From Admiral James Stavridis, USN, Ret.

I commanded dozens of major bases in Europe for 4 years as Supreme Allied Commander of NATO & Commander, US European Command. We had plenty of scares, but nothing that required this level of alert. Clearly there is a deep concern and that is consistent with everything I can see.

From retired commander Mark Hertling:

Many who closely monitor these “triggers” are seeing the same thing, boss (@stavridisj). Not just to disrupt elections but also to stoke the current divisiveness that is increasing.

Admiral James Stavridis, USN, Ret.@stavridisj

All of my signals are blinking red in terms of the potential for a terrorist attack against American interests in the U.S. or abroad in the next few months. The chance to disrupt the US election may be irresistible to our enemies.

@POOetryma There is a 60-min interview where Espers confirmed that. Look up David Leavitt on Twitter.

There is a 60-minute interview with Esper that he confirmed this.
I can't copy the link for some reason. Look up David Leavitt on tweeter.

Donald Trump’s former Sec. Def. Mark Esper: “[Trump] was suggesting that...we should bring in the troops and shoot the protesters.”

Q: “The commander-in-chief was suggesting that the U.S. military shoot protesters?”

Esper: “Yes, in the streets of our nation’s capital.”

@InUnfunky I kind of thought srael's supreme court ruling about ultra-Orthodox Jewish seminary students may be drafted for military service would bring about a faster ceasefire.

BREAKING: Donald Trump’s former Secretary of Defense Mark Esper just confirmed as President, Donald Trump asked him to order the shooting of American protestors. A man who calls for the murder of American protestors cannot be trusted back in office. That’s what’s at risk here.

Breaking:
@kyledcheney
reports Rudy Giuliani disbarred in New York.

Team Biden-Harris just announced that it raised $264 million in the second quarter of 2024, pulling in $127 million in June alone — the campaign's best month of the cycle — including $38 million in the four days after the debate.

This second quarter haul is $75 million more than the Q1 of 2024.

@NaomiSkarzinski @DavidSalo Biden reminded us ‘the power is with the people’.

@AnneW A JAG responded to Hertling’s question:

‘ The commander can and must refuse it. It’s still illegal for the commander even if the president is immune from prosecution for it. But, the commander doesn’t have to because that person can be pardoned if they go ahead. Or, they can be replaced with someone who will do it. This will wreak havoc with the good order and discipline in every unit across the globe.’

Military factions can result …

@AnneW I meant the Team 6 example was a way to warn Americans the ruling’s implication for coup plotters to gain military support.

@Anouk I am a 60-year-old childless naturalized citizen. I feel way too many Americans take democracy for granted. 1/3 routinely don’t vote, especially the younger generations. I worry this maybe catching up with us. The younger ones will live with the consequences longer.

@SandHillThicket Sotomayor’s dissent opinion is more like a house-on-fire alarm. That Seal Team 6 example was to make it plain for ordinary Americans.

Mark Hearling, a retired army commender just posed a question: "As a former military guy, I’m trying to figure out how a commander can refuse an illegal order from someone who is issuing it as an official act."
It makes me wonder if SC's immunity ruling was a way to paving the way to undo the military's allegiance to the constitution? All dictatorships need the military to stay in power.

Biden reminded us 'The power is with the people'. Great speech.
