish our military had the strength and courage to counter the coup that has taken place in broad daylight. JoeObama and Pelosi even let the American people know ahead of time that the election was going to be stolen and that President Trump would never be allowed back in the WH.
We don’t need a military coup to resolve a legal matter. That would signal total loss of control.
How would that be different from what we have now?
IMHO, “total loss of control” already happened.
When you are no longer under the rule of law?
Clearly, Burma has a far more righteous military than we now have. I don’t think they get into stupid endless wars either. I’d sure be willing to trade.
They obviously have a commander in chief or the equivalent with courage.
Whom in Burma is China allied with? That will tell me everything. Don’t think the Burmese military can’t be infiltrated. The counterfeit Biden administration could just be posturing to appear as if anti-China, if China were to support the military’s takeover. Nothing is ever as it seems on the surface.
Apparently, China’s response is very “muted” about the military coup. So, unsure where China is involved in all this. The CCP expends enormous resources in meddling, so don’t think they don’t have a hand here in the military coup. Sure, they likely had a fraudulent election, but perhaps it was staged to force this move. Nothing is ever as it seems on the surface.
I have friends who have done overseas mission work for years, including in Myanmar, and they are indicating that this may be a crack-down on Christians and others seeking more freedom.
“The Lady” as Aung San Suu Kyi is called by the people in the country, was generally loved by most of the people but has also made some unpopular decisions in the last couple of years. She is evidently being held somewhere at an undisclosed location…not sure WHO exactly are the “good guys” or the “bad guys” in this scenario. My friend also said that most of the Generals are evil and VERY corrupt!
Like everything else these days, I’m sure there are probably LOTS of political games being played behind the scenes, and I certainly take everything that the Biden “administration” or the MSM say with a large grain of salt!
Well well well, isn’t that interesting…
Don’t know if this will show up!
Hopefully coming to a neighborhood near us…
For that to happen, we would need a military against ballot fraud rather than one that supports it.
The United States should do the same.
Gee i thought she was a war criminal and had murdered and ethnically cleansed the Rohingya
So now she is back in our good graces?!
Can we trade out military for the Burmese Military? Or at least bowwow them as our own military is clearly worthless, at best. Maybe borrow the Mexican Military too as they sent 27,000 troops to protect our southern border, whereas the Pentagon could only manage about 2,000 and then they whined about even that.
“Burmese military have now reportedly detained the government officials and stated the election was rigged”. Hummm… I wish we had a Burmese Military…Did I just think that?
I would trade their for ours in a heart beat.
“The White House responded in defense of the government”
Fraudsters support other fraudsters.
Paper ballots. We have to go back to paper ballots.
Canada has paper ballots but guess who totals the results from the paper ballots.
accompanied by voter ID
Interesting that that more than one nation is challenging the the new US government. I suspect Russia and Iran may be planning similar actions. Obama’s tepid response to Russia’s land grab bodes ill for our new foreign policy.
the Left are Liars and Word Re-Definers..
they say we will give “strong support’ to democratic institutions…. and the LEFT is really saying “these idiots will buy it and not see that we told the military to seize them”
If the Biden* regime is against the military in Burma
they must be doing something right over there.
Good for them.
“The United States opposes any attempt to alter the outcome of recent elections or impede Myanmar’s democratic transition, and will take action against those responsible if these steps are not reversed.”
So is JoeBama going to get us in a war? WTF
We are already back into the Syrian Civil War. Or the Russian NG pipeline war.
But it’s OK IF other countries interfere in the US Nov 3rd Presidential Election, because they enabled us to seize the USA, by placing in power a puppet of China who is handing over the USA to China without a shot being fired!
This sounds like what happened here in Canada, with our own puppet of China!
We’ve already seen “our” military in action as they’ve rushed to turn the Capital District into a fortified armed camp to protect the rulers.
With Dominion machines in place, all this talk of a Trump landslide in 2024 is just wishful thinking; expect President Harris to win in her “own” landslide.
To protect the rulers and war against freedom of assembly and freedom of speech, in other words, war against the US Constitution.
This is exactly what President Trump needed to do.
Sadly, he failed to act with the courage he expected everyone else to have.
Maybe they betrayed him? All of our govt was in on the coup.
Including the Pentagon.
Have done what? Ordered the Pentagon to move against the fraud and those who committed it and those who benefited from it? The Pentagon supported the fraud and would have arrested him or killed him.
Yes, as commander in chief he could have ordered the machines and ballots confiscated by the military under his command because it was and is a threat to the Nation.
Anything less than admitting he should have done that is a cop out and only excuses him for not doing what he was elected to do.
As Commander In Chief he had a responsibility to at least try. He didn’t.
Most of you that refuse to see President Trump didn’t carry out his duties are the same ones that were upset that Mike Pence didn’t show courage and carry out his duties also.
President Trump expected Mike Pence to act with courage. The same courage that President Trump failed to show.
Some years the western media had an absolute love affair with Suu Kyi, which for obvious reasons raised my suspicions.
It’s hard to find independent reporting but imho this lady is no saint.
Amazing to have a military that rejects indoctrination even at the highest levels. How fortunate they are.
Aung San Suu Kyi is a commie. It’s no wonder that the cheating commies in America support a fellow communist cheating on an election. I guess the left hasn’t infiltrated Burma’s military as much as it has in America.
President Trump had every right to have had the military arrest every traitor who participated in the coup attempt against him. Wish he had done so.
This is a fun little video to watch as Doug TenNapel celebrates getting out of YT Jail! For all of you who have been jailed, you’ll enjoy!…..

