Fat Generals ! F A  F O  , seriously ?   now is the  time for this ? He is telling us  that he isn't going to surrender  the  Whitehouse peacefully and  asking directly and bluntly for supporters that will use force against American citizens  in an effort to further impose his will.
That line about “look em in the eye” and “the enemy within” is textbook intimidation theater.   o-4 national gaurdest Ole Saturday drunkard fox host  Petey Pete  
demanded
ALL  the Generals   appear before him so he can stare em down and tell em how it's gonna  be .  Then peg legged Taco manatee himself manages to huff and  puff his waddling way up to the Mic  and spews   " you better be  ready to deal with the  REAL  threat

THE ENEMY FROM WITHIN !
  The enemy from within ?  Oh, you mean like violent insurrectionist attacking the  Capitol ?
No, no,  those  are  heroes and patriots  now.  
Oh, so you mean peaceful protesters and people that disagree like Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Kimmel. Also all immigrants and anyone with brown skin of any kind.
Lets be clear.

This  Christo-fascist ****  rhetoric is   weaponized to
blur all  the lines
between attacking  political opponents and enemies, and to
normalize using the military
as a cudgel against civilians
that disagree with bad policy and fiscal imprudence.
That phrase alone should make every veteran bristle and every democracy loving American  get  off there fat lazy @#$  and put in some effort .

Below  are two things you can use right  NOW: a short, scorched-earth
email to YOUR  U.S. Senator
that demands oversight and hearings, and or  a blunt phone script for your governor to make sure the state Guard stays under state control unless legal thresholds are met.
Use them verbatim, tweak the curse words however you want.

Scalding email to your U.S. Senator (copy/paste)

Subject: Stop the “enemy within” bull and hold hearings now on
Posse Comitatus Act (18 U.S.C. §1385) that generally bars using the military to execute civilian law. That’s  baseline legal prohibition and more than enough for precedence .

Senator [Last Name],

I am a constituent and a Navy veteran. I watched a recent Oval Office spectacle where a civilian official and the president used language about “the enemy within” while addressing flag officers. That phrase is blatant intimidation and an attack on civil norms. I am asking you to demand immediate congressional hearings to:

Establish what orders were given, in writing.

Require the DoD Inspector General to review any directives that could authorize domestic use of force against unarmed civilians.
Protect OUR rights to peaceable assembly.

Protect whistleblowers, Guard authorities, and IG independence.

Get a legal opinion from the DoD General Counsel and the Attorney General on the legality of any implied or explicit orders to use force against U.S. voters and coerced persons.

We do not tolerate casual talk of turning the military inward.

If Congress fails to act and oversight is weakened, you will be judged by voters and veterans who stood in harm’s way to protect constitutional order.

I expect a prompt public statement and commitment to hearings. Don’t pussyfoot or candy coat  this.
Sincerely,
[Your full name]
[City, State]
[Optional: branch, rate, years served]

Blunt phone script for your Governor (use on voicemail or live)

Hi Governor [Last Name], my name is [Your Name], I’m a constituent (  and  an active duty combat Navy veteran).  I’m calling about reports that federal officials told a room of generals to “be ready to address the enemy within  with swiftness and brute force at a moments notice .” That phrase is alarming and could be used to justify federalizing the Guard or Marines again  using armed troops against citizens.

I want you to state publicly that you will not consent to federalization or the use of the National Guard  and or Military forces not limited to but including the Marine Corps for domestic law enforcement . I want you to confirm you will defend the independence of the state Guard and push back against any unlawful orders. If you won’t, tell me why.
This is beyond ridiculous  speech and behavior.  Ludicrous and disgusting abuse of power and  obvious fear and intimidation tactics, like no sitting president ever before .
Of all the wicked forms of man
We're in the worst, uncaring hands;
For I've never seen so many fools
Fail together as they lose their cool.
The universe itself is blowing smoke
As the whole world stumbles, chokes
On the gas we're huffing
The lies, the bluffing
The wind bags breathing hot air-
The misery, day in day out-
All enough to make me shout-
So what?? Like I even care!
Can we just pick a mode that works,
Or let the end come nigh?
I'm tired, I'm done,
This is really not fun
And it makes me want to cry.
So when you ******* are done pretending
That this messed up world is ending
If you could turn the light switch on
And then, very helpfully,
Get the **** gone.

— The End —
