Republican Georgia state Sen. Colton Moore on Tuesday told “War Room” host Steve Bannon that he plans to push the legislature to defund Fulton District Attorney Fani Willis’ prosecution of former President Donald Trump and 18 co-defendants, arguing that Trump’s prosecution threatens to ignite a “civil war.” Moore complained that indicted fellow state Sen. Shawn Still is going to have to spend “a million dollars” to defend himself in the case. “It’s just like Nazi Germany,” Moore claimed. “I mean, they want to call us the Nazis and their actions are Nazism.”

      The US military is and none of these fucks you stand a chance against it.

      If they want to try civil war, the military would not be on their side. Despite the large Republican presence in the military, the vast vast majority would still side with there not being civil war.

        • Ehh, a few. Not the best parts. See the joint chiefs of staff letter about January 6. They aren’t going to fuck around with domestic terrorists. If the police won’t bring these nutjobs to heal, they will.

          The military is not going to split lol. They’re loyal to the constitution, not any party.

            That’s a pretty iffy statement if you’ve ever talked to a veteran or active duty member. Sure, most might be loyal to the constitution, but the military votes republican for the most part, and that included in 2016 and 2020.
