OPERATION WHIRLWIND..Here They Come, Folks [1]

['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.']

The Washington Post and New Republic are reporting that Ed Martin, US Attorney for Washington DC has launched “Operation Whirlwind” whose sole mission is to threaten, subvert, suppress, prosecute, and jail dissent. And they are starting with Congress. Both Sen. Schumer and Rep. Garcia have just received letters which given the capacity of the DC Attorney threaten a potential arrest. This is a hot war at this point. They have completed the weaponization of the DOJ. The fascists are gunning for 2 people today. If they can get a Senator and Congressman, they can get us all.

We knew it was coming. I’m still as shocked to see it as anyone. At least we know now who is the American Gestapo. Personally, Ed Martin can kiss my old redneck ass; and he can try to get me in the sticks anytime he wants as long as he doesn’t have to come back.

Given Musk’s statements, you can bet AOC and more are on the list. Their intent is to jail Congressional leaders while we cower in fear. They believe that. My belief is that they have misread America. Granted, there is going to be 10s of millions that will break with Trump however I have to believe that there is enough of those that were asleep to the fascist takeover that will break to our side. The goal is to destroy the country and leave the populace with no recourse but acquiescence or jail. This is now war.

The midterms are toast if this is not defeated.
