Trump Amplifies Calls For Deep State Military Tribunals: ‘Liz Cheney Is Guilty of Treason’
Former President Donald Trump has escalated his promise to hold lawbreaking members of the Deep State to account, circulating posts on Truth Social calling for “televised military tribunals” for Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Senators Mitch McConnell and Chuck Schumer.
However, former Wyoming congresswoman Liz Cheney appears to be the first head on the chopping block.
“Elizabeth Lynne Cheney is guilty of treason,” the post said. “Retruth if you want televised military tribunals.”
A separate post included photos of 15 former and current elected officials that said, in all-capital letters, “they should be going to jail on Monday, not Steve Bannon!”
Those officials included Biden, Harris, Pence, Schumer and McConnell — the top leaders in the Senate — and Nancy Pelosi, the former House speaker.
The list in the second post also had members of the House committee that investigated the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol, including Liz Cheney and the former Illinois congressman Adam Kinzinger, another Republican, and the Democratic Representatives Adam Schiff, Jamie Raskin, Pete Aguilar, Zoe Lofgren and Bennie Thompson, who chaired the committee.
NY Times reports: In a statement, the Trump campaign did not address Trump’s posts, instead repeating allegations of misconduct by members of the committee, saying “Liz Cheney and the sham January 6th committee banned key witnesses, shielded important evidence, and destroyed documents” related to their investigation.
The posts, which were amplified by Trump’s Truth Social account on Sunday afternoon, were still listed on his profile on Monday afternoon.
The Biden campaign denounced the posts in a statement, saying that Trump “is doubling down on threats to our democracy,” adding that “the Supreme Court has now paved the way for him to do exactly what he is saying he will if he wins.”
Cheney responded with her own social media post on Sunday evening, saying “Donald — This is the type of thing that demonstrates yet again that you are not a stable adult — and are not fit for office.”
Trump has repeatedly called for the imprisonment of his political opponents, often singling out members of the Jan. 6 committee. But the two posts that Trump amplified on Sunday particularly stand out.
One proposed jailing an extensive list of high-ranking officials, including Trump’s former vice president, the top Republican in the Senate and the current president and vice president. The other invoked the dictatorial imagery of a televised military tribunal, which would strip Cheney of her right to due process similar to the military courts used to prosecute terror suspects at Guantánamo Bay.
Military too will also be up for treason & incompentence.
Note how the classic climatic Hitler scene deals with the Biden debate.

Talk about going “orange”
From a comment which points out in layman’s language of Supreme Court’s decision.
To start, the court wrote about powers that carry with them core, absolute immunity, the exercise of which cannot come under question in any forum. It specifically identified:
Pardons
Recognition of foreign governments
Removal of executive branch officials.
If it can’t be questioned . . . It also cannot be the grounds for impeachment, can it?
Let’s repeat: If it’s a core power, the exercise of the core power cannot be grounds for impeachment (*except if done in connection with taking a bribe).
In his first term, there was the threat that if President Trump fired . . .
Rosenstein
Barr
Fauci
That he would be prosecuted for obstruction of justice or impeached.
That threat is forever off the table now.
He can fire anyone he likes in the executive branch. The straightjacket is gone.
On that point, further, the majority opinion uses strong language consistent with the Unitary Executive theory of the Constitution. The President is “a person alone who comprises a branch of government.”
While there are areas of shared constitutional responsibility, the core powers of the Executive Branch, including personnel, are the President’s alone.
Boom.
That what seems to be disturbing to the media, politicians, in how some unelected officials can be called to account & fired.
Now a real orange light, can freely shine.
Are Merick Garland Chris Ray and Comey a tad worried?
“He can fire anyone he likes in the executive branch. The straightjacket is gone.”
This is the SC just clarifying what has always been the situation –correct ? It is just the Democrats and the MSM did not want to acknowledge that and/or they believed their own BS.
Also I think in some ways the removal of the Chevron Deference has just as much effect, if not more. The swamp can no longer twist the meaning of the law to suit themselves.
I hate to be a wet blanket but since the justice system seems to be compromised, the police seem to follow Democrat dictates & it now appears that the military are involved……
…….who is going to arrest them, who is going to bring them to trial & who will carry out any punishments dealt out?
Trump has loyal military. They have not gone woke and are waiting in the wings for their president to be sworn back into office. I imagine it is the same for many police. Trump has plans in place to clean out the corrupt in the ‘three letter agencies’
Many seem to miss the point, of how the recent name of for the sake of “National Security” that has driven as unaccountability into more than CIA, but also the Justice Department. They have found “absolute power” & do not have to account for it.
That has spread into FBI and other institutions where it can be unquestionably orchestrated by others & not held to account.
Immunity ruling is ‘terrifying,’ ‘unheard of’: Weissmann

The calling to account is what the system now fears the most.
Like the New Zealand’s health system, should be called to account, for the facts, evidence, behind their decisions, like why the came to totally ignore the “New Zealand Pandemic Influenza Plan” that had been updated in 2019.
Why did the accept the new definition of vaccine?
Why were the negligent? by not asking if the vaccine would stop transmission,
But continued with outrageous claims, from such so called “experts”.
Why did they create a Mis-information department, that ultimately worked at censoring debate & discussion.
All in the name of “vaccine hesitancy” of a dud leaky & dangerous vaxx.
The same goes for how the police operate, as in the Wellington Protests.
But also in general policing of crime in New Zealand, that is one day they may, & often not turn-up.
But do not call any one a spastic or a retard.
The systemic New Zealand “kindly way” is very dictatorial. in is to play at fluffing the pillow & the blanket.
If you are going to call the Healt system to account,
How about the education system too!
I’m in two minds as to whether Trump coming out with this is good politics, at this stage. I have no problem with what he is saying, it is just the timing or maybe he just wants the voters to start talking about what has gone on and the need to clean it up.
Ross .
Been a bit puzzled about this as well.
I wonder if Trumpy is doing this to scare Cheney etc who I am sure will do everything they can to stuff him up leading up to the election.
May be its a warning shot?
Sounded more like a full salvo of the16 inch guns from an Iwoa class Battleship.
