Power Grab

Promises Made

Susan Rice, President Biden’s domestic policy chief, is promising revenge against the voters, business executives, and appointees who support President Donald Trump.

In an interview this week, Rice declared that supporters of Trump can expect the proverbial knocks on their doors: “A very prominent public figure, who has served at nearly the very highest levels, once told me … ‘Revenge is best served cold,’ and the older I get, the more I see the wisdom of that.” She added: When it comes to the elites, you know, the corporate interests, the law firms, the universities, the media … it’s not going to end well for them, for those that decided that they would act in their perceived very narrow self-interest, which I would underscore, is very short-term self-interest, and, you know, take a knee to Trump.

They hate you and want you dead. Don’t forget that, as they compare you to NAZIs, Fascists, and call you deplorable, once they regain power as they eventually will, they will begin hunting down, killing, and imprisoning those with whom they disagree.

It’s coming, and all the election of Trump has done is create a small, temporary speed bump in their plans.

Prove It

One of the things we hear constantly from the left is “there is no evidence of widespread voter fraud” in US elections. There is plenty of evidence of fraud at the grassroots level, however. There is the case of Laura Lee Yourex of Costa Mesa, California, who registered her dog to vote and cast ballots in at least two elections for the dog. In October 2024, the dog received a ballot, despite the fact that the dog had died. She didn’t do it with the intention of actually affecting the election- the did it to prove that California’s balloting system is rife with fraud. Once the dog cast a ballot, she turned herself in. Perhaps that’s the real reason she is being prosecuted with 5 felony charges.

Two million dead people are registered to vote, with another 24 million ballots being incomplete or incorrect THAT WE KNOW OF. There is also the problem of people voting in multiple states. The guy in this news story specializes in catching Republicans who do so.

A few Republican voters have been caught and convicted of voting in multiple states as a result of his efforts. Of course, he hasn’t reported any Democrats that I am aware of. He claims to be nonpartisan, but his Twitter handle is @bluebroward. In case you weren’t aware, Broward is the county in Florida most famous for taking days to discover tens of thousands of ballots in more than a couple of Florida elections.

Democrats like Chuck Schumer argued for ID checks in the 90s to prevent illegal aliens from committing voting fraud. Now he and the rest of Democrats are opposed to it. Why? If ID checks were protecting the system then, but are attacking democracy now, the only thing that’s actually changed is which side of the ballot they’re worried about. Consistency isn’t the goal; the goal is the goal.

If the US saw even a fraction of these voting issues in another country, we would accuse that country of not having valid elections. It’s time to clean this up.

Vote Harder

11 Republicans have joined Democrats in an Amnesty Bill for illegal immigrants, called the “Dignity Act of 2025.” It offers 7-year, renewable legal status with work authorization to illegal immigrants who pay $7,000 in restitution. In other words, amnesty. Give it a few years, and illegals will have full voting rights, and you as a taxpayer will be funding it forever.

Donald Trump was voted into office on one major platform- curbing illegal immigration. In response, Republicans are doing what they have always done in response to gun control: They pay lip service to a voting bloc, whether that bloc is gun owners or those opposing illegal immigration, get elected on that platform, then as soon as it becomes politically convenient to do so, turn their backs on those groups who elected them.

My prediction is this: If this bill gets passed, it is the end of the MAGA movement. Those who voted for its promises will disengage, myself included. There is no point in electing Republicans, if those Republicans will simply vote for the exact same things as Democrats. The result is the same, the only difference is who gets to cash in on sweet taxpayer graft.

Let this pass, and I won’t vote in another election. Not ever.

This Is Bad

Freedom loving Americans are getting their asses kicked by the Communists. I’ve been warning my readers for nearly 6 years of the coordination, the funding, and the training being displayed by the left. Their C3 and intel is equal to a professional army.

What does the right have? A bunch of uncoordinated people with guns. I just dont think that’s enough. The right needs to get all of its shit in one sock, or they are gonna get rolled.

It’s Time

They are cranking up the threats and rhetoric. Be ready, they are psyching themselves up for the next phase.

You know where all of the liberals in your area live, right? Keep an eye on them and make sure they don’t do anything stupid.

Someone needs to report this guy so the cops can red flag his ass.

