Subject: Re: Trump orders DOJ to go after oil companies
Remember- this is no longer your grandfather’s Justice Department. It’s stacked with Trump Loyalists.

Again, so what? The Justice Department doesn't have the power to decide who the President is.

and the big wild card- the military. They’ve already been purged of much of the competent flag ranked leadership, have already obeyed orders of questionable legality in Venezuela and Iran.

Nothing like this. Trump doesn't have the stones to lead a military dictatorship. He doesn't have that kind of power base in the military. There's no indication that any of the actual military leaders support Trump enough to do this. That's the kind of "roll the dice" that means you end up on the wrong end of a firing squad if you lose. Not only is there no one in military leadership who would do that (because they don't depend on Trump for their positions or power), but Trump wouldn't be willing to do this. This is TACO man we're talking about - he's not that kind of guy.

No one's throwing out the rule book so that Trump can get what he wants.
