JFAnon9 hr ago I absolutely believe Trump devolved the government. Devolution is the only concept of which I’m aware that exists without apparent contradictions in current events.
It’s absolutely imperative that whatever actions are taken, it’s done 100% by-the-book to the degree that any action undertaken will survive the harshest future legal scrutiny. Whatever mechanisms are used to ‘right the ship’, they need to be legally unshakeable, especially if Trump ends up back in the White House.
As SLAG points out, the Constitution offers us no clear path. Yet I think it still plays a central role, specifically through the MIL oath to uphold and defend the Constitution.
The military is the only way to restore America.
Without going into the weeds speculating how it will play out, at least from 100,000ft there’s no shortage of possibilities that could provide proof of some level of corruption and foreign control:
-Election audits
-The Durham and Weiss investigations
-The Maxwell trial
-The Juicy Sommelier trial
-Nuremburg 2.0 and the exposure of Fauci, Daszak, Pfizer and the medical-industrial complex
The problem is that a large percentage of the public will not see the proof because of MSM suppression.
I have no idea what event or happening will bring the MIL out of the shadows but I think it would need to create a Constitutional Crisis. Anything less would have the potential of MIL law being second-guessed.
Spitball:
What if election fraud perpetrated by enemies FOREIGN and domestic is proven on a Congressional level? Having these cases wind through the states feels like it will take an excessively long time but maybe that’s what needs to happen.
Unless someone like Eric Coomer has been flipped. What if he confesses and brings the receipts that among other things directly implicate the CCP?
No matter how the fraud is revealed, elections will be nullified and as @Andre points out, unrecoverable. MIL will have no choice but to step in because, outwardly, Continuity of Government will be jeopardized. MIL will then set into motion the process for new elections.
One more thing. The MIL take control of the MSM - hold that thought for a moment.
The important part of this spitball is that MIL will be publicly in control until the new elections. I don’t think this necessarily means that devolution will be revealed, however. I think the notion that the Biden admin has been presiding over and owns this shitshow is critical.
Flashback: On June 12, 2015, just four days before Trump announced his candidacy, the DoD released the first edition of its Law of War Manual. Until then, DoD had never put forth a DoD-wide manual concerning the Law of War. While different branches had their own manuals, a comprehensive manual didn’t exist. I don’t think the timing of DJT’s announcement was coincidental. It’s almost as if the act of publishing/formalizing MIL process under the previous admin was a precondition for Trump announcing his candidacy
It’s a LONG manual - almost 1200 pages. Chapter 11 Military Occupation (just 84 pages!) is the most relevant section. .
Before jumping to a few specifics relevant to SLAG’s questions, I want to explain why I think this entire concept is legally applicable.
According to 11.1.3.2, the law of belligerent (military) occupation does NOT apply to liberation of friendly territory (the US). It defines the administration of liberated friendly territory as being governed by a civil affairs agreement between the MIL and the government of the friendly territory.
However, it further explains (and the footnotes add clarity) that if a civil affairs agreement isn’t possible due to other circumstance (like having an unrecoverable election), a military government by a belligerent power is a legal option.
The importance of respecting as much of the occupied state’s existing laws is woven into the fabric of this Manual. As such, I think any law promulgated by MIL as the occupying power will necessarily be congruent with the Constitution.
OK - on to three interesting sections/sub-sections about the breadth of authority vs normal civilian law.
-11.5.2 MIL has duty to respect the laws in force in the Country unless it impacts their security.
-11.7.2 MIL has the authority to censor any and all forms of media (footnote re: 1A is relevant.)
-11.9.2.2 Notwithstanding the obligation to respect the laws of the Country, MIL has the authority to change municipal laws (think sanctuary cities, for example).
To the last of SLAG’s questions: Will there be trials?
Most definitely.
11.10.1.1 and 11.10.1.2 provide MIL with the authority to suspend ordinary (non-criminal) courts if they are corrupt, establish MIL courts to enforce civil laws (not just MIL laws) AND remove judges and prosecutors from office (see footnote - Hey, Binger and Fatlock, pay attention!)
Section 11.11 - Criminal Court is an extension of 11.10 Ordinary Court. It establishes further procedures to remain aligned with the occupied territory’s laws and the Geneva Convention (GC). I think this section would only apply to foreign nationals (not US citizens) in uniform as they would be defined as Protected Persons under the GC.
Not sure, I don’t believe US citizens who committed treason (spies or otherwise aided the enemy) are subject to GC protections and would likely face military tribunals and the death penalty.
I believe Antifa will be declared enemy combatants. I don’t believe they would be afforded GC protections as US citizens, .
Tribunals are very different from civilian court. The judges are the de facto jury, rules of evidence are different, and the defense has very little leeway in terms of delays and shenanigans. Tribunals are def expedited justice.
I wonder if MIL will publicly take charge before Durham or Weiss move into trial phase and the targets find themselves facing a MIL tribunal? That would be interesting, indeed.
I’m unclear as to whether this occupation would be solely at a Federal level, or if the MIL would also consider each state as occupied territory. I’m inclined to believe it could include states as occupied territory, which would allow the MIL to clean house and change election laws in blue states.
I think it’s critical that MIL occupation would be initiated under a non-Trump admin because optics are important.
I think the entirety of Chapter 11 provides a framework that ensures all actions will withstand any level of future scrutiny, while providing very generous leeway for MIL to
-Take control of public messaging
-Weed out corrupt officials
-Change corrupt laws.
-Mete out justice to traitors
THE BEST IS YET TO COME
END
Just as many traitors within the MSM as well. Needs to be cleaned out sufficiently that TRUTH gets out to the masses.
That is my conclusion as well, thank you. Timing is everything.
