Because the GOP holds the reins of power and the controls the legal system, they can purge our agencies of anyone NOT loyal to them or the GOP. You can pressure people and intimidate them to quit in so many ways. You can make their lives miserable on the job. I am sure that working in the federal system is a real trial by now. It is pretty easy to find out where your loyalties lie if you have been voting. If you are a registered Democrat the information is available in not public.
Sure I have been accused of being hyperbolic. But you have to think about how the GOP works. Today's events certainly show that they are willing to do anything. Sorry folks, but outright murder is in their lexicon in the end. Underestimating them is foolhardy.

(67,109 posts)has already targeted those to punish. My hope is Americans will wake up, hopefully before it's too late. ... however, when I mention this to many, they look at me like I'm a loony. And, that, is, how, it happens. It's pathetic watching it roll out in the US.

(67,109 posts)against people, and now we see them emerging here. I have no doubt that with Trump, trains rolling in the night and extermination camps could exist. The US has a very very nasty underbelly of hatred and evilness. And Trump has not only brought it out, but magnified and given them power. How long before the Trump youth camps start ... This country is truing into a very freaky place.
