There are numerous reports of the U.S. military engaging in recent political activity that has raised some eyebrows. Many are wondering what is going on…. and there’s likely an alarming reason. Considering the specific examples over the past few years, I would argue the Democrats are positioning for use of the military in violation of the Posse Comitatus Act -or- by an expressed act of congress.
Following the evidence to its logical conclusion is simple. The political apparatus of the DC state has framed a fraudulent narrative that “insurrection” against the federal government is an ongoing possibility.
Toward that end the U.S. military national guard troops have been sent to Washington DC indefinitely (current deployment extended through May).
If we consider there is a reasonable argument now surfacing about states choosing to nullify federal laws, it is not a stretch to see the insurrection narrative as a proactive assertion to support the deployment of active military against any state who would be non-compliant.
Would this violate the Posse Comitatus Act? Quite possibly, yes; it would depend on whether congress passed an expressed act authorizing military troops against specific state action.
When we consider that most of the constitutional checks and balances have been deconstructed or usurped by hardline leftist action; including the weaponization of the intelligence community, and specifically the FBI as a federal law enforcement agency; we are left to recognize that any Posse Comitatus violation would likely be supported by a leftist and aligned media arguing that the military is needed in order to stop a rebellion of states.
If our suspicions/predictions are correct, this would explain exactly why there has been a recent uptick in the visual politicization of the military; including empirical examples of emboldened U.S. military leadership openly engaged in domestic political advocacy against Tucker Carlson.
The marching of the U.S. military through the Capitol building to the offices of Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene would be another orchestrated optic sending the same political message.
These are not examples of the military “woke” community advancing political correctness, instead these are examples of advanced politicization of the military (in an open context) in preparation for domestic political use. The “insurrection narrative” is then considered a seed planted to blossom later in support of the overall agenda.
One of the data-points highlighting future intent was clearly visible and seemingly overlooked by almost all media. It happened when Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman first became a political whistle-blower against the office of President Trump.
It was not the details of the Vindman accusation that stood out, though that was the aspect the media focused on. What was more concerning was the lack of action by the Pentagon after Vindman compromised his position as an advisor to the commander in chief.
2019 – When we consider that Lt. Col. Vindman was carrying out what he believed to be his role; and when you overlay his military purpose; and when we accept Vindman was assisting CIA agent Eric Ciaramella in constructing his dossier to remove President Trump; and when we stand back and look at the aggregate interests involved, including Vindman’s divided loyalties toward a foreign power; and when we consider there was ZERO push-back from the ranks of military leadership, specifically the Joint Chiefs of Staff; and when you accept Vindman was simply allowed to return to his post inside the White House – where he remains today; well, the alarming aspect increases in direct proportion to the definition of the word: “coup”.
I would encourage all readers to think long and hard those factual data-points.
Despite his admitted usurpation of President Trump policy, Vindman was sent back to his post in the NSC with the full support of the United States Department of Defense.
The onus of action to remove Vindman from the NSC did not lay at the feet of the White House and National Security advisor Robert O’Brien; upon whose action the removal of Vindman could be positioned as political. The necessary obligation to remove Lt. Col Vindman resides purposefully with the Dept. of Defense.
The Pentagon could easily withdraw Vindman from his position at the National Security Council; yet, it does not…. and it has not. WHY?
There is a code within the military whereby you never put your leadership into a position of compromise; ie. “never compromise your leadership”.
In this example, President Trump cannot remove Vindman from the White House NSC advisory group due to political ramifications and appearances… The Joint Chiefs certainly recognize this issue; it is the very type of compromise they are trained to remove. Yet they do nothing to remove the compromise. They do nothing to assist.
Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman was the majority (#1) source for the material CIA operative Eric Ciaramella used in a collaborative effort to remove President Trump from office. Let me make this implication crystal clear:
The United States Military appears to be collaborating with the CIA to remove a U.S. President from office.
The Pentagon has done nothing, absolutely nothing, to countermand this implication. The Secretary of Defense has done nothing to remove the conflict that Vindman represents within the National Security Council. The Joint Chiefs of Staff have done nothing, absolutely nothing, to diminish the appearance of an agenda toward the removal of President Trump.
This is not a complex issue.
No-one in the foreign policy group is going to take any advice or opinion from Vindman. No-one is going to allow him to engage in material of a sensitive or confidential nature. Lt. Col. Vindman has compromised himself; and therefore eliminated any usefulness to his prior assignment. Yet his command does nothing? (more)
That was the alarming lack of action from the Pentagon everyone seemed to overlook. Why did senior military leadership not remove Vindman from his post at the White House once he clearly compromised his ability to carry out his duty? Their lack of action was stunning when you consider their primary obligation.
Fast forward to 2021 and now a very political military officer, General Russel Honore’, is appointed by Nancy Pelosi to be in charge of the military deployment around Washington DC. When you consider the political ramifications of the military supporting a false narrative, this is more than just another data-point.
The increased frequency of the military being politicized is what leads me to believe this phase is all just a public relations pre-positioning. I fully expect to see the standing U.S. military deployed against any state who stands up against unconstitutional federal demands… the likely origination point will be federal COVID mandates.
The leftists are weaponizing COVID mandates for a political agenda. It is only a matter of time before states start to rebel against federal COVID demands. That, in my opinion, will be the inflection point. That will be when the U.S. military is held as a compliance activation against any rebellious state. It could be another issue that activates this triggering of the military (ex. state election laws), but as it stands right now federal COVID compliance seems the most likely trigger.
Bottom line… The American electorate are being positioned to accept deployment of the U.S. military against U.S. citizens, under the guise of insurrection and/or a public threat. That is why we are seeing so much willful politicization of the military.
If you live in a region or state that values individual liberty and/or freedom, you are likely in a location that leftists consider a risk to their ability to execute their agenda. You are likely right now being defined as a ‘dissident’, or possibly a “domestic terrorist.” As a result, get ready to see this type of activity in your neighborhood.
The military is fast becoming the enemy.
Capitol Security Report Suggests Creation of Perpetual ‘Quick Reaction Force’ for the Capitol Region
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2021/03/08/capitol-security-report-suggests-creation-of-perpetual-quick-reaction-force-for-the-capitol-region/
The task force, led by Army Lt. Gen. (Ret.) Russel L. Honoré, released a report on Monday that said it recommended a “robust, dedicated” QRF that could deploy to the Capitol to assist Capitol Police and that could be staffed, among other sources, by members of the military.
That’s not good.
