We're going to need a host of Emmanuel Goldsteins, I should think, with the Democrat takeover of America.
I understand that Trump supporters are storming the Capitol Building. Good. Let the Democrats and the time-serving Vichy bastards who make up much of the GOP know that the Resistance to Socialism is real, and that direct action in defense of our liberty is a very viable option.
Update A young woman was shot and killed by a policeman today in DC, trying to get into the Capitol building. No doubt Trump will be blamed, because he has refused to roll over for the election cheats and their enablers, and his supporters are enraged, not only by the massive evidence of fraud, but by the contemptible complacency of the GOPe - sufficiently enraged to march on Washington, where they saw, among other things, ruling class stooges like McConnell absolutely refusing to give a fair hearing to those Republicans who wished to exercise their right to challenge the electoral votes (a right that has been exercised before). One of my own Republican senators, the absurd Richard Burr - a former lawn mower salesman who would have done us all a favor by staying in that trade and eschewing politics altogether - issued the typical GOPe attack on Republicans who wished to challenge the electors, which attack involves howling about the sacredness of the election process and ignoring its utter corruption.
I deeply regret the killing of that young woman, who put her life on the line today. But instead of blaming Trump for pointing out the obvious - that the election was stolen - blame the people who made the theft possible and their abettors-after-the-fact, the politicians and the judges who denied Trump his day in court.
And, Mitch McConnell - having lost both runoff elections in Georgia, and, thereby, the Senate, I ask, where is your god, now? The Senate majority that was going to allow you to continue strutting around like the big Senatorial cheese, almost visibly indifferent as to who was president?
Update III Friend and commenter Deborah, in the comments:
Ten years of experience rallying against the Left on the street tells me the violence and vandalism was perpetrated by infiltrators. The former FBI agent's assertion reinforces it. So does the clip that shows people calmly walking through the Rotunda within the roped walkway. They could have easily stepped over or removed the ropes, but didn't.
God rest the lady who was shot yesterday.
Sadly but not unsurprising, there is little attention being given it, probably because she was 1) a Trump supporter, 2) she wasn't a woman of color, and 3) the revelry of Biden's/Democrat victory drowned it out.
Now what?
I consider the young woman a martyr to the cause of justice and freedom, the first casualty of the new civil war.
The Republican Party is dead. I'm not sure change through mere political activity is even possible anymore.
When people start having to wait for months for essential medical services because of socialized medicine; when their children begin lecturing them at the dinner table about the evils of white privilege and other horrors they learned at school; when they get letters informing them that they have 30 days to turn in their high-capacity rifles or face fines and/or imprisonment; when they're standing in line waiting for an unemployment check because they can't compete with low-priced foreign labor; when the Middle East blows up and American lives are once again thrown away in futile attempts to keep the peace; well, I wonder whether yesterday is going to look as frightening in retrospect as the ruling class would have us believe.
This is good news from Georgia.
ReplyDeleteMore, please.
Watching the events at the Capitol on a local news channel, they show news for 2 or 3 hours in the afternoon and then go to old tv shows and movies.
ReplyDeleteThe tenor of the comments is slightly different from lefty mostly-peaceful protests.
It's getting ugly there. Shots fired inside the Capitol.
Apparently, it's okay to shoot people who love America but when they hate Amerikkka it's hands off.
Our fine governmental betters are going to react badly, then the protesters will react to that.
It's going to be an ugly time in the capitol of our nation tonight.
It sure has gotten ugly. A young woman was shot and killed by a policeman. An unarmed woman, from what I've read. God rest her soul.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a false flag.
ReplyDeleteHow many conservative patriots go around half naked wearing horned helmets and sporting Antifa tattoos?
Now the media will blame conservatives for the death of the young woman.
May well have been (see my second update).
ReplyDeleteMAGA partiots need to sound out sympathetic Democrats like Tulsi Gabbard. Not to win them over to the GOP who seem hopeless. If there is a 3rd party, this time it should include lots of Democrat voters. The GOP stinks.