Oh dear…I posted this on the wrong thread. So sorry.
Note in this article the military is not taking control but seems to be ensuring voter integrity by taking the issues to the supreme court. Why didn’t the US SCOTUS hear the fraud charges prior to Jan 6? It would have prevented a multitude of problems. Instead they allowed the media to declare there was no fraud. That’s not how the government is supposed to work imo. https://www.irrawaddy.com/news/burma/myanmar-military-refuses-rule-coup-presses-claim-fraud-nov-election.html
Note it says the Supreme Court WILL HEAR!! he military (or Tatmadaw) publicly claimed to have found 8.6 million irregularities that could have led to opportunities to vote “more than once” or “voting malpractice” in its scrutiny of voter lists in 314 townships in all states and regions. However, it has yet to produce on-the-ground evidence proving that voter fraud actually occurred on election day.
When asked what the Tatmadaw’s next step would be after publicly claiming mass electoral fraud—which was widely seen as a joint move together with its proxy Union Solidarity and Development Party (USDP) to discredit the NLD’s landslide victory—military spokesperson Major General Zaw Min Tun said at a press conference on Tuesday that the military would continue its effort using all means at its disposal in compliance with the Constitution and existing laws.
However, when a reporter asked the spokesperson to clarify whether the vow to comply with the law meant that the military had no plan to seize power, the spokesperson immediately replied, “No.”
“No. The military will abide by existing laws including the Constitution,” Maj-Gen Zaw Min Tun said. “But that doesn’t mean the military will take responsibility for the state or won’t take responsibility for the state,” he continued.
During the press conference, the atmosphere grew tense as reporters and the military spokesperson went back and forth on the same question, with the reporters pressing for a clearer picture of the intention behind the ongoing assertions of fraud by the military and its proxy party, and asking what the military actually means when it says it will take action, in line with the Constitution and existing law, on “unfair and dishonest practices in the vote”.
Notably, the military spokesman chose to open the press conference by recounting the legacy of the 1988 military coup, before going on to defend the Tatmadaw’s interference in the country’s elections as necessary to ensure that the process of moving toward democracy introduced by the military was not derailed.
Article 40(c) of the Constitution grants sovereign power to the commander-in-chief during a state of emergency that could lead to the disintegration of the country or cause a loss of sovereign power, or in the face of attempts to take power through force, including an insurgency or other forms of violence. Critics say the article hands the military chief the power to stage a coup. However, under the Constitution, only the president can declare a state of emergency after consulting and coordinating with the military-dominated National Defense and Security Council (NDSC).
In response to the military and its proxy party’s attempts to discredit the outcome of the election, NLD vice chairman U Zaw Myint Maung said on Sunday that “We have nothing to say to them [the military and USDP]. It is our duty, as the winning party, to convene the newly elected Parliament in time, as per the election laws and Constitution.”
When only a few days left before the newly elected Parliament convenes, the military has also called on the government, the Union Election Commission (UEC) or outgoing parliamentarians to prove that the November general election was free and fair so that it can accept the result.
Maj-Gen Zaw Min Tun said at Tuesday’s press conference that the Tatmadaw would forward its findings of irregularities to the Supreme Court.
The Supreme Court will hear from two military-linked political parties through video conferencing on Friday before deciding whether to approve their requests that the court issue writs against the President and Union Election Commission (UEC) chairman on grounds of electoral misconduct.”
the problem here, I think is the the open society had already filed amicus briefs to limit POTUS Power and that he would need congressional approval to declare the election invalid. That wasn’t going to happen because Pelosi et al wanted Trump gone by any means necessary. We the American people see what you are doing.
https://www.brennancenter.org/our-work/research-reports/martial-law-explained
Lin Wood stated the other day, that “Since Biden is an illegitimate POTUS, appointed by fraud, all of his EO’s are illegitimate also & constitute fraud”! I am paraphrasing here, but this is basically what he stated.
Now, using the same rational, I also heard that the Mid-Terms were stolen from Trump using the Dominion Voting Systems Fraud to give the majority to the Democrats in the House.
Can Trump say that “Since the Mid Term Election was stolen from me also, ANY victories involving the House majority votes are invalid & fraud”?
Problem here is finding a court that will give a fair & honest hearing in America right now.
yes we didn’t get a fair and honest hearing..just a shut up and sit down or the FBI will send you to the gulag..paraphrased. Lin Wood seemed a bit off his rocker to me, I prefer hard evidence but the American people didn’t get their day in court. I didn’t actually watch when congress reconvened Jan 6/7, the breach accomplished nothing except an excuse to put it all behind us. I’m not satisfied but am hopeful for better things going forward (I hope) Having the main stream media keep saying..They want to overturn the election and there is no evidence is frustrating, to say the least.
So why is it that honest elections are important in Burma but not here.
Heh… I’m guessing this is a trial balloon and a way to send a message. Look at the very strange things going on in the world. Short selling has been going on by these hedge funds for a very long time. The government has been allowing it to happen because they are taking their cuts. From 0 to millions in their first terms! Do we really want to believe a group of Reddit kids got together to make this happen at random? Do we really think this response to election fraud, at this particular time, happened naturally?
Here’s what I know. What is happening in the US now is being watched CLOSELY by the rest of the world. And they know if the US fails, the world comes with it. Now the rest of the world is starting to look at their situations differently because they may not have the US to bail them out in the future.
LOL. Xiden talking about a coup somewhere else. The irony.