Maybe the Blue Helmets will save us.
Oct 23, 1983 241 dead Marines
Let a blue helmet set foot on U.S. soil, “They came in peace” and aren’t forgetting anytime soon!
And to stay on topic, Doesn’t The District of Columbia already have a reactionary force or two, possibly three based right in their backyard. Yuppers daydo
Of course they will be specifically forbidden to move against BLM or Antifa.
To your point:

A praetorian guard to protect the uniparty.
It appears the military is telegraphing their plans.
Over the last few years (at least since Obama’s last term), whenever I would comment on a chat or comment board that we should not rely on the military being with us–WE the People–I would be excoriated. Even when I used anecdotal examples and troubling trends, commenters would label me as a heretic and blasphemer.
Appears I was right all along–but I’m not holding my breath waiting for apologies.
Nimrodman if I am not mistaken Lt. Gen.(Ret.) Honore was the military commander in New Orleans during the Katrina aftermath.
Wouldn’t be the first time the military attacked US citizens. The Bonus War in 1932 pitted the US Army led by iconic heroes Douglas MacArthur, George Patton, and future President Dwight D. Eisenhower against 17,000 WWI veterans and their families in DC. It was no contest as the Army put down the “insurrection.” Of course, Obama raised the stakes by his targeted killing of an American in Yemen with a drone missile attack. Extrajudicial seems to be an accepted norm now, so I doubt Posse Comitatus or any other law will stop the government from eliminating with extreme prejudice those who dissent.
Bonus War encampment around White House.
You Sir, are Flagged as troublemaker for knowing your history !!
Off to the camps you go , with Montag , Winston , and Harry Tuttle.
Dwight D. Eisenhower was mounted in the officer corps commanded by Douglas MacArthur in the action that dispersed the Bonus Warriors. Hell on horseback.
They had to swear they wouldn’t support “extremism” and the racist training is back in place and we can expect trannies to be recruited as Obama did etc.. Biden will destroy the military. The ones left will shoot us – no question about that. Those are the people he wants to keep and have other develop that mindset.
About 30 years ago, I attended a meeting of the then newly formed League of the South. The group intended to work for the maintenance of our Southern Heritage and to work for the eventual secession of the Southern states from the Union.
My family has lived in what is NC for over 350 years. I am a proud Southerner and am proud of both the heroic and infamous members of my family.
But after 1 meeting, I knew the goals of the group were doomed. Why? Because you will never achieve a peaceful leaving of the US by any state once people realize that should their state leave, that its citizens will lose their social security and medicare benefits.
Sorry, people have become far too dependent on the government, especially during the old age.
Simply will not happen as laudable and honorable as it would be. Other solutions must be found, unless folks just want to tilt at windmills.
Unfortunately.
That is a very interesting point…I have several friends who live in the South and they have very proudly told me that the “good ol’ boys” in their area will never allow the Feds to dictate to them how to live their lives!! But, if it means their Social Security and Medicare are no longer coming in every month,or the Federal contracts that pay their bills are stopped, I can only think of one – maybe two – of them who would not immediately roll over and do whatever they are told!
And what will happen with the millions of people in those states when they find out that they will no longer get Welfare, SSI Disability, Medicaid, EITC (which is a HUGE deal to illegals, because they can claim it even if they don’t have a valid SS#)etc…will they all rush to the Northern States and overwhelm them?
No doubt some will be led around by money, some will not. Tricky though, target old folks who have families and .gov not only pisses off grandpa but also the whole family. Target those who have no one and those have little to nothing to lose.
Also, old folks, I’m part of that group, we saw a lot of violence in our youth, many of us anyway, it was more normal back then, and plenty of us saw war service in Korea and Vietnam depending on age. Also, old folks are easily dismissed as over the hill, infirm, not an exigent threat, forgettable. That perception can bookend on a lifetime of social skills, job and life experience and mental resilience, making old people, while of course not as physically apt in general as most young folks, a quite stealthy and formidable fighting force.
If you want a group for suicide missions, something our military is very familiar with and we got a taste of on 9/11, that’s the group. Myself, I had a fair amount of Vietnam vets who were customers and farmed for living, I wouldn’t want them as enemies. I don’t care how old they are. They can do some nasty stuff and the average person wouldn’t even notice them until it was far too late.
As far as ‘traveling’, the enemy will find out what happens when it happens. Doolittle didn’t ring up Hirohito to tell him his cities were going to get bombed. That’s not how war works. It’ll go down as it goes down when it goes down. Hopefully never. Covid killed off a lot of old folks but there’s still plenty out there and still millions of war vets among them, far more than any active duty military. My advice? Active duty and guard should get their families to safe locations. Do it now. Nothing is off the table. Nothing.
I hope .gov backs off on the military solution and doesn’t go full potato on economic punishment and more biological warfare. Just don’t do it.
Oh I agree that there are a lot of older folks who are fed up to HERE with seeing their country invaded and their families and businesses destroyed. And as you pointed out, they figure they may not have much time left so they may as well go out fighting!
I pray it doesn’t come to that… but as Solzenitzyn points out, “You only have power over people so long as you don’t take everything away from them. But when you’ve robbed a man of everything, he’s no longer in your power – he’s free again.”
When you lose everything and have nothing more to lose, you LOSE it!!!
…full potato? Man, that’s going into my lexicon, toot effin sweet…laffin out loud in the most serious way…
I served 20 years on active duty. When I first enlisted, and every time I reenlisted, I took an oath to “support and defend the U.S. against all enemies, foreign and domestic…”
I never abrogated that oath. I also kept my sword. Didn’t turn it into no plowshare, neither.
The USA became a different country in the Depression with the coming of the New Deal/ welfare state. Drastic change will only come after the funding of the welfare state collapses. Cloward and Piven, but they might not like the society that will follow.
Who know how long this can go on, but a government can’t create ever increasing amounts of money just out of nothing. With never a recogning. When the faith leaves it all ends.
These stimulus bills keep coming to get people used to a Basic Universal Income.
We are up to 30 trillion in debt and they need MORE money for another “stimulus”.
Don’t look to closely at what they put in the reconciliation bill…. you could have a heart attack.
They are having their own insurrection against us.
Two Gs in 12 months ain’t much of an income
You’re just counting the”stimulus payments”. If you’re unemployed, it’s $1200/month from the feds, plus whatever you get from your state.
“Sorry, people have become far too dependent on the government, especially during the old age.”
You’ve nailed it.
Compliance through dependence has neutered the USA.
