A Friday Night Massacre at the Pentagon
A Friday Night Massacre at the Pentagon
Trump’s purge started with his firing of the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the top Navy officer, and the vice chief of the Air Force.

Maybe it’s because I’m just very sensitive to these sorts of issues but when somebody fires a black man because they think he’s “woke”, it makes me believe that they didn’t fire him because he was woke. They fired him because he was black.
2nd. Is Trump just out there firing the people that will stand up to him ? If yes, we are in for a world of pain, this may not be how dictators are made, but it’s how they sustain their power

How is this even a question? Yes, of course that's what he's doing. He's literally following the playbook right wing think tanks wrote before the election. They've stated openly that this is all part of their plan. Purge the government of everyone but loyalists, and then act with impunity because the people whose job is to act as a check on executive power will rubber stamp everything.
God, Americans should be panicking right now and you're all just sleepwalking into this.
Because a vast majority are fucking idiots. Everyone, with any sense, was yelling into the void between their ears about project 2025. Ads about it were everywhere, too. Stupid Stupid Stupid fucks.
Panicked and panicking, I felt helpless
Alone, there's not much you can do. That's why you need to organize. Find other people and groups to join with. Not only do you have more power as a group, but you have other people so you feel less alone and isolated.
Organize. Resist.
Yes, but also all of these local movements organize on Facebook 🙄
I can assure you, facebook is only a public face in many instances. much organizing is done in the backwoods of signal and briar.
Pardon my ignorance, but what is Briar?
all questions are good!
online organizing has an important place and, over the last 8 years, people have gotten much better at organizing safely online.
Awesome, thank you so much!
This. Facebook is just an entry point.
This is exactly why organizing in small ways is so important. You need to get plugged in, get connected, get into the right people's contact lists, get onto the signal group chats. That's where you're going to hear about the stuff that's going down. Thats where you're going to get the chance to stand up and say "I can help with that"
As Tucker Carlson might say “I’m just asking the question “
Donald Trump has no fucking clue what is going on other than what is being whispered in his ear by the people who are orchastrating this whole thing.
Exactly why I keep saying in other threads that this problem doesn't die with Trump. The damage is done, and the whisperers just need a new puppet once Trump kicks the bucket.
They pronounce "Woke" with the hard R
You are not wrong on either. This is exactly how a dictatorship begins. I only hope that the American public can see this for what it is. But I doubt it. Literacy is not a strong point.
I’m still hoping that James Bond like character from the British government will take him out for us, but that might just be because I’m in the middle of a James Bond movie marathon
Well, the British did burn Washington DC once before 🤷♀️
I hope it's Idris Elba. Dude was born to be the next Bond, maybe that's the real reason he couldn't.
And there’s nothing wrong with that. Enjoy.
The Iranians wanted to kill him for murdering their general but were waiting on him to lose the election so security would lapse.
Figures.
The issue is I think enough of us want that. A "benevolent" dictator. They are already too lost and I think the only possible education will be difficult, painful, and generational in length.
My evaluation is that a small percentage of Americans want a dictatorship, and a large percentage don't but are not aware that the steps are being taken, because they think that the institutions of their government are immutable.
DUH
