There has been Reports of the President putting Marine reserves on Standby to deal with a coup that is currently taking place by the Intelligence community and the Democrats.
Is the timing strange for this to take place? The answer is yes, further the direct chain of command leads directly to the President. The DoD also answers directly to the WH, as such it could be called up at any time if needed.
The document that speaks of these orders has been updated, replacing orders that were written to cover activation of Marine units. To assist civilian authorities in case of an emergency, such as hurricane, earthquake or civil defense.
Could the President call up these Marine units to stop and arrest those that are believed to be part of such a coup? The answer is yes, would he actually do it? I believe the answer is also yes. I further think that he may be doing it sooner rather than later. I think such a action could.. and I stress could touch off another civil war.
However, if it is simply a matter of liberal Democrats, most of which are not armed, the uprising could be brought under control very quickly. However, if outside entities or countries get involved supplying arms and support, it might become bloody indeed.
Not to mention if the U.N. sends peacekeepers, or NATO gets involved, such a conflict could get totally out of hand.
Conclusion: There is just too many variables to calculate the exact response, such a event as the Marines arresting the coup conspirators could cause.
Further, we are speculating that the reason for the revisions in the orders, was specifically to allow for mass arrests of those associated with an alleged coup we are currently witnessing. Truth is it could have been done to allow more freedom to the President to call up Marine reserve units in case of disaster.
The fact is that the timing seems to consequencidental to be just a common revision of standard operating procedures. Only time will tell, yet I would suggest getting prepared, for either eventually.
