The Next Question, by Publius Valerius
The United States are in the midst of an ongoing political dispute of historical proportion, and there is a maelstrom of verbiage on line and in the mass media about it. Robert Heinlein, a retired naval officer and noted author, is famous for many things, but the pertinent quote I have in mind is “What are the facts? Again and again and again – what are the facts? Shun wishful thinking, ignore divine revelation, forget what “the stars foretell,” avoid opinion, care not what the neighbors think, never mind the unguessable “verdict of history” – what are the facts, and to how many decimal places? You pilot always into an unknown future; facts are your single clue. Get the facts!”
So, what are the facts?
The facts are that a very large number of persons, many affiliated with the Democratic Party, and some unknown, have engaged in election fraud. From registering illegal aliens, to manufactured ballots, to discarding and failing to count Republican absentee ballots, to blocking Republican poll watchers, to tampering with electronic voting machines apparently with the aid of foreign actors, to wholesale ballot stuffing on an unprecedented scale, among other acts. These are the FACTS. Not speculation, but fact. It is also a fact that the mass media refuse to report these facts, and that Twitter and Google and Youtube among many others are not only refusing to report these facts, but actively blocking individuals who attempt to speak out about these crimes.
These are some of the facts relating to the recent election. The scope and scale of these fraudulent and felonious acts strongly suggest an ongoing organized conspiracy to subvert the lawful electoral process and deny the apparent rightful winner of the 2020 US Presidential election his office.
There are other facts pertaining to this situation. The fact is that there are multiple cases of those on the Left making public statements that those who support the current President in his attempt to resist what can only be characterized as a coup against him are to be persecuted, prosecuted, and even hunted down and killed. Again, these are facts.
There are various estimates of the magnitude of the fraud committed, which are not factual but informed speculation, ranging from Trump winning both the Electoral College with 290 votes to as much as 400 Electoral College votes, and that the popular vote was his nationwide by anywhere from 3 million to as much as 14 million. The actual magnitude of the fraud and theft committed in this election will likely never be known, but it is beyond objective dispute that the facts that have come to light to date prove that this election is being stolen by the Left.
President Trump has taken action to prevent this coup, filing legal appeals and pursuing legal action to block this theft despite the active obstructionism of the main stream media, on-line social media, and many in the Fourth Branch of government. To date, Trump’s efforts to seek a just resolution have had little effect. Despite the overwhelming factual evidence of massive electoral fraud the Left continue to attempt to whitewash this coup and discredit the legimately elected President, Donald Trump.
The Federal government of the United States was originally constituted as a Representative Republic. In order to ensure to ensure that the rights of the people were protected against infringment, the early constitution was amended to include a written list of things the government was forbidden to do, echoing the Declaration of Independence. Protecting the rights of the governed is the primary function of government, but in the centuries since ratification, the US Constitution has been subverted, attacked and undermined. This current attempt by the Left and the Fourth Branch (the Swamp or the unelected bureaucracy) to steal this election is the most recent and most blatant effort to subvert the Constitution. The Left wishes to finally and permanently make Americans into subjects by means of subversion, intimidation, threat, and overt violence.
Those on the Left would benefit from the political power that they think they would hold, and their allies and co-conspirators in the Swamp, judicial, legislative, executive, military, and bureaucratic would likewise benefit by continuing their looting of the American public. One could go on for hours or even days outlining the specifics of the violations of the intent of the Founders, and the beneficiaries of these various Constitutional infringments, but there is neither need nor time for such a lengthy recitation. The reality is that the recent thuggery by the Left and their fellow travelers is an attempt to make the Constitution moot, to finally destroy any remaining vestige of a restraint on government power, and to place the power of government completely in the hands of the Left, wrapping Marxist philosophy in the mantle of legitimate government.
So. Here we are. These are the facts, and this is the situation. There is much that can and should be said and discussed about the present situation, but as I see it, the next and most essential question we each must now ask ourselves is:
Are we better off fighting to defend the properly elected President of the United States of America, to defeat this ongoing coup against the Constitution and the domestic enemies who aided and abetted it, or are we better off staying home, burying our guns, letting the Left complete their theft, and fighting the Federal power in the hands of the Left, as persecuted outsiders?
