It is actually genuinely funny that the Army looked at the Executive Order and said "no"

more camo HRT for all!
like, the military are imperialist troopers, but I've seen them have a backbone on human rights when it comes to their own more than a few times.
still glad to see it.
more plz
I cannot believe the country has fallen so far that I'm hoping for a military coup but, here we are. And, yeah, I know our military ain't gonna save us. They want a king.
Woke military
Save me woke military
Having that done in four years would be OPTIMISTIC.
That is how you resist
As I write this, I am very glad. Our president has been overthrown and-- REPLACED BY THE BENEVOLENT WOKE JUNTA. ALL HAIL WOKE, AND ITS GLORIOUS NEW REGIME!

Tell me someone else realizes this...
Name one fucking concession the Democrats gave them. One.
"You and what army?"
It's honestly reassuring to see the army refusing to follow these orders, even if it's just "for now".

To be clear, the blame here is on Trump for pushing it to this point
Maybe I should re-up?
hey let's not conflict-narrative-for-engagement about the military disobeying trump ok? ffs
"I was just following orders" is not a valid defense.
*checks notes*
"..uh"
*covers mic and begins whispering to others*
*muffled arguing*
"The.. the US.. Army?"
does this count as military resistance?
And the artillery
I suspect that the minute this becomes legalized, they'll do it.
insane that it's the year 2025 and I am lighting a single tiny candle hoping for a fucking military coup.
Armed forces: "No pasarán"
Eh, total fantasy but good to see at least a fleeting moment of pushback.
SCIF? LOL, just bring your phones right in.

actually it’s something much worse
I say I identify as an attack helicopter because I am a point of consciousness floating above the battlefield sending fiery death down to my enemies through righteous will and malice. We are not the same.”

50 Protests in 50 States again on President’s Day, Monday, 2/17: https://events.pol-rev.com/
Oh right I see
That kinda behavior usually bides I'll for despots....
...."Well, that's something you don't see everyday, Edgar!"
"What's that, Chauncy?"
"Tanks rolling down Pennsylvania Ave."
" More tea, Chauncy?"
But any medical care will continue, and all service members "will be treated with dignity and respect."
Seems like partial push back, partial compliance.
...At some point it is likely to come down to the military being ordered to attack peaceful civilian resisters
If they're already questioning orders, that's good.
They’re going to wait to see where the courts go
