How funny. On this issue the DC dems are to the right of the fucking Pentagon.

    this was predictable from the moment almost all of the generals publicly told trump they wouldn't help his coup. ofc there's a bunch of other institutions that are fully on board with the GOP clerical fascism, namely all non-federal cops. DHS also came out in support of trump when he contested the election. part of the balkanization will be that all of those overfunded, armed-to-the-teeth institutions the US has either pick sides or even become independent actors. note that the airforce also issued a memo they wouldn't enforce teen transition bans on their bases and in schools for their troops' kids. i also think this isn't due to "woke imperialism" or any other ideological reason, they just know that the hogs are completely off their rocker and that it's impossible to maintain a functional state with them in charge.
