Longtime Pentagon reporter Helene Cooper said that she can't find any military officials who attended the meeting in Virginia with President Donald Trump and Secretary Pete Hegseth and liked what they heard."I have yet to find a single military official who was in the audience today who thought tha...
The military may just have to step in and save us on this one guys. This administration is a direct threat to democracy and everyone who has provided material support for Project 2025 is a traitor.
The military isn’t going to step in and save us unless they feel strongly that the public will support them wholeheartedly, and they aren’t going to feel that way if there isn’t massive and unprecedented civil unrest. That means the onus is on us.
Consider the implication of a countries military denying the commands of the officials elected by the civilian population. The military is armed. That would completely destabilize the countries economy and it’s security on the world stage. The chain reaction of consequences is terrifying. It’s up to the people.
The military ain’t gonna “step in”. The only way that could possibly happen is if we have major and sustained civil demonstrations in our cities. Even then, it may take mass civilian casualties before the military intervenes.
You could very well be right, but without Congress acting on this lawlessness and with SCOTUS’s capitulation it leaves the military as the last organization that could step in to end this madness.
First, consider the war crimes this administration has ordered. Second, its continual attacks on the Constitution and the rule of law. Lastly, the outright treasonous Project 2025 this administration has given material support to. The military would be acting well within reason seizing control and ordering a new election.
Everyone who has given material support to Project 2025 should be held by military tribunal or ICC in order to ensure corruption is kept out of the proceedings. After this purge of the right, something we should have done long ago due to their spreading of hate and class warfare tactics, we can finally move on to an imperfect but functional future.
Call your local general.
Wish I knew one personally so I could get their honest take. Perspective is really valuable.
You can bet some of them are making “what if” plans.
