“Then blue city victims will blame Trump for egging them on.”
Only the Blue victims will blame Trump, which they already do anyway. The Leftists are operating under the mistaken idea that being a complete pain in the butt (blocking streets, general violence, vandalism, insult etc.) will win for them. All it does is make people trying to go about their lives angry. Rioting is a loser for them.
We’ve got a few in congress.
I think this is a real threat.
But we’re not there yet.
Iran isn’t going to play that card because it’s a one time play and it’s forever done.
This is for Iran a last / final sort of resort.
Well if the sleeper cell comes to our house we’ll put them back to sleep. š
“We have an armed populous.
Rogue Iranian cells can only do so much, until they are dead.”
They set of bombs. It’s unlikely they’ll try to shoot anyone. If they do it will be in a gun free zone. There’s one GFZ I normally carry in. They set up a magnetic checkpoint with a “guard.” The guard was a possible sixty-year-old, overweight, black woman. She appeared to be armed with a stun gun. I can’t imagine she would be of much use against an active killer. More just a speedbump. It’s ridiculous I have to surrender my ability to defend myself to what I believe to be an absolute incompetent.
But back to the point. If these are trained terrorists, you won’t have a chance to fire back. You’ll never see them.
I'd start with the sanctuary cities, where the sleeper cells may have felt comfortable hiding in.
Oh, wait a minute...

State militias are independent, state-controlled military forces. In contrast, the National Guard is a federally recognized reserve force that can be activated by both state and federal governments.
As of 2024, there exist 20 active state defense forces and 5 active naval militias. The Puerto Rico State Guard includes an air support component, the 1st Air Base Group, that support the operations of the Puerto Rico Air National Guard.
The District of Columbiaās Code mentions the establishment of a āReserve Corpsā and a āNaval Battalionā as potential state militias.
However, while these entities are listed in the Code, they were never actually organized or brought into existence. The legislative framework allows for their creation, but they remain theoretical and have not been operationalized. The code provision outlines their intended structure and function, but historical records indicate that these militias were never established.
Weāre about to find out.
An armed populous is not going to stop an IED that is detonated from afar with timers or other trigger devices.
When the Chinese sent a mystery cargo plane to Iran I wondered if either a nuclear device or bioweapon was delivered.
A spread of deadly gas or spores over US ships would be a sneaky Chinese method of helping their Iranian cohorts.
Likely it was. But the choice is fight or surrender so what are you going to do, even if there are likely terrorists that got into your country? Better than a nuke in one of your ports.
In fact, anyone that questions this, point out the assassinations in the past in Europe and elsewhere.
It should be assumed that Iran has sleepers, targets, maybe even some pre cached supplies needed to conduct such missions here.
But the conditions for the use of this capability aren't there yet.
Agree.
On Law and Order SVU.
Detective: What happened to that bleeding heart of yours?
Benson: All the blood drained out of it.
People like to say that Iran wasn’t a threat to this country. If Iran wasn’t a threat to America, then why are there sleeper cells here?
“”the framework is there.........................””
Yeah, the framework is there.... but these militias are not organized to the point of being ‘in sync’ with each other, communications-wise. They need to be all connected, on the same page and able to react quickly... and currently, I don’t think that is the case. At least, not the one I’m familiar with. Others might be that I am unaware of.
Some may be already out?!
May I have a dispensation to obtain a sniper rifle for my home, free of charge? I promise to practice respect and safety in its use.
She talks about how American law enforcement is trained to deal with mass shooters, one person incidents etc. and how these teams of 10 aren’t here to fight and fallback, they’re here to inflict terror in the heartland. She’s advocating law enforcement to work with members who have served in the Mid East to understand their tactics.
Pssst, it’s fedayeen, populace and Cheyenne.
Absolutely. Better than watching the weak enemy get stronger just because there are cowards in your own country.
