“It’s not fair that you can do what you’re permitted to do! You should do what we want you to do! Remember when you didn’t get to confirm SCOTUS judges? That was more fair because it helped us!”

Oooh, a good dill pickle slice on a pizza sounds good. So do green olives… I have to try these now!

Get out of here with your woke pronouns, it’s ’he/him mob’!

People who have baggage are easily controllable. Trump’s a mob boss, and he’s equally in the pocket of Putin. He’s used to these tactics.

Guy seriously broke the ‘half your age + seven’ rule. Off with his head.

Child sex trafficker.

What prevented the states from not listing the insurrectionist this last time?

Also, what state would stand up to the fascist that* they elected?

Also, when you’re the weak one in the group of fascists, a state* AG, Governor, or guy running the election, how long do you think you’d live or remain employed beyond you deciding to rock the boat here?

I think it’s safe to assume that if you can control promotions you’ll promote those who better fit your ideology. And if you also implement a ‘red scare’ labeling and removing anyone who holds different ideologies than yours… all that will be left are those willing to obey what would have been illegal orders, and those that believe your orders aren’t illegal.

Edit: remember, they only just removed DA photos from the SRB, because they had a problem with promotions going to people who ‘looked like military leaders’ which was very heavily favoring ‘strong white men’.

A roll back of policies like that, reimplementing things like ‘Don’t ask, Don’t tell’, labeling progressives or democrats as socialists or commies, labeling non-religious people similarly as non-American, discriminating against minorities again and labeling them as others… also, don’t forget that 1 member of Congress held up our top promotions for how many months?.. due to his personal belief about abortion rights? The ground work is already being laid.

‘Woke policies are weakening our military!’ ‘Women don’t belong in combat fields!’ ‘Permitting trans and gays in the military made us the laughing stock of the world!’ ‘Roll back woke mandates in the military!’… feels like an easy path to follow, there.

“Hegseth’s choice could bring sweeping changes to the military, as he has made it clear on his show and in interviews that, like Trump, he is stridently opposed to “woke” programs that promote equity and inclusion. He’s also questioned the role of women in combat and advocated pardoning service members charged with war crimes.”

Here we go!

Doing it over years, replacing leadership at different levels at different intervals, starting at day 1, then everyone 8-12 months thereafter, until You reach year four… will mean they the leaders you’ve instilled across the formation will all be prepped and on the same page when you throw the coup at year 4.

That’s why they’re starting now, not 2027 or 2028.

But, they didn’t come and personally talk to me about how Kamden Hussein omala was going to make the ‘economy better’ (than it did post Trump’s BS)!

But, we can’t remove the tax-exempt status from churches that are explicitly promoting Republican candidates…?

More than half your class is too busy licking their boots to unite against them. They’re grateful for the scraps they’re being given, while worshipping their masters.

I mean… the alternative is Hawaii, which isn’t at all the bastion of ‘cheap vacations’.

Total control, they can impeach every democratic judge and expel any and every democratic congressman/woman if they don’t play ball. And you still have the appearance of following the constitution.

They don’t even have to use unconventional routes to remove judges from the SCOTUS, all they have to do is impeach. ‘But, they don’t have the numbers in the Senate!’, once a few congressmen fall out windows, everyone else will rubber stamp whatever else the GOP wants, to include impeaching leftist judges and expelling leftist congressmen who don’t fall in line.

This is me, boss comes in with a new task, I immediately whip out my green notebook and start writing as he’s talking then let him know I’ll get to it when I’m done with my current task. I use black for writing out the task and subtasks, red for checking items I’ve completed already, slashing through tasks that are no longer required, or writing notes that come up during the task (like ticket numbers). I think I’m like just below halfway through the notebook I started in February.

There’ll be no shortage of those once they start rounding up the democrats (to include anything else that isn’t the ‘true republican’), the LGBTQ+, and non(‘correct version’ of)christians. Oh, and minorities.

The first members of the administration, Congress, or the SC who aren’t faithful enough will be the ones who ‘commit suicide by throwing themselves out their hotel windows’, the rest will rubber stamp any and every maga law, to include anything that would prevent him from being president for life, like his buddy Putin.

They’re already doing it. More than half the United States’ voters this year just elected a man who lied about fumbling the pandemic, who lied about having the most secure border and the best economy, who lied about the insurrection he very clearly instigated, and has lied about his policies and political stances form day one (health care, abortion rights, you name it) and people are accepting, if not believing, what he’s saying. This is doublespeak right in front of our eyes. They’re lying right now, and they’ll lie later when they start attacking our basic human rights and start rounding up our friends and their political opponents. And we’ll accept it, if not believe it.

He had the threat of impeachment for misuse of Presidential power before. Now he doesn’t, the House will never be able to bring that against him while in Republican control, and the Senate’s still his. I’m willing to bet we get to see a huge increase in Democrats being impeached across the country. Impeaching Democratic judges, formerly appointed for life. Sure, you’ll need some Democrats on your side, but once everyone is afraid of the gazpacho (/s), more than enough will fall in line. They’re ‘official Presidential acts’ remember, and if you thought they weren’t, their hand selected judges would disagree with you and approve the acts.

Hell, it’s already been mentioned before, all he needs to do is claim a ‘red scare’, then investigate, impeach, and purge the ranks of those that don’t fall in line. And it doesn’t have to be blatant assassination, the people will believe what they’re told.

Edit: uniquely, other than having dissidents randomly fall out windows, Congressmen/women can be expelled without impeachment, with a 2/3rds vote in their respective houses (little ‘h’). So, say a few start throwing themselves out the 5th floor window of hotels… enough remaining will prostrate themselves and vote to expel their peers, same as they would to impeach SCOTUS or federal judges.
