For the First Time in my Life, I'm Afraid for Our Country

I still have faith in our generals. Once civilians start getting shot in the streets (and it WILL happen) the military will have had enough. And, correct me if I am wrong, but as Commander In Chief the President is subject to the military code. Therefore...the President could be taken into custody and brought before a military tribunal to face justice.

This sounds fully plausible ... NOT!

That's totally unprecedented--but still a better rationale than the Supreme Court had to declare the President above the law. Should be doable in a martial-law situation.

Looks like if the military is to act to stop Trump, Tuesday Sept 30, 2025 is when they have to do it. There's an agenda for tomorrow, and if the Generals acquiesce, it's all over.

Read the details from Zav Shalev. Who? We'll here's his blurb: "Ex-CBS News EP Award-winning journalist exposing global influence operations, threats to democracy." And here's his reporting on Tuesday's agenda. It's a plan to make it easy for the Generals: "Agree with the new National Defense Strategy of 'Homeland Defense,' which means the Army in cities everywhere. Agree right now, or you're fired!"

We can only hope that since the plan has leaked, it will be countered.

[Edited to correct date. No October revolution here.]

The agenda outlined in my link was not openly attempted. Maybe the danger was overly hyped. But certainly actions like were outlined to suborn the military and use it against the people are typical of authoritarian regimes. I wonder if leaks of the plans led to effective counter pressure behind the scenes. In any case, I did see where one Four Star General was announcing his retirement this morning..

Maybe this makes it harder to know what if anything he may do or organize. (fingers crossed)
