On Oct. 8, U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) identified and denounced what he titled “An American Coup Attempt” against President Donald Trump, and warned that there was little time to expose this before the Nov. 3 election, in an opinion piece in the Oct. 8 Wall Street Journal. Americans should heed his advice.
Senator Johnson, Chair of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, in his “Opinion” article warned Americans that there was little time to expose the effort to overthrow Trump, which began even before his election, by certain officials in the permanent bureaucracy. These “subordinate officials” do not see themselves as answerable to the President, Johnson writes, but have actually established a bureaucracy which is accountable to no other branch of government—and, it’s permanent.