How each of you reading this decide to answer this question will determine the course of history. Will the domestic enemies of the US Constitution complete the destruction of the Document and the subversion of the American Republic, or will 70 million Americans fight so that those on the Left are defeated and held accountable? Make no mistake, there are no good choices. We are well past the point of having good options.
If we choose, as liberty loving people, to resist this communist coup, there will be blood. The Left has promised, and proven, violence if their coup is resisted. Many may die, patriots, tyrants, and innocents caught in the middle in the next few months. Some of us reading this may die. Some of our wives and children may die. The Union may fracture, perhaps irrevocably. The fabric of America will be irrevocably changed, and not for the better. This will start a civil war, and nobody truly wins in such a conflict. Isn’t the alternative better? If we just give in, won’t the Left leave us alone? What does history tell us?
If we surrender without fighting, as the Left is desperately urging us to do, then history tells us what happens next. Just as in Russia after the Revolution, or Germany when the National Socialists took power, or Venezuela, or in every other country where the Left has stolen the power of government, without exception, Liberty loving folks will be progressively and relentlessly hounded. Using the full force of the Federal government, initially in the ‘blue’ states, but increasingly everywhere, the Left will attack anyone they view as their enemy. Trump voters will be targeted, small businesses will be obliterated, the middle class will be but a memory, and any attempt at resistance will be crushed by the Left using the mechanisms of the Federal government. If you thought that the FBI, the IRS and the EPA under Barry Soetero were bad, then just wait and do nothing, and see what happens next.
States that voted for Trump will receive disproportional attention; denial of revenues, increased regulatory attention, investigations and harrassment of state legislators, and targeted violence and assassinations of influential state politicians. Self defence will be made a Federal crime and the means for self defence likewise criminalized. Worse, there will be no chance of change for the foreseeable future; once having stolen control of the Federal authority, the Left will never permit any repetition of Trump’s 2016 Federal victory, and all subsequent “elections” will result in victory by the Left. Just as in communist Russia, socialist Germany, and progressive Venezuela.
Should Trump fail to use the Insurrection Act, or his 2018 Executive order to smash this coup and if We The People do not wholeheartedly support him if he does, then rest assured that once the Left gains power, they will not hesitate to use these instruments, and others, together with the entire mechanism of the Federal government against their enemies. Against us. The Left has promised this, and can be expected to deliver. There will be no peace, should we fail, except the peace of the grave, and those not killed will be slaves to the Left, allowed to live on sufferance, and the Left will ensure that the survivors suffer. These united States will become Portland Oregon writ large.
I see no other realistic alternatives before us. We all will die someday. Either we run the risk of death in a hard fought civil war or we surrender and face the certainty of oppression and death by the Left, backed by the power of the Federal Government that we surrendered into their hands.
“The gentlemen cry ‘Peace, Peace’ when there is no peace! Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! As for me, give me Liberty, or give me Death!” -Patrick Henry
“If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.” -Winston Churchill
We could have fought for our rights when we could have easily won without bloodshed, but that time is long past.
We could have fought for our rights when the victory was sure and not too costly, but that time is also past.
We are now at the moment when we must either fight, as Americans, for what is right, or surrender to the Left. The simple fact that the Left is bending every effort to divide us, demoralize us and blind us testifies to our strength. The Left would have us think that the odds are against us. Perhaps they are, but when shall we be stronger? Will it benefit us to give the mechanisms of the modern State, with all their potential for tyranny, fully into the hands of the Left? Will we doom ourselves to having to fight without any hope of victory?
Though it is not given to us to see clear victory ahead, nor can we predict the outcome, I recall over 50,000 enraged Americans descending on the Mall in DC to reopen the monuments spitefully closed by Barry Soetero. When the WW2 veterans were scheduled to come and see their memorial, tens of thousands of patriots and veterans, in violation of the law, and despite regulations forbidding it, opened the monuments and made those visits happen. I saw police cars bounced. I saw hundreds of DC police backing away rather than confront massive grass roots resistance. I saw thousands of people cheering those aged World War 2 survivors, who fought for our country. I saw thousands of people stopping traffic and piling up Barrycades around the entrances to the Spite House. I recall that, for a little while, the spirit of American independence showed itself.
And the Left recall that, too. We are far stronger than we know, stronger than the Left want us to be.
