Leftist Generals Call for Military Coup

Democrats claim that democracy is under attack in America and Democrats must act decisively to protect it. They’ve been trying to end the filibuster, nationalize voting, and pack the Supreme Court. The most ominous “fix,” which hinges on the myth of a “January 6 Insurrection,” sees retired generals argue that the military must purge the ranks of Trump supporters and prepare for a military coup to block a future contested election. This is unconstitutional, illegal, and spells the end of American democracy.

Victor Davis Hanson notes that leftists are loudly worrying about democracy’s end while ignoring all they’ve done to end democracy, such as bringing in millions of illegal aliens, many of whom are being given the vote; destroying centuries-old governing traditions such as the filibuster; packing the court; ending the Electoral College; and more.

If Democrats can kill the Senate filibuster (and Arizona Senator Kyrsten Sinema is the only thing stopping them, not the craven Senator Mitch McConnell), they have the unfettered ability to enshrine vote fraud and pack the Supreme Court. The latter move spells the final—and deeply unconstitutional—progressive rewrite of our Constitution, and ends our constitutional republic.

Are you talking about a brand new constitution - or just a major re-write?

If a major re-write - would be basically be amendments - which would require 2/3 of the States/Commonwealth

As far as a brand new constitution - I do not see that as un-constitutional.
But - could be an interesting subject!
Thus - I started a new thread for this: If we were to replace the COTUS:

The point of the article is the unconstitutional siezure of power, and making the constitution of none effect. They aren't talking following the Constitutional prescription for adding amendments.

Why are you trying to change the subject?

This thread got off on the wrong foot, possibly because it didn’t quote enough of the right part of the article and people aren’t reading the article itself, which is not long at all.

The point is its title, which the OP echoes: “Three Retired Generals Loudly Demand A Military Coup In 2024.”

Here is another excerpt:

Second, the Three utter a sentence I never expected to come out of the mouths of our military leadership: “[T]he military cannot wait for elected officials to act....”

That’s a stunning statement from anyone who understands our military history and our Constitution. The single most basic rule of our military is that it is wholly and completely under civilian control. So, what would the Three have the military do unilaterally?​

Here’s another excerpt:

Among other things, they argue that the military should undertake “intensive intelligence work” at every military base to “remove” those people they define as potential mutineers—i.e., Trump voters. This would be the U.S. military’s first ideological purge, one consistent with the old Soviet Union. Maybe Milley and Austin will install “political officers” in each unit.​

The Dem Progressive Left has made marked inroads into the power structure of the US military.

This was partially achieved through the Progressive moves from “don’t ask, don’t tell” to having openly homosexual soldiers to an all-out LGBTQ+ agenda including funding transgenders. Bizarre.

But now they’ve also introduced Critical Race Theory with its ultra-racist agenda. The Progressive push is to purge the military of those who hold to its conventional role and the US Constitution.