Fifth Generation

The point of warfare is to force an enemy to capitulate, to force them into taking actions that you want them to take. Before there was modern warfare, battles were not as organized as one would think, being essentially a large bar fight. The came tactics where combatants would stand in organized groups that allowed them to maximize the power of there weapons. Formations like the phalanx, lines, and ranks were some of the earliest modern ways of fighting. This was First Generation warfare.

The Second Generation of warfare came about with the invention of gunpowder weapons like the musket. The basic tactics of this style of fighting were refined, using breech loading cannons, indirect fire, and even machine guns.

That all changed with the advent of mechanized warfare. Speed, shock, and even aerial bombardment meant that all of the Second Generation types of warfare obsolete. This Third Generation warfare played out in World War 2 and the First Gulf War.

Then came the advent of Fourth Generation warfare. This was necessitated because governments and large armies became quite adept at destroying any combatants they could see. Weaker nations responded by blurring the line between military versus civilian. This is how the Second Gulf war and Afghanistan were fought. Mix combatants in with non-combatants, and the enemy either fails to engage your forces, or they mistakenly engage civilians- either way results in a win for your side.

Now we have Fifth Generation: it’s fought virtually. It is a war of information, computers, and artificial intelligence. I think that the people who came up with this concept overlooked the utility of drones. The idea of 5GW is your combatants don’t need to risk death in order to commit to battle. That’s where we are in the US today- and the left is far better at it than the right. That’s really what cancel culture is: this is the left engaging in destroying the right’s will to fight by using means other than actual violent fighting.

It’s becoming quite effective. DJT just gave in and capitulated. The battle for Minneapolis was just lost. We are one step closer to a complete collapse.

Still, some are fighting the good fight. Read on:

You Won’t

Liberal white Karen says they are going door to door, looking for Trump supporters, once DJT is no longer in office.

They always tell you exactly who they are. They aren’t shy about getting their pogroms on, are they?

Over 70 million Trump voters, and they own about 500 million guns, give or take 200 million. I’m betting Karen won’t be going door to door. Here is a common core math problem:

If you want to go door to door, asking people if they are MAGA supporters and imprisoning them if they say yes, how many door kickers will get shot before your retarded ass runs out of people willing to ask the question?

Like I Said

I made this point more than 5 years ago, but I was ridiculed for it. People are starting to get it:

As a former Special Forces Warrant Officer with multiple rotations running counterinsurgency ops—both hunting insurgents and trying to separate them from sympathetic populations—I’ve seen organized resistance up close. From Anbar to Helmand, the pattern is familiar: spotters, cutouts, dead drops (or modern equivalents), disciplined comms, role specialization, and a willingness to absorb casualties while bleeding the stronger force slowly.

What’s unfolding in Minneapolis right now isn’t “protest.” It’s low-level insurgency infrastructure, built by people who’ve clearly studied the playbook.

Signal groups at 1,000-member cap per zone. Dedicated roles: mobile chasers, plate checkers logging vehicle data into shared databases, 24/7 dispatch nodes vectoring assets, SALUTE-style reporting (Size, Activity, Location, Unit, Time, Equipment) on suspected federal vehicles. Daily chat rotations and timed deletions to frustrate forensic recovery. Vetting processes for new joiners. Mutual aid from sympathetic locals (teachers providing cover, possible PD tip-offs on license plate lookups). Home-base coordination points. Rapid escalation from observation to physical obstruction—or worse.

This isn’t spontaneous outrage. This is C2 (command and control) with redundancy, OPSEC hygiene, and task organization that would make a SF team sergeant nod in recognition. Replace “ICE agents” with “occupying coalition forces” and the structure maps almost 1:1 to early-stage urban cells we hunted in the mid-2000s.

The most sobering part? It’s domestic. Funded, trained (somewhere), and directed by people who live in the same country they’re trying to paralyze law enforcement in. When your own citizens build and operate this level of parallel intelligence and rapid-response network against federal officers—complete with doxxing, vehicle pursuits, and harassment that’s already turned lethal—you’re no longer dealing with civil disobedience. You’re facing a distributed resistance that’s learned the lessons of successful insurgencies: stay below the kinetic threshold most of the time, force over-reaction when possible, maintain popular support through narrative, and never present a single center of gravity.

