Which would explain why that guy thanked pence the way he did.

I thought the Pentagon told him he was not welcome there. If he’s saying the DOD is in control over his agenda he’s right. I think Trump did sign the insurrection act and turned everything over to the military, the military is in control and there will have to be a new election because they are not going to let Biden get away with anything. Biden is again trying to legitimize what he does, trying to make us think this is his idea but it is the military’s idea. We will see real action anytime after Biden’s approval rating goes down to 30% because the military knows that about 30% will never admit the truth. I am patiently waiting for that day of our own Mayanmar.

That's... not what he said.

Yeah it is. He said the DoD is essential for every policy agenda, no matter what it is. That's a coup. When the military controls all aspects of a country, that's a coup.

That's not a coup. That's like a company relying on a branch to handle certain duties that impact all branches.

So... a coup isn't when the military is responsible for all policies foreign and domestic? Are you that based?

It clearly wasn't "certain branches." It is EVERY ASPECT OF HIS AGENDA.

He said this himself: There is no aspect of our agenda of the 21st century leadership where the women and men of the Defense Department do not have a role — whether it’s helping curb the pandemic here at home and around the world; or addressing the real threats of climate change that already is costing us billions in impacts on our bases, on our national security; or being part of an ongoing fight for racial justice.

You are essential to how we must rethink and reprioritize our security to meet the challenges of this century, not the last.

All aspects of our leadership involve the DoD. Every policy agenda involves the DoD. What the hell else do you call that?

They're not responsible for formulating any policies (which is what a coup would be), but they can play a part in carrying them out.

Except they are. You need to read his other Executive Orders...

He tells the DHS and Intelligence community to formulate a way to combat climate change. He tells them to basically institute coups across the globe.

And now he told them they are essential for all American policy.

In his Executive Orders for days he's called them to basically control things like the weather, immigration, and now racial justice and all other stuff in the U.S.

This is a coup.

Since when at any point in U.S. history has the DoD been essential for all policy agendas? What would we be saying if China was suddenly essential to everything we did? Wouldn't we think China took over?

This is so painfully obvious.

That's still not a coup. Who ordered them to do that? Not themselves, Biden did.

Oh. My. Goodness.

Let's go over everything they are responsible for:

  1. Border Security (DHS and DoD work together on this, as per Biden's new Executive Order)
  2. Foreign wars
  3. Foreign coups
  4. Climate Change
  5. Racial injustice
  6. Controlling the weather
  7. Immigration patterns
  8. The News (Obama's bill allowing propaganda to be used on American citizens)
