UCLA Prof Appears To Call For Military to Launch ‘Violent’ Coup Against Trump

In a shocking social media post on Saturday evening, a UCLA professor called for the U.S. military to forcibly remove President Donald Trump from office.

The call came from Peter Arenella, a law professor at the prestigious university who, according to his faculty biography, teaches multiple law courses as well as seminars on “moral agency” and “criminal law excuse theory.”

“At this point, my only hope for the US to avoid becoming an ally to Russia is a violent resistance by our military. Tragic to say that because the military are trained to avoid any politically motivated intervention,” the professor said of the democratically elected president.

“Firing all the Joint Chief [sic] of Staff military leaders and replacing them with military acolytes of Trump anticipated that possibility and acted swiftly to minimize that type of intervention. Ultimately, we will get what we deserve by giving Trump a second chance to destroy our democracy,” he wrote.

According to his biography, Arenella is a recipient of the School of Law’s Rutter Award for Excellence in Teaching.

“He is a nationally recognized criminal law and procedure scholar, writing about the relationship between criminal and moral responsibility by exploring competing conceptions of criminal culpability and moral agency at work in immaturity and mental disability defenses (e.g., insanity, diminished capacity, mental retardation),” Arenella’s biography reads.

“His moral agency work in philosophical and legal journals has generated considerable commentary and is frequently cited in ongoing debates about the justifications for criminal punishment. He has also written extensively on the privilege against self incrimination and grand jury practices,” it adds.

The long-serving law professor has a history of making extreme, anti-Trump comments and endorsing far-left ideology.

“If history of the US Presidency doesn’t end with a fascist, racist and authoritarian President putting the last nail in the coffin of our democracy, Biden will be remembered for being one of our best leaders,” Arenella wrote in an Inauguration Day X post earlier this year.

“His pre-emptive pardons of American heroes like Fauci and the Jan 6th committee members reflects his courage and wisdom because he knows Trump will weaponize the DOJ to go after his adversaries.”
