President Donald Trump's nominee to become a senior Pentagon official spread debunked conspiracies on Twitter that called Trump's election loss to Joe Biden a "coup" attempt and shared tweets that suggest Trump should declare martial law.
Scott O'Grady, a former fighter pilot and Trump loyalist, repeatedly retweeted tweets that falsely stated Trump won the election in "landslide fashion" and that millions of votes were stolen from the President.
On November 25, O'Grady retweeted a tweet that said, "Trump won & Biden & his Comrades will now attempt a coup," next to a photoshopped image of Biden beside Xi Jinping, the President of China.
On December 2, he retweeted an account that shared an article that said former national security adviser Michael Flynn had shared a petition that called for martial law. He then retweeted the same account which suggested that Trump should declare martial law.
"I don't know who needs to hear this," the account said, "But calling for martial law is not a bad idea when there is an attempted coup against the president and this country happening right now."

The two words, “falsely” and “baseless” have demanded of the MSM to give them a rest from overuse.

Everything the guy said is exactly right.

~~~~~~~~~
Poll watching won’t resolve this. Many conservative poll watchers were ejected from watching ballot counting to the wild cheers of “progressives”. Some were threatened, intimidated. Some locations put them too far away from the ballots to see what happened. Some locations pulled suitcases full of ballots out from under tables after ending the count, and watching, for the night.
Poll watchers can’t help with registration/illegal voter issues. Poll watchters can’t address fraudulent ballot software used to switch votes.
Most importantly, poll watchers can’t make the courts adhere to the task of judging these issues fairly. Some courts have refused to even hear them. There are still pockets of corruption out there which are preventing the courts from functioning as the law intended.
Martial law addresses the failure of the courts to function.

I thought that the movie was fine...

Usual, we have wormsign the likes of which even God has never seen:
If you look at this obviously fraudulent presidential election as yet another crooked effort in a long sequence of illegal Democrat attempts to undermine Trump which began even before he was elected. Then, you don’t need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows.
We don’t need Martial Law just yet, although it’s not too early to get prepared. The Dems know if they try to cheat in the Georgia runoff, they’re likely to get caught. But, that won’t stop them, they’ve come too far to get cold feet now. They’re all in.
Trump should keep his powder dry, continue to collect evidence, make his case directly to the people, pursue lawsuits in key states, lay his traps well, and prepare to use his authority as Commander-in-Chief to crush this coup attempt.

We needed martial law long ago, even before poll watchers and the GSA were threatened. The reason for the delay is to help patriots realize the need for it. WIthout sufficiently preparing the public, some of the best Americans among us would be decieved by the MSM to launch attack on white house or other false target in the belief Trump's admin poses a threat.
The Dems know if they try to cheat in the Georgia runoff, they’re likely to get caught. But, that won’t stop them, they’ve come too far to get cold feet now. They’re all in.
The Dems have intimidated/blackmailed/bought enough judges to drag this through civilian courts while summoning our enemies in the UN to come "save us" from President Trump.
The Dems are all in. Biden was bought by China along with many others and they are desparate and will not give up. Courts are already refusing to hear some of this litigation and the MSM is claiming Trump is delusional, bizarre etc. 24/7.
Trump should keep his powder dry, continue to collect evidence, make his case directly to the people, pursue lawsuits in key states, lay his traps well, and prepare to use his authority as Commander-in-Chief to crush this coup attempt.
President Trump has kept his powder dry through endless coup attempts since before he was inaugurated in order to protect as many civilians as possible who could be caught in the crossfire. The attacks will never stop, and the election is escalation, and election fraud is going to be used to portray a "constitutional crisis" our enemies (Pelosi, Schiff et. al) will use to beg the UN to bring its fake "peacekeepers" into the country long enough to help Biden's handlers cause enough havoc and convince the public he won.

_____________________________________
South Korea was under martial law from October 1979 until early 1981...
In October 1979, President Park was assassinated by his intelligence chief.
What happened during the time when martial law was in effect?
Reporters were not allowed to write negative stories about Korean military...Public protests were not allowed...Opposition politicians were not allowed to do too much...
People were tried in military courts, not civilian courts...
Korean people suffered a lot during the time martial law was in place...They did not enjoy too much freedom during that time...
Yes, President has the right to impose martial law...However, I am still very uncomfortable with the idea of martial law...

Knowing the people you’re talking about they would most probably enjoy doing that. Hopefully they'd at least get a good rupture out of it .... :-)

They should be worried because that is likely going to have to happen.