I spent years training partner forces to dismantle exactly this kind of apparatus. Now pieces of it are standing up in American cities, enabled by elements of local government and civil society. That should keep every thinking American awake at night.

Not because I want escalation. But because history shows these things don’t de-escalate on their own once the infrastructure exists and the cadre believe they’re winning the information war.

We either recognize what we’re actually looking at—or we pretend it’s still just “activism” until the structures harden and spread.

Your call, America. But from where I sit, this isn’t January 2026 politics anymore. It’s phase one of something we’ve spent decades trying to keep off our own soil.

The left is following the CIA insurgency manual to a tee. We are seeing an organized attempt at overthrowing the government.

Note that with this past shooting, the left is all singing the same song on the Internet and social media: he had a second amendment right to attack that cop while carrying a gun. It’s as if there is a single, approved script. This isn’t grassroots, it’s Astroturf.

Hey You, Get on to my Cloud

My Dad was an engineer for Hewlett Packard. When I was a kid, I grew up in a world where computers took up an entire room, and when my dad had to work on the weekends, he would bring us with him. To entertain me, he would allow me to use mainframes to play games. Back then, games weren’t nearly as polished as now. I played games like the text based Star Trek or Lunar Lander. I remember that there was a text based drag racing simulator. Later, after cartridge-based video games like the Atari came out, my Dad and his coworkers showed me how to use a machine that would burn ROM chips with software called “Bruno,” that would read a cartridge then create a ROM that was an exact copy while a message on the computer monitor would say: “Bruno is crunching data. Nom. Nom. Nom.” I owned hundreds of Atari and Intellivision games as a result.

I am willing to bet that I played games on millions of dollars of mainframes. The point to this story, was my dad once predicted that computers were too expensive and large for the average American to have in their homes, but he said that one day, it would be common for Americans to have a terminal at their home, and they could rent computer time. He didn’t foresee the revolution that would make computers as powerful as those mainframes fit in the palm of your hand. However, it turns out that he was quite astute when it came to the business side of things.

Jeff Bezos has declared that people will soon have nothing but terminals in their homes, which they will use to rent cloud computing time as a subscription model. Cloud computer is, of course, a term meaning someone else’s computer. Namely, Jeff Bezos’ computer. It’s because companies are busy buying up every computer chip they can lay their hands on. 64gb of RAM that cost me $230 in October are now costing over $600 now. A 4tb SSD that cost $215 in October costs $430 now.

It seems that these companies buying up all of the production have driven costs through the roof. Those same people are saying that they will let you rent the computers they just built, at a handsome markup, of course.

And they are wrong. When prices climb like they have, the market response is predictable. Other companies will enter the market, causing prices to stabilize. Eventually, prices will come down. The first home computers were expensive.

The IBM PC (1981) started at $1,565 (over $4,000 today) for a basic model, with only a 5.25 inch floppy drive for storage. I remember that my Commodore 64 had one of those drives (external, of course) and that drive cost $350. Why was it called the ’64’? Because it had only 64 kilobytes (KB) of RAM, which is where it gets its name, plus about 20 KB of ROM for its operating system and BASIC interpreter, and the Commodore 64 was popular because it had more memory than its competitors. 64kb of ram is literally one millionth of the capacity of the computer I am typing this one.

Those 5.25 inch floppy drives? Yeah, they held 512 kb of data, and you could double that if you had a hole puncher. Those of you who know how that works, well, you know. The NAS that I use for storing files in the house? It has 12 TB of storage space, meaning it can store the same amount of information as more than 12 million of those drives, hole puncher or not.

The point is this: the market will respond, and it will be as difficult to force Americans to rent computer time online as it will be to tell Americans that they have to buy shares in a community automobile. The real purpose of this is control. If they control your car, your computer, and what you do with them, they control you.

Then there is nothing that they can’t make you do. The title of this piece, most of you will recognize, is a paraphrase of a Rolling Stones song, meant as a protest of how restrictive the Stones thought American society was in the 1960s. It’s odd to me that the counter culture of the 60s is now wanting to give birth to a society that is far more restrictive than 1960s America ever was.
