Y’know, I just re-read TGW-566, and the first section…
I believe that we’re getting close to Antifa and BLM finding out just who the real “ambush predators” are.
Way ta go, KATHY! I do wish she hadn’t completely released the arrogant bitch. Whole lot less leverage separated as they are. Plus Kathy won’t have the element of surprise if she needs to re-engage.
Re Panty-fa and BLM and “ambush predators”: I greatly fear anyone who so much as scratches one of those miscreants is gonna find themselves facing the full wrath of a legal system totally dominated by the left. Was reading about a journalist who ran afoul of the two aforementioned groups in Portland 4 years ago. Even though the badguys were the aggressors, HE was the one.charged. After voir dire demonstrated that the jury pool was hopelessly polluted, the defense team elected to opt for a trial before a judge. Unfortunately, the judge assigned was in almost every sense a hanging judge. He ignored any/all exculpatory and reasonable-doubt-inducing evidence and summarily reject all defenses. In the end he threw the book at an obviously innocent (forget ” not guilty”) defendant. The leftist-dominated appeals system failed them utterly. The defense is now trying to get SCOTUS to hear the case. With the judiciary at all levels as heavily stacked with leftists, anybody taking a shot (literal or otherwise) at any Panty-fa or BLM member engaging in mostly peaceful demonstrations better be prepared for a long, bloody uphill fight.
As much as I hate to admit it, it seems as though we are either about to become a totalitarian state, or meltdown into a civil war…
I think I prefer the scenario portrayed in this story, to what I fear is coming…
If Trump loses, Kamala Harris will be POTUS (via a 25th Amendment coup with Biden a willing participant.) by this time next year and we will be well on our way to your 1st alternative. If Trump wins then the temper tantrums the.left has been throwing for over 3 years will get worse and things will devolve into your 2nd alternative. It’s what we were taught in psych class as a classic double avoidance scenario. In plain English we’re damned if we do (whichever option you prefer) and damned if we don’t. Some days I’m glad I’m old. I’m just sorry for.my kids, grandkids and great-grandkids because THEY’RE the ones who’ll have to try to live through it. {sigh}
And even if President Trump (and the rest of America) wins, it will only be temporary.
We’ll have to fight the same damned fight every two years, over and over, until one of us is destroyed completely and their ground salted.
Marxists, Communists, Fascists, they are like the Terminator. They will never give up, they will never grow tired, they will never stop.
Their big advantage is that they own the education system, ours is that they are raising generations that are used to instant gratification without real hardship.
The first step to victory – for them and for us – is to control the schools. We MUST take them back!
The scenario I see is Trump winning, and doing so decisively. The Progs will pitch fits, but Trump is not a politician and has no concern for legacy. He can wield the National Guard and Federal law enforcement to bring the rouge cities back under control. Gut the FBI and rebuild it, de-militarize the police. What does he have to lose? Certainly not re-election.
I read that article on RedState. I, for one, would have absolutely NO problem at all voting for her. Unfortunately, only way she gets to run is if the Dems screw the pooch and fail to steal what bodes to be the most fraudulent election in the HISTORY of fraudulent elections. I have a nasty suspicion that McConnell, Graham et al have little problem being the permanent minority party.
Always, always be careful about dealing with people as a group and not as individuals. The majority of supporters of BLM are NOT vandals and looters, they’re just angry, and IMNSHO there is justification for that anger. I heard a woman saying she thought those SEEKING violence were infiltrators from The Other Side trying to make them look bad — which to me sounds like tinfoil-hat level paranoia, but certainly indicates she doesn’t consider them legitimate co-protesters.
I don’t like Donald Trump. I consider him as much a narcissist as our last president, and boorish and short-sighted on top of it. But I would have gritted my teeth and voted for him four years ago if there was any chance at all of Oklahoma’s Electors going to Hillary Clinton. Since there wasn’t, I voted for the doofus the Libertarians put up. This year, Jo Jorgensen isn’t a doofus. She won’t win, but voting for her sends a message if you have that freedom. And Oklahoma won’t go for Joe Biden, so I do.
As.much as Trump can be an annoying and boorish individual, he’s managed to do more for the country in three and a half years than both Congress and any other President has in the last twenty to thirty years.
‘and it will still be there when you leave.’
Vlad Tepes lives in the area?
Huh? You and I read different books.

Funny. It was also right around 566 that we found out some of what Miral was talking about at her rest stop regarding her captors.

Regarding taking the schools back: sorry, man, but I suspect that ship sailed so long ago it’s over the horizon from 30,000 feet up.

Could she be our first female President or Vice-President?
Typical Conservative woman, tough, intelligent, and hot!
Smoke the opposition, lady!

Of course they don’t, as the minority they get to collect their paychecks and pensions without actually doing anything.
+10K on that!
