Thanks for the ping, Jack. It is a very good article.

“He missed the Leftist coup to get Nixon out of office. That was the true turning point in the American political system.”

The best book on that still is Colodny and Gettlin’s 1991 book “Silent Coup”.

“BTW, a little off topic, but I’ve never seen why Nadler was allowed not only to participate but to direct much of this.”

Because the Democrats control the House and get to choose the committee chairman.

Send your thanks to Paul Ryan for his great help in handing the House over to the Democrats.

So why did Oswald shoot and kill Officer Tippits?

That’s a debatable question but I am not going to go back and forth with you.

Even a liberal whack job writing for freaking Rolling Stone— understands that allowing the “intel community” to rule in a cabal of elite unelected “club” of data horde spooks over the citizens-— is exactly like East Germany’s “democratic republic”, communist dictatorship. The Stasi was nearly every 6th person... all on their payroll, as was the entire “media” so called.

Hopefully someone on the dem’s side is listening— they’d better. We are coming for them in a very different sense, if they do not stop lying. We, the People. We happy few.

Something’s happening. We can sit here and twiddle our fingers, or we can try something different. Either way s#it’s going to happen.
As far as I can see, the Left and the deep state has already destroyed our government.
The question is what are we, and President Trump going to do about it? America as we knew it is now a pipe dream.

I don’t blame you. There is no good explanation.

Mark Lane knew that. So when he spun his tale designed to shift blame away from a communist fellow traveler like himself he didn’t provide an answer.

Rather than suffer through the bloody civil war you'd get with this the founders already put the solution into the Constitution. It's called Article V and its about time people stop worrying about it because the alternative, what you suggested, is much worse.

I think you're naive.

The Secret Service and local police have routinely shut down and closed off buildings with elevated sniper positions. They both allowed shooters in prime positions, and recruited shooters for them in November 1963.

Yes, you’re correct. We are in the middle of a so-called fourth Generation War, described by William S. Lind and the Israeli military historian/writer Martin van Creveld.

What is Fourth Generation Warfare? Our drug wars fought by “protected minorities.” Our political leadership believes our drug wars are minor “retail level” skirmishes. But they aren’t. Instead they finance far off enemies trying for decades to overthrow this country. Lind calls them “Cultural Marxists.” They are indeed Marxists who are destroying our culture, via drugs, rampant minority and ethnic crime. And using the Italian Communist Antonio gramsci’s “Long March” through our institutions: educational establishment, media, entertainment, military, government, and all other things that holds a culture together.

And, ironically, and to the Cultural Marxists advantage, our Christian and Constitutional culture makes it virtually impossible to fight the criminal Marxists who observe no civilized rules, and with our corrupt legal system are often out on the streets before law enforcement’s quitting time for the day.

Having a decent, fair, and good civilization be destroyed because we have a culture that allows those determined to destroy us to use our culture to destroy all civilization is totally wrong. Being “liberal” in the old sense of the word”shouldn’t be a suicide pact.

And it needn’t be. Mr. Lind is right: the best way to fight fourth generation war is with “a well regulated (but flexible) militia.

A militia is the best preservative of our culture and nation against Fourth Generation War.

But I would add something else: The Medieval concept of the “Outlaw,” as someone so outside the pale that he could, and should be killed on sight, with no consequence to the outlaw’s killer.

What should define an outlaw in our civil war which is coming?

Any criminal should be defined as an outlaw. Any armed traitor should also be so defined—and killed on sight.

And criminal should include anyone selling, buying and using hard drugs! Remember hard drugs finance those who march through our institutions.

How can we prove people are criminals? How about smart phone photos? See criminal activity photograph it, and kill the outlaw criminal.

I’m afraid this is the only way to save our culture, civilization, and country.

It might seem I’m just another keyboard commando spinning a cheap revenge scenario. But I’m not. I’m armed, determined and waiting like so many millions of others for the inevitable balloon to go up. Then it’s fight or die—or both. This will be the fate and destiny of all of us all too soon.

Even paranoiacs have enemies, and even Donald “Deep State” Trump is a legitimately elected president whose ouster is being actively sought by the intelligence community.

and there it is, something wicked this way comes...

Interesting article. My take is he seems to be with the coup plotters. Is that correct?

He dislikes Trump but thinks the plotters are worse and dangerous.

Unfortunately the 'plotters' are still with us in 2021...
