Yeah...they took their entire approach from old episodes of "As the World Turns", and "General Hospital"....😐
But then, all the JAGs too?
This is overt preparation for using the military to (brutally) put down protests in American cities this spring and summer.
The National Guard was never ordered to fire on the Kent State kids, and yet ...
And a significant fraction of our Army is MAGA.

But Fox "News" plays all day on every military base.
He’s clearly going to order the military to handle illegal immigrants. And then he’ll turn it on anyone who refuses to go along with his fascist bullshit.
This is a BAD situation.

Fuck every asshole who voted for him. He showed you who he was the first time around.
Worth noting he picked Milley for similar reasons thinking he'd be an unquestioning loyalist as well.
Purging/putting loyalists in the government/military is the first thing an authoritarian does, here.
Don’t give in
Now everyone knows cause we have our phones on us and our socializing (on and offline) often includes it.
A reminder to stay sober about things. is always good.
