Some 1,500 active duty Army paratroopers have been put on alert for a potential deployment to Minnesota, according to two defense officials.
They’re ones who are trained and equipped for arctic warfare. This is kind of thing you do when planning to massacre civilians.
Edit: The Washington Post is now saying the same thing:
Pentagon readies 1,500 soldiers to possibly deploy to Minnesota, officials say
Soldiers with the Army’s 11th Airborne Division in Alaska have been placed at the ready following Trump’s Insurrection Act threat, according to defense officials.
Could also be for Greenland.
Could be; both are utterly illegal and any soldier who follows an order to attack either deserves to be prosecuted
Prosecuted? Maybe. Summary execution, definitely. They aren’t soldiers. Soldiers took an oath to defend the constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic. Anyone attacking civilians and protestors is just a regular old fashioned mass murderer.
I don’t think it’s so black and white. A lot of those soldiers are barely surviving and their money feeds their kids. Enlisted don’t have the luxury of disobeying orders blindly, that law is applicable to the officers issuing them.
Having said that, as a vet, I would do malicious incompetence and sabotage our mission in “incompetent” ways as much as possible. Also, I would never open fire on innocent civilians no matter what.
Sorry but levying war against the United States is the one crime laid out in the Constitution. Don’t Do It.
Yeah, I was quite drunk last night. You’re 100% right that in this context, soldiers would have the ability to disobey these types of unlawful orders under the UCMJ.
You know that’s not what the orders will say when they are given to the soldiers, right?
They know full well they’re going to Minnesota to kill a bunch of people for…blowing whistles.
Right move in that situation is ro refuse.
I don’t think they do know that. How many brainwashed people have you met yourself? Have you listened to any Fox News coverage - what would someone who trusts that outlet believe?
Donnie at it again
Art of the deal strikes again folks!
Minnesota is basically Greenland in January anyway
At this point I think it is distraction. Notice that if he actually intends on doing something he just does it (giving Russia edge over Ukraine, Venezuela etc).
If that’s not his choice, but wants to distract media (hello Epstein) he just talks about it (for example aid to Ukraine, help to Iranians).
2 weeks. Those things will be done in 2 weeks.
Always 2 weeks. Never ever done, but 2 weeks.
He telegraphed intent to attack Venezuela for months before actually sending the military to kidnap their president.
That’s because to do the mission he needed to get snug Navy present there. He used drug snuggling as an excuse. And that took few months.
Notice that once mission was performed now the drugs are no longer a problem.
the VP of venezuela conspired with him, so it no secret either.
She was in Russia on a diplomatic visit.
