i’m just waiting for the formation of the ADA, the “ Illegal Immigrant Only Army” to stomp on regular Americans.

Let me be clear…. I fully expect to see the standing U.S. military deployed against any state who stands up against unconstitutional federal demands.

There are 1.4 million active duty military personnel. There are 10.4 million known gun owners in Texas. Not to mention, there are A LOT of military personnel that come from Texas, and they will likely defend Mom and Pop rather than fire upon them. So, good luck with that.

I think America’s Left and deep state seem to be caught in a race of trying taking over full dictatorial of the country before financial collapse breaks everything apart.

And a deep culling of the military. As the article mentions, the rank and file of the military do not lean to the left. I think they want to want to weed out some of the Right. You know, the majority of the military. But. They don’t look at the full picture and they suck at math.

“Additionally, thanks in large part to a purge during the Obama era, the majority of the flag officers are not in alignment with the rank and file.”
This is a fact. A fact too many Americans are totally unaware of. Obama sent out a questionnaire early in his first term to all 0-6’s and above. The questionnaire was mandatory and was designed to identify Constitutional Patriots in the senior officer ranks and to Purge Them. Which it did and he did. The message to all officers of lower ranks was received. If you want to advance in rank you’d better get your mind right.
President Trump, like nearly all Americans, was unaware of this and placed faith in senior officers based on his historical view of military officers and not the reality of the senior officers of today. Thus his surprise when the Generals he trusted betrayed him at every turn.
With one glaring exception. General Flynn. And, that exception was targeted by the Deep State for total destruction.

I don’t think this writer has paid attention to the last year. No armed persuasion is necessary. 2020 demonstrated that no crime or restriction on liberty will get a serious pushback. Many will complain online, but that is the full extent of what modern Americans are willing to do to defend their freedoms.

There are not enough men is the US military to pacify a rebellious people in America.

It’s a 10 million man job. 7x24x365.

Because there are at least 300 million private arms in the country and at least 1 million obscure patriots that would resist.

We spent 5 years trying to pacify Iraq, and far longer in Afghanistan. Against far fewer rebels.

And still could not do it.

The sequence will be stacking the SCOTUS first. 2A will be reinterpreted....then the gun grab, even for 2A sanctuary states.

I was telling a whole houseful of immigrant latinos that the USA is gone, and there will never be another GOP president, because too many people would go to prison.

They didn’t argue. They recognize the pattern of Venezuela, Cuba, Nicaragua and most recently Honduras as the play book. In case you are not following Honduras, the corrupt so-called conservative president used the leftist playbook and stayed in power illegally by court stacking, ignoring the Constitution, and purging the military.

“This sets the stage for a problem….”

Understatement of all time.

They screen to ensure thier willingness to shoot us.

Any one in Biden’s military is a traitor.

Another option is to extract all the leftist soldiers for Stasi work at home.

Just keep shipping out all the conservatives to Eastasia, whom we’ve always been at war with.

Soon they’d have red-staters actually rooting for Amerika. Remember how many of us we’re propagandized to be Pro-Iraq War?

Not worried at all. During the Russian Revolution the soldiers shot the officers. Whatever it takes to refresh the Tree of Liberty.

A compliant, properly indoctrinated military will be needed in the coming months as the current regime proceeds with the Grand Replacement and its associated cleanup actions.

As everyone did with the drugs questions during the last 40+ years, just lie about these new questions. A criminal government does not deserve the truth since it never gives us the truth.

Well the administration may have a plan to do that but I seriously doubt the military would take any type of command from the Biden Administration. I’m hearing the military brass is pretty much ignoring them and Austin.

It’s all overblown and unnecessary. We (conservatives) aren’t going to do anything. I just turned off OAN because I could not stand to hear that the airports in south Texas are full of illegal aliens with travelling papers, plane tickets, and taxpayer provided cash waiting to be transported all over the country. What are we doing about? Well, our politicians are whining about kids in cages. That’s about it. We’re doing nothing.

The majority of the U.S. military rank and file are patriots

Seems familiar. Where have I heard that before? (hint -- hannity)
