The recipe for a Democrat October surprise

Original Article

Posted By: mc squared, 9/4/2022 10:23:56 AM

Start with one divisive presidential speech accusing 74 million voters of being enemies of the state. Add two Marine guards against a blood-red background for flavor. Whip up the base. Stir in a large pool of resentment and bring to a boil. Sprinkle in a large contingent of FBI operatives to mix with low-intellect stoned bloggers living in repair shop basements and calling for civil war. Bake for a few weeks and allow resentment to rise. The FBI will supply the necessary heat and preparation to foment Insurrection 2.0. Frost the cake with the state-controlled news and social media reacting in horror and social media

Comments:

The country can't take another contentious election. Where would it start: the Battle of Portland, the Battle of Seattle, maybe?

If there is any rioting, it will be by antifa people dressed as MAGA / Trump supporters. The left are the loot and burn people, not the right.

Control your ability to be mobile (energy crisis), control your food, take away your guns, rig any and all elections. Control, control, boots on your neck control. Yeah, that's what they want. They are more than halfway there. Put nothing past them and, no doubt, right now in a basement some are gathered planning a major MAGA riot to "prove" that we are evil and dangerous. Since we won't do it ourselves they'll put one on for show. I never thought that our beautiful country could be taken over by the insane.

An equivalent to burning the Reichstag might seem eerily appropriate to these fascist Dems right now. "The Reichstag fire, burning of the Reichstag (parliament) building in Berlin on the night of February 27, 1933, a key event in the establishment of the Nazi dictatorship and widely believed to have been contrived by the newly formed Nazi government itself to turn public opinion against its opponents and to assume emergency powers."

This is the game. The Democrats are acting so over the top corrupt in an attempt to trigger a Reichstag Fire event. That way they can truly seize power. Same playbook they used in 1930 Germany.

Just like False Flag mass shootings kicked off the gun control legislation frenzy, FBI dressed as MAGA supports will trigger BLM and Antifa to strike and strike hard.

Heard a different take. This will be used for bipartisan impeach impeachment of Biden and install Harris. If Trump wins in 2024 (or any other outsider), the precedent will be set for bipartisan impeachment of them too. Washington is protecting itself.

I think we will know what there plans are the closer we get to October, I think what extremes they will go to will be contingent upon their confidence in their fraud mechanisms and how their fake poll psyops playout. They are so close to achieving their agenda of total destruction of this country that if they can't manipulate the odds squarely in their favor we are at the point in this country where the Left has gotten away with so much that absolutely nothing is off the table.

We know January 6th was the Reichstag fire to hide the fraud on November 3rd (still counting in the 9th in some states). 14,000 hours of video denied to Senate subpoena. 150+ DC police resigned days after the 6th (250+ resigned the Summer 2020 destruction), none have been subpoenaed to testify. There are literally hundreds of Ray Epps types antagonizing, instigating and rioting inside and outside the Capitol that were never placed in DC concentration camps. All you need to know about the Democrat Nazi Reichstag fire in the planning stages.

And Antifa told to wear MAGA hats [backwards!] on Amtrak to DC from dem Baltimore and cities North, after Trump offered to have our National Guard at the ready, but was turned down by Pelosi and DC dem mayor. Patriots, stay far away from dem cities. They even marched down my street in formerly idyllic Monterey CA. We had large MAGA Rallies every Sunday by a designated beach which antifa tried to intercept, but we were much larger. Even went to a Trump Rally in a Beverly Hills park led by Pat Boone! TBIYTC

They tried to cow us with the January 6th circus so people would be reluctant to protest anything that the government does from now on no matter how outrageous and it has worked for the most part. Joe is stealing trillions of dollars and getting a lot of people killed. The country is being invaded by undesireables every day. Very few are protesting things that deserve protest. Now our incomes are being stretched and our food supplies are being sabotaged. The French populace was also labeled as dirty rabble in 1789 and they suffered through it all until the "Let them eat cake" moment. There is a line and when it is crossed, the people will react. Good people, real Americans. Remember, at the next stolen election, the Supreme Court now has a precedent. We will give them a chance to right the wrong and if they fail us again, all bets are off.