ReplyDeleteTrump's policies had appeal to ordinary folks on both sides. It's the entrenched elites on both sides who are the problem, plus big unions who may have some sort of Tammany Hall type machine thing holding the Dem party together (and keeping Bernie Sanders out for one) - my guess is its public sector unions who engineered the election. A few million patriots joining could destabilise all that, expose the inner workings, maybe reclaim the party for the people. Just a thought.
Sorry, but what am I missing here? For the past four years #Resistence has been the true patriotism. "Mostly peaceful" protests are the truest form of democracy. Rioters have a legitimate right to take to the streets. Show me where it says protests have to be peaceful, right Fredo Cuomo? Peaceful protests "intensify" and things get destroyed and people get killed, isn't that the way it works, media?
ReplyDeleteIn other words, violence is the legitimate currency of politics. Right, CNN? Right, MSNBC? Right, DNC and establishment RINOs?
What has changed here? Personally I'd prefer politics without the violence but you've been endorsing and encouraging it for four years, what has changed? If this is not the way things are supposed to work, then how do they go?
Bingo.
ReplyDeletePersonally I'd prefer politics without the violence...
ReplyDeleteMe too, but that ship has sailed.
We've watched months of rioting excused, years of lefties attacking and killing non-lefties and getting off scott free.
Chicken, home, roosting, no assembly needed.
It's the 2 tiered system, Steve. It's ok when 'they' do it.
ReplyDeletePosobiec has some good stuff, scroll down:

I see talk in the Posobiec tweets about the 25th Amendment.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it time for Trump to invoke the Insurrection Act? Or his 2018 Executive Order?
The time for 4D chess is over.
News report has it that the woman was shot by a Capitol Police officer who fired thru a barricaded door to the House chamber at a group outside. The report says that the dead woman was behind the group and was hit in the neck. Thought experiment: suppose the mob was BLM/Antifa and the dead woman was Black. How would the news be reported?

Now what?
The woman who was shot yesterday was Ashli Babbitt, a 14-year veteran of the Air Force who was unarmed. She was shot trying to climb through a broken window beside a door, which last I checked, wasn't an executable offense. There's video of it on Youtube. No doubt the Capitol cop who shot her panicked, because who would believe people might be angry enough to storm the Capitol? Of course he will be defended by the same people who condemn cops on the street for shooting armed (black) criminals in an altercation (if he is ever even identified).
ReplyDeleteI want to say it was wrong to storm the Capitol building, because we're not a banana republic, and violence is never justified. I want to, but I can't. Our politicians haven't lifted a finger to stop the burning, looting, and beatings that have been going on in our cities since last spring. Mostly they haven't even publicly condemned it. Then the red-eyed mob came for them, and they screeched like little girls and hid behind their chairs, stunned that the violence could be turned against them. I want to say it's a wakeup call they've badly needed, but I wonder. Are they bright enough to heed it, or will this just be more posturing and blaming?
All that said, I wish Trump would have kept out of it. This will be just another excuse to blame him, just like they've blamed him for everything else.
ReplyDeleteTrump was never going to be a dictator, despite what some of his fans or his enemies imagine. He never wanted to be a Gaddaffi or even a Putin - he has his businesses which are sustained by the present legal admin system, for himself and his children. It would be crazy.
ReplyDeleteHe was never going to undermine that - he obviously thought from his experience that the system could be tweeked by getting the right lawyers or getting the right people together. He seems genuine in believing that his own interests and those of ordinary people coincide, that everyone could benefit from his experience and become more prosperous and safer. That the system could be restored to a better default.
What we have seen in past 4 yrs, that such a simple and straightfoward approach is stymied at every turn by entrenched interests, is what will stick in people's minds.
bruce,
ReplyDelete"stymied at every turn", possibly by design.
I find the whole: "Trump against all the evils of the universe" meme, being stymied by evil people at every turn, just pure theater and ridiculous.