Most people want a straight and level life…..will they accept control of freedoms they don’t use like free speech in return for that? Of course.
The most cunning part of the op is that companies now fire people for not agreeing with the govt narrative. The left have enlisted corporations to enforce compliance.
Hats off to them, brilliant, it’s working very well..
Maybe the answer is Irish Democracy.
In my opinion whatever else happens we must remain the United States.
Otherwise it all unravels — which will probably happen anyway.
But once a state isolates it makes it that much easier for the federales to starve it, de-grid it and militarily attack it as a hostile foreign entity on American soil.
Sure it sounds crazy but communists could come up with any rationale.
The feral goobermint wouldn’t have to do much with so many corporations already lined up to do their bidding.
“Starve it” for what? Plenty of southern and flyover states can and do grow food for the rest of the country and the world. States like NY, etc. simply don’t produce anything we need or can’t live without.
Secondly, the southern gulf states have the oil and gas industry. If anybody starves, it would be the states who cannot produce their own food and energy. And THIS is exactly why the feds would use the military against red states who try to secede. They need our resources. All wars and conflicts are about resources when get down to the heart of them.
Uh, no.
How can something long past being unified be United? We either become and enforce the republic stated in our founding documents or we fragment. This is literally no different than what happened to the Soviet Union. It’s just happening over centuries instead of decades. States previously existed under British rule that were formed into a union via rebellion. Others were added from territories acquired and converted to this nation’s ways of doing things. The evolved government no longer serves the purpose of its founding as a portion of the people in the states that form the union no longer honor the founding documents. The federal government and leaders do not have the guts to put down the insurrection of evil, so there is no choice but to leave the “union” and rebuild a motherland as the Russians did with the fall of the Soviet Union.
That would be the heartland and south including Texas for the less informed. Once isolated into their leftist shizholes they will fail. So either the Convention of States happens or secession in some form has to.

What is complicated? SS is paid for by current contributions. It is not a savings plan. The surpluses are effectively stolen by inserting interest bearing IOU’s. The money “borrowed” will need to be paid back with new debt or taxes.
Your contributions is only used as a measure to pay you upon filing for benefits. States taking over SS would immediately be cash positive by charging the same employer/employee rates.
“It would be complicated as the state that leaves would have to fund all the pervious fed entitlements”
Not so complicated
The State just takes over those functions, to be paid for in State taxes
Citizens are directed to no longer pay Federal income taxes, pay to the State instead
Same with commercial or transport taxes, FICA, social security and medicare taxes …. the State intervenes in those and takes over the proceeds that would formerly go to the Feds
There’d be a haircut – State finances can only reach a level funded by real productivity
The State can’t print fake money like the Feds can
Unless – did someone say “Confederate currency”?
[don’t take me seriously, I’m just riffing off the top of my head]
In TEXAS we don’t have a state income tax.
So just mail your check to TEXAS instead of the i.r.s.
Done!
#TEXIT
There are other ways to hobble bad stuff. A kinder and gentler way.
Let’s talk with our young people when they are home on leave. Discuss a few scenarios. Perhaps they might say to the illegal orders, “yes, sir!!”
Then kinda sorta accidentally might become lost on the way to the mission. Took a wrong turn on the way to the FL Governor’s mansion and got stuck in that muddy swamp. Lost for days. Maybe weeks. It happens. Lengthy list of MIA. We pray for their safe return to base.
Or everyone in the unit “comes down with the flu”, or amazingly, maybe all the vehicles were not properly maintained and won’t run. Shoulda checked that oil! Transmissions can be finicky gosh darn it. Oops, the whole convoy ran out of gas. How’d that happen?
The mechanics might find nothing can be fixed very soon, just gonna take a long, long time to ever get any vehicles out.
All kinds of things might go wrong on a complicated military mission. No guarantee of success. Always very risky.
Might just go all SNAFU and become so FUBAR that its a total cluster.
But in the end, no one got hurt.
Good info SD. Also, I noticed the rhetoric used the last couple of months where ” veterans and former police” are deemed the MAGA ” type ” and sunlight put between active service members/ police and those that have left the service/retired. Another ” seed ” for later use. Throw in some red-state nonsense, and ” othering ” is the product. This crap is CCP stuff from the 60’s. It also proves, the left, and Democrats are desperate. These are not actions of a group secure in their power.
They actually are the actions of a group secure in their power. Supreme power of all institutions and now the military. They are flexing.
Exactly. Understandably it is comforting to believe they are ‘scared’ and ‘desperate’ when actually they are confidently ramping up.
There is none opposing them and they know it.
And they are just getting started.
We ain’t seen nothin‘ yet.
I showed my husband the video of the 65 year old woman in Texas who was thrown to the ground and arrest by the cop because she was not wearing a mask in a bank.
I was appalled at the cops almost eagerness to “take down” this woman who was probably old enough to be his mother for doing nothing more “illegal than not wearing a mask.
My husband remarked on the “type” of personality that seems to be among a lot of younger police.
An over eagerness to push people around.
I know that police departments have “psych tests” that supposedly they give to keep the real creeps out but also know what my husband is referring to when he talks about the weird mentality among some, not all members of the police.
This Galveston cop seems to go into some kind of weird over drive all of a sudden, saying “now you have done it”, pushing her down, laying on top of her, yanking her arms behind her and slapping the handcuffs on her like she was a 19 year old drug dealer about to make a run for it.
One creepy cop in over drive is bad enough wait until we have hand pick military trained and outfitted hot shots ready to scream ” now you have done it” and then let loose the power that is give to them on us.
Like you said JustDoItNow, we ain’t seen nuthin yet.
“…wait until we have hand pick military trained and outfitted hot shots …”
Hell, wait until we’ve got antifa and BLM applying for police jobs
Who do you think is going to apply for those positions laid empty by disillusioned attrition and “defund the police” movements like in Portland and can’t-breathe-guy land?
Who do you think is going to staff these “community policing” gestapos that’ll be created?
Who took over policing in the Republic of Chaz?
We’ve seen this movie before
Great comments Nim!
And from our southern border there is renewed concern for “Community control” via Mexican Cartels and MS13
Well Chloe, I don’t know if you saw or read about the London Cops assaulting protesting women at the weekend?
The easy going British Bobby is long gone.
What you describe has been true for awhile in some of the Blue States like NY.
The young men who are cops in the state police and sheriffs departments are more likely than not to be bullies. Uneducated ones at that.
“Roid Rage.”