This reminds me of a 1940s Errol Flynn movie in Finland where the Nazis were provoking the people who wanted to fight/attack back, but Flynn kept telling them, WAIT FOR THE DAY! WAIT FOR THE DAY! Their day came when firearms were delivered by sea and the people took their country back from the Nazis. Wait for the Day for us means, Wait for Election Day and the Ballot Box, where we take back our Country!

Message to every MAGA Trump supporter and to Trump and DeSantis, stay away, far away from Washington. Don't talk of going there for any reason it's the heart of the enemy's camp. March and gather only in a secure red state far from Washington it's a snare and hellhole for the fraud FBI and Antifa to act upon the unwitting MAGA people don't give the left another 1/6. They can only burn Portland, Seattle and Minneapolis just so many times until there is nothing left to burn and loot, we know it won't be MAGA people doing it.

It is very telling that most of us on this site understand and expect some kind of nefarious plan will be executed before the November elections. We are not alone either. The American people understand exactly what they are witnessing. Democrats know they have to do something to assure that they will keep the House and Senate. Nothing is off the table. Biden’s speech confirmed their commitment to their agenda. Of course he accused Conservatives of doing exactly what democrats are doing right now. Projection is a powerful force that compels them to assign their bad character traits to their opponents. However, I can’t believe they think we are too ignorant to recognize this strategy. They also believe they can bait us into breaking the law. We are not so easily duped as are their supporters who behave like Orcs when Sauron demands it. I agree with #3. Our best option is the ballot box. If we have massive turnouts, cheating will be very difficult. No one stays home and anyone willing and able should be alert to any shenanigans and use your cameras to capture anything that is questionable. If we win in 2022 and 2024, this is when you will see democrats doing what they are accusing us of. Winning is going to be easier than trying to govern because these lawless zealots will refuse to accept defeat. This is the time that the country could erupt into violence. We are in a world of hurt because these lawless totalitarians would rather burn the country down than accept defeat. One step at a time. First, we win. Then we can deal with whatever they hit us with. Just don’t expect them to be gracious in defeat. It’s not going to happen.

I agree that they are trying to provoke us into doing something that would be an excuse to crack down even more on social media, use the IRS/FBI/DOJ against us, etc. But let's not take our eye off the REAL issue. I believe they are searching for another excuse to cover the stealing of the 2022 election! China Joe laid the ground work by saying the Right were dangerous fascists. When the smoke clears a week after election day and the Demo-rats still hold both branches of Congress the media will say: "See? Papa Joe reached the soccer moms and they came out and voted against the ugly Republicans!". Yup --- that's the ticket. Lies to cover up lies. In fact, the "votes" are fake but will be claimed to be real. Remember your history --- Hitler demonized the Jews, Communists, and anyone that opposed him and that freed the Brown Shirts to respond with criminality. In America, the new Brown Shirts are CNN, MSNBC, the NY Times, etc. Kristallnacht (The Night of Broken Glass) took place in early November, 1938. Long before the start of WWII. The Biden Youth (a/k/a - Antifa & BLM) will merrily intimidate MAGA. China Joe has given them cover!

Oh, please...by all means, avoid violence. However, the conservative meme since Mar-a-Lago has been to "Keep your powder dry." And why not? Agitation is such an impolite thing, makes for troubles. It is the de facto motto of the "real conservative" movement. Just send money and otherwise roll over while Mitch, Kevin and the UNIPARTY, er, stalwart GOPe boys (and gals) take care of it. And when Joe's FBI, ATF, or expanded IRS comes knocking, remember you got nothing to hide. No sense getting upset about it. Your powder will still be dry.

The media will be running old footage of riots with some deep fake footage mixed in. Watch out for guys in polos, khakis, MAGA hats and sunglasses, they're FBI. We need to light up the internet to preemptively call out this BS and warn every conservative to avoid all demonstrations and protests until after the election. I would avoid any large public gatherings altogether and I think it would be wise if Donald Trump held off on the rallies as well. If we could all just do that it would be easier to expose their propaganda.

