What a story.....
"How a Top Secret SEAL Team 6 Mission Into North Korea Fell Apart.The 2019 operation, greenlit by President Trump, sought a strategic edge. It left unarmed North Koreans dead."

Two things are worth noticing right now:
1. The military brass *did not* respond well to Trump and Hegseth.
2. The deployment to #Portland keeps getting delayed.
The military will never say "no" to the president (unless he's literally ordering them to open fire on unarmed civilians or something equally obviously illegal). But there are ways to not comply that don't necessarily involve refusal. Brass showing that they aren't aligned with Trump may weaken his billionaire backers, who might be realizing now that weak dictators who can't lead their militaries tend to get toppled... and their oligarch-backers tend to end up against walls.
If folks being ordered to send troops to #PDX don't want to comply, delaying until the there's an initial response from the lawsuit would be basically impossible to detect. The deployment to LA went far too fast, running into logistical challenges like troops sleeping on the floor. The delays we've already seen could indicate either a more careful approach or quiet resistance.
Trump will continue to escalate at every chance he gets. I would be surprised if PDX didn't give him a fight. I doubt the troops will become more interested in serving a guy who's stabbed them in the back and wasted their time at every opportunity.
It is still possible troops just won't deploy. Trump will make something up about how just the threat of an intervention was enough to make things safe or something like that. If we see that, it's 100% the military telling him to kick rocks because he's not competent enough to know when to back down.
Honestly, I think Trump wants revenge for the resistance PDX put up at the end of his last term. Any backing down from that is absolutely a big loss for him.

'I witnessed war crimes' in Gaza, former worker at GHF [Gaza Humanitarian Foundation] aid site tells BBC.
"I witnessed the Israeli Defense Forces shooting at the crowds of Palestinians," Anthony Aguilar told the BBC.
He added that in his entire career he has never witnessed such a level of "brutality and use of indiscriminate and unnecessary force against a civilian population, an unarmed, starving population".

“…across social media, extraordinary scenes keep surfacing - unarmed men & women staring down heavily armed masked men. People getting out of their cars or running out of restaurants to confront ICE agents.
…not lone individuals who suddenly snap. This is grassroots non-violent resistance. When the rule of law has failed in the courts and in democracy, ordinary people have stepped up to defend their neighbours.”
'There were “media reports of people dying for lack of treatment” and on the “humanitarian impact of curfews affecting over 1 million people”. "There were Israeli soldiers indulging in “theft and looting from homes and shops and the vandalism of people’s homes”.
'And “many reports of the killing of unarmed Palestinians”.'
'But this is not Gaza in 2025. It was the occupied West Bank in 2002, described in an internal Foreign Office report'
