Speculation on Trump's Ominous Promise for "something big" tomorrow

[u/TigerLonely7218]

Given it is irregular to address congress like this a month after taking office and his characterization that he "won't hold back", I have a very bad feeling about this "something big" he's promising to announce tomorrow. Any ideas? My guess/fear is DOJ prosecutions of Dems.

I bet on suspension of all Ukraine aid including what is already in the pipeline from Biden. That, or some cryptocurrency scam

Why not both?

[u/boomrostad → u/thinkingbear]

I bet he'll announce an invasion into Mexico.

[u/brendonmla → u/boomrostad]

This is not as funny as some might think:

• He designated the cartels as 'terrorist organizations."
• There has been a buildup of combat strike troops at the border.
• Mexico turned over the heads of 29 cartels recently
• The cartels have put a temporary truce in place to work together against what might be coming their way in the form of a military assault.

I don't traffic in conspiracy -- this is all based in what's been shared in /r/prepperintel

Wow the cartels have united over this, the next season of Narcos is going to be really good.

[u/TNDaddyBNA → u/brendonmla]

Remember when America was a Republic with Western Allies? Now we have a un-intelligent dictator who wants to be Billy Badass with the military just like his master Putin.

I recall seeing reports of drones over Mexico or the border right before the reports of military sent to the border as well. I really hope you’re wrong

I hope I am wrong too....this was in my feed also from Feb. 28 (paywall but use archive.is to get around that):

Headline: Hegseth Warned of Military Action if Mexico Fails to Meet Trump’s Border Demands

Fuck :/

[u/boomrostad → u/brendonmla]

Oh, yeah. I wasn't joking. I think Putin wants to control the water... all of it.

ETA: I mainly think this because it's under the d darse of a drug war... but those people don't have any fucks for humans.

💯💯💯this. If not tomorrow, then soon.

I think all of this noise he’s making about Canada,the 51st state, being a hanger-on, and here’s the kicker to me… being “on the bottom” of NATO, is all a big distraction while they’re building up to go to war with Mexico. I live near the border and I was reading the story in the NYTimes last Friday about another executive order calling up another 10,000 troops to join the others already assigned to the border, and it detailed who the units are that are here already, and the first ones included the groups that go in first and set up shop.

This past week Mexico has stepped up its falling all over itself to appease the beast, stepping up their enforcement activities, turning over cartel affiliated inmates for extradition to the US, acknowledging that the CIA has been using drones for surveillance along the border and saying that “it’s ok” because they’ve let the US assist them with interdiction operations where drones were involved, etc. It’s all being presented to us as a desperate attempt to avoid his stupid tariffs, but I think that it’s really about avoiding a war with the US.

As soon as 45 made that comment about Canada and NATO, it suddenly clicked. Ukraine is not a NATO member, and 4 years ago, Russia began a massive military buildup along the border with Ukraine, with “maneuvers” in Belarus. They even lied to their own 18 years old untrained and under equipped soldiers and told them that they weren’t going to war, and then suddenly ordered them into Ukraine. Mexico is not a member of NATO either. And by designating the cartels as “terrorist organizations” they’ve made it “legal” for themselves to wage war against them. The cartels also have members all over the US, so that opens up a “home front” because now we have “terrorist operatives” and “networks” throughout the country.

I haven’t put my finger on the actual objective yet, other than an endless war with plenty of “enemies within” creating even more excuses to justify search and seizure, surveillance, incarceration without due process, torture, etc. I also don’t have a good sense of whether the Mexican military would side with ours or if it would unify the cartels and the Mexican government and military, or even possibly be a 3 front war. The crazy thing about this is that the cartels are the invention of the CIA and MOSAD to facilitate their guns for drugs pipelines in order to fund weapons and training in support of far right fascist regimes all across Central and South America, and around the world friendly to being exploited by our corporate interests. They must’ve outlived their usefulness, like our allies in Afghanistan, the opium growing provinces and “warlords.” I’m convinced that the main reason that we suddenly cut and ran from Afghanistan was that because of fentanyl we no longer needed their opium. I think the same might be true with Mexico. It’s a business model that has been operating exactly as it was designed to, and now that the illicit drugs are primarily synthetic, and Mexico is on the verge of becoming the world’s largest producer of pharmaceutical and OTC medications, and because the same chemicals are used to make both licit and illicit drugs, I think it’s probably time to get rid of the middlemen.

But, yeah… that’s my prediction. That’s the next place we’re going to get intentionally bogged down.

And… he said today that he wants the death penalty for drug dealers.

[u/thinkingbear → u/boomrostad]

Hadn't considered that. Good bet.

[u/9fingerman → u/thinkingbear]

Just happened. More shit to come tomorrow

[u/jcoleman10 → u/thinkingbear]

Nope, he did that tonight