Violence is what we DO NOT do, that's the Dem/Left's M.O. Every R candidate, and every one of us, when the accusations of 1/6 arise, must respond with that, violence comes from the Dem/Left, the outside agitators at the Capitol, for example, the ugly set-up of ne'er-do-wells in MI. Violence is in the DNA of the Left. So is lying and distorting the facts and the truth. All of 2020, when people were struggling with covid lockdowns, it was the Leftwing terrorists, agitators including anitfa and blm, who were all engaged in violence (as they also did during their the Occupy Wall Street days, and whenever WEF meetings were held). They are always flush with money, too. Right now, they are suspiciously, even ominously, quiet. They are not peacefully attending to their affairs; they're plotting and scheming. So, keep hammering the facts, the truth in letters to editors, in calls to your R candidates... tell them that our Founders expected us to make the pen mightier than the sword, in a manner of speaking. And this is the time to fight. Our great peril is that the Left is enmeshed with the Dems, and they have an enormously powerful propaganda are in the media -"news" and entertainment- and the Justice Department are all in league with each other. In order to get the TRUTH out, Republicans, especially on the Conservative part of the spectrum, have to use their debates and tv/radio appearances to attempt to make their case. Even then, the news media edit and distort what they have said. As we have seen, at the last minute they are wont to make up some ridiculous story about a spouse or drag up an innocuous old story, all the while ignoring real scandals on the Dem/Left. This is why it's essential that Pres. Trump make sure that he makes his political points as clear and comprehensive as possible and try to leave for later the personal issues... the personal is what the media want. And also, because the media are in the Dem/Left pockets, a vast number of our fellow Citizens can't remember what their chosen news sources NEVER told them. ALL they did was rehash the inflammatory events such as "Charleston," which Brandon mentions ad nauseum. We all know the issues. So we are at a severe disadvantage because of the biased media and the abysmal ignorance of the Dem voters. One last point. At the Trump rally at the Capitol in the morning on 1/6, later on it was a tiny, miniscule fraction of the hundreds of thousands of Trump supporters gathered there who went to the Cap Building, where agitators were already churning the emotions.

New York stores are now checking identification per a state law aimed to reduce drug deaths. The measure bans the sale of whipped cream canisters to anyone under 21.

The inhalant has long been a popular recreational drug — called “whippets” — among teenagers due to the availability of whipped cream canisters at grocery and convenience stores.

This week, President Joe Biden—in search of a new label to pin on his political opponents after the failure of his “ultra-MAGA” branding, which prompted peals of laughter rather than shudders of horror—landed on a new slur with which to tar those who don’t support his agenda: they are, he said, semi-fascists. Speaking with a crowd of Democratic donors in Maryland, Biden reportedly said, “What we’re seeing now is either the beginning or the death knell of an extreme MAGA philosophy. It’s not just Trump, it’s the entire philosophy that underpins the—I’m going to say something—it’s semi-fascism.” Now, Democratic politicians painting half of Americans as beneath contempt is old hat.

It's only a day since we reported on California’s intention to outlaw sales of new combustion-engined vehicles from 2035, and already the ripples are being felt across the nation. The California Air Resources Board (CARB) that governs motor vehicle emissions for the state adopted new rules that will require 35% of the new cars sold in the state are electric or plug-in hybrids by 2026, with that percentage rising to 68% by 2030 and 100% by 2035. California has a waiver from the federal government to set its own air quality rules, and other states are allowed to opt into its regulations, which are typically more stringent than the national standards.

President Joe Biden is set to announce student loan forgiveness of $10,000 — and perhaps more — for lower-income debtors on Wednesday, in a move that is unconstitutional, unfair, and dangerous for the stability of our economy and our democracy. There is no doubt that some borrowers would benefit from student loan relief — especially young people, low earners, borrowers in the black community. It would help them avoid default, and perhaps allow some to enter the housing market. Some of these debtors can truly be seen as victims of a system that urges young people to attend college when other paths might be better suited to their talents

Police are still looking to charge another young female suspect.

