So I have the cover story in next month's TNR.
I interviewed the heads of police groups; immigration defense attorneys, ex-judges and ex-prosecutors; former DOJ and DHS officials, and the former head of Border Patrol.
They're all horrified at what we've seen, and they all fear what's coming.

DOD contractors “mistakenly” landed on a Mexican beach, declared it US property and planted “restricted area” DOD signs, triggering a tense confrontation with armed Mexican forces.
Mexico removed the signs, insisting the area is theirs.
Yet another example of total incompetence.

Yes. This exercise is coup-proofing the military.
The best thing about Trump addressing the generals (I'm watching it right now) is that by the end of this speech there will be no question in any of their minds that he is batshit insane, and unworthy of their loyalty. And when push comes to shove, they will not back him.
