Simultaneous purging of the chief generals of all three branches.
They are ensuring the military has no cohesiveness to stage a future coup against the Executive Branch, and are replacing all control with their own loyalists.

It’s not really unprecedented is it?
to stage a future coup
to stop the coup that is happening <-- FTFY
Funny how most in the west refuse to see the violent orchestrated maidan event as a coup but when a clown gets to power by voting and does stuff it is.
Just a reminder that, especially for Trump and those who staff his new media-manipulation-savvy regime (Fox News defectors), Friday night is when you take action or release things that you don’t want people paying attention to. Friday night, we’re all exhausted and/or distracted. By Monday there will be a new news cycle.
Installing loyalists in the top military positions is one of the things that is signal, not noise.
That’s the fun part, if there’s too many signals it all just looks like noise!
Trying to install loyalists to ensure the military won’t go against him when the time comes
I believe Senate confirmation goes all the way down to one-star generals and admirals. So he can’t just install new ones overnight.
I don’t think the old rules will apply much longer. Trump is playing a game the normal US government have never had to deal with. By the time everyone gets up to speed, Trump will have purged anyone that could have done something.
I think the USA is lost at this point. Damaged beyond repair unless the anti-coup happens soon.
He can if the Senate is complicit in his appointments
Trying is the word
You guys literally have all the guns. You know that, right?
And the ones that voted for this have way more of them and spend more time with them
Whenever one of that countries millions of morons would defend all those fucking guns they have, it is for this exact reason they say.
“iF ThE gOvErNMeNt OvErStEpS”, against drones, jets and tanks…
Remember that the US military is absolute garbage at fighting against guerilla tactics.
I don’t think we have long before Trump starts going after personal gun ownership, and that’s when those folks will be crucial.
But “those folks” overwhelmingly voted for him, so don’t expect much from them. They’ll suddenly believe that 2nd Amendment is DEI because daddy said says so.
No, their guns will be their line in the sand
🤞
hey bright side is we probably don’t want whatever outcome from that hypothetiocal coup either