Personally, I believe there's a real possibility that Trump is controlled opposition, working for the Great Reset and NWO.
I know you guys have banked on Trump and I hope to God he's a real patriot, but:
Why did Trump appoint Sessions, Barr and Wray?
Why did Trump appoint leftists to Scotus who have apparently subsequently betrayed the U.S. (Kavanaugh was a Bush lackey for pete's sake and his wife was Bush's personal secretary)?
Why did Trump cover for Fauci, as Fauci organized the destruction of much of the U.S. economy.
Why is Trump pushing the damn "vaccine"?
Why didn't Trump invoke the Insurrection Act the day after the blatantly stolen election?
Now it looks like he's been running down the clock and will fold, leaving the U.S. in total control of communist lunatics.
Trump has a background in show business and professional wrestling.
In pro wrestling there's a thing called "kayfabe", a bit like kabuki theater, where the wrestlers pretend to be bitter rivals and fake hostility towards each other for the adoring crowds.
Is it possible that Trump has been doing kayfabe all along to keep conservative patriots in line and in hope until it's too late and the destruction of the U.S.A. is complete?
If Trump leaves the U.S.A. enslaved to global communists, what has he accomplished?
I hate to say this and I know you guys have placed a lot of hope in Trump, but we need to consider the possibility that Trump was referring to himself when he recited "The Snake" poem.
I hope I'm wrong.
Mike, you've been upfront about your concerns for a long time, and I respect that, but I can't agree. Somebody like Romney would be "controlled opposition". Trump's main strength, in my opinion, is that he didn't fear the Democrat/Media complex at all. But I've never considered Trump a great genius who was always playing 8 dimensional chess. I think he made some bad personnel picks early on because he was an outsider and relied on people who were establishment insiders to guide him. And I think he, like a lot of people, was baffled by all the competing claims of expertise in connection with the COVID virus. I suppose he could have invoked the Insurrection Act - I don't know all the legal ins and outs - but there's an old saying in the military: never give an order unless you know it's going to be obeyed. The military is rotten with time-serving, establishment brass, and I doubt he would have gotten anywhere near the support he needed to pull it off.
ReplyDeleteIn spite of his strengths, however, I think Trump ultimately failed - or, to be precise, was defeated - not because of his faults, but because he faced overwhelming opposition from the ruling class: all of the mainstream media, all of the Democrats, all of the establishment Republicans, the Vichy conservatives, the bureaucracy, and on and on. Never in my lifetime have I ever witnessed the kind of single-minded vehemence with which they all attacked this president. I just don't believe they're good enough actors to have pulled it off; they genuinely hated him and those of us - in our tens of millions - who have supported him (and, I think, continue to support him, in spite of the lies of the Propaganda Ministry).
I have always considered Washington a swamp, and its eradication to be a Herculean task, but even I have been flabbergasted by its actual depth and breadth, and I believe Trump was, too. In fact, I now rather embrace the prospect of civil war, as it seems increasingly to be the only alternative for those of us who prize the substance of freedom above the form of orderly, but tyrannical, government.
But Paco:
ReplyDeleteA civil war can't be successful with today's leftist control and monitoring of MSM, social media, all electronic communications, and the telephone, unless all patriots rise up simultaneously.
And you can be sure Deep State are on the job monitoring any possibility of a fight-back.
Individually, or in small groups, patriots will be crushed like bugs.
My hopes and prayers are with you.
But the NWO cabal have shifted their focus to my own neighborhood now, and it's likely I'll be fighting for my own survival.
Luckily, I reckon I'll be dead soon.
I'm getting pretty sick of all the evil in this damn world.
