Constitutional crisis

Holding your soldiers to a universal standart is not tyranical, not against human rights, and not against the constitution of the USA.

This

Teach ‘em to kill in the hood!

Firing General because you do not like them and sending Army Troops into US cities to "train them" is the definition of tyranny. Maga doesn't care about the Constitution any longer, only Taco.

Germany just had Military training in cities. That is not Tyranical. In fact all over the NATO the military gets into gear.

And I am pretty sure Maga cares for both the constitution and mexican food. Also you are weird for bringing up food.

we can always rely on German militarism!

How Germany conducts military training in cities vs why Trump sends the military (violation of the posse Comitatus act), to Blue Cites for the purpose of harassing and intimidating civilians with fear, is a world apart from Germany's actual military training exercise.

Kudos on the joke. You may be from another country Taco, 'Trump always chickens out' . An acronym started by wall street to describe Trump tariff insecurities by constantly moving the numbers.

See, you learned something about Maga's fascist President today!

I learned that you rather be cheeky than making sense.

I will not comment on your blue city situation, I don´t know anything about it.

Since your president has pretty much openly declared that peace talks with russia are over there is noone left that tries to end the Ukraine/Russia war peacefully.
Your military can not afford to have Generals that refuse the order of your President.

The EU deals with constant airspace violations.
Russia makes the biggest draft since WW2.
China has their military stationed in international waters of the Mediterranean Sea for a year now
Germany did a "training" of moving people and equipment to the east front (Yes they said front not border)
Germany has build their first military base outside its borders since WW2.

Stop playing with matches because you feel cheeky, we are sitting on a powder keg.

To be honest? There has been very little news concerning the Ukraine war that is told here in the US.
You need to understand, and I will be blunt,
Trump is a narcissist, who's main focus is using his position and power to settle his own personal past grievances.
The shock of Trump's utter defiance against his oath of office dominates the news cycles in the US. Literally, our Constitution and democracy is under siege

Compound that with his domestic militaristic war on woke (blue cities) a scheme to outlaw an unorganized, irrelevant, anti fascist, left wing group named antifa, in order to declare it a terrorist organization, for the purpose of arresting protests, call them antifa, and jail them without due process, or proof, because being charged as a terrorist means you have no legal recourse or rights as a US citizen.

So, we both sit on our own powder kegs.
You with a possible European war escalation through the loss of diplomatic US solutions that Europe could, until Trump, historically depend on. But now cannot.

And I, with a President who wants to turn our country into an authoritarian militarized hell scape where more than half the citizens may be punished, jailed, demonetized, and labeled
un American for the crime of not being liked by Trump and maga.

If I was being cheeky before ?.It's because it softens the blow when discussing our reality. But if you want the unvarnished truth of what I see happening? So be it..

You are part of the NATO too and if it escalates it will be BRIC VS NATO, in other words World War 3. The ball is rolling for the last 3 years.
You could face something alot worse than Trump soon.

----------------------------------------------

"unorganized, irrelevant, anti fascist, left wing group named antifa, in order to declare it a terrorist organization," - there are at least 2 lies in this part about AntiFa

For the rest I have to see a peaceful protest getting hit by the military, and not a "mostly peaceful protest" that would get called a riot any place else on the earth.
Sadly the american left has poisoned the water that I can not take your word on base value anymore.

Is using military on citizens an escalation? Yes.
Is it necessary because police are no longer enough to protect other citizens? I dunno.

That would be when THE W**RE OF BABYLON falling on her knees

Don't count on Trump to bail out Europe, despite a NATO presence.

Trump changes his mind frequently and has an America first mentality.
Past treaties or promises to protect European sovereignty could change in an instant.
Trump would let Putin run over Europe if necessary. As long as the nukes don't hit American soil.
It's even possible he would side with Putin in such a conflict for American self preservation. Want proof? Trump wants to absorb Greenland and Canada. Why not carve up Europe and North America with a Putin Trump agreement?
Remember, loyalty runs one way with Trump.

You're entitled to your opinion, as well as I am mine.
I whole heartedly disagree with your assessment of how authoritarian fascism isn't affecting Americans. Especially, since you aren't a US citizen, and I assume, have zero experience living here, or, are basing you assessments on Right wing sources that lean completely into disinformation or even fantasy.

We have a Constitution that was designed to protect freedom and free speech. Trump will tolerate those who are loyal, shut their mouths, and say nice things about him.

Not the America I grew up in, and loved.

So we are at the derailing part of the conversation in that case:

Remember we soon celebrate the fall of the Antifaschistischen Schutzwalls a.k.a. the Berlin Wall. Don´t come here to build it back up because in your insane mind everything
anti-fascism is good. Build it on your own border.

Derailing? or political impasse?

Does Trump southern border wall remind you of Berlin's?

If Germany didn't start two world wars in one century, would the Berlin wall ever existed?