If on January 6th, the US Congress is allowed to count the fraudulent votes to illegitimately install Joe Biden as President, then we will be moving perilously close to that moment when we will have to fight with little hope of victory. I hope to see at least a million people answer President Trump’s call to come to DC on January 6th and demonstrate to the Left what will happen should they aid and abet the Left’s attempted subversion of the Constitution and their attempt to overthrow the legitimate government of these united States.
As the schoolmasters at Boston Latin said the morning of April 19, 1775, “Deponite Libros”. It is time to put the books down. It is time to decide whether you will stand for Liberty or kneel to tyranny. I will be standing in the District at the Capitol at 8 AM on January 6th. I am an American by choice, but I love this country as much as anyone born on this soil does, and I call on all Liberty loving Americans to join me there. In honour I can do no less. “Who dares, wins.”

I don’t think enough people can wrap their heads around the enormity of what’s happening. This really is a global event. The Left has been aiming for this moment for a very long time. It’s been stealthy and insidious. They’ve indoctrinated scores of students through the public schools, through academia, through entertainment. It’s now bearing fruit. The scope and breadth of the brainwashing and demonizing traditional values is staggering. Which brings me to my point; I seriously doubt we have the stomach for what needs to be done. It truly would have to be Biblical. Right now, there are no true hardships to make people leave their cozy homes, stop playing with their devices and go and “hoist the black flag”. People still feel like they have too much to lose. The Left would need to be purged and extirpated on a massive scale. Only then could we go about the business of restoring this country.
Read somewhere the other day, “They are never going to be as weak as now. And you are never going to be as strong as now.”
I hope Trump will do what’s in his power and right to do but I’m losing faith.
Enough people do. The vast majority voted against the left. The majority needs to start acting like a majority. Go to DC and put a few thousand ton of meat around Capitol Hill. If they pull some black op , FF bullshit then off to the races we go.

Secret Army – how Churchill created an Army of secret citizen operative in case of German Invasion of the Homeland, I think a lot of lessons can be learned,
NC Scout ,thought you would dig this series
Good stuff.
For some of the younger, there was a time where people where exposing the many
“branding campaigns” all the Bar Ass-ociations here and worldwide where continuing
to cook up. Even, in their annual Bar Ass-ociation Conventions, they would start off with
an introduction like – “As you know, we are in charge of the living, the dead, and the unborn.”
Many teevee “shows” began to prop up about judge this and judge that “show.”
Look at it this way – “Any same hands group, or faction, having control of all three branches of government,
is the very definition of tyranny,” so says in The Federalist Papers. So, attorneys, not only being
part of the judiciary, also control the legislative and executive.
Where are in Same hands, not safe hands…..
But then again ladies and gentlemen, and even droogs and droogettes, that is what happens when
people elect benefators which exercise authority, because they have forgotten their first love, or where not
even taught of what that First Love was and is all about. That world, which according to Thayers or even
Bouviers Law Dictionary, is …”a system or form of government”… is what Jesus taught as …”not to be
that way with you.” You know – “Not being spotted by that world”
“My world is not of your world”
Free bread and circuses….. free bread and circuses…..
“Every man to his family and his possessions”
Eyes Right….
Yup–those are the facts, and there are no good options left. Those options evaporated while good men did nothing.
BTW, this video shares the theme (and some of the quotes) of this post: https://youtu.be/MSmH9qdGPWk It was posted to sell a book; but there is truth in it, as seen from a perspective under the Soetero Regime.
Woodchipper makes some valid points IMO. Yes, our enemies have been working toward this convergence for over a century, and they’re dangerously close. But the American team has come to life, and with Trump’s election has initiated a fourth quarter comeback. Will it succeed? That remains to be seen–and probably soon. There’s still a million things that could go wrong, and it was extremely foolish to wait until this late in the game to show signs of life. But if nothing else, we have wrecked their plans for the gradual, invisible takeover; they are more frightened now than they have probably ever been; and our brothers all over the country are waking up and loading magazines.
It’s understandable to expect Americans to just knuckle under again, because we’ve never seen them do anything difference. But we are in a 4th turning, and the confluence of generations right now confirms that radical change is coming, one way or the other. We haven’t been this polarized since Bleeding Kansas; and wars fought during 4th turnings are total wars.
Total war means we don’t take a knee to end regulation and settle for a tie. It means after you sack the quarterback, you go after his family. If you know what I mean. We also absolutely must purge everyone at every level who has been giving aid and comfort to the other team(s). Because this is a 4th turning, there’s actually a good chance of that happening, if we win.
