"The Trump administration is evaluating plans that would establish a “Domestic Civil Disturbance Quick Reaction Force” composed of hundreds of National Guard troops tasked with rapidly deploying into American cities facing protests or other unrest..." www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
Ah geez. Not good.
Sounds like a “reaction force” for peaceful protests and a “no where to be seen force” for January 6 type events.
Sounds like stormtroopers to me.
And the reactionary force will be reacting to the goon theatric group to start the fireworks Kind of like Minneapolis suburbs ended having & someone’ coming in to firebomb an Autoparts store So we know DT is part of a criminal organization & for years laundered money .
1st amendment
This should terrify us.
Well stinky trump and his Republican party have now created their own Gestapo. RESIST.
Bullshit. The Republicans are trying to set it up so that they can steal more money. Stinky is creating chaos so people will forget he's a traitor, a child molester, a thief, and trying to destroy this country. He is a worthless person.
That's fascism.
All part of the plan for declaring martial law and ending elections.
Define “Civil unrest”. Peaceful protesters or Jan 6 violent protesters? Trump spent time in front of a TV happy about the violent Jan 6 protesters. And as a dictator-wannabe, trump will do as he pleases.
IOW, a way to criminalize protests
After seeing him take over control of DC, I am really scared that he is going to declare another national emergency next year, and postpone the mid-term elections. What could we do then??
What is the cost of all of this, in dollars, aside from our dignity, reputation, constitution, and international reputation?!
The military going from “thank you for your service” to “fuck off traitors”!
Are military personnel supposed to not obey orders that are not right?
#tRUMP is planning for the 2026 #Midterm #Election. Right now is a test. That night when he's watching the early returns & sees the #Democrats winning he'll deploy the #military to confiscate the #VotingMachines & #lie about it being something else. He told us this during #tRUMP1.0.
Civil unrest equals peaceful protest. In addition, it will allow Trump to kidnap and get rid of his “homegrown’s“.
Tonton Macoute is a much less cumbersome appellation, although, sacre Bleu!, those words are Haitian immigrants.
How would this not violate Posse Comitatus? If National Guard troops are federalized it applies to them. Otherwise, for them to remain unfederalized the state's governor has to consent to what the POTUS wants.
Interesting that this will in fact cause a number of protests for "justification".
"The original ending of "Little Shop of Horrors" (both the stage musical and the initial movie version) sees Seymour and Audrey being eaten by the giant, carnivorous plant, Audrey II, which then proceeds to take over the world." This is America now!! Suck us dry then eliminate us.
Ok the GOVERNOR OF MARYLAND has a lot of fight. I LOVE IT. We need to keep up the fight. Mark my words tomorrow he will be under investigation for some bullshit. He PUNKED FDT on national TV. So FDT has to get revenge.
Another KICK ASS SHOW with Gov of Maryland
Or facing dissent with the regime’s policies.
Fight Against Trump Takeover protest in Brandon, Vt. Small turnout, but powerful protesters with a similar theme; we don't want a criminal in the WH. Lots of positive support. Unfortunately, the opposition drove by with nasty hand signals, but I rose to the occasion and gave them the booty!
Trump is seeing how much cooperation he can get to establish a police state.Law enforcement personnel need to think about whether they will turn on American citizens in order to pacify Trump-a proven lawbreaker himself who has no respect for rule of law, the Constitution or citizens rights.
At what point will the National Guard and Marines, see they have been ordered to corral, arrest, and potentially harm their own innocent communities? This is not why they enlisted!
This is direct response to No Kings Day and Trump’s failed military parade. The broad left showed its power. I really wish they’d kept the pressure on week after week. It still needs to happen in massive numbers. You can’t wait for the midterms to save you. But it will be harder now.
Laying groundwork for dealing with mass protest when he tries to steal mid-terms and block the next election? Or when he leases Alaska to Putin and announces a joint Russia/US government?
Most dictatorships have such “reaction forces.”
Trump is declaring war on anyone who didn’t vote for him. This isn’t America anymore, this is the USSR.
Americans have a right to protest.
Trump needs the reaction force around the White House as there was a Felon on the roof the other day yelling
