"I'm wondering if Trump made good on his 2017 promise to form what he called an 'impenetrable cybersecurity unit' with Putin and allowed the massive Russian cyberattacks on the US government to happen." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/bill-bar…
"US national security was already in tatters before the 2020 Russian cyberattacks. As @AndreaChalupa notes, the installation of Trump in 2016 was a marriage between the Russian mafia in the East and the Russian mafia in the West." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/bill-bar…
"Russia may have been assisted in the attacks by people in the US govt. The reason I suggest this -- and it's only speculation now -- is because it happened before. One notable example is Russia's infiltration of the US Treasury in 2015." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/bill-bar…

"Russia committed the biggest cyberattack on the US in its history. Many warned this was coming but no one stopped it. We already had precursor hacks of depts and infrastructure and we have a Kremlin asset in office who invited them in." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/bill-bar…
"In the Obama era, Russia hacked the State Dept, the DOD, the White House, the DNC, the RNC, and the personal email of seemingly everyone in govt. With one big exception -- Hillary Clinton, due to her private server. How about that?" -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/bill-bar…
"We also had a prelude of Russian tactics used on the US with Ukraine. Hackers changed the Ukraine election results in 2014. Ukraine was able to catch this early and stop it because they're used to Kremlin aggression." -- @AndreaChalupa on @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/bill-bar…

"The attempted coup has moved into its violence stage. First stage was rigging -- voter suppression, USPS sabotage, etc. Failed. Second phase was courts; that failed too. Now we're on to white supremacist street violence by Trump backers." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/bill-bar…
"The white supremacists in the streets are backed by the Sedition Caucus -- the 150+ Republicans who are acting like confederates. They should be treated like confederates, marked as traitors and made to face serious consequences." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/bill-bar…
"It's sedition. It cannot be laughed off or treated as a grift or viewed as inconsequential because they lost in court. They are building a narrative and acting with violence and it needs to be dismantled before it can grow even more." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/bill-bar…

"No one from the inner core of the Trump crime cult ever really leaves. You saw this with Manafort, Stone, Bannon, Flynn, etc. Barr is part of an inner sanctum of corrupt Republicans that goes back to the 1980s, especially Iran-Contra." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/bill-bar…
"Barr spent his career being the GOP clean-up guy. Under Trump, he covered up the Mueller probe and the Jeffrey Epstein case. Before that, he covered up Iran-Contra and multiple cases of white-collar crime. He moves in and out of office." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/bill-bar…
"Barr alternates between criming from the inside in the White House and criming on the outside as a 'consultant'. It's likely that Barr will continue his crime spree from a distance now that he's accomplished his Trump admin goals." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/bill-bar…

I have lost track of the times in this attempted coup where I've speculated on what they'll do next or simply described what they're doing now and heard "But they can't do that; it's against the law!"

Yes. That is why it is a coup. A coup is, by definition, against the law.
A coup is *against* the law -- not just illegal, but against the belief that established legal documents and legal precedent hold value over their own attempted power grab. When a coup is successful, they rewrite the law so that they are no longer breaking it.
There is nothing that they will not try because it is "against the law", because power trumps law in their view (so to speak) and because -- most importantly -- there have been few to no repercussions for their prior crimes committed in plain sight both in office and before.

"Donald Trump is a terrorist attack on America. What he's doing is what he intended to do all along. He was put in to weaponize the worst of America against those who are trying to live in a free and safe country." -- @AndreaChalupa on @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/donald-t…
"You can dislike Biden all you want. But what it comes down to is you have one admin that wants to kill you and profit off your death, and one that wants to cure you. This is another reason Biden must be protected from Trump sabotage." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/donald-t…
"We're fighting nazis on US soil while the covid death count approaches WWII levels. Trump has actual stormtroopers targeting public officials. Trump studied Hitler; Trump used to sleep with his speeches by his bed." -- @AndreaChalupa on @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/donald-t…