So many of these cops are muscle bound steroid abusing tatted up “skinheads” just looking for a reason to abuse someone, even an elderly lady.
Ever watch Dan Abrams LIVE PD?
You had LIVE nightly 4th amendment violations out the ying yang because the COP thought he smelled “reefer” across three lanes of traffic through rolled up windows on a cold rainy night in South Carolina or other states.
I agree. They are daring us to try something. They want us to “try something.” Just like they are appalled at things like “racist comments” on walls at a university and blame the “white supremacists”…and we find out they were put there by a black person. They have become very good at doing crap and blaming the other side.
This “insurrection” is a gift that keeps on giving. They have painted their target through lies, arrests and intimidation, as BLM/Antifa lead the way literally into the Capitol building. Leading the lambs to slaughter. Can’t have the National Guard around the building as requested by the Capitol Police Chief or as wanted by President Trump, but now? Each day there is a new outrage, if not several. How can anyone keep up with all of the crap being flung at the wall? If we had mainstream media who cared about the future of the country, that would help. Pray.
Nothing against the State, nothing outside the State. Mussolini’s stark description of fascism. It’s here.
I’m old enough to remember the worthless swine in Urkel’s administration naming returning war veterans as domestic terrorists.
FUBAR!!
This is what the DOD and pentagon are made of and the everyday enlisted will not obey and they will flock away from all branches.
The main reason for enlistment will be govt-funded sex change therapy.
They may flock away but until then they will follow orders.
I know there are many Patriots within the military. It is time for YOU to stand up now. We all hoped your commanders would do right following the coup… but they did not. Time for you to do right by the constitution.
The people have your back. It needs to be big it needs to be bold.
Just sayin’.
PS Sundance – you better be deleting your user comment ip fields on a regular basis. Plus it is time to drop the Google analytics tracking code.
They won’t, they are trained to obey orders. Look at cops arresting old women all because of a mask. Obeying orders.
All the military will follow orders always.
I think you are right Local Treeper if it is not already too late.
Oh yeah! Sure hope the cyber security at the Tree House is super strong because I wouldn’t want the wrong people to find out who the commentators are.
Everything we say will be held against us!
I’m not 100% certain, but I thought Bush the Youngest pushed through a change to the Posse Comitatus Act after Hurricane Katrina such that a declaration of an emergency by POTUS was sufficient to authorize deployment. The reason it stuck with me all these years is the term “emergency” was not defined.
The stated intent was to avoid the communication problems between a governor (in Katrina case, LA) and POTUS, which pretty much embarrassed Bubba.
Point being, if that’s the case, it’s no longer a violation.
During the church committee,Bush sr defended the forbidden use of the cia against US citizens.
Later, he got PRESIDENT REAGAN to sign E.O.12.333
Giving broad powers to spy on U.S. citizens deemed
“a foreign agent” by the president or the A.G.(without proof)
Also changing the oversight from Congress to 3 people working for the president.
(Remember acting a.g. yates telling the I.G. nope. Not allowed when asked for access to classified materials.)
After 911 w quickly got the patriot act passed. Setting up the fisa court. Even though they have already interpreted E.O.12.333 to allow it anyway. The fisa court was a scam to get support for the patriot act.
Add the M.O.U.’s with the fib. The purging of the institutional memory of the military, the
STOLEN ELECTION !
F.t. Pelosi, bite me being controlled by the laptop from hell.
This is not going to end well for our country!
That sums it up,pretty good.
In the interest of accuracy:
G.W. Bush had the documents drawn and ready for L.A gov to approve the use of National Guard 27 hours before Katrina made landfall.
Disclaimer: I am not a G.W.B fan, just like accuracy.
Appointing LTG (Ret) Russel L. Honoré to plan for the Capital District security is another step in establishing a militarized one-party rule. The Quick Reaction Force (QRF) may appear to be a judicious step, however, it is just one step away from the rapid expanse of US based units to ensure domestic tranquility. There will no doubt be a need to counter domestic terrorism (as defined by the Democrats) using forces better equipped than regular law enforcement; this will be the method used to circumvent normal military processes engaging in civilian repression. Perhaps they’ll come up with a special designation for these units, such as, “Peacekeepers;” yeah, that’s the ticket.
Perhaps they’ll come up with a special designation for these units, such as, “Peacekeepers;”
‘Quick Reaction Force’ is already taken, see my comment near top of the thread
I gotta wonder about all the sheriffs and LEO’s in the red states. Would they stand against the military? Would other red states help them? Would Biden haul in China military to help the democrats?
If you’ve been paying attention you’ll know the answer is NO.
Them sheriffs will be outgunned, outflanked, and overwhelmed with vastly superior numbers and firepower (up to and including Apache helicopter gunships)
They’ll be mobbed
It’s called tactics
Oh Nim, never underestimate a pissed off American with nothing to loose. Apache’s were designed for open field warfare, taking one down in a suburban or rural setting isn’t all that hard. They also rely a bit to heavy on com/targ signals that are easily jammed, and that’s across the board. Never forget who designs this stuff, us lowly civies.
It seems like any small foreign object in the jet intake would be problematic.
Maybe “Praetorian Guard”
Any military command, like bureaucracy, wants to expand their kingdom.
I imagine it wouldn’t take much to suddenly have designated QRF in every major city.
“….the likely origination point will be federal COVID mandates.”
The NG has already been instituted to help with covid vaccine administration programs. Why cant the local pharmacy’s perform that function as they do with the flu shots? I served my country with honor, but now its becoming difficult to call myself a veteran….
Ugly times ahead.
Could someone post a link to the Cruz tweet? Ill send that to my waste of space repub congress types, and get myself put on “the list”.
EXACTLY. The private sector venues like CVS, Walgreens, etc. are way more effective than ANY federal agency.
The Military is not fast becoming the enemy. Democrats are the enemy don’t forget that. J.C.
A military loyal to team joebama isnt your friend. Remember, the military is on a 60 day stand down two weed out “extremists”. Whatever the hell that means.
“white guys” is what that means
see also: “patriots”
The US military just went into Syrian war and is aligned with ISIS and Al Qaeda.
WRONG. Military leadership at the highest echelon is supporting the overthrow of the United States Government, and has expressed willingness to use force to maintain that overthrow. “Use force” means “kill anyone deemed hostile to the overthrow”.
DON’T FORGET THAT.
clear and concise
good job, Boots
OH Oh Oh (hand raised)….can we fight back?
