And here you go. I honestly do not understand the moral cowardice that leads some of our fellow citizens to not speak out against what's going on.

hundreds of troops to do what, occupy one shopping mall

What's happening here can't happen here, simple as that.

Trump planning to suspend Mid-Term elections. Will have military crush protests.
-
😮💨 hate this timeline
-
Organized criminal cult and Gestapo
-
We are teetering on martial law instituted by a man who thinks America is 1950s Yugoslavia and he's Marshal Tito.
-
they're going to be reacting all over your town soon
-
But I was told by Very Smart People that the military would never obey orders like this…
-
"Civil Unrest"...aka, peaceful protest against Trump
-
Faulty premise.
It's not cowardice. IT'S AVARICE.
The entire oligarch-owned Zombie Fourth Estate disinformation industry LIKES this and believes they are going to profit wildly from it.
-
Who would they be speaking to? It's not moral cowardice. It's an increasing certainty there's no organized opposition currently anywhere, other than small local groups who're, stalwart as they are, failing to stop egregious lawlessness.
-
In preparation for Civil War 2.0... tick-tock America🔥
-
Here comes the abwar.
-
The puges at the Pentagon and appointment of incompetent amateurs like Hegseth to replace them made it clear to me in, oh, February that one goal was making it possible to use the military against the U.S. populace.
-
I believe that every large police department has local cops embedded with various federal task forces. If Trump moves to send the military into cities, the first thing that the mayors should do is pull all of those officers out of the task forces.
-
I don't think these people are aware of how many National Guard troops it takes to guard a building, much less police a city. They typically turn out to be human statues.
-
Conservative voters must tell their representatives that this is unacceptable. They must demand they end this and vote them out if they don't. Give them the choice of removing Trump or losing their seats.
-
Americans and their bluster about protecting freedom and fighting tyranny was all so much bullshit.
-
They aren’t cowards, they’re fans
-
They don't think it will affect them, so they're okay with it.
-
Omg just STOP!!😭
-
A significant percentage, the ones Fox News scares the hell out of 24 hours a day, think this is a great idea.
-
Dictatorships need popular support & high security to be upheld. Since Trump is so unpopular they are deciding to lean fully on the latter. All stick no carrot means permanent military occupation of all population centers. And if they do loose any election expect this army to swoop in to overturn it
-
1.3 million active duty troops and 750,000 National Guard are going to cover 50 states?
26,000 per state active duty and 15,000 per state backup by National Guard.
Are they sure every soldier is willing to shoot fellow citizens?
-
-
SO much for that oath that all members of the military take. The indoctrination must be really intense there.
-
He’ll use the Brown shirts (Ice) to create civil unrest so he can declare martial law.
-
It’s because they are getting exactly what they wanted. Never think for a moment this isn’t what they want.
-
Not to mention the military. Officers swear to the constitution don’t they? Not the President?
Regardless, they are not obligated to carry out unjust orders. Our military has always been unconstitutional, but this is so far beyond anything we’ve seen.
-
-
They’ll need more than “hundreds.”
-
Reminder, this is the same Pentagon that couldn't figure out how to secure Iraq, a much smaller and less heavily armed country with a long history of suffering under assholes before they fired all of the people who actually know how to do things.
Be angry but don't be intimidated.
-
Congress needs to stop this now!
-
right wingers like this kind of nazi shit, and they always have despite all their freedom propaganda, what conservatism has always been about and always will be about is conformity and hierarchy, they live in a constant state of fear, particularly of change especially social fluidity
-
This is a police state
-
We knew he would use the military to invade a country to distract from epstein. What we didn't know is that it would be the former republic known as the u.s
-
It's called collaboration, and it's way too prevalent.
-
By “civil unrest” they mean “constitutionally protected protests”
-
A Swift Service for actions the President sees as needed? Special Soldiers? Soldiers of Speed? Call them the SS for short?
-
Can we finally stop thanking our troops for making this possible?
-
Posse Comitatus.
-
We cannot let them scare us into inaction.
-
They spelled peaceful protests wrong
-
Use alt text
-
He’s playing defense and normalizing military use against citizens. The growing masses will continue to rise up against his regime, but not all in our military are loyalists…
-
It's a combination of cowardice and a failure of imagination - oh, he wouldn't REALLY do that
-
Can you provide more details on who is not speaking out? Are you referring to corporate execs?
-
