Senior officers of the United States military have an obligation to speak up and be leaders. Where is the Army chief of staff? Will he or others speak truth to the commander in chief and put a stop to the assault on the integrity of his troops? www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

There are no orders for these troops, they are operating illegally and they don’t even know it. We need to educate them! Posse Comitatus Act prevents our military from acting in this capacity the only way troops can interact with civilians is if you invoke the Insurrection Act.

Every major Dem politician needs to realize that, in this environment, they can schedule a "speech to the nation," like Newsom did, and get tons of media coverage. Just do it.

It's been really demoralizng how much the press mindlessly repeats the lie that the National Guard was sent to quell violence. It was sent to start violence. People know this, so just say it.

@pelosi.house.gov: "On January 6th...we begged the president of the United States to send in the National Guard. He would not do it...And yet, in a contra-constitutional way, he has sent the National Guard into California. Something is very wrong with this picture."

Our institutions are not made for this moment, and those in establishment - from the media to business to politics - aren't built for this fight. If you're counting on them to lead us, then we are already doomed. The leaders will emerge from the ground and the grassroots.

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

He stood in front of our troops today and gave a mean spirited, partisan speech. He stood in front of our troops today and attacked Americans by name. He stood in front of our troops today and goaded them into booing their fellow Americans. Never become desensitized to this.

House and Senate leaders should demand resignations from both Major General Pat Work, the 82nd Airborne Division commander, and Colonel Chad Mixon, the Fort Bragg garrison commander. This was possibly the most partisan speech ever delivered by a commander-in-chief to U.S. troops.
