I see a bad moon arisin' Think about what would happen if the election was overturned and handed to Trump. All them partiers from the other day would be back with pitchforks. Is Trump setting up for this? Funny thing, stores in Chicago are still putting up boards even though the election is over.

Been assumed since B.E. (before election) that thiswas the hope and intent that such a scenario would unfold and the country would burn. :: shrug ::

Either way invoking the IA is not going to go over well with about 1/2 the country, especially if they don't believe the fraud.
This reminds me of many conversations that I had with my children when they were young... they all usually end up with me stating the obvious... "You may not like what I say or do, at times, but remember this... I am NOT your friend. I am your DAD."

If you have never seen a stage being set, you are watching one now.

I turned on the teewee myself this AM (for the first time in a long time) expecting actionable news, and the Esper thing was a big dot.

Here it comes, I hope, in a better and cleaner way than I had or have any expectation of actually seeing. Hold onto your butts ...

ETA - I will still be confirming zeros today however. More so, now.

He make it to your book of good uns?

The office, not the man. I was there when the office was established. This one was in the Q Course when I was still at JFK, along with a few hundred other students :D. But I didn't know him. I have friends who crossed paths with him later, in A'stan, thuough.
He was sure LOOKING good in A'stan, but I know nothin' bout the office nor the man's actual career. yet.

Well, election fraud, treason, sedition, and a whole host of other things that make a man worthy of execution don’t go down so well with the other half of the country.

And if there’s strong evidence of fraud, treason, etc (and I think we all know there is) arrest, and try them by a military tribunal in an undisclosed location then disappeared!

That exactly what theyd do to you, your family, friends, and POTUS...don’t doubt this!

Can you tell us slow kids in back any more...

Thinking out loud here...

Counterterrorism background, eh? I was accused of being a recruiter for Blackwater once, by someone they would have loved to have on board.

I know the sort of people they want. They operate outside of the box as a rule of life.

Beers are on me, lads. Accidents happen to bad people too. /winky-face/

Wonder if he has the balls to roll down through the General Staff like a threshing machine, to make it sure that they will be obeying VALID orders from WHEREVER they may originate?

we can HOPE and PRAY . . . the wages of NOT having done so earlier now come due

"When you strike at a king, you must kill him." (Emerson)

Now we get to see the riposte (fancy fencing term there) for this blatant Demoncrat attempt to strike not only at a leader but at the heart and soul of the nation. I have said before this is for all the marbles. Make no mistake, we are now involved in what may turn into an all out war if the adults do not control it properly.

IMO the Insurrection Act is now staged, but there has to be a reliable military chain of command in place for orders to be executed. This event will get the attention of all of DoD. It may stiffen their resolve to oppose DJT as much as possible as to cow them into submission however. A wise leader only allows generals to think they are important, not to actually assume importance beyond their station. US generals have been out of control for decades and the rot extends deep in the ranks.

This was a clear sign to me that DJT is not going to just roll over and take this fraud, but it will likely kick off a burn-it-down fight by the Demoncrats.

As to the Acting SecDef, most officers are basically placeholders. I have not seen or heard anything to indicate this one was anything other than that. The ambitious ones with their own plans are the scary ones. The ones to mark time are not scary. If this one understands where his bread is buttered, he will do the job like any good officer does - not make waves.

Giving this job to a former ASD/SOLIC tells me someone expects this to get down'n'dirty.

Those of us watching the miasma of insanity and violence in the cities this past year - have already been of the mindset that this was going to be the case.

We have yet to see whether or not there are enough actual adults in the nation to keep this from becoming an all-out bloodbath - but I have my doubts given the vast numbers of the population who hate this country, hate anyone who is not them, and the foreign hostiles that have been brought in here for such at time as this.

This didn't make your lip curl up just a little bit? A tiny, wee bit?
Nope don't do it... don't you smile. ;)

This too shall pass.
Just wondering -- if current Deep State generals and other high-ranking officers could be removed from their positions (and put where they can't conspire with the DS anymore), how would they be replaced? Would lower-ranking officers be moved up? Would many of the upper-level positions simply go unfilled for a while? What would happen?

Just restating the obvious...but Trump had no reason to do this unless he intends to remain in office. Particularly so if he believes that things might get spicy. I’m guessing he intends to finally act upon the running coup that has been in the works for over four years.

Gentlemen (and Ladies), prepare to defend yourselves.

I think anyone that didn't toe the line 100% is in the cross hairs. Seems like a frustration firing to me.
