Trump Faces Military Resistance After Unlawful Directive

Trump trying to weaponize the military against its own civilians, we'll see how military resistance works out. I'm secretly hoping that there's massive resistance in every direction but I'm highly skeptical. I know that they're taught to obey orders like good little golden retrievers so I hope for the best, expect the worst.

@redredred says

military recruitment is way up,

Yes, it's amazing what can happen when you lower the standards! According to https://thedefensepost.com/2025/02/28/us-army-fitness-standards/

A new report from the Pentagon Inspector General reveals that the US Army has been lowering its fitness requirements to meet ambitious recruitment targets.

The findings come shortly after Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth celebrated the service’s “best recruiting numbers” in 15 years — a milestone reached just last month.

According to the report, approximately 14 percent of 1,100 trainees between February and May 2024 exceeded the Army’s body fat standards, even after threshold adjustments and extended time to meet the required weight.

BTW, tRump sent 700 active-duty US Marines to LA. Not Nat'l Guard, but U.S. Marines. Are you admitting that was illegal?

The use of the National Guard to put down riots

Riots? Ah yes, the dreaded Portland Frog Costume riots; viewer discretion advised!!

@redredred We had peace in the middle east under Clinton; Bush blew it up with his Iraq war. Takes time to fix that mess.

hundreds of thousands invaders have already been sent packing

Biden deported at higher rates than tRump.

the economy is booming

Did someone forget to tell the soybean farmers? Anyway, how do you know? tRump is preventing the release of economic indicators. BTW, we've been running on Biden's budget & economy until the shutdown; the "tRump economy" IS the shutdown🤣😂

You can't counter my point about lowering recruiting standards; particularly weight limits? Good to know.

And you have no evidence of "riots" in Portland or LA or San Fran or NYC? Good to know!!

@ElwoodBlues It’s kinda funny because people are saying there's riots in Portland when it's a bunch of people dressed as frogs that's how you know the racists don't get out much 😭 🤪