People will fight back when this happens “kill anyone deemed hostile to the overthrow”. At that point I would not expect the civilian and military leadership and their families, not to be killed.
What I am expecting to see:
The only way left to correct this problem, short of another civil war is to eliminate the source(s). If I were the Joint Chiefs of Staff, I would not travel without a massive body guard and that includes their families.
Their involvement in this corruption will become common knowledge. They have made a tremendous mistake.
Where is the Republican Party on all this? Imagine if all Republican elected officials signed a joint declaration of repudiation declaring any military personnel or employees who act against law biding citizens will be designated as traitors and dishonorably discharged from military service. It would draw a line in the ground and force this issue into direct public view. And yet, to even state this is to admit it is absurd to think that the Republican party would act like this.
Same place they were when the 2020 election was being stolen: aiding and abetting.
Getting out of the way so Ds can do what they need to do. They will contact you when they need money and votes
Good one!
THEY HAVE ALL BEEN COMPROMISED!
PRESIDENT TRUMP wasn’t the first politician framed.
And he won’t be the last.
Kevin and some of the others were down on the border today.
I saw Kevin down there last week, talking to the camera about how they were trying to figure out what they could do to improve the situation
I shouted at the TV:
“You frikken idiots could have frikken supported President Trump when it frikken mattered, you frikken nimrods !!!”
We keep forgetting that the GOP is just the other wing of the same party.
With few exceptions such. MTG there is no resistance.
“. . . ‘dissident’, or possibly a “domestic terrorist.””
Or, possibly most ‘dangerous’ of all, a ‘White Supremacist’ [sic] — if not all three.

His family made hussein look the fool. Thin skinned hussein wants payback.
Pitting the citizens against their defenders – the military, sets the stage for the CCP military to walk right in.
This is dangerous as all hell.
Are there no patriots left in the military? If any military actions are triggered against any red state nullifying unconstitutional edicts from DC, those patriots better damn fast stop and put down their commanders ordering them against citizens. Rank and file military who put down unconstitutional orders and arrest leaders pushing them will have my full support.
“Are there no patriots left in the military?”
I believe “the military” just concluded a week-long stand-down exercise to weed any patriots out
Think I read that somewhere …
I thought that occurred with the DC guards back in January.
SJW Austin ordered it military-wide.
More than National Guard

Ordered by Defense Secretary, here’s a Feb 3 article on the order being given, I don’t know the duration of the process and when it ended

Ahhhh, but they’re not looking to root out ALL kinds of ‘extremism’ – only some kinds

60 days
thx for that detail
reassuring that nothing’s happening conflict-wise in the world that the US military can “stand down” 60 days for some sensitivity training
doh – wait – Syria
lol, they can’t return fire.
Speaking of Vindman, he penned an article on lawfareblog today.
Can Litigation Help Deradicalize Right-Wing Media?
https://www.lawfareblog.com/can-litigation-help-deradicalize-right-wing-media
That’s pretty funny, because last time I checked there was no such thing, just wall to wall left wing indoctrination. Oh that Fatty Vindman he’s a character.
For a second I considered re-re-re-re-reposting my sitting on hands “Still The Problem” meme, but figured, what’s the point anymore ?
Fauci FRAUDster MUST be outed!!! ??
This may be long BUT worth hearing.
~If nothing else, listen to the first 10 minutes and then skip to about the 27 minute mark to the end.
We have been sooooo scammed. ??

Tucker Carlson has on an ex-Colonel Doug McGregor to talk about the military lowering fitness standards to “increase diversity”
Army had been using a gender-neutral fitness test (men and women scored the same) but – alas – half the women applicants FAILED
Also, they’re targeting “aptitude-test barriers” to “diversity” for the chopping block
I’ll let all y’all figure out that that’s about
I don’t think I need to spell it out, but just ask the Realtor to show you the areas with “good schools”
… hard to mount a viable army if too many prospective recruits’ aptitude tests score their highest achievable aptitude as “peeling potatoes”
Articles about that were posted on both gateway pundit and epoch times.
And the Daily Caller:
https://dailycaller.com/2021/03/15/overwhelming-failure-rate-women-army-rethink-gender-neutral-fitness-standards/
Thanks, GB
I was only listening with one ear while reading Treehouse, but I think McGregor was expressing some concern about how deep and capable our military will be if we get into a REAL war – a bigger one than the relatively small skirmishes we’ve gotten involved in trying to placate or “fix” foreign countries that past couple decades
I’ll go look for those articles
Yes I’d also be concerned.
Maybe that’s exactly what the Globalist Cabal has directed its puppets in the US Deep State to do.
It wouldn’t be too far fetched to believe that the Ozero-led Communists have purged the military from leaders who built a superior red blooded testosterone driven fighting force that could defeat any enemy, and in their place installed Leftwing indoctrinated leaders who are transitioning our military into an estrogen filled, semi-neutered army of obedient drones who can easily coerce domestic civilians and have the technology to defeat domestic patriot- minded gun toting individualists, but be too submissive and weak to put down an invading force of brutally aggressive Chinese.
A rather disturbing thought….
I think an army is an expression of society, as so many things are. Why would our weak, effeminate, silly, shallow, globalist leaders want an army of red blooded men who can defend an America they hate?
One of the greatest and most wonderful blessings of my life is my husband, and he is strong, resilient, resolute, and has proven time and again that he’s okay with being the one man in the crowd who does not go along with whatever the crowd goes along with. In order to defeat this man you really would have to kill him, and you’d better watch the body for awhile to be sure.
I am desolate that my granddaughters probably will never even meet a man like that, let alone find one to marry.
Menagerie, if your children feel loved by you, and I’ve no doubt that they do, they undoubtedly picked up many of your values and sensibilities. As such, their daughters will inherit many of those same values, and they will recognize good hearted independent thinking men versus the dime-a-dozen soy boys being mass-produced by the soulless shallow culture we live within.
“The increased frequency of the military being politicized is what leads me to believe this phase is all just a public relations pre-positioning. I fully expect to see the standing U.S. military deployed against any state who stands up against unconstitutional federal demands… the likely origination point will be federal COVID mandates.”
Ah yes…. hiding a military training operation behind the skirts of COVID does seem to be a possible 1st option. A chance to test the citizen response waters, nail down operational processes, flush out legal battles, and gather a little on-ground intelligence…. Practice round in preparation for disarming citizens?
I’ve been thinking about wildcard scenarios lately and stumbled into an interesting topic late last night – “viral immune escape”. Will provide the link I found last night and also suggest that you explore further.