So this tells me they're planning for civil unrest, that they're going to push the people so far that revolution is inevitable.
-
America has always been a remarkably conformist society, going all the way back to your founding by religious fanatics expelled from England; you don't have a problem of too many of your fellow citizens not speaking out about this, you have a problem that so many of them are clamouring for this.
-
Wait till they team up with ICE Barbie’s goons for the ‘26 election. I think there’s a reason our esteemed SecDef’s brother is the DHS liaison.
Aside from nepotism, I mean.
-
We're all going to have to get on board with a General Strike.
Shut this country down with work stoppage and not buying anything. No school, no work.
Protest while we can...millions in the streets (they can't arrest 11 million people)
But even without protest, we can shut it all down.
-
-
I want to hear from everyone who took the oath to defend the rule of law; everyone in that building, really.
-
This is outrageous. The posse comitatus law should be strengthened to prevent this. Similarly, the ability of POTUS to use the National Guard for civil control needs to be severely restricted and require Congressional authorization.
-
Few understand what this is all about.
Distraction from Epstein? No Big Ball's ass-whooping? Nah, LOL Crime and the homeless? Nope
Civil unrest after the GOP illegally maintains control of the Senate and House after the midterm? Bingo!
-
If the majority of your populace becomes “unruly” once you start to push a certain policy agenda, then perhaps said policies are unpopular and aren’t in the best interest of The People.
You cannot strong-arm a population into sustainable submission; you must restore true Representative Governance.
-
It's not cowardice. They are morally bankrupt garbage humans. And the GOP has been running psyops on the base for nearly 50 years to get us exactly here. They have so much cognitive dissonance. The GOP fear-mongering and gaslighting work for a reason. www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/mind...
-
Wondering (not really) where the leaked plan for blue state governors to mobilize their national guard units to block federal troops/agents from creating unrest and abusing their citizens in their states.
-
I think Le Monde (Paris) has the headline right: Trump orders National Guard into Washington in a political swipe against Democratic elites
-
It sure looks like he isnt planning to send anyone into cities that DONT have gun control laws, though.
He seems super focused on making cities WITH gun control laws unsafe...not from crime, but from HIM...
Just an observation
-
Where are our leaders?
-
$
-
They’ve been brainwashed and fed lies. In less than a year we will be living under the thumb of ICE patrols and Big Brother surveillance
-
If you figure that out please post the answer. It’s driving me crazy.
-
I’m pretty sure the US military isn’t prepared to conquer the US.
-
Because this is a completely safe issue for Republicans. 100% of GOP voters believe Democrat run cities are crime-infested hellscapes because they've had nightly fear programming on right-wing media for decades. To them, this is Trump's ride-in-on-a-white-horse to save America moment.
-
First let’s have some more hand wringing about whether we’ve reached a Constitutional crisis and then whether this is martial law.
-
On our way to a Trumpolini announcement about a national emergency prompting the deployment of the military to blue state cities and the suspension of elections. It was in the plan but the Epstein files made it urgent.
-
They are only about 4 years and 7 months too late!
-
Every person wearing a US military uniform who is involved in this needs a military tribunal. Voluntarily making US WAR PLANS against US citizens on US soil is fcking outright treason and definitely violates any oath of office any of them made.
-
The National Guard already IS "ready around the clock." And plans are just pieces of paper. React to actual things that happen. The L.A. nat guard deployment was a big fat nothingburger.
-
American soldiers pointing their guns at American citizens is unAmerican AF!
-
Important news like that needs alt text even more than most image content.
-
there lies the words
“ MORAL COWARDICE”
Study after studies shows how many hours people spend online
Yet no one sees this.
Willfully blind What aboutism And my all time favourite 🙉🙊🙈
🇨🇦🇺🇦✌️
-
This is bad.
-
Indeed
-
To stand in this moment & know that you are in possession of documents, but to stay silent is to be a part of the MAGA Nazi regime. Appreciation for the AMERICANS who are standing with DEMOCRACY and not being complacent.
History will be the judge.
-
But somebody literally just DID speak out. This was only published this morning.
-
The total uselessness of our "opposition party" explains a lot of it.
We need a real opposition party on the side of people, not corporations and billionaires.
-
You also have to acknowledge that many Americans have no idea what is happening. Not everyone watches or follows the news. So many people just live their lives naively, happily unaware of what is happening anywhere other than in their own sphere. Just consider how many never vote.