I would agree that doing the same thing over and over again is the definition of insanity.
No matter if it's a Communist dictatorship or a fascist one, isn't it still a dictatorship.

Good luck.

No

What r u babbling about? It is the president’s prerogative to fire anyone within the chain of command. He is sending the National Guard to corrupted cities, that’s not tyranny.
Tyranny is when your government tries to make you take a vaccine, or fires you for not taking a vaccine, or coerces the press to not cover news that could inform the people of political shenanigans prior to an election, or jailing dissidents without benefit of counsel or reasonable bail.
You and your side of the aisle keeps wiping your collective asses with the Constitution.

Tyranny is when you’re too f**king lazy to defend your freedom

President can fire Generals, but what Trump is doing is purging everyone he doesn't like, and, considers 'woke'
or to be more precise, people who challenge Trumps authority.

Remove all political opponents in order to consolidate power.

If the shoe was on the other foot, would you be fine if a Democrat purged anyone considered to 'Maga'?
Could I say then, maga keeps wiping their fascist asses with the Constitution. Would you feel that I was actually making a valid point? Or just being condescending. Perhaps, tyrannical?

No, Trump is a bonafide tyrant . Believe me.

Again, his prerogative to fire any of them for whatever reason. Being “ woke” is a great reason. There are many reasons that someone might not be liked, but I don’t think that in this case it’s personal, but based on performance. Either way, it’s his choice. Generals aren’t supposed to challenge the President’s authority. Chain-of-command and all that jazz. You probably didn’t serve, so you truly don’t understand the principle.
The military isn’t supposed to take sides politically. It is forbidden. If a General is being political, he needs to be removed.
The shoe was on the other foot when Biden was president. A lot of servicemen were discharged because of Biden’s saw them as possibly MAGA (how soon you forget). There was a purge.
The rest of your screed is just so much whataboutism and political vitriol.

So, the military isn't supposed to be political, but getting rid of Generals for being 'woke' is ok? Isn't the Presidents attempt to purge Woke.
Is so he can pack the armed forces with purely maga?

Isn't that political, and forcing the military to take sides? Against military code of conduct? Certainly appears that way.

I'll let you explain how that's ok.

Yes

No

He isn’t doing that .

The U.S. military Code of Conduct are articles of regulation concerning the behavior of military personal in combat and captivity.
P’raps you are referring to the UCMJ?

Again, he isn’t doing any of that. Nothing to explain, it’s self-evident.

Isn’t it against the Geneva Convention to use tear gas in war? Yet, it’s the suppressive weapon of choice in America’s streets

On 11 April 1951, U.S. president Harry S. Truman relieved General of the Army Douglas MacArthur of his commands after MacArthur made public statements that contradicted the administration's policies.

OOPS

MacArthur was insubordinate, and wanted to invade China. It was the Korean war, and his actions were creating a situation for a ww3 event with nuclear armed country

Truman did the right thing for the country,and the world, by removing a megalomaniac General.

Trump is the opposite of Truman, and everything Trump does revolves about himself.
Trump wants to purge the country of woke. That's code for anyone I disagree with.

You only did half your homework. Because the other half of the story, contradict the maga thought process.

blah blah blah... A president has the right to remove generals...

Why didn't you say that to begin with? Far more genuine.

I said it and you argued against it.
You can’t have it both ways, Scooter.

Passive aggressive? Shove it? Bullshit? Piss off?
Damn, someone needs a time out.

Whatever.

It's actually Viking I was replying to. Very confrontational tonight. Bad day?

Constitution

If you mean you support the Constitution? I'm with you brother.

Good. We all should.

Hahahahaha! These are upper level petty officers and chiefs. They were all miserable under leftist WOKEISM rules and are now happy.

Happy to now embrace the opportunity to crush RUSSIA

Enjoy your sleep. We’ll wake you when it’s over!

They were pissed at such a frivolous photo op for the drunken overlord

It's simple:

Pete is telling the US Military officers we are no longer supporting wokeism.

Times have changed and our military cannot be seen as a joke to Iran, China, Russia and North Korea.

Serious times call for straightforward progress...not nonsense.

Simple or simpleton?
I love how you cut and paste this response to ever meme concerning Hegseth and Trumps fascist meeting. Proves how robotic your posts have become. What happened?

Dont use words if you dont know what they mean. Take this as a warning. You know not of what you speak.

As a US citizen, I have the right to say anything I wish. You value the Constitution? Then you should support freedom of speech.
It doesn't work for just one side.

It works for all people. Im warning you against speaking of things that you do not understand. You may regret it.

Big talk from a man represented by a child’s toy!

Its hardly a childs toy. Do you not agree with my statement?

Who made you the arbiter of language?

It is warning. If you could read things like history you would agree.

If you think history as you’ve learned it is an accurate representation of the facts, you are hopelessly uneducated
