“ that he is going to have to purge the heck out of the Pentagon, to scrape out the festering rot”

He will need to purge the entire federal government. The only chance of any nominal restoration of a nation will be to rip out the entire federal structure, roots and branches, destroying it completely and utterly. The current permanent federal government is the fundamental cause of the Leftist Tyranny that we now suffer under.

They better be fearing it in 2022 because on the off chance Trump is not reinstated all Hell is going to break loose.

It is not up to former and current generals to fix, that is right in the military service academy training, it is up to the the exactly one power, states legislatures with the approval of the state governor, to take control of each own powers of election control. Simply mail in voting is not trusted by a majority of the minority, their fore it does not have a place in federal and state elections. Participation in voting, getting ones shoes on and going to polling place is required and it has been traditionally in winter where weather in half the states might be a challenge. Those challenges were their for a preservation of society purpose unrelated to classism, racism, religion or political viewpoint, voting should be a hard task undertaken with a lot of thought.

Alot of preparations for individual voting is a political education test. Unfortunatly americas marketers participate only on most basic of levels.

Party Voting preparations are chalenging late rule changes that may counter established election law. Both parties did a very poor job in managing each states elections regulations and practices.

Individual vote counting groups were commercialized and filled with bureaucrats because nobody cared for the past 50 years, now the parties care, now the individual voters want to observe the process. That a overall every detail transparency is a requirement, webcams, election observers within 3 feet is going to happen, else the bureaucrats results will no longer be trusted. Anti Counterfeiting of blank/prefilled ballots, Anti Tampering, Chain of Trust and Voter Receipts that allow voters to confirm their vote was or was not counted correctly is what is now required of the system. With 128 byte Generic IDs and QR codes all this is not difficult to do.

With Vote Receipts, The day after an election, the voter does not see his vote in the selected election tally, they can file a lawsuit with state and federal courts with standing they have been wronged. With the lack of vote receipt there is no way for the legal system to gain rapid recourse on systematic election fraud inside the vote counting.

Bringing back the electronic output or paper based equivalent of the the 3 ply form would provide evidence in support of election integrity. The serial number of the voters individual ballot would only become known to any party by the voter bringing up their might be a problem because his/her vote was not published in the tally expected.

Just goes to show that when President Trump is reelected with a very Republican congress, that he is going to have to purge the heck out of the Pentagon

****************************************

I just hope that he delegates those decisions to someone who actually has a clue about who is on our side and who isn’t.

IF WAR COMES—It will be started by the Left as they try to impose their will upon the Nation. Like the last one it will be states vs. Federals.

The headline wants people to infer hundreds of generals, not 3.

Stephen M. Anderson: “Anderson has spoken publicly on energy and environmental issues in various forums. His Op-Ed piece, “Save Lives, Save Energy” appeared in the New York Times on 12 Jan 11 and in July 10 he appeared for a week on a national television campaign for a national Clean Energy climate. He has testified before Congress and made numerous radio and television appearances on venues such as National Public Radio, BBC, WUSA, and proudly supported the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRCD), Environmental Entrepreneurs (E2), the National Science Foundation, and other environmental or veterans organizations.” https://www.americansecurityproject.org/about/consensus/members/brig-general-steven-m-anderson/

Trump couldn’t get the people he wanted because those people were afraid of the threats to their businesses and personal life if they entered politics.

It is now obvious the left won’t leave people alone, whether in power or not.

If you are going to be persecuted anyway... might as well grab some power to fight back.

Trump might have greater luck recruiting the people he wants.

I suspect PDJT will have even more trouble finding the right people for his second term. Not many are willing to risk the welfare if not the very lives of their families.

Our generals have joined the oligarchs. Bad news from which I doubt any republic has survived.
