(31,059 posts)Barr is already OPENLY conducting an illegitimate investigation into Joe and Hunter Biden, *despite* both being repeatedly cleared of wrongdoing. He opened a pipeline for Giuliani to feed disinfo about the Bidens directly to HIM. He's 100% compromised.
The US Military is answerable to the POTUS, and POTUS alone. There is no mechanism in place should the C in C go rogue, other than DoJ and *both* houses of Congress (via Impeachment or use of the 25th amendment - the first remedy failed due to a compromised Senate and the second wouldn't get off the ground since it requires several cabinet officers to sign off on it).
The peaceful transfer of power can ONLY take place if both the outgoing and incoming POTUS allow it to happen. Outgoing POTUS will never let it happen and will utilize McConnell's Senate and Barr's DoJ to do all in its power to create enough chaos around the election (and aftermath) to de-legitimatize it.