Mike Mansfield (D-Mont.) gave him the best advice he ever received: “Joe, never attack another man’s motive, because you don’t know his motive.” Judging from Biden’s increasingly belligerent speeches, he has forgotten Mansfield’s eminently wise counsel. This was rendered abundantly clear during his Thursday speech at Independence Hall in Philadelphia.

The California Independent System Operator, the manager of the state’s power grid, issued the statewide Flex Alert from 4 to 9 p.m. Residents are urged to set their thermostats to 78 degrees Fahrenheit or higher, avoid using major appliances, avoid charging electric vehicles, and turning off unnecessary lights.

Busses of migrants sent to New York City from Texas were welcomed with handshakes and an official escort from members of Mayor Eric Adams' administration in Manhattan Sunday. Texas Governor Greg Abbott has ordered over a dozen buses of migrants to the Big Apple, Chicago, and Washington DC in an attempt to show them the nature of the crisis at the border. So far, Texas has forked out nearly $13million to Wynne Transportation—the charter service that is taking migrants to the various cities. Around 44 migrants got off Sunday's bus, which was ordered to New York by El Paso Mayor Oscar Leeser.

During this primary election cycle, a deceptive ploy by Democrats to get their candidates an easier ride into office has emerged–funneling campaign ad dollars into efforts to get the opponent of their choosing on the other side. The topic was brought up Sunday, surprisingly, during ABC News’ “This Week With George Stephanopoulos,” by co-host Martha Raddatz. Earlier in the program, as my colleague Bonchie shared, former mayor of Atlanta and current Biden senior adviser Keisha Lance Bottoms doubled down on the dangerous, hateful rhetoric President Joe Biden spewed

President Joe Biden rolled out a new nickname for MAGA Republicans on Labor Day during a lively speech where he also walked back comments suggesting Donald Trump's supporters believe in 'semi-fascism.' During his speech in Wisconsin on Monday, the president denounced the former president's followers as 'Trumpies' and claimed politicians on the 'extreme right' of the GOP are 'coming for your social security' and destroying worker pensions. At one point Biden was interrupted by a heckler—though he told Secret Service to 'let him go.' 'Everybody's entitled to be an idiot,' the president said to scattered laughter. And despite clarifying early on that 'not every Republican is a MAGA Republican,

The Weather Channel notified us on August 31 that “Rare Hurricane Season August Shutout Possible.” Really. “August is one of the core months of [the] Atlantic hurricane season.” But none this August. Only once since 1966 has there been a failure of a least one tropical storm to develop in the year’s eighth month. A few days prior to the publication of this article, the Weather Channel told us, “Atlantic Gets Busier; 4 Areas to Track Now.” Please! We need a hurricane to confirm that such climate disasters are indeed increasing like we say they are! A few dead bodies are imperative!

We've been hearing an awful lot, even from Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) himself, that Republicans taking back control of the Senate isn't as likely to happen, due to "candidate quality." It's worth noting that forecasters still have it as a "Toss-Up," or for Democrats only slightly favored to keep control of the chamber, as many races are tight in key seats. One of them, surprisingly enough, is in Washington state, where Sen. Patty Murray, the Democratic incumbent, is just a few percentage points ahead of her Republican challenger, Tiffany Smiley. This is according to a recent poll from the Trafalgar Group.

At a national level there is a unique policy priority that almost every politician, on both sides, will avoid discussing. At a national level a single policy priority determines all other national policy issues. That policy is the national economic policy. The national economic policy of a presidential candidate determines all other national policies that flow from the presidential candidate. The national economic policy impacts the obvious policies like energy and trade, and also determines the lesser obvious policies like regulation and even foreign policy. It is specifically because a candidate’s national economic outlook impacts all other issues, that most national politicians never talk about it.
