You said distinction without a difference. When pressed you immediately capitulated to the truth that there is an immense difference between federalization of a local law enforcement agency and THE ENTIRE ARMED FORCES. You say itโs equal to martial law. Itโs not. Itโs a MASSIVE DIFFERENCE.

Iโm not saying that thereโs a zero percent chance it leads there. All Iโm saying is that federalization of the DC police is not the same thing. And as of right now, declaring Martial Law wouldnโt be particularly effective bc youโd need total buy-in and the parade showed that isnโt the case. Yet.

This was always a possibility in America. Always. ESPECIALLY after Nixon. There was not a single conservative who would tell you he was wrong until YEARS AFTER THE WATERGATE BREAK-IN. Remember it was the cover-up that got him caught. But until that came out, PPL LOVED HIM.

Look at how many British Loyalists there were. 80 years later we had fascists in support of dissolving our nation bc they wanted to own ppl. 80 years later we had the American Nazi Party. Reagan repurposed MAGA as a ๐บ ad 40 years later. 35 years later we had MAGA.

I donโt think plenty of ppl ever said there was a ZERO PERCENT CHANCE. Iโd think just a glance at American history would be enough to tell you weโve always had a group of people who were fascinated by fascism. Every 80 years we repeat the same story.

Those ppl are ppl who donโt have any concept of reality. Anyone who actually thought that and ACTUALLY knew American history, is simply a fucking liar. There were not plenty of ppl who thought that. There were always ppl who have wanted this. Since colonial times.

Just a quick note: Federalizing the D.C. National Guard is not the same thing as โmartial law.โ Iโm not saying that makes it good, but martial law is when the military *supplants* civil government, not just doing law enforcement. Donโt credit him with more power than he has (because heโll take it)

No matter what he wants, thereโs a zero percent chance that he could get martial law declared right now. He is testing how far he can go. Itโs not as far as he wants, so stop trying to make it seem like heโs already done something that he hasnโt. Thatโs her point.

Whether it feels like it doesnโt mean that it is. Sheโs not saying he is not wanting to be there already, just that he ACTUALLY IS NOT THERE-YET. Itโs also no different than what he tried in LA. And that failed. Bc California is a state, DC isnโt. However he remembers his failed parade.

She quite literally never did that. Maybe you need to learn English or read a dictionary. FFS learn what martial means. MARTIAL LAW=MILITARY LAW. Sheโs very explicitly saying this is a step towards it. GFY ๐ฉ ๐ฆ. Iโll take the opinion of an actual member of the FBI over some rando.
