Meanwhile, over at the Pentagon . . .

Remember back in the earliest days of Trump's coup, at the Pentagon SECDEF Hogsbreath removed all Defense Apartment Judge Advocate Generals -- all the lawyers who tell him if actions are legal.

Trump's federal takeover of the California National Guard would not have been allowed by the JAGs -- which is why they got rid of them early in the game.

This is NOT something that's happening accidentally. It was carefully planned, in great detail and the result will be a declaration of martial law. Count on it. Probably followed by not holding elections in Nov 2026.

1. I agree until the last sentence.

I absolutely believe that the US will have elections in November 2026. Russia has elections. North Korea has elections. Turkey has elections. Authoritarian Strong Leaders love elections when they control the vote count.
