The commander of the arm of the U.S. military responsible for Donald Trump’s illegal military occupations of American cities said he is willing to conduct attacks on so-called designated terrorist organizations within the U.S.

This startling admission comes after months of extrajudicial killings of alleged members or affiliates of DTOs in the waters near Venezuela, which experts and lawmakers say are outright murders.

Gen. Gregory Guillot’s sopenness about the potential for unprecedented military action within U.S. borders comes as the White House, Pentagon, and Justice Department continue to refuse to rule out summary executions of Americans on Trump’s secret enemies list, after weeks of requests for clarifications from The Intercept.

    Dickheads forget there’s the Posse Comitatus Act. Unfortunately it’s a matter of time they’ll try to get rid of it.

      They’ve been trying to skirt it by federalizing the nasty girls and hoping for a confrontation but thankfully none has happened.

      I’m not so sure about the Navy and everyone below the Admiral who spoke out and got fired, the sailors who fired those missiles fucking wronged their oath badly.

      They break a lot of laws with no consequences. I’m pretty sure they’ve given up even caring about how to justify their lawbreaking at this point.
