Business Insider: Then-CIA director Gina Haspel said the US was 'on the way to a right-wing coup' after Trump lost the election: book
* Trump's CIA director believed the US was headed toward a "right-wing coup" after he lost the election.
* That's according to Bob Woodward and Robert Costa's upcoming book, "Peril."
* Then-CIA director Gina Haspel was one of several top officials who were afraid of what Trump might do.
The former CIA director expressed concern that the US was headed toward a right-wing coup after then President Donald Trump lost the 2020 election, according to a new book obtained by The Washington Post.
The book, "Peril," by The Post's Bob Woodward and Robert Costa, is set to be released next week and documents the chaotic final months of Trump's presidency and the beginning of Joe Biden's term.
The Post reported that the top officials in the US military and intelligence apparatus were afraid of what Trump might do in his quest to overturn the election results and the effect that his lies about the election could have on his agitated base.

WNU Editor: This can't be true. I have trouble believing someone like former CIA Director Gina Haspel with decades of experience in intelligence is this stupid.

I'm not surprised, there are so much people on the "establishment" who doesn't want a "shaking the tree" President.
Is this what happens to everyone in the swamp?
put aside for a moment your biases. A fairly large number of bright, gifted, people in very high places all said or claimed what was said about Trump. In defense of Trump ? We have a former president who a year after the election still refuses to admit he lost the election. What does that tell your about either side in this issue?
These globalist scum muck raker establishment types all need to be sent to an island and dumped there.
I believe they did this, the shadow government, now directing Dementia Puppet Joe.
put aside for a moment your biases.
We have a counting center in Georgia, which claimed to have a water main break and shoos out the observers. They leave and the the Democrat party stalwart vote counter run through the same batch of votes 6 times on video. What do you think happened?
The count center has no work orders, maintenance orders or any other documentation of the work. For dumb kids with fluff Ivy league degrees or other people, who never get their hands dirty, they never thought of how maintenance is dealt with or documented. Once a soy boy dummies up a maintenance record there are other questions about maintenance. Who was the maintenance worker, who fixed the leak? How many workers? What materials did they use? Describe the break. Show the flooding.
Several states suspended vote counting at the same time in the wee hour of the night. They do not run vote counters in shifts?
Benford Analysis says Democrats stole the election.
Try harder 7:03, you are barely registering at 8 X 10 ^ -43824 terawatts.
The Bernstein book is about Joe. There are leaks this week, It comes out next week and they hope to keep it alive 2 weeks afterwards.
They want people to believe they survived a close one by electing the demented airhead over Trump.
The book might actually help if they can keep Biden closeted through the holidays. If not he will stay underwater.
PS: Bernstein would have wrote a book anyway after an election, because it is all he knows how to do to make money and to look important. The coauthor did all the heavy lifting, which he puts up with in hopes of getting handed the baton with the respectability and money that comes with it.
Jan 6 protest was in fact the failed coup Bernstein is more fully reporting. Milley and CIA director scared!
Oh my!
Lion and tigers, Oh my!
Pure nonsense along with the phony FBI investigation that President Trump was a Russian asset. Same nonsense as Trump threatened the Ukraine President so he should be impeached.
The coup came from Haspel, Milley, Pelosi, FBI leadership, DOJ civil service, the entire Washington based Democratic Party hanger ones.
There are your traitors. There are the people deserving trials and first class hangings.
Congressional Republicans privately admitted Trump was an "unstable person": former GOP lawmaker
Come on Fred Lapides, you can do better than that. If Trump was so unstable explain how there were no new wars for 4 years. Explain how he tried to get us out of Somalia, Iraq, Syria, and Afghanistan.
Top US official admits lying to Trump on American troop levels in Syria
Let us here one of your signature laughs about how he did not get out of Syria. Then you can explain to us why diplomat Jim Jeffrey is not considered insubordinate or having committed treason.
Antiwar.org may be a bunch of useless socialists, but they are a bell weather for 5% to possibly 20% of the population (at least sympathetically). They ask why is the US illegally in Syria.
Last I saw is that Syria is a somewhat functioning country. They can hold sham elections just like the US. Also they have as much control over their borders as does the US.
In fact Syria has more control over it borders and territory than the US. The US has control over The Hamptons, Marthas Vinyard, DC and a few other small territories. Sort of like the Late Roman Empire had no control over its territory but the senators had control over their large estates as they transitioned into feudal lord and lead us into another 1,000 years of darkness.
I can think of four good reasons to be in Syria. Liberals would be able to come with two at the most and they would not support via law or persuasion.
Contrasting 8 years of the most dishonest presidency in my 75 years, Trump was a brash straight talker. Definitely not a Washington, D.C. type of the obamma years. Therein lies the basis for his unpopularity. He was a big meany. Wha wha wha. Mommy, I don't like him.
Over 10 000 militia in North America right now foolish kids
"However, they estimate that the KKK counts between 5,000 and 8,000 members nationwide. Back in the 1920’s, when cities across the south were erecting monuments to Confederate generals, the ... Klan had 4 million members. As Roger L. Simon points out, this would be an impressive decrease even if the population of the U.S. hadn’t swelled since the 1920’s. Back then, the Klan constituted about 4 percent of the entire U.S. population... That would make them less than 0.003 percent of the population, even on the higher end of the SPLC’s estimate."
- Daily Beast
.003% at the high end
And some people still check under their bed each night for KKK, their playboy mags or something.

Black militia-linked suspect who shot Fla. cop in head arrested in Georgia
It takes a sick, twisted freak to no count black militia when they are counting white militia. That is it takes a liberal, a liar, a monster ...
During Wilson’s presidency, he allowed his cabinet to segregate
the Treasury,
the Post Office,
the Bureau of Engraving and Printing,
the Navy,
the Interior,
the Marine Hospital,
the War Department and
the Government Printing Office.
This meant creating separate offices, lunchrooms, bathrooms and other facilities for white and Black workers. It also meant dismissing Black supervisors, cutting off Black employees’ access to promotions and better-paying jobs and reserving those jobs for white people.

"White historians like Wilson helped popularize the Confederate Klansmen, who became the heroes of D.W. Griffith’s 1915 film The Birth of a Nation. The movie’s villains were Black Americans portrayed by white actors in blackface.
Wilson agreed to screen the film
—which quoted his own book in its title cards—
at the White House."

Woodrow Wilson Was Even Worse Than You Think
Liar
OMG WNU your eyes are opening! There is a section of the Trump following here in the US(and in the comments) that mirror the terrorists we've been fighting. Fascists and their propaganda(WNU)feed these terrorists, but luckily we have the Great American bureaucracy that stopped Former President old shit his pants in his tracks.
Keep digging deeper WNU, but please stop pretending to be offended by any action you see as negative, against a constitution that is not yours. Its really misleading. Just know our bureaucracy is coded to our constitution and it will continue to keep the impact of criminal Presidents a dull whimper at scale. Nothing can keep us from the slow progress guaranteed by our pluralistic society. You may love us for our guns and money, this is a war smut site after all - but for Gods sake you can't have your cake and eat it too.
