Hearing Miss Lindsey call for riots is a hoot. We need a John Galt movement with producers shutting down for 15 days to stop the spread. Of Facism. If enough farmers, small business owners, oil field workers and truck drivers stop working for two weeks the coastal elites will be in a panic.

One side runs around burning buildings, beating people who disagree with them, carrying various weapons from clubs to rifles. And it isn't the Constitutionalists. And it will go just like it did in Kenosha. The violent, crazied and paid destroyers of the left will be laying flat very rapidly if they insist on attacking people. One of them came up to a truck, at an illegal roadblock, waving his AK rifle in the face of the truck driver and spouting all sorts of violent nonsense. He was instantly dead, shot in what was ALSO ruled as self defense, like the Kenosha case. We are not looking for this violence. We do not want violence. We want our rights respected and to be left alone. Attack us at your peril.

"No society is more than three meals away from revolution". 15 days? People rebel before they starve. That happens well before 15 days. WE feed the world. THEY have time to complain about pronouns with all their spare time. They don't want to push us far enough to stop. But I'll simply stop far before I'd ever riot. What use is rioting for us? Jews rioting in Germany in 1941 would have resulted in more being killed sooner and nothing else.

Were it not for the left's control of our police in most of its forms, this revolution would not end well for them. But they do control the FBI and thousands of increasingly well-armed deep staters who whether immoral or not are likely to do what they are told.

The communists have been pushing for this for the last 15 years. Arguably the last 100. Everything they do has a net result of taking peoples money or their freedom. They have never restored freedom. The republicans are the same, just not as obvious about it. When things get hot I would not want to be one of those baby kissing, bribe taking, lie telling botox politicians.

For almost all of my 80 years and even as a Southerner, I thought the outcome of the American Civil War was for the best. It saved the Union and we became the greatest country on earth. No longer. Lincoln’s illegal bloody war concentrated federal power into what is now an out of control federal oligarchy that wants to dominate and dictate every aspect of our lives. It’s beholden to maintaining ultimate power and control and following the ideas of the WEF for a unified planet-wide dictatorship. Now, I wish to God that the South had won.

In History there is always someone(Napoleon or Washington)ready to step up in these situations. They are usually cunning,ruthless,smart,well organized & charismatic. We may not know who that is until that "moment" comes. But if it comes it will be fast & decisive.

In the Name of Equity, Schools Are Reintroducing Racism 6 replies
Posted by Moritz55 8/30/2022 1:59:06 PM Post Reply
There was a time in America when racial discrimination and segregation were not only supported by the government but mandated. Restaurants had separate areas for Black and white Americans, people were only allowed to use restrooms and water fountains that were specifically designated by their skin color, and Black and white students were taught in separate school systems. It wasn't until after the Supreme Court's Brown v. Board of Education ruling in 1954 that the nation began integrating its educational institutions and healing the wounds caused by the Jim Crow era, edging closer to a society that does not judge individuals based on their skin color or ethnicity.

Gov. Kathy Hochul, D-N.Y., sparked intense outrage after lambasting New York Republican candidates during a speech last week, telling them to "get out of town" and "head to Florida" where they belong. The outrage simmered across social media early Monday with Twitter users slamming the New York governor for her intolerant angle and accusing her of isolating all Republicans living in the Empire State. "We're here to say that the era of Trump and Zeldin and Molinaro – just jump on a bus and head down to Florida you belong. Get out of town," she said. "You don't represent our values," she added.

The search warrant affidavit unsealed on Friday confirms the Department of Justice used a bait-and-switch tactic to justify the FBI’s unprecedented raid on former President Donald Trump’s home. The unredacted portions of the affidavit further expose the Biden administration’s manipulative and tenuous basis for the search and its reliance on inapplicable federal criminal code provisions to justify the targeting of a political enemy. At noon on Friday, the search warrant affidavit used by the DOJ to obtain a warrant to raid Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home hit the public court docket, albeit with heavy redactions. While sparse, the unredacted portions of the affidavit nonetheless proved significant

Kim Kardashian schooled Hillary Clinton in a test of legal knowledge in an episode of Clinton’s upcoming Apple TV+ documentary series, according to a recent interview with People magazine. The former secretary of state went toe-to-toe with Kardashian, the reality TV star and criminal justice reform advocate, in a pop quiz on criminal law issues like use of deadly force and self-defense. Kardashian, who last year passed the baby bar exam after completing her first year in a law apprenticeship program, beat the Yale Law graduate 11-4. Clinton described the loss as "heartbreaking," in the interview with People.

