Interesting datum

 "More U.S. Military Troops Needed To Install Joe Biden Than We Have in Afghanistan".

Why, Biden seems more like a...usurper...than the winner of a transparently fair election.

Correction  That would be more U.S. troops than there are in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Syria combined. (H/T: Veeshir)

More than Iraq, Syria and Afghanistan.
Combined.

No big deal, that's typical of your basic banana republic.

Did you see they're building a wall around the Capitol? Funny, I thought walls a) didn't work and b) were immoral. Boy, am I some kind of dope, or what?

Paco said...

A wall! What a novel idea for controlling the movement of people. I wonder why no one ever thought of it before.

Veeshir said...

A total false flag designed to give them an excuse to ignore the first and second amendment, where they're enemies (us) are concerned.

They're 'vetting' NG fearing an 'attack' by 'insiders'.

- The ruling caste.

This is just heartbreaking.
Trump needs to invoke the Insurrection Act and bring all these traitors to justice.
God, please help Trump show some real spine and patriotism.

Mike, in western civilisation we have been subject to the Rule of Law - and not the 'Rule of Men' - for centuries:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_of_law
Especially the USA which was founded on an aversion to any monarchy or absolutism whatsoever. All power in the USA is circumscribed by checks which are supposed to prevent tyranny or dictatorship.

Trump has already exercised every legal power he has - we could dabte whether he was well served by his legal team or not. And we might find fault with this or that action (too much? too little? too late?) but overall he has given it his best shot within the above constraints. Abandoning the Rule of Law is not an option at this stage - because of centuries of legal tradition of the United State, which hold it together.

However, even the ancients saw that it was possible for a class to use the laws to their own advantage, to benefit a small few. It happens over time with entrenched classes, and that's what seems to be the case here. History tells us that the oppressed masses tend to eventually overthrow such rigid class hierarchies, unless they allow real representation such as the Roman Consul system for example. If the elites refuse to address grievances of the masses it's actually very dangerous - so history teaches us. That's the bigger worry - a pressure cooker effect.

Mike: the Deep State brass hats who control the military would simply order their troops to remain in their barracks. I don't believe a violent, but brief, "correction" is going to happen, certainly not in the near future. If we salvage our republic at all, it's going to be a long slog against big odds, and the violence isn't going to be an intense national spasm that only lasts for a few weeks.

Things look grim, but I am grateful for the clarity that is emerging. The tyrants are exposed, and their abettors have been unmasked, and being able to identify the enemy is a crucial part of any struggle.

Remember when the self styled pundits were predicting that it would require the US military to remove Trump from the White House? Well now it seems we need the US military to get Beijing Biden into the White House.

Justice for Ashli Babbitt!

Update: Apparently troop strength wasn't enough, so 200 NY police officers are being sent. Were they vetted?

Speaking of vetting: 1) what questions are asked,2) does it apply to enlisted and officers, 3) who are the vetters, 4) how are approximately 30,000 troops vetted in such a short time, 5) were the NY cops vetted?

OT The Capitol was shutdown today because of a dumpster fire, which actually turned out to be a homeless woman who burnt down her tent. The fire spread. Imagine it; the entire Capitol of the USA was locked down for a small event. It's like the Laugh-in skit where the WWII German soldier (played by Artie Johnson) pops up from behind the potted plant. They're everywhere! Everywhere, I tells ya!

Update 2: There are 11 EC130J aircraft in the air over the nation. These are psyops planes that conduct broadcasts in AM/FM, HF, TV, and military communication bands. They conduct Special Operation Forces missions, and leaflet drops. (Source: Lockheed Martin)

Deborah said...

Another Update: Add US Marshalls and more police than I originally thought. Makes me wonder how their home cities are staying protected.

From a Twitter commenter: The Ghostbusters have been called, because you never know if those dead people that the Democrats used would turn violent.

bruce said...

All vetting done by computer Deborah, they ran an algorithm or whatever. Online presence like social media, membership of NRA? etc.

Imagine being singled out. How often did the no-fly list get the wrong person? They talk about morale, all this stuff has a flow on effect later on I'm sure. They're heating the pressure cooker no matter what they do from now on, the more they 'crack down', and there's no valve release!

RebeccaH said...

Deborah has the basic attitude right. The power that be in D.C. are gearing up for WWIII because the invasion of the Capitol building absolutely scared the shite out of them. They never thought it would happen in their sacrosanct precinct, and it did. My fervent wish is that no one at all will show up in D.C., there will be no riot or rally or anything at all. Total silence and absence, that's what I want. Then those idiots in Washington will look like the most cowardly pussies ever. If there is a "demonstration/riot" I hope the only people there will be BLM/Antifa types, which absent normal people, will be impossible to hide.

Paco said...

Rebecca: 100% with you on that; make it a ghost town.
