Highlights: Donald Trump and his allies have begun mapping out specific plans for using the federal government to punish critics and opponents should he win a second term, with the former president naming individuals he wants to investigate or prosecute and his associates drafting plans to potentially invoke the Insurrection Act on his first day in office to allow him to deploy the military against civil demonstrations.

In private, Trump has told advisers and friends in recent months that he wants the Justice Department to investigate onetime officials and allies who have become critical of his time in office, including his former chief of staff, John Kelly, and former attorney general William P. Barr, as well as his ex-attorney Ty Cobb and former Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman Gen. Mark A. Milley, according to people who have talked to him, who, like others, spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe private conversations. Trump has also talked of prosecuting officials at the FBI and Justice Department, a person familiar with the matter said.

  • You’d think. For some people, they have a solid appetite no matter what. I have “forgotten to eat” about three times in my 50+ years.

    Just assuming I theoretically did a lot of drugs when I was younger you can also assume I also allegedly kept up my habit of eating. Other more famous examples include John Belushi, Chris Farley, etc.

      I wasn’t thinking about forgetting to eat. Stimulants like amphetamines boost your metabolism and make you more active. He’s clearly too fat and lazy to be on stimulants.

        If you eat healthy, stimulants could in theory sort of “substitute” for some exercise to stay skinny. If you overeat and do not exercise, and eat shitty food, as Trump does, the amount of Adderall you’d need to snort to stay thin is more than enough to stop your heart cold.
