Verify BEFORE trust.
I don’t see a problem with this. People ARE spooked.
1 MAN stands between an impostor Indonesian destroying
the United States of America.
1 MAN.
How many are need to save the Constitution?
He just lost my vote.
If he believes he’s a nut.
If he doesn’t believe it, but asked to make the wing nuts feel better he is a pander-bear.
Finally, if he expected any answer other than the one he got—he’s an idiot.
This whole JH thing is an embarrassment to the right. What are y’all gonna do when you wake up and realize the riechstagg is not on fire?
Anyone who thinks that 1,200 special operations personnel can take over Texas reads too many comicbooks.
The idea behind Jade Helm is primarily a psy-ops to get people used to seeing the military and their equipment in civilian areas. It’s the old Fabian tactics, slowly boiling the frog.
The second purpose is to regularize relations between military and local & state police & local governments. The military will also need to know where they will find resistance and where there will be support. Think of this as recon in “mastering the human domain”
Another goal for participants is “blending in” with the local population. This will allow the military to acquire information and test and refine infiltration and intelligence gathering techniques against suspected resistors (constitutionalists, Bible based Christians, vets, gun owners)
Drill for opposition crowd control and dissident extraction has already been documented.
This drill is expensive and has the potential to result in negative and possibly dangerous interactions with the public. It is the end of posse comitatis and Ted Cruz is right to be concerned.
These journalists are too predictable.
Facts just do not phase them.
Looking across the ME, at what these people have done to destroy county after country, I think they have lots of practice in destabilizing governments.
Take it for what it’s worth.
Active Duty ping.
Hasn’t there been expressed concern about a possible attack on Fort Bliss in Texas...a U.S. military base near the Mexican border. I was hoping Jade Helm was being put in place to safeguard Fort Bliss and to make sure the entire border wasn’t attacked by ISIS or the like...but 1200 men are a piddly amount for such a long exposed border, and certainly surely the military wouldn’t advertise the fact they were coming and spell out the dates. It’s a riddle and hopefully we’ll know more about it after the fact at least.
I subscribe to the notion that the government is aware of a pending natural disaster and is positioning to pick up the pieces afterwards.
It makes sense that they would keep something like this hidden if there is nothing anyone can do about it.
Most likely an asteroid headed our way.
for later
“.....because when the federal government has not demonstrated itself to be trustworthy in this administration, the natural consequence is that many citizens don’t trust what it is saying.”
Now there is the understatement of the week.
Go, Cruz, GO.
Just imagine the much needed fresh air that Cruz will bring to the White House.
I stand with Ted

I am so glad that America has finally woken up to what’s really going down. The many posts on this site are just a tiny fraction of what is burning up the internet on this issue right now. Baltimore? Nobody cares. To the rest of America, that’s just a “look at the squirrel” distraction.
