[QUOTE="Admin., post: 1351255, member: 1129"] BREAKING: A retired Army Major General just issued a SAVAGE response to Trump’s misuse of National Guard troops to invade Democratic cities. Major General Paul Eaton did NOT hold back as he told the out-of-control president that his actions are both wrong AND dangerous. His epic statement below: Eaton issued a statement that condemned Trump’s deployment of military forces to Los Angeles, Washington D.C., Memphis, Chicago, and, soon, Portland, Oregon. "The National Guard, when federalized, is no different from the active force. As a retired Soldier, I am calling this out for what it is - and what others who have served surely recognize - a horrifying misuse of our military,” the retired Major General began. "Using the National Guard has become a pattern for Trump. This isn't the first time or city we've seen this tactic used, but it needs to be the last.. Using the military to create political theater as a means of distraction is nothing more than intimidation. Make no mistake - the deployment of active duty Marines and federalized California National Guard in Los Angeles was blatant political intimidation, as well,” Eaton continued. "Right now, Republicans are lying about abysmal job numbers and trying to gerrymander Texas because they can't run on their record. The National Guard should not be called upon to pose for photographs and intimidate residents to make Trump look tough on crime,” the VoteVets advisor angrily pointed out. "Trump himself refused to activate the Guard when our Capitol was under attack; he should be embarrassed he is activating them now - specifically in blue state cities - to be the shiny object during an already failed presidency," Eaton concluded his comments. Retired Major General Eaton made his remarks before this morning’s hastily called assembly of all of the nation’s senior military personnel where Trump and his newly re-named Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, further outlined their plans to illegally transform our country’s military into a domestic occupation force while abandoning our commitments to our European allies at a point when they face the greatest threat from Russian aggression since the end of the Cold War. The only comfort the American public has left at this point is the knowledge that at least some former senior military officials (and hopefully at least some of the active-duty generals and admirals) recognize the danger that Trump presents to our democracy and to the stability of the modern world order. If you are outraged or rightfully frightened by Trump’s authoritarian misuse of America’s armed forces, please like and share this post! [/QUOTE]
