#militarized — Public Fediverse posts

The amount of #Militarized personnel in the streets of America is well into the many thousands at this point. It's already happened, and the mainstream #Media is not reporting on it. There are going to be many more! dead bodies. I don't know what we're going to do. I am not feeling it today.

Does anyone feel like the #billionaires are actually systematically culling the global population?

#Vaccine denial
#climatechange ( #drought #flood #heatwave #hurricane )
Cutting #humanitarian #aid
#armed thugs targeting people
#militarized borders that prevent people from moving to safer places
#AI #datacenters (destroying #employment)
#space (million satellites?)

It all seems to be accelerating. Are we really at the beginning of global genocide?

Despite declaring the “successful completion” of its mission, #GHF from its start was heavily criticised internationally for operating a #militarized form of #aid distribution, with private #US contractors guarding sites that were often host to chaotic scenes.

#Israel also killed hundreds of #Palestinians on access routes to the aid distribution points, which disbursed boxes of dry foodstuffs to the local population that were deemed inadequate to alleviate the acute hunger across the enclave.

New #Trump Order Among ‘Scariest Things I’ve Seen in US Politics,’ #CivilRights Attorney Says

The new order, he says, would essentially allow “random #fascist #vigilantes” to “sign up to be a #Brownshirt” for Trump’s militarized occupation forces.

Stephen Prager
Aug 26, 2025

"An executive order signed Monday by US President Donald Trump may permit 'random #FascistVigilantes' to help him #crackdown on protests across the country, according to one prominent civil rights lawyer.

"The new order, which comes amid wider concern about Trump’s #militarized takeover of #WashingtonDC, directs Secretary of Defense #PeteHegseth to ensure that each state’s #NationalGuard is equipped to 'assist Federal, State, and local law enforcement in quelling civil disturbances and ensuring the public safety.'

D.C. has its issues, but armed soldiers from other states won’t solve them

After a week and change of wondering when a trip in or out of the D.C. would treat me to the sight of President Trump’s Aug. 11 decision to summon National Guard troops from the rest of the nation to serve as political props around the District, a Bikeshare commute for an event Tuesday provided visible proof: soldiers walking around Lafayette Square.

They were picking up trash.

Going to Union Station Friday afternoon provided a few more reminders: five soldiers, armed with pistols, standing on the upper level of Metro Center (one flashed a thumbs-up for a news photographer), and three outside Union Station, outnumbered by veterans under a tent with signs reminding current servicemembers of their duty to the Constitution.

I asked the three where they were from: Louisiana. After a bit of banter about the weather, I said I hoped they could get home to their families soon.

That’s not because I think the D.C. has crime1 solved–although it is down significantly across the city–but because soldiers are not the way to solve it. Law enforcement is not military service, those two professions have profoundly different missions and rules, and U.S. law has long prohibited using soldiers as cops for sound reasons.

The governors of Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, Ohio, South Carolina and West Virginia who sent National Guard units to the District should know this, because multiple cities in their states have higher crime rates than D.C. If deploying armed National Guardsmen and women in urban areas helped stop murders, those governors would have done it already with a much smaller travel budget.

But sending a large contingent of soldiers carrying weapons into D.C. in particular does something else: advertise the president’s ability to treat my neighbors across the Potomac as subjects. While it seems clear that Trump broke the law when he sent National Guard units into Los Angeles without the permission of California’s government, the law expressly gives the president control of the D.C. National Guard, with zero input allowed to the District’s government.

Trump may think this show of force makes me nervous. If so, he’s wrong. It makes me angry. And it makes me even more convinced that the only way to end the abuse of power that Congress has also repeatedly enjoyed at the expense of the taxpaying people of D.C. is statehood for the people of D.C.

1. My most direct experience of crime in D.C. came in February of 1996, when I was mugged at gunpoint on the sidewalk in front of my apartment building just off Connecticut Avenue. I had maybe $30 in my wallet; I then made far more than that by selling a moderately overwrought essay about the experience to the Post, a journalistic business model that I cannot recommend anybody try to repeat. ↩︎

Next to be #militarized will be #Chicago
then all #Democratic #States.
The #US #Army will NOT potect the #Constitution or #Democracy
(much less the 'We the People")
The Army will obey ALL #Trump illegal illegitimate amoral orders
(happily)
To 'defend against all enemies, foreign & domestic' 😃... just a 'cool' sentence
NOT a moral commitment.
BTW
US Army has ALREADY betrayed his #oath and #Constitution duties
will continue to do so
Fear the Army
they will not 'protect'.

Things will worsen