But like the OP said: our odds of winning go up dramatically if we take the field before the enemy consolidates absolute power.
Great article. I agree 100%. The question is the resolve of the American people. I am not 100% confident that we will do what needs to be done.
If you are waiting on Pence to do the right thing, you are deluded, two homos made him cry.
I don’t trust Pence, but I don’t know what you’re referring to, either.

Just here to echo woodsplitter’s comments. Everything that needs to be said was accomplished in a short paragraph.
Unfortunately this is not my original observation, for which I will ALWAYS be embarrassed.
“Russian Math” by way of D. Orlov’s blog:
“… 74 million votes for Trump plus 81 million votes for Biden gives us 155 million votes total. But there were only 153 million registered voters just two years ago, so that’s 101% voter turn-out. And then 160 million are said to have voted, so that’s 103% turn-out! Compare that to 55.7% turn-out in the 2016 election.”
Best of Luck
If you listen to Lin Wood and Sidney Powell, they seem to think Trump has overwhelming evidence to satisfy foreign interference in the 2020 election. I’m not understanding why it’s taking him so long to pull the trigger on the Insurrection Act. Unless he feels he’s still exposing traitors. My fear is we are going to hear “I didn’t want to put the country through it”. Hopefully he’s figured out it will be much worse if he doesn’t invoke. Hopefully his protection detail took the appropriate steps to safeguard his loved ones. Either way I think we’re headed for a rough road. The battle lines have been drawn and for the most part LE will not be on our side. In my area the FBI is quietly recruiting “Tactical Urban Response Technicians”. Interesting title. Buckle up.
The T.U.R.T.s will operate out of the F.B.I.’s Tactical Urban Response Division, T.U.R.D. You just can’t make this shit up!
Best of Luck
Joe
Anyone else get the feeling that no matter how hard Lin Wood and Sidney Powell work to rescue DJT, he sabotages the situation? He wants to look like a fighter, but deep down, he’s a tweetin disaster in the making. Right down to his own daughter, he hasn’t picked a single loyal person to his side, or was that always the plan?
Give America false hope while it guts itself from the inside out. I can’t come up with any other explanation.
Well, besides the fact he enabled a lot of banskter buddies to get filthy rich in 2020. What’s the national debt today………?
“Anyone else get the feeling that no matter how hard Lin Wood and Sidney Powell work to rescue DJT, he sabotages the situation?”
Are you kidding me. This guys been fighting the Deep State since before day one for four years. The amount of success he’s had against even his own party is amazing. And he’s taken every systematic step necessary to destroy the deep state. I’m just wondering why he hasn’t done it. I don’t think anybody, including him, realized how compromised our judiciary is.
He doesn’t have dictatorial power. He practiced Federalism to a fault. The majority now realize how far gone things are. They spent the time since JFK playing the fool. No fooling around now. 3250 may still be on the cards but you need a critical mass of the populace to at least not be snitches. We are getting there. I know for old hands this is like flogging a 3 legged donkey to water but timing is still a thing. If it wasn’t you guys would have kicked this thing off years ago, right?
[…] Full article here […]
Anyone want to know another place to look for the enemy? Checkout your local area non -profit organisations and their community partners .Especially in the cities.
yup. You are 100% correct. We’ve all heard, “local, local, local” and this is a prime example. The irony, or maybe not, is that those that want centralized control understand and apply this completely.
A functional judicial branch could have corrected the course of the nation. Until we see the proverbial “heads on pikes” from the utterly corrupt judicial branch, it’s all (including articles like this) empty bluster. No amount of internet posting or pep rallies in DC will change anything until the government fears the people, starting with the judiciary.
I agree. Systems of coercion only respect more brutal systems of coercion.
But who will “bell the cat?” Probably some old white dude, no kids, no wife, no friends. Kinda like Anthony Quinn Warner?
Nah, too easy, too FBI predictable. It will be the proverbial Black Swan. Probably some Neanderthal group without Internet access or cell phones, older than shit and fed up, some skills, sick, already dead motherfuckers. Good luck profiling them, or stopping them.
