In October of this year, one month prior to the November midterm elections, a special army unit known as 'Consequence Management Response Force' will be ready for deployment on American soil if so ordered by the President.
The special force, which is the new name being given to the 1st Brigade Combat Team of the 3rd Infantry, has been training at Fort Stewart, Georgia and is composed of 80,000 troops.

BTW the 3rd ID looks like the current home of the 7th Cav. Custer’s, Hal Moore and Aloha Ronnie’s unit!!!

How many of them referred to Iran?
A big fat lie.
A LOT more than HALF of the military is AGAINST Obama.
Tyrants and totalitarian systems do not last. If the USA Republic falls, I have no doubt it will eventually rise again.
If the warsaw pact nations made it through communism, I have no doubt that the Americans can do the same, but it may not be in my lifetime.
I trust in the Lord. What does not kill you makes you stronger, and he will not give you more than you can bear. Pray daily for your country, and your family is the best thing to do.
Give your troubles and fears to him, and take whatever actions you can to help.
If Obama suspends elections and deploys them it IS an Obama issue.
Good points all.
Obama would tell any loyal commanders (assuming there ARE any) to assign troops on the basis of their NOT coming from the areas to which they’d be posted.
And you are correct. THEY must kick it off. Our hands must remain clean!
And just as in 1775, we’ll know when it’s time...
Unless the entitlement checks are about to stop, I fail to see the need for such a force.
When something called "Army Times" calls for the resignation of Donald Rumsfeld, nothing in it can be believed.
I wouldn’t believe a thing printed in this fake “military” rag. The hacks who write for it are wannabes and lefties who called for Rumsfeld’s resignation..
I deployed to Washington, D.C. in 1969 with my platoon of paratroopers and the rest of our brigade. The “enemy” were anti war protestors descending on the Pentagon, the Justice Department, and the White House. Of course, many of them are now working in those locations as political appointees.
The 82d knew what they were doing in this type situation. They had been to Detroit in 1967 and Washington DC in 1968. Riot duty was routine - there was a standard plan and training program called Garden Plot.
I think that the last time there was any threat of civil disobedience was during the 70’s in Governor Bill Clinton’s Arkansas when the Cuban refugees were housed at Camp Chaffee. Most support to civil authorities since then has been for forest fires, earthquakes, and hurricanes.
I doubt Ft. Stewart can hold 80,000 people.
Stock up on food, water, necessities and ammunition.
I’m not seeing any. I hope I’m wrong, but my gut is feeling exactly like it did before things went to hell in LA for a week in 1992.
I knew a national guard MP officer who said he would shoot US civilians if so ordered.
No problem. They will be met by an elite unit of blogpimps.
That's the plot of my third novel in a nutshell.
Saw some of your books at a vendor’s table at a gun show last weekend.
Where about?
Just in time for the November Elections. HMMMMM.