“Practice round in preparation for disarming citizens?”
That has already been done in or outside of NOLA in one or two places after hurricane Katrina.
Sorry, no links.
Any attempt to disarm the U.S. population will result in a domestic bloodbath at best, or an international act of war at worst, most likely both to be honest! They’ve managed all over the world to disarm (willing) western populations and there’s a damn good reason they haven’t managed it here yet. Today there are several rifles behind every blade of grass and countless handguns hidden in the weeds. It’s a logistical nightmare they don’t want to face, it would require the use of foreign troops on U.S. soil and it’s possible we might still out number them.
Those on the Metairie Ridge allowed themselves to be zip tied and sat on the curb while uniformed troops ransacked their houses and stole their firearms. Yeah. STOLE. The peaceful citizens NEVER got them back. I had family in Chalmette at the time. Their house was under 18 feet of water at one point.
“You don’t have to be responsible for the world you’re in.” – John von Neumann, to Richard Feynman.
We’re reaping the consequences of that attitude.
Brilliant men create powerful technology, without care for its stewardship. Then power-hungry, intellectual mediocrities see its obvious potential and harness it, to use it for their own gain and game.
These military traitors are idiot children with toys.
Anyone know if the DC Troops are receiving hazard duty combat pay? I would assume not, but one never knows. They were being food poisoned, so if nothing else that makes for hazard duty.
Don’t know about combat pay. A 26 y/o NY guardsman stationed in DC died of unknown causes.

I will sound the alarm on this again as I am a dog whistle in this narrative so it appears.
People need to start understanding the bigger picture than focusing on the minutia of what is going on.
Living in Hong Kong and what has transpired in the last 12 months especially as it pertains to the reforms to government is exactly what is happening in the US right now. I implore patriots to try to fully understand and grasp to accepting that the Democratic party in the USA is indeed the communist party and its being run by Beijing.
The most alarming part when discussing the military and the changes being made, is the fact that CENTCOM is now going to be joining Israeli INTEL and sharing of information. They (Israel) are also and have been in partnership with the Chinese Military. Why is this point so hard for people to accept as being fact? Our military and sovereignty as a nation should not come second to anyone including Israel.
It is my hope at some point that Sundance writes something that connects all the dots and focusing on the larger picture taking place. This is only one piece of the puzzle to a much larger sinister plan being executed in real time and the current changes to the military is one of them. This is about the take over of America and citizens are still aloof to the machinations taking place behind close doors. If the election of 2020 wasn’t enough then I don’t know what is.
I believe we have allowed our institutions (IC, FBI, Congress, Universities, etc.) to be infiltrated over time. I would agree that there is a bigger picture and plan. It has been a long term plan. I doubt dems are intelligent enough for this big picture planning. I would suspect China, Russia and Iran and other State players. Likely a global cabal. Dems are likely the implementers carrying out their orders.
Trump and deplorables scared the dickens out of them. Their plans have been expedited as a result. They are getting away with it.
Right now, everything is by way of China as the world not just the USA is moving towards a Totalitarian rule. They are getting away with it, because we are allowing it. China clearly stated that they think they are the rightful owners and have a claim to the USA due to having discovered America first. (Native American Indians were decedents of China) I kid you not, General Haotian actually said this in a speech to the communist party in 2014.
Everything else is just a distraction to generate confusion. Much easier to take over when people are overwhelmed with confusing distractions.
Thank you Alli! That is just it, many are too distracted with their creature comforts and media consumption.
citizens are still aloof to the machinations taking place behind close doors

True. Astounding to see how many people, even here, have blinders on. They’re sleepwalking into the American holocaust and won’t wake up until the cattle car doors close behind them.
REC 100X
“If we consider there is a reasonable argument now surfacing about states choosing to nullify federal laws, it is not a stretch to see the insurrection narrative as a proactive assertion to support the deployment of active military against any state who would be non-compliant.”
When a government wishes to deprive its citizens of freedom, and reduce them to slavery, it generally makes use of a standing army.
– Luther Martin, Maryland delegate to the Constitutional Convention
States that defy a mask mandate could be sealed off, at their borders, by the military. A public health emergency, obviously..
The quarantine would surely be breached, and drastic military action would follow. The mass confiscation of guns inside the rebellious State would be necessary. (That whole Beto thing, confiscate guns because guns are icky, was never tenable. This is.)
Totalitarians love uniforms because uniforms negate individuality. Mao had every Chinese in a uniform, and modern China is the archetype for the fascists who now rule us.
What’s a splendid shortcut for a uniform because it greatly reduces individual identity? That’s right, boys and girls, a face mask!
Remember AOC’s homespun video when she said itd be easier on everyone if we just wore uniforms?
drastic military action would follow.

I would hope all the NFA owners would be putting their tools to good use.
PLEASE! Seal the TEXAS border first.?
Don’t forget the “Pass The Buck Brigade”…

*cough* “rape scandals” *cough**cough**cough*
Targets……every damn one of em.
Not leftist – statists, elites, fascists/commies, Illuminati – The Swamp. 9/11, JFK…. Prescott Bush and Nazi ties, Aaron Russo on the Rockefeller’s, Roy Cohn and pedo rings, Bill Barr and Epstein ….. this is not an overnight thing – this is reality.
“What was more concerning was the lack of action by the Pentagon after Vindman compromised his position as an advisor to the commander in chief.”
This should have raised all kinds of alarms in Congress, with demands for explanations why no action was taken. Instead, our feckless Republicans pretty much ignored it. It was a means to an end they agreed with, and it didn’t pan out.
Republicans in Congress lost any credibility on keeping the military in check when they did not demand to know why Carter Ham was relieved. Even before that, when reports of politicization of intelligence was coming from Southern Command.
The cancer gets worse with Vindman, Republicans in Congress shrug, and now we have pawns being used as props in political stunts and military leadership openly attacking civilian press.
Cruz sending a demand letter to the Commandant means nothing. No other Republican politician is doing anything more than whimpering while our country goes right down the toilet.
It’s the last American institution not to have been run through by the Marxists. I mean we knew when they stopped the voting mid night on election that the criminals were in charge and now it’s just the formalization of the Communist takeover of USA. To see the US Military now engaged with their new Allies ISIS and Al Qaeda to overthrow a legitimate leader of an Arab country, well, the old USA we knew and loved, warts and all has left the building. Drug Cartels, Islamist terror groups, Communists and Fascists now have the conn.
