There you go with the nonsensical bull**** again.

It's hilarious that you think the military, all of whom have sworn to uphold the
Constitution, would allow someone like Trump to be a dictator.

I'm sure there are some who would believe you.

Show me some evidence that the military, never mind the Secret Service, would
allow such a thing to happen.

I would bet that a closed vote would have shown a lot of observant Democrats
voting not guilty, which would have been the correct vote.

It's easy to say that a military takeover could never happen here but
it has happened a lot of other places.

Firing the SecDef is a very long way from "taking over the military".
I doubt less than half of the military officers could even name the
SecDef, much less pick him out of a line up.


They could if they pulled guard duty!


Maybe if they worked at the pentagon but I doubt an e3 in Killeen
Texas knows the SecDef from the Post Master General. He might even
think DeJoy is really a general.

Chain of command questions are always asked during Guard Mount, and God help you
if you don't have the correct answer!


The military is a lot like the US Civil Service. Politicians and their
appointees come and go but the core of the military never really
changes.

Talking about the military, when is Biden going to let the National
guard go home?


It's that silly assed mayor of DC.

The Capitol protestors left on the 7th of January, at least the ones
who were not arrested or shot. Making DC look like the Green Zone in
Baghdad is not doing much for our national image and does nothing for
our security.


Bowser thinks keeping the guard there will make the Republicans look worse.
That's her absolute only motivation. My neighbor works at the Monocle
restaurant, about three blocks from the capitol. Fencing with barbed wire is
keeping it closed. She's pretending the rioters are returning.


These people are as clueless as Harry.


Yup.

You just don't know when the Trump thugs will return.


Of course you do. The last time was publicized for weeks and the CapPo
waved off the offers of help, even from their sister agencies in the
federal police.
DC is the most policed city in the world with one cop per every
hundred people or so if you count the DC police and other DC sworn
officers along with at least a dozen federal police agencies. It was
ludicrous that the let a rabble of a couple thousand unarmed people
butt **** them that way.

That must be a regular army thing. I never had to know the chain of

name.
This was Navy and Coast Guard. I doubt reservists or Nat Guard folks
even know that once they leave ACDUTRA.

It was controlled chaos. They got the publicity they wanted and
they only had to kill one civilian.

My roomie was a Marine (He is still a marine, just not my roomie for

I never heard anything about knowing about anyone above the Marine
Commandant and the president.
Hell I couldn't even name the base commander when I was in the Navy
school.
