I'm going to get to the point. Tensions are ramping, people are going to start rebelling, peacefully The minute they start and their numbers are staggering, Trump is going to declare Martial Law This Fri night massacre was a preemptive strike to put into power those who will follow his orders

There is no playbook for what is taking place in our nation The damage being caused is incalculable For those of you old enough to remember "this isn't your father's oldsmobile" We've become that other country we'd see on the evening news and say look, that can never happen here

Just look at these paragraphs from the AP story. Hegseth called Brown unqualified solely because he's Black. Then they fired him... and replaced him with a white guy so indisputably unqualified that he requires a Presidential waiver. This is what "merit" means to them. apnews.com/article/trum...