Last week, Financial Times Associate Editor Edward Luce tweeted that Republicans are the most “dangerous” political force in the world, bar none. “I’ve covered extremism and violent ideologies around the world,” he said, and “I have never come across a political force more nihilistic, dangerous & contemptible than today’s Republicans. Nothing close.” Former CIA Director Michael Hayden chimed in immediately and said, “I agree.” This past Tuesday, Democrat adviser Kurt Bardella called all Republicans a “domestic terrorist cell.” MSNBC’s Tiffany Cross agreed and said there should be no distinction between Republicans and “right-wing extremists.” At the same time, Peter Wehner, a contributing writer for The Atlantic

In a three-minute press conference following the FBI raid on Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home, Attorney General Merrick Garland cut a defiant figure, condemning critics of the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the FBI: “I will not stand by silently when their integrity is unfairly attacked.” He then left the stage without taking questions or answering that criticism. It was a signature moment for Garland, who often responds to controversies with belated, rote remarks. His brief comments had all of the substance of a Hallmark card that read, “Trust us, we’re the government.” Yet trust has to be earned, not simply demanded

The FBI division overseeing the investigation of former President Trump's handling of classified material at his Mar-a-Lago residence is also a focus of Special Counsel John Durham's investigation of the bureau's alleged abuses of power and political bias during its years-long Russiagate probe of Trump. The FBI's nine-hour, 30-agent raid of the former president's Florida estate is part of a counter-intelligence case run out of Washington – not Miami, as has been widely reported – according to FBI case documents and sources with knowledge of the matter. The bureau's counterintelligence division led the 2016-2017 Russia "collusion" investigation of Trump, codenamed "Crossfire Hurricane."

Inflation accelerated once again last month to a 40-year high as the Consumer Price Index rose 9.1% from one year ago, forcing poor, elderly and middle-class Americans to confront harsh realities to pay for necessities. Today, it costs 12.2% more to put food on the table at home, about 60% more to drive to work and 2.8% more to take public transit than it did just last year. Families are turning to food banks for help in unprecedented numbers, with donors and foundations rising to meet the challenge. But even charitable dollars can’t escape the corrosive impacts of inflation. In this land of plenty, 2022 may be the hungriest summer

The surest sign that public policies are simply virtue signals is when the messages don't cost anything. The easiest way to tell when that signal starts to fail is to watch politicians flounder as the costs start to rise and voters demand relief. It was free—and meaningless—for progressive churches to post banners calling themselves "nuclear free zones" during the Reagan era. Their dwindling congregations loved it. It was free, after George Floyd's murder, to post woke catechism signs on your front lawn, proclaiming "In this house, we believe: Black Lives Matter, women's rights are human rights, no human is illegal" and so on. Maybe the neighbors gave you high-fives.

For the second night in a row, police showed up at the home of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) in the early hours of Thursday morning, responding to a fake 911 call. Once again, it appears that someone on the Left is hoping to get Greene into a situation in which she or others in her home could be killed. Two police officers rushed to Greene’s home in Rome, Ga., in response to a call they received at 2:53 a.m. The call, according to the Rome Police Department, was about “a male possibly shooting his family members and then himself.” MSN reported that “the suspect, who called

An invisible hand has lit a Soho House–branded rose-water candle (the founder, Nick Jones, is a friend from “long before I met Harry,” she says), and that scent fills the air, mingling with the gentle tones of a flamenco-inflected guitar floating from a speaker. Then, in the lull in conversation, Meghan turns to me and leans forward to ask in a conspiratorial hush, “Do you want to know a secret?
