Posse Comitatus says otherwise.
While I am fully aware of how deep the conspiracy against the President goes, it is a fantasy to think there will be the kind of broad round up of political opponents that you are claiming. Just my opinion, of course.
The federal statute
Posse Comitatus (enacted under Rutherford B. Hayes) was repealed (and, as I personally recall,
quietly repealed) under George W. Bush in 2007, then reinstated in 2008, then tweaked by Obama in 2011. And it turns out that the
Insurrection Act of 1807 becomes important in applying or not applying
Posse Comitatus.

(It has been reported--and I cannot confirm this--that top military officers under Obama were forced to sign bizarre legal agreements--supposedly in accordance with existing federal statues--that they would be willing to fire on American citizens if ordered to do so. [The agreement was supposedly used during Obama's purge of the military. Some patriotic officers did sign it as legally proper; others didn't--supposedly because of who the Commander-in-Chief was at that time.])
See also the questions posed by Graham and answered by Kavanaugh about military tribunals for treason. This was actually one of the more important exchanges in the Senate's Confirmation Hearing. I understand that Youtube has deleted the clip of the exchange between Graham and Kavanaugh. (You can bet that Graham--a former military lawyer--knew the case law, and it is significant that he was perfectly happy with Kavanaugh's terse answers.)

You disparaged the idea of a "round-up" of "political opponents." I'm afraid that your spin showcases your confusion, my friend. It's a manifestation of the boiling-frog confusion that has been patiently and deeply woven into the public mindset.
My point here is that our "political opponents" are not just people who disagree--even vigorously disagree--with conservatives/Republicans. (Their groundling supporters are like that, but the DNC is just using them as their useful idiots.) Our "political opponents" operating the Democratic Socialist juggernaut certainly do
disagree with conservative/Republicans, but it's precisely because we
love America, whereas they actually
hate America.
I'm sure you have noticed that today's Democrat politicians are not like Harry Truman or JFK or Scoop Jackson, but I'm convinced that you haven't let the implications of that sink in: our political opponents are the domestic minions of a
massive global conspiracy to
destroy the United States. A respected college professor has intimidated to me that he and his ilk intend to seize my firearms and shoot me with them. He said that he is confident that this will happen. Why is he so confident? Because these America-hating spiritual
bastards (a Biblical word, of course) are
everywhere in his enormous and powerful conspiratorial world. Remember: The
Communist program for rotting our nation emphasized that controlling academia was crucial to destroying our Republic. And we have finally reached a tipping point. We are actually hanging over an abyss of national disaster.
(Too-democratic polity has always been regarded as "the road to Socialism," but today's Democrat politicians are not merely socialistic goody-two-shoes. The Democrats as a whole are much like today's Muslims: some Muslims are just mild-mannered folks with odd religious notions. Unfortunately, more and more of the Muslims--and more and more Democrats--have become
RADICALIZED and risen to the very tops of their respective organizations. This is why the power mongers of both Islam and the Democratic Party actually get along pretty well. They will do everything in their power to destroy their common enemy.
Obama is the embodiment of this America-hating evil.)
In other words, that PhD professor was not exaggerating, Mesaclone--and it's the prevalence of people like him that accounts for so many like-minded politicos being elected--at the top of which structure are self-righteous, demon-infested murderers. Haven't you noticed how vitriolically anti-Constitutional practically all the Democrat politicos are? They are part of an evil plan.
And the very top of the plan is Agenda 21.
Our nation's retributive justice against the obscenely malevolent phonies (masquerading as lovely "Progressives") will not be a matter of ramped-up politics as usual. As I have already intimated, the nature of the Deep State's conspiracy is that of an unseen
WAR--a peculiar domestic subset of an existing shooting war stemming from 9-11--and this war will eventually and necessarily involve the U.S. military. I submit that this is the real reason why the Deep State is so desperately trying to frame Kavanaugh. They
do know Kavanaugh's stance regarding military justice against civilians committing sedition and treason--and also realize that any delay in confirming Kavanaugh is buying them time to avoid a devastating October surprise--i.e., a tsunami of arrests and probably martial law enforcing voter integrity. Trump will need to have a 5-to-4 majority on the SCOTUS for both of these.
The delay in Kavanaugh's confirmation is likely the most important one of about four main reasons for Trump's delay in the public use of the military in opening
thousands of still-sealed federal indictments. I am pretty sure he is also waiting upon the public release of the mostly-unredacted FISA application; the final DHS report to be publicly aired concerning election fraud; and (perhaps) a successful test of the Emergency Alert System (to be tested in October).

Finally, let me gently remind TBR members about the "Boiling Frog" phenomenon. It is an insidious problem.
Now is not the time for normal political measures. The "normal" mindset is a froggian complacency masquerading as a proper, calm, "In-God-We-Trust" confidence. A more
responsible, spiritually serious approach is needed in the providence of God. And although I never voted for Trump--and I am not at all ashamed that I didn't--I am glad to see that our inarguably weird and often terribly crass President intends to put out the hellish fire that is still underneath us--and to drag our nation of dopey frogs out of what has become a heat-warped, leaky, and sadly un-Constitutional pot.
I am hopeful that this will buy us time for the spiritual revival that our nation needs--starting in our
churches.
