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.

    Yeah, it’s really the dumbest take. Get a gun! That’s not going to solve anything when we have so many systemic issues at play here. A gun ain’t going to do shit, but make you more likely to use it on yourself. Don’t google gun stats unless you want a bad day.

      You definitely shouldn’t get a gun, but don’t hide behind me when the marauders start going house to house, killing anyone whose house isn’t decorated in MAGA momentos.

        They can get behind me, I just ask that they provide support. Hand me loaded magazines, give me some food every so often, tell me what is going on in the neighborhood, dress my wounds with clean TP. If they can’t fight, they can still serve the cause.
