Know Why Krasnov Is Blowing Up Fishing Boats [View all]

[gab13by13]

Checklist for a dictator ;

Control the treasury, even take money that has been appropriated by Congress. Krasnov controls the purse strings - check. Crash the dollar and boost Crypto - check.

Control the justice department, appoint an AG who prosecutes people you tell her to prosecute, do not prosecute supporters - check.
Appoint an FBI Director who does your bidding, divert 25% of FBI agents to the gestapo border security - check.

Control the Intelligence Agencies, fire honest people replace them with cronies, appoint the head of the security agencies with someone who will release reports that the dictator wants - check.

Gain control of the military - fire the JAG officers - check, fire honest generals and admirals - check, send the military to the states for a bogus reason - check.

Control the courts, no check yet for the lower courts so the dictator ignores the courts. Control the last arbiter, the Supreme Court - check.

Final stage for a dictator, have the military kill anyone he orders them to kill - the answer to why Krasnov is blowing up fishing boats. Won't give it a checkmark yet even though his Gestapo border patrol may have killed abducted American citizens, waiting for confirmation.
