 Now it appears that the Governor of North Carolina has announced 100 more NG troops will be sent to Washington, DC:

All 300 guard members — serving in military police, engineering and armored brigade units based in Asheville, Clinton and Raeford — should be in place by Monday,

Now the Armored Brigade in Clinton, NC is the 30th Armored Brigade Combat Team. This is a heavy brigade with recent combat experience. So does this mean that they are bringing ARMOR? Or are they simply looking for warm bodies? The Clinton unit is the HHC, so I am not sure. 

The unit from Asheville is the 105th Military Police Battalion and the one from Raeford is the 105th Engineer Battalion.

Connecticut is sending 200 more. It looks to be a medical unit.

The deployments include “equipment and supplies” as well as personnel, including ambulances, the governor’s office said.

Pennsylvania is sending another 1,000 to join the 1,000 members of the 56th Stryker Brigade Combat Team already there. No word on which unit this addition is from. 

As of 21:50, New York is adding another 250. I don’t even know how many there are any more. 

Closer to (my) home, Governor Desantis activated an unspecified number of National Guard troops for duty inside of the State of Florida.  

Another interesting thing was this bit on rules of engagement for those units deployed in Washington, DC:

I know for instance that there is a detail of National Guard Bureau personnel up at the United States Capitol. They are complying with, and will comport with, the United States Capitol police’s use of force model. 

I wouldn’t bet on that. Remember that almost none of these troops have ever deployed or seen combat.  What do panicked, inexperienced people armed with automatic weapons do when they are scared and getting overrun?

 Can the Senate bar Donald J Trump from again holding the office of President?

An interesting question, and one that I think has been answered before. In  July of 1797, Senator William Blount was impeached by the House. Before his trial in the Senate could begin, the Senate expelled him and he left the Capitol to return to his home state of Tennessee. 

In January of 1799, the Senate finally began Blount’s impeachment trial, but Blount did not appear (he was already serving as the Speaker of the Tennessee Legislature). The trial commenced any way, and Blount’s  attorneys argued that since Blount had been expelled from the senate in July 1797, he was no longer an officer of the government and thus no longer subject to Senate jurisdiction.

In January of 1799, after three days of exhaustive arguments, the Senate deliberated behind closed doors, then voted on two resolutions. The first one failed to pass:

That William Blount was a civil officer of the United States within the meaning of the Constitution of the United States, and therefore liable to be impeached by the House of Representatives; That as the articles of impeachment charge him with high crimes and misdemeanors, supposed to have been committed while he was a Senator of the United States, his plea [to dismiss the charges] ought to be overruled.

The second one passed on January 11, 1799,  by a vote of 14–11:

The court is of opinion that the matter alleged in the plea of the defendant is sufficient in law to show that this court ought not to hold jurisdiction of the said impeachment, and that the said impeachment is dismissed.

So you can see that the Senate of the United States in 1799 already answered that question. Now, you could argue that one Congress cannot pass a resolution that is binding on a following Congress, and I would agree with you. However, we are talking about the plain meaning of the Constitution here. 

The question that the Senate was trying to answer was whether or not they had the power of impeachment. Impeachment was a term from British common law which was the removal of an officer of the government from that office. If we were to decide that any citizen is impeachable, then this would turn the entire system of jury trials on its head by permitting the Congress to hold trials and punish them without the judicial branch. This would be a violation of the separation of powers.  

 Now word is coming out that the Army is having trouble getting state Governors to commit to sending any more troops than they have already. The limit of what governors can or will send in National Guard troops is rapidly being reached. What next? Does the Pentagon begin using Active duty troops?

 CNN’s Jade Sacker entering the Capitol with a member of BLM/Antifa cheering, “We did it!” And then asking her conspirator if he was filming, he said he’d delete it, he lied. CNN was in on it. CNN was embedded with BLM/Antifa pretending to be Trump supporters as they entered the Capitol.

This was a false flag. The entire thing was a setup from the beginning. There is no longer any doubt in my mind. Of course the left is claiming that this has been ‘debunked’ and that they were only there to “document” the event. 

 Last night, I complained that the troop surge in DC was hard to keep up with as the number of troops was increased to 21,000 with a possibility of 26,000. Now it has increased again, this time to 26,000 with a possibility of 30,000 troops.  

 If Trump supposedly made the speech that caused the Capitol incursion on January 6, then how in the world did the FBI know enough ahead of time to visit dozens ‘white supremacists’ on the terror watch list in the weeks before the incident and tell them not to go to DC? 

Before the Jan. 6 gathering of pro-Trump protesters, FBI agents visited a number of suspected extremists and advised them against traveling to the nation’s capital.

Now why in the world would the FBI visit people’s homes, watch list or not, and tell them not to go to DC, unless the Feebs already knew ahead of time what was going to happen?

I originally thought the whole theory that the storming of the Capitol was a false flag was more deranged bullshit. Now, I am not so sure. The FBI knew ahead of time that something was going down, and were concerned enough to visit the homes of people to tell them not to go. However, the security apparatus didn’t put security on alert? According to officials, the Capitol Police were ‘undermanned and unprepared’ even though the FBI was worried? Yet the Capitol police, Secret Service, and the DC police all resisted doing anything to prepare?

According to the Capitol police, the National Guard only shows up to D.C. when they’ve been invited, and the Capitol Police did not extend that invitation until after the breach. 

Bullshit. The NG was already there. I even blogged about it on January 4. 

It doesn’t pass the smell test.  

 Due to recent events, I feel it is only a matter of time before the servers at blogger begin to shut down double ungood plus badthink sites like this blog. Therefore, in the near future, this blog will be moving to an offshore server that is hosted by a company who will be less likely to shut us down. This is going to cost me a fair bit of money. 

So, I want to both offset my costs and give other small bloggers an opportunity to share this server with me. I am looking for a handful (three to five) of bloggers who would like to move their blog to this virtual, offshore server. If you desire, you can also have email service with your own, secure email address. This would permit another layer of anonymity.

The cost would be somewhere between $20 and $35 a month, payable quarterly. My IT services guy would also charge for moving your blog from wherever it is to the new location. More details to follow.

If you are interested, you can contact me by commenting below, or by sending me a PM through the gunfreezone forum. 

As for this blog moving, it will be happening at some point within the next few days.