Oh, I agree there has to be a mass movement. Sporadic outbreaks of resistance would be mostly futile. But there are over a hundred million firearms in the hands of the people, and most of them are not blunderbusses, dueling pistols and goose guns. There are hundreds of thousands of military veterans with expertise in communications, supply and logistics, engineering, guerilla warfare and special ops. Add to that tens of thousands of law enforcement officials, at least some of who would be on our side and could assist simply by slow-walking or ignoring the enforcement of onerous new laws. And, perhaps most importantly, there are hundreds if not thousands of tech-savvy people who could figure out (if they don't already know) how to hack into power grids, communications systems and social media. Last, but not least, is the ability of citizens to make their displeasure known to the ruling class in D.C. and elsewhere directly; members of the ruling class love to be seen and are frequently out and about in public places. It shouldn't be that difficult to...engage them in debate while they're at dinner, let us say, or put a "kick me" sign on their backs, or any of a number of things that I assure you will be completely non-threatening.
ReplyDeleteBut, to be sure, prayers are needed and are much appreciated
Gnosticism is the ultimate 'conspiracy theory' and the grand-daddy of them all.
ReplyDeleteIn that system, God is not God, merely the ruler of an evil prison which is this world, which we can escaape by gnosis to the 'real' God:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aeon_(Gnosticism)
That's the logical problem argued 'to abusrdity'. As they say in The Matrix, 'How deep does the rabbit hole go?'. One response is 'Who cares?' What differences does it make? - we just end up back where we started - get up every morning and do the same things.
Serioulsy Mike, how do you know, say I'm not part of the conspiracy? I have a leftist pedigree would make your hair stand on end! :) Jack Mundey and the CPA (thru Brian McGahen), my dear grandma was housekeepr to a Russian family mentioned in the Petrov telegams to Moscow. ...
Brian once took us to a meeting at the Soviet Embassy:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brian_McGahen
I even attended a meeting of the CPA at the Harold Park Hotel in 1997 - 3 old ladies and a young blek who was probably an ASIO informant - I was in a student study group. But then you could say, "Those aren't the 'real' Communists".
There's a logical problem see, same as 'the world is held up by elephants' - So what's holding up the elephants? 'Oh it's elephants all the way down'.
Look all my fellow students went off to Canberra as interns for ALP politicians, but I did a DipEd to get an income for my young family. But I know these powerful people and they are even more scared and confused than we are, because they've seen that there's really no one (except God?) in control. I think that's scary for many to accept so they turn to various theories, and I understand that.
- blek? I mean a young bloke, - similar to other ASIO types I've met and the CPA ladies probably knew it too. Mark Aarons talks about these ASIO freelancers who also spied on his family. Good luck to them all, they did what they wanted to do and maybe helped.
ReplyDeleteI also studied under Colin Tatz of genocide research fame (hated by many on the right), and he encouraged me a lot in my study of the conservative religious basis of modernity. Ministers used to come and consult with him while we waited fro him to mark our essays. He was a lovely guy and I felt he was a friend, would ring up and console me if we had an argument. He meant well anyway, while others used his work to attack the Right - in the end it's a free for all I say.
Just to sum up:
ReplyDelete'He's not the 'real' leader,
They're not the 'real Communists,
What you see are not the 'real' ones in charge,
then
This is not the 'real' world,
That isn't the 'real God...'
are all the same type of argument with the same problems.
OTOH I definitely think that leftist unions conspire to subvert our democracy - because of money not ideology, in Australia they run all the Superannuation funds which amount to billions. Especially public servants who have grown exponentially in the last 50 years and who should be banned from 'organising' as labour unions because it's just blackmail. Plus I think there are other criminal networks similar to the mafia, again because big money is involved, not ideology which is just a cover.
Thank you for the hat tip, Paco!
ReplyDeleteBtw, the person who shot the woman has not been definitely identified which always leads to speculation. I was going to chime in, but the pit is full already.
Mike, I sincerely hope your kayfabe theory is way way wrong.
ReplyDeleteIf Trump created a following of millions - many of them, as Paco points out, familiar with firearms - and has led them out into the desert to abandon them, that's a recipe for full on carnage.
Those people have got nowhere to go and nothing to lose.