Well said
It’s no longer the country I was raised in, and Joe Biden’s not my … you know … the thing
He ain’t anyone’s President.
Buckle up folks. You ain’t seen nothing yet!
Good thing the GOP leadership is right there with the serious tweet. What a joke.
Like they’re going to do anything about it. LOL.
a sternly-worded tweet
they don’t even need to send a sternly-worded letter anymore
They will get to each others bottom…
“A society becomes totalitarian when its structure becomes flagrantly artificial: that is when its ruling class has lost its function but succeeds in clinging to power by force or fraud.”George Orwell quote
I also read something, I thought it was Orwell: and once the fraud is exposed, they simply use force. I think that’s where we’re heading …. we know; they know we know.
Kevin McCarthy says: “@SecDef Austin — Blah blah blah blah. Blah blah blah blah blah.”
Take over the military. Disarm people. Sounds like things are moving in that direction
Ok that’s it! It’s time for Sean Hannity to bring in Lindsey Graham so can promise us to get to the bottom of it.
Us Republican voters waking up, and plan on destroying RINOs was a declaration of war. They are now positioning the military against us.
Lemme guess… “I can tell you this: we’re not going stand for it, Sean. I’m gonna write a letter to Defense Secretary Austin, and we’re gonna get to the bottom of this.”
Is that about right?
Damn scary post by Sundance.
Where or where are our so-called Republican Congress Critters?
Making sure they don’t lose their place at the trough of public taxpayers’ monies?
My hero Lindsey Graham will get to the bottom of it.
Unreal. Should have failed his fitness report and weeded out.
Yevgeny needs to return to where men are named Yevgeny. Just sayin’. #NotAmerican.
Vindman is a full blown traitor deserving courts martial and hanging.
That’s the “other” Vindman. Just as doughy, though.,
Mother, Mary and Joseph! This is getting out of control fast. My question is how many rank and file troops can be convinced that what they may be ordered to do is WRONG?
Your question starkly telegraphs you hold out hope the military will be on our side. That hope is false and misplaced.
Trump sure exposed the swamp. Now that they were exposed and we the people were organizing to disrupt the 2 party farce they have no option but to use the military to stops us. They can’t hide anymore so they go full blown police state.
It’s their power, their country. We better not get in the way.
As long as we buy into the Rs x Ds they can hide their 2 tier justice system.
They can keep this up, but I am not voting and giving any of them legitimacy. We can still destroy them. I have been unsubscribing from every GOP garbage. F*** them.
Stop spending money, let the system collapse. Sure it will hurt us. But living under communism without freedom is way worse.
Yeah, let’s keep playing by their rules while they disarm us and unleash the FBI, CIA, Police and Military against us.
See videos of old ladies being arrested for not wearing a mask, also moms in front of their terrorized children. This is not America anymore. Let’s be honest.
This is Pelosi, Obama’s Nation. They rule.
Of, let’s disrupt and screw them.
While bookended on your advice, this is more of a generalized opinion….
Redirect liquid asset allocation, coordinate and communicate with like-minded community and take money out of the globalist banking and corporate world. Plenty of us have been doing that for awhile now. If one doesn’t have electronically accessible assets, then they have to get physical and personal and that’s when targeted attacks can be set up. Remember, anyone not an ally is an enemy. They aren’t ‘our fellow countrymen’ anymore. They’re Commies, Nazis, Japs, Facists, pick your enemy of choice. All were members of the human race and we killed them all.
Once making a decision, it’s all-in. No dipping toes in the water. We’ve seen how that works out, nothing gets done and all we get is a parade of flag draped coffins. Those of us who lost friends or loved ones in Vietnam and other half-assed conflicts know that well.
Huge tool, Trump showed by example…. debt. Won’t take much to pop the debt bubble. Unlike those who advise being debt free, nah, I go totally opposite, pound their asses for as much as one can get and then go full potato on them. Nothing pisses bankers off more than ‘deadbeats’. Good! Emotion making decisions without the benefit of intellect is what we’re looking for. It’s a body count, nothing more or less. Who they are doesn’t matter. They’re enemies. The banking industry as a whole is a criminal enterprise for decades if not centuries. America is a debt-based economy. Use it. Remember, it’s not moral, legal, or pleasant. It’s ugly. That’s what war is. No halfway measures. All-in. Or, do what millions of our predecessors have done, sit on the sidelines while someone else fights. No indignity in that. Far likelier to survive too. That has value. It’s a choice.
We’ve seen the weaponization of systems and processes to politically target and persecute, we’ve seen first hand the corruption of the judicial system. It appears the prog is now targeting one of their own whose actions resulted in the deaths of thousands, and persecuting and prosecuting Trump supporters from the DC rally and protest while ignoring the riots in cities all around the country and destruction of federal property by their mercs. You think they won’t send those alphabet agencies and paid mercs for you or me? You bet they will. Our lives are meaningless to them. Get in the zone. Get used to it. This is real.
Joe Biden is senile. He is not calling the shots
Speaking of Vindman…
He is over at Lawfare Blog today suggesting that “right wing media” should be sued. He’s taking a mighty righteous victim’s tone. I had so hoped to have heard the last from him.

Obviously they are planning something or they wouldn’t be behind razor wire in a self constructed prison in DC. I think it was Otrauma that started allowing non-citizens join the military. I may be wrong about that, but I do know it was Otrauma who ordered the drone strikes on America citizens who supported the terrorists. I had mixed feelings about that even though they were enemies at that point. The way I saw it was some wet behind the ears kid on a military base in NM just looked at it as playing a video game. They will turn the military on us, they will drone us if necessary. They especially would most likely want to remove us older citizens who know history and our rights. Those of us who are SSI age no longer contribute. They need to get rid of us because we are a drain on the coffers and we remember America. That’s not conducive to their agenda. They need sheep not free thinking independent people.
I don’t believe “they” are preparing to turn the military on us, but I do believe they are very afraid if not terrified of something they do not want us to know about………and react to.
That is scary.
I don’t believe “they” are preparing to turn the military on us
—–
The military has established a defensive perimeter around the capital. The weapon racks are in place. The force commander Honre has called for establishing a QRF. The Joint Chiefs penned and signed a letter supporting the overthrow of the United States Government. And the United States Marine Corp used their Twitter account to publicly intimidate a conservative news host.
Believe your eyes, veteran. The military has already been turned against us.
Interesting.
I’d like to get my M14 back.
Scope not necessary.
Full auto not desirable.