Best of Luck
Joe
Even if by some miracle Trump remains in office another 4 more years, how many heads on a pike will we see? About as many as from the last 4 years, it’s all talk and covering for your partners in crime that these folks represent, not the tax slaves who keep them in cigars, whiskey and filet mignon.
Punishment MUST be meted out to these political criminals, punishment of the highest severity to the highest levels, and also because nothing has stopped them from sending their alphabet agency SWAT teams after Joe Sixpack for minor offenses. These folks will laugh it off and continue on with repeat offenses until stopped with a frontal lobotomy at 3250.
The American people do not have the backbone to punish several million hard core political prisoners, a stern tongue lashing should do the job, the Chinese will be wetting themselves with laughter at our lack of resolve to fix the situation once and for all.
How long will it take before we grow up to the task or fall down for good?
As someone has stated above, the perfect storm with a Black Swan event is inevitable because human nature isn’t static.
Couldn’t possibly agree more. There are plenty enough deserving heads to go around to line both sides of Pennsylvania Avenue. Until then everything is bullshit.
Great article.
Having grown up looking at America from the outside, but with shit for brains at that age not understanding political nuance.
Taken me over 40 years (the last 20 especially) and Bush ’41 NWO, thousand-points-of-light inauguration speech to even begin to understand.
This past election tore the veil asunder. The election fraud has happened and DJT whistled past the graveyard. There have been many means, motives and opportunities that everyone was expecting HIM to do something and instead we got — ?.
And many people are – still – going to expect him to do – something – before? after Jan 20th? Anyone taking any bets ?
That’s the take-away that rings brightly. Everyone is expecting someone else to make a move or do something. When nothing happens and we are left holding a bag of shit, well, we expect someone else to do something and elect them. Wash. Rinse. Repeat.
This is the American way. When you expect someone else to do the job, don’t expect a fair share of the rewards except to keep the rubes fat dumb and happy with a full belly, a six-pac, cell phone and sports-ball……and to make YOU pay for it all.
This is what the Greeks were trying to tell me over 40 years ago, but they are just as fucked up as the rest of the planet – even worse.
My take-away from all this ? We’ve been lied to about everything since the year dot. There is only ONE truth.
On the obverse……
Biden is sworn in on the 20th. He doesn’t know his ass from a hole in the ground. The Biden camp and the Harris camp will go to the knives. Should be fun. Chaos will rule in Congress. Orders and directives will be countermanded and counter-countermanded. The old bastard will dance a jig and play the fiddle while America is deeded piece by piece to China.
The politicians are going to throw each other under the bus. Most elected officials are going to do whatever they feel like since rule of law will be non-existent. (but you are expected to OBEY? hint, hint). Most local yokels will not enforce anything and just go through the motions.
(At the end of your shift – go home) The few that that try to swing a big dick will end up sleeping with the fishes.
So basically it’s going to be a target-rich environment, anything goes. We’ll end up with fiefdoms and mini warlords. Local, local, local.
Now is the time to harden your base. The person with the biggest dick becomes the HMFIC.
I hope I’m wrong. I want to wake up tomorrow to unicorns eating Skittles and pooping rainbows.
I’d say Happy New Year but it seems kinda redundant
“…then we will be moving perilously close to that moment when we will have to fight with little hope of victory.”
No, Sir. Not “close to”. We will have arrived. There will be no other way to correct the situation.
We will have formally arrived at that moment when we either submit to criminal tyranny, or fight it.
Embrace the suck. It is your now, and your near future.
This will piss some off, but it how I feel at this moment in my life.
It’s sad but Nothing will happen to the left. They are in control of a host of shit that runs the world. What the hell do we have? NASCAR, MLB, NFL, buttwiper beer fat boys talking tuff, even if they talk at all, which most don’t. They, the fat majority don’t frequent sites like this. Fellas I hate to be the bearer of bad news but we are still less then 1% of the population. Those of us who served are a very small very small group. We all hit the same blogs to hear the shit we want to hear that makes us feel good and enraged, buts nothing happens, ever.
I stayed in Idaho this winter for this one reason. If shit went sideways I would be very far removed from all the shooting. If the shit does go off, then I will wait here till spring thaw, oh say juneish to do squat.
In the mean time, I am yawning as I run another swab down the barrel.
Cavguy.
Math time? Less than one percent? Population, 350 million. That would be 3.5 million right? Then go, say way less than half, so how about a million. A million fighters. Too many? Not enough?
