Time Has Come

During the war in Iraq, seven U.S. Marines had experienced more death and destruction than they could bear. They were sick of being pawns in someone else’s game; this war had taken its toll on them. A pact was made, things were going to change in the U.S., after the death they witnessed and losing their friend, these marines were going to see to it!
Twenty years later, they had worked their way up to become Generals, Admirals and of all things, Secretary of State. They had also positioned friends and trustworthy people in all necessary positions. Time has come for the gathering in Washington D.C. With military presence all over the borders, airports and ports of entry, the former Marines gathered at the Capital Building.
Behind the scenes, both houses of congress are being placed under house arrest by the Military Police, including the President of the United States. Panic hits the street before the nation is informed, the news media is covering everything with no knowledge of what is taking place. They are flying over the borders and reporting the military presence, and the chaos at the airports. People are flocking to the stores and gas stations to stock up wondering if we are at war. Even after the betrayal by one their own, who is a key player in this effort, things moved forward. They later discovered the Secretary of State, one of the original seven Marines, had a drinking problem and had informed the President of the plan. Once the broadcasting started and they informed the public thru the media what was going on, things at the stores started to slow down. People were overall very happy to see something being done about the corrupt government, capitalism with no morals, and lobbyists running the country.
It is discovered that money has been taken from Social Security thru embezzlement over the years. This knowledge resulted in the murder of a woman who had been helping with the software that brought it all to light. A new government is eventually formed by the people, once the voting was all tallied and majority agreed.
China is not happy; they have to stop production and shipments to the U.S. Containers are piling up higher than allowed at the ports, and then they learn that ships are being denied entry in the U.S. The Chinese president is murdered because the Chinese government thinks he was too lenient toward the happenings in the United States. The next person taking over China has his sights set on revenge and is preparing for war. While the nation mourns the death of the President, they are preparing war ships in the docs. This movement is being observed in the United States!
