Maybe you should answer this ? Since Biden/Harris made it ok to use the military on civilians.

WEAPONIZATION: With just months left in office, the Biden-Harris regime quietly updated a 17-year-old Bush-era directive prohibiting the assassination of Americans. The regime has now removed key language from DoD Directive 5240.01 that explicitly barred such acts, paving the way for the government to target U.S. citizens under "special circumstances."
This change marks a dangerous shift, where Americans could be assassinated both at home and abroad, all under the guise of protecting democracy. The updated directive strips away crucial protections, setting a perilous precedent and raising serious concerns about unchecked government power. Governor Glenn Youngkin is among those sounding the alarm
““The provisions in [the directive] are not new, and do not authorize the Secretary of Defense to use lethal force against U.S. citizens, contrary to rumors and rhetoric circulating on social media,” Sue Gough, a Department of Defense spokesperson, said Wednesday night.”
Joseph Nunn, a lawyer with the Liberty & National Security program at the nonpartisan Brennan Center for Justice, and a leading expert on domestic uses of the military, had a clear response to the social media storm.
“There’s nothing here,” he said. “People like Michael Flynn should know how to read a DOD directive.”
Contrary to claims online, DOD Directive 5240.01, which had last been updated in 2020, does not grant any new powers to the military. That’s not how military directives work. Like them or not, all military policies are subject to U.S. law; they do not create new legal authorities.
Directive 5240.01 has a narrow focus: It only addresses military intelligence, and the section that has circulated online specifically deals with intelligence assistance to civilian law enforcement.
The paragraph that contains the term “lethal force” refers to a requirement that the Secretary of Defense—the highest level of the Defense Department—must now authorize military intelligence assistance to civilian law enforcement when lethal force might be involved.
Pentagon update to obscure military policy sets off firestorm, conspiracy theories on far-right social media platforms ahead of election.