Why would you want to be ‘far removed from all the shooting’? That’s where the shooters will be. Am I missing something? Many put on silly costumes to kill peasant fighters halfway around the world at the behest of scum like Clinton , Bush and Obama. Now a sitting President requests a show of strength in the Capitol of this nation. What else do you need? Written orders? Nothing will be decided in the wilds of Idaho. Idaho will for damn sure be one of the many chips on the table though in the winner take all casino in DC . DC will be mostly peaceful anyway. An urban FTX if you will. No ticks but many fleas.
I agree with you 100%. Nothing is going to happen. This and similar sites can talk/offer small unit practices, comm practices, the latest/hottest weapon info till the cows come home. Nothing is going to happen. I’ve been rucking in the central california coastal mountain ranges for five years now and not seen a single hiker that I could even think was training for any “spicy times”. The closest I came was a youngster who proudly walked up and announced “he was training for selection”. I could only muster “good luck” not wishing to share my opinion of the current military. I also have gone to the local range almost every week – nothing to report there. Lots of old guys, some barely able to walk, shooting from the bench. If they had to go prone they might not get up. Nothing is going to happen. You are alone. Nobody is coming to help. Accept that and make your decisions with that in mind.
Now this bs about “facts this” “facts that”. There are no “facts”. Look around. Does anyone agree on anything? As a well known German philosopher (not some retired military officer who undoubtedly never won any engagement unless he is 95 years old) said “There are no facts. Only interpretations”.
Another site had some comment from a limey about us yanks being good at yakking – not much else. Then he had the gall to ask us to come together and save the world. Fat chance. Limey “You are alone. The yanks are not coming to save you”.
Happy New Year to all.
Then why are you here?
This is a serious fucking question.
If you, or anyone else wants to lament what you haven’t done over the years, head on over to Gab with the other Boomers. Lotta talking heads over there good for nothing else. Over here, we’re training, networking, and creating culture around what we do- something obviously you don’t understand or appreciate.
So if you’re here to bitch and moan, head out. If you’re here to learn how to take care of business when this thing blows up, because when you see the people out of work and preparing to revolt, we’ll know you’re worth about the same amount as your comments here. Not a damn thing.
Terrified that the next generation will actually do what they failed to do IMHO.
NCS: “Over here, we’re training, networking, and creating culture around what we do”. And very much appreciated. Thank you.
Thank you!!! YOU are why we fight hard here. Seriously.
I’m unable to work my normal job because I caught (& am recovering from) the Kung-flu, and corporate policy says that I have to wait two weeks to get retested to get a negative result. Cocks.
So I’ve been working for a friend’s dad. He’z laying tiles, Im brand new to flooring, but I know how to carry tiles and bags of grout.
My friend drops in and is showing off a new boomstick, and we all get to jawing about tyranny…
So his dad talks about leaving a weapon by the nightstand, because he’d defend himself against lawless police, or whatever, and so I asked about defending his neighbor, because he knows the guy, and knows he’s not a bad guy, not crazy, etc.
“That’s murder, though.”
I responded with Solzhenitsyn’s quote about burning in the camps because the Russians didn’t love Freedom enough.
Not defending your neighbors and friends is where we’re at in this timeline, and it’s not good. Fuck what anyone says about “da gubbamint”, if you’re not willing to defend the guy you wave at every day when the cops come for him, you’re not going to do anything for anyone.
We’ve all done that, though. We’re all so shit-scared of losing people that matter to us that we’re all justifying how to avoid ever standing up. I see it in conversations with normal people, with militias, with people from absolutely every group of people that should be planning to resist.
I, honestly, don’t know what it’s going to take before people who are already awake, who are already talking about standing up, actually get to the doing. I have a feeling that we’re headed for a Soviet occupation after a relatively short civil war, but on a scale that’ll make everything that came before look small.
Soma has been a hell of a drug, but the folks in charge aren’t going to keep handing it out.
People aren’t mad enough.
They’re still trying to believe good things about the enemy. If only Comrade Stalin knew…
I won’t be around to find out. I’m making sure I’m as high as possible on the lists. I might not get executed, but I won’t escape the gulag.
Wasn’t it Cortez who torched the conquistadors’ ships after landing?
No retreat.
Surrender means my baby girl dies anyways. The wife gets raped to death.