The increasing pattern of intimidation appears to be designed to provoke violent confrontations, which they could then use to further justify deploying the military against the citizenry.
I suspect that the 2020 elections were the last elections in America.
They will announce that future elections will be suspended, “until stability returns and elections can be held safely.”
It only took Germany 4 years to go from a free constitutional republic to a totalitarian Nazi dictatorship.
“We are fast approaching the stage of the ultimate inversion: the stage where the government is free to do anything it pleases, while the citizens may act only by permission; which is the stage of the darkest periods of human history, the stage of rule by brute force.”
– Ayn Rand
Who will be their dictator? Neither the POTATUS nor the HO can speak or inspire. Mussolini and Hitler both were great orators and could spellbind the audiences with their rantings.
It first became apparent to me when Obama took armed apache helicopters from the Guard and swapped them out with the army for unarmed versions.
Jade Helm was practice for today.
Cruz, now that you are back from Mexico…. could you do SOMETHING about the border crisis in YOUR state?
Why not DO something about that?
Is Antifa replacing some of our military troops? Oath Keepers seem to think so.
I can assure you that there quite a few BLM types in the military, and wouldn’t be at all surprised by Antifa either.
why not?
they get training in fitness, tactics, and weaponry
Networking opportunities too, globally in many cases.
Zero brought Antifa leaders from Germany after all, embedded Ants stationed in Germany have a hell of an opportunity to get down mit der Vaterland.
You have to wonder what the rank and file of the military feel about this.
there’s that “rank and file” again
worked so well with the FBI, huh?
where’s that photo of them taking a knee again?
Well, my now 19 year old is not joining the Air Force, not when President Trump is not in office.
This is a communist takeover. They are the Gestapo, KGB, all agencies poison. Obama and his radical “transformation” of the United States. he had fired a lot of Top Brass and replaced them with to his liking. The Left has control of everything and their toxic ideology has poisoned all organizations, agencies, associations, corporations, and most of all, our education system, which breeds new marxists.
The military was the last to not fall but appears to have now. And what has been placed strategically at the top will trickle down. We’ve all seen what social justice nonsense they are teaching troops as well as what kind of soldier they are recruiting. Transgenders in the military, this is progress. Who would have ever thought. And now we all pay for their genital mutilations due to a mental identity disorder. Women should never be in combat or in a dangerous area. Look at that one woman soldier who was kidnapped, can’t remember her name but we all know her. And the mere fact that boys who think they’re girls are breaking women’s sports records and winning championships. Women are the weaker sex, period. and are a liability in combat. Enough of this nonsense.
I think McConnell is leaving not just because he doesn’t have any base support. But because he has become irrelevant and realizes it. Republican politicians should all realize it. The Democrats and the Progressive Left is going to bulldoze over all of them. I wonder if any of them have any regrets in letting the fraud stand. Was it really worth it? They should see now the country is going to be burnt down.
your last paragraph x 1,000
The military occupation possibilities presented by Sundance took me back to another place and another time. Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico, 1973-74.
I had lived there for several years. People were starting to demand the government represent all the people, not just the chosen few. The federal government responded by putting a soldier on every corner of every street, armed.
Then the random violence started. One evening I had gone to a movie downtown with some friends. When the movie was over, instead of standing out front waiting for a taxi, we walked up a block away from the crowd. Then a trash can at the corner where all the people were standing blew up. Killed several people, hurt a lot more.
A couple of weeks later I walked down to the Minerva traffic circle to get some cash out of the bank. About 5 minutes before I got there a bomb inside the bank went off.
Then my favorite restaurant received a threat that they were going to be hit. They shut down the whole place, posted a sign on the entrance that said closed because they were all on vacation and would open up again at a later date.
Not one word of this was ever reported on local news or reported in local papers. It was as though it never happened.
Then they began kidnapping Americans and holding them for $250,000 in ransom. I had a number of friends whose parents were in high government positions there. They told me in no uncertain terms that I had to go. They said there was no way they could protect me and I would be a target.
So I left.
I hope that’s not what’s coming soon to us.
I was 22 then. Way back then I thought I was immortal, so to speak. I absolutely loved living in Guadalajara. I just kept hoping it would all go away and stop. But thanks for questioning my sanity!
Thanks Patty.
Such all-too-likely-to-be local color reports are invaluable.
EVERYONE NEEDS TO READ THIS war game scenario by US Army Colonel Kevin Benson (Ret)of how the US military will put down a small town takeover by a “militia” inspired by “Tea Party goals”. That Benson chose a conservative American political party as the domestic enemy rather than Islamic jihadists or Antifa/BLM was a primal scream warning of exactly where military leadership stands. They are the Praetorian Guard of the oligarchy and thus, ENEMY OF THE CONSTITUTION.

After almost ten years of race-baiting and immigrant-bashing by right-wing demagogues, nearly one in five Americans reports being vehemently opposed to immigration, legal or illegal, and even U.S.-born nonwhites have become occasional targets for mobs of angry whites. In May 2016 an extremist militia motivated by the goals of the “tea party” movement takes over the government of Darlington, South Carolina.
The leaders of the group hold a press conference to invoke the Declaration of Independence and argue that the current form of the federal government is not deriving its “just powers from the consent of the governed” but is actually “destructive to these ends.” Therefore, they say, the people can alter or abolish the existing government and replace it with another that, in the words of the Declaration, “shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness.”
Upon receiving the alert for possible operations in Darlington, the Fifth Army staff begins the military decision making process with mission analysis and intelligence preparation of the battlefield.
And we are taxed to pay this POS’s retirement. Astounding. Taxation without representation, anyone? We are being fleeced to pay for our own funerals.
The fact that several US generals in the military have finally stopped pretending that they are non-partisan tells me that perhaps, it was a good idea for President Trump to not have declared martial law on a nationwide scale before his first term expired because these partisan US generals may actually be tempted by Nancy Pelosi to launch a military coup against President Trump in such a scenario.
He didn’t go military for that very reason, I’m certain of it.
Too many traitors.
I believe you are correct. Who was he supposed to trust? Getting out of that evil city was necessary. He got no recourse for justice from his own “Justice” Department. No hearing from the Supreme Court. No help from his own Party. Truth treated like fiction. Fiction treated like truth. Surrounded by jackals with no weapons left. Bless him for trying so hard to shine the light into the swamp while all of the critters and gators and bugs and snakes scurried off to form their team of evil. Obama is getting his much-wanted Revolution, while Dem voters and everyday citizens think all is just fine!
