Totally disagree. Up to this point it’s been obvious that all branches of military will do whatever they’re told to do. The real test lays ahead in the next six months when they will be asked to turn their weapons on Americans. They will, until they eventually turn the weapons on the fascists.
Just because they've been sent to pick up trash in Washington DC and guarding monuments doesn't mean commanders will follow illegal orders such as firing on peaceful crowds! We haven't seen that yet!
I'll just reply with "not yet." They took an oath to the constitution and so far have been following the authoritarian fascist orders and not their oath. NO NATIONAL MILITARY should be in the streets of any city/state. Are you a betting man Tom? Sadly when the order comes it will be open fire.
They WILL NOT FIRE ON PEACEFUL CROWDS! I'LL BET BANK ON THAT!
Let’s make it a $50 by January 1, 2026. PayPal transfer. Ok?
I respect all that want to defend democracy. Are you one of those who talk a talk, but don't walk the walk? As Jack Nicholson said in his statement in a " A Few Good Men"! I don't care what you think. Either grab a gun and defend democracy or you don't!
Then you'll see our next civil war. Which I know. Starts in Austin, Texas!
No. I don't want to take your money. You just heard that Trump lost in court again. The military won't prop him up despite Hegseth. They are trained and disciplined. They know the rules and won't violate them. Watch for commanders being ordered and resigning or being fired before that happens.
This is what I know. I, as an airman in the USAF, could not and would not disobey a direct order UNLESS it was illegal. Under the Uniform Code of Military Justice or UCMJ as we called it. You can not follow an illegal order! You can go to prison if you carry it out!
Our PROFESSIONAL military doesn't kill civilians. When they do. They go to prison.
That's correct. Let me ask you this? When have Trump supporters tried starting shit? When did protesters try to provoke them. I'd say only when citizens get involved. Like in Minneapolis, when a white boy with an AR-15 shot at protesters.
I've seen it before. This move is covered over and over again in great detail. What is a legal order like protecting life and property, and what is not legal like shooting unarmed civilians. You need to have a little more respect for those in uniform. They are currently being used as pawns.
The president has the power to order US troops to American cities and states to enforce martial law. Not as an aide to help ICE do their job. There is no declared or undeclared emergency that warrants their use at this time. I am a betting, man. If and when Trump gives an obvious illegal order 1/2