Forcing myself into a dark, violent corner…
And making violent friends.
Makes the moral equation easier.
They *will* come for us. We’re famous.
They *will* come for me. I’m active in the group.
Let’s make it as expensive as possible.
See those guys stacked up across the street?
I bet you can get four, before they kill you.
Be keeping an eye on Iran where there s been some rumbling the past few days. January 3rd is the anniversary of the assassination of Itheir general.
The bizarre parallels between the late Roman Republic’s First Triumvirate, consisting of the Roman billionaire and real estate speculator Crassus, his political protege Caesar, and the general Pompey, and the present US government
of Trump, Kushner, and Pompeo remain.
Pompeo is literally named after ,Pompey.
From the Diplomat in Spain link below…
‘In this way, from his behavior and surname emerges the figure of a historic character, because Pompeo in Italian means nothing more and nothing less than Pompey.
Both have their family origin in the same region of Italy and the Roman was with the Optimates, the conservatives of the Roman Republic. However, the fact that most relates them is reflected on the image of a powerful hair: Lucius Cornelius Sulla ruled Rome in turbulent times, like his golden red hair, and the polarization between Populares and Optimates factions ennobled Pompey to the inner circle of Sulla.
Netanyahu notes Pompeo’s Pompey connection and calls the United States the ‘New Rome’ a little over a year ago…
‘We had a moving visit today to the wall. I can’t resist repeating this, but I’m going to. I said to the Secretary that the last time Pompeo visited Jerusalem didn’t end that well, but this is a different time. Rome and Jerusalem clashed over values. We had a great tragedy for the Jewish people. But the new Rome, the United States, views itself as a new Jerusalem.’
‘We visited the original city on the hill. We visited the hill. There is no greater friendship than the one between Israel and the United States, and no one represents it better than Secretary of State Mike Pompeo’

In regards to the First Triumvirate, I’d forgotten to mention it was Crassus’ disastrous decision to launch a military campaign against Parthia (present day Iran) which brought about his demise.
What followed was the power struggle between Pompey and Caesar in a civil war.
Crassus’ protege BCaesar won out, and what followed was the fall of the Republic, and the establishment of a dictatorship.

There are many parallels between the fall of the Roman Republic and the situation here in these presently united States, including the moral corruption, the debasement of the currency, military overextension, and other human factors. Most importantly, we have, as the Romans did, the desire by many in the population for a strong leader to take charge and *fix* things, laws and traditions be damned. The differences are many, as well. Modern self loading rifles, modern communications, and modern transport bring changes to the battlefield undreamt of even 150 years ago.
While I agree that a demonstration of the power of the FreeFor in DC on the 6th may not be decisive, it will be something that neither the Left nor their allies in the media will be able to ignore. As I commented at Liberty’s Torch, https://bastionofliberty.blogspot.com/2020/12/what-is-to-be-done.html , resistance to tyranny is a journey made of many steps. This proposed “Stop the Steal’ demonstration is a large step, but it will not, by itself, win the war against tyranny. Even should FreeFor win the battle to prevent this election from being stolen, there is still a great deal of deferred political maintenance WE are responsible for. Until DC is once again a quiet backwater, and the productive centers of our civilization are humming and vibrant again, when production is prized over pull and politics, when the black letter US Constitution is actually enforced as the highest law in the land, *then* we can say that Liberty is dominant.
Keeping tyrants in check is the job of the People. OUR job. Keeping our culture uncorrupted is OUR job. Teaching the young individual resilience and toughness is OUR job. Preventing modern day bread and circuses is OUR job. Hoping that one man, be he Caesar or Donald Trump, to come and fix over a century of corruption, sedition, and creeping socialism all by himself is a forlorn hope. The Roman Empire inevitably led to the fall of Western Civilization, not because of Caesar, but because he could not reverse the social decay in Roman culture. That is OUR job, and IMHO the most important thing about this Stop the Steal movement is that it shows people are beginning to realise this AND TO ACT ON THAT REALIZATION.
With regard to all who seek the Light,
Historian

I tried to post a comment and link to this article on my facebook account. It said that americanpartisan blocked the link using cloudflare.
We’re not using cloudflare.
Tried the same thing, got the same message, tried the link, it works fine, just another trick from facebook to discourage people from going places and seeing things it does not want them to see. They’re definitely like that.
