’24 Election: Stage Being Set

Remember my post from yesterday? The one where I told you that the left was accusing Republicans of plotting to overthrow the government, even though it was the Democrats that did so? In that post, I made the claim that things would get so bad as to seem surreal.

I am right again. The latest is that a retired Federal judge (a Bush appointee) claims that 2020 was a dry run for Trump and other Republicans to shift the 2024 election in their favor, regardless of the actual results. The judge claims:

January 6 was never about a stolen election or even about actual voting fraud. It was always and only about an election that Trump lost fair and square, under legislatively promulgated election rules in a handful of swing states that he and other Republicans contend were unlawfully changed by state election officials and state courts to expand the right and opportunity to vote, largely in response to the Covid pandemic.

He goes on to claim that “Republicans have grown increasingly wary of the Electoral College with the new census and political demographics of the nation’s shifting population.”

That is complete and utter horseshit. This very blog has documented the Democrats’ efforts to get rid of the Electoral College since 2016. In fact, just a few weeks before the 2020 election, CNN was campaigning for packing SCOTUS to eliminate the Electoral College.

You’re going to have to get rid of the Electoral College, because the people — because the minority in this country decides who the judges are and they decide who the president is. Is that — is that fair?” Lemon said.

Cuomo responded by noting a constitutional amendment — which requires two-thirds approval from Congress and three-fourths approval from states — is required to eliminate the Electoral College.

Lemon shot back, “If Democrats, if Joe Biden wins, Democrats can stack the courts and they can do that amendment and they can get it passed.”

No, it isn’t about the Electoral college. It isn’t about 2020. This is about power. It’s about twisting and rewriting the past to hide the Democrat’s obvious shenanigans in the 2020 election. It’s about suppressing the Republican vote in the 2024 election. The left is laying the groundwork for the elimination of any real choice in the 2024 election.

Coup Continues

The left continues accusing Republicans of plotting to overthrow the government, even though it was the Democrats that did so. The election was falsified, and now anyone who opposes or exposes what the left did is going to be ousted from power. Perhaps it will be a few Republicans, perhaps all Republicans who aren’t RINOs, or perhaps it will be the entire party.

This will all come to a head before the election. Hang on, shit is going to seem surreal.

ANTIFA Tampa Area Outcome

If you remember, there was a member of Antifa who was caught bringing explosives to a Tampa area political rally. He was found to be in possession of Antifa materials, pipe bombs, and other materials. He was charged with loitering or prowling, making a destructive device, and two counts of possession of destructive devices. That was January.

He reached a plea deal where he pled no contest to the second degree misdemeanor of loitering, received 6 months probation and had to pay a total of $575 in court costs and fines. All other charges were dropped. Why? Because the ATF ruled that none of these were explosive devices:

Question of Florida Law

Watch this video of Antifa using fireworks as antipersonnel devices (at the 1:52 mark, you see a thrown firework explode in the crowd at a rally for a political candidate):

In Florida, a person is justified in using or threatening to use deadly force if he or she reasonably believes that using or threatening to use such force is necessary to prevent imminent death or great bodily harm to himself or herself or another or to prevent the imminent commission of a forcible felony.

So is it reasonable for a person to believe that fireworks are capable of causing death or great bodily injury? I would argue that, being thrown deliberately into a crowd

If not, is it reasonable for a person to believe that the “unlawful throwing, placing, or discharging of a destructive device or bomb” is a forcible felony that must be stopped?

For reference: destructive device is defined as any bomb, grenade, mine, rocket, missile, pipebomb, or similar device containing an explosive, incendiary, or poison gas and includes any frangible container filled with an explosive, incendiary, explosive gas, or expanding gas, which is designed or so constructed as to explode by such filler and is capable of causing bodily harm or property damage.

Now the law goes on to say that fireworks are not considered to be destructive devices. I would argue that, once a firework is being used as an antipersonnel device, it has been redesigned. In fact, there is a case in Florida where a person used fireworks as destructive devices and tried to make the argument that since they were only fireworks, they were exempt. The appeals court ruled that the way a firework is used can make it a destructive device.

The analysis of Mitchell’s conduct would be more difficult had he used the devices as fireworks. But taping a firework on a window is not typically the manner by which one explodes fireworks for visible and audible effect. Rather, it evinces a purpose to destroy property. The devices in his possession were powerful enough to fall within the definition of a destructive device as one capable of causing bodily harm or property damage.

Although I am not a lawyer, I believe that in Florida, it is lawful to use deadly force to prevent individuals from using fireworks as weapons by throwing them into a crowd.

What say you?

Pass The Gasoline

Amidst the highest level of inflation since Jimmy Carter, the current resident of the White House is considering throwing gasoline on the fire by waving his executive pencil and forgiving $10,000 in student loan debt per borrower.

The administration claims that this will forgive $321 billion in loans, but my back of the napkin figures place that at closer to $400 billion. In any case, that means that another $350 billion or so dollars will suddenly be added to the dollars circulating through this inflationary economy in a time when we should be tightening economic purse strings, not spending like there is no tomorrow.

Inflation will continue to get worse. It’s like a couple of 14 year old kids are playing with a can of gasoline and some matches. In the house.

CIA? DOD? Who?

A former Marine with a BCD was killed in Ukraine while working for a “military contracting company.” Note the details that the MSM for some strange reason chooses to omit. Did they really not ask the name of the “private military contracting company” that’s apparently recruiting prison guards in Tennessee to go fight Russia? They know his JROTC instructor, they know about his high school, and even interviewed his roommate and former boss.

Why can’t I find one single mention in any media account that mentions the name of the company?

Is there any chance this “company” could have ties to the US Govt.?

Would the name of this company be Christians In Action?

An Infantryman and a Pencil Pusher

Watch this video where a BAR rifleman who fought his way across France during World War 2 talks about his experiences. Remember that he received 2 Bronze stars for his brave actions in combat. In all, he has six total decorations.

Then I want you to remember that General Mark Milley has 4 bronze stars, along with 43 other decorations. He received 47 decorations without once firing a shot at a single enemy. I would also note that his Wikipedia page is so long and complimentary, he must have had one of his staffers write it for him.
