Aaye, laddie! 😁 Much water under the bridge, so to speak. . . . Truthfully, while I think we sensed a great threat then, now we are in a different universe! We didn't have the Brown Shirts attacking us in the streets - with the Democraps' blessing. We didn't have the MSM exhaustively working to overthrow an election... we fought for GW Bush in 2000 and carried the day.
We weren't tied to social media - just FR - for our freedom, and JimRob wasn't censoring us into silence. Fox News Channel came over the horizon like the Liberation Fleet.
The enemy we face now - some of them from of old - is prepared to shred the Constitution while telling us that they are doing it and So what? in our faces. The common thread through it all is the Clintoons, but we thought we had slain that dragon; little did we know that Hildebeest was the great enduring evil that was immune to man's laws... that like an evil Phoenix she would rise from the ashes even more powerful, able to corrupt even the highest seats in our government.
As to the tribunals - I don't know, above my pay grade... but I can see the reason why. Maybe we have to be like Turkey after the fall of the Ottoman empire: let the military take over temporarily in order to re-establish the proper order, which they had to do repeatedly in the 20th century.
PERILOUS TIMES! ... as usual.
Oh! ...and 'Hi'!
I could see POTUS having to invoke Martial Law on a state by state basis with the appointment of a Military Governor over a state or Territory (more than one or parts of a state or states) due to open insurrection.
This would the require the establishment of a tribunal system under military control. Extreme but maybe necessary. JMO.
It would be a very bad read on the part of the liberal left or the DS/Cabal types to wake the sleeping giant that is middle class freedom loving, America loving citizens.
MAGA! ( i remember those early discussions from my days as a lurker!)
