Myanmar’s military junta, or the Tatmadaw, controls the majority of the nation’s elections and parliament. Last February, in a military coup, they ousted Aung San Suu Kyi, of the National League for Democracy, this was over what the junta deemed an illegitimate election. Aung San Suu Kyi was the nation’s first democratically elected leader. Since the coup, human rights groups estimate that Myanmar’s military has arrested roughly 4,000 people, killed hundreds, and has arrested close to half a dozen foreign journalists. One of these journalists is an American, named Danny Fenester. In this episode, Drew and Alex wonder what is next for Myanmar. They also discuss how President Trump’s embattled ex-National Security Advisor, Michael Flynn, believes that the US needs a coup similar to Myanmar. Now, many Trump and QAnon supporters are echoing this need for a “military coup.” This is at a bad time, because new studies show that 15% of Americans believe some views of QAnon (which is more than some religions). Is this all just talk? Does anyone actually understand the severity of the Myanmar situation? OR could another coup hit Washington D.C.?
