I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve.

First the IRS came for the Tea Party, and I did not speak out—because I was not in the Tea Party..

Then the FBI came for the people close to Trump, and I did not speak out—because I was not part of the Administration.

Then the DOJ came for parents at school board meetings, and I did not speak out—because I was not a young parent.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

— with apology to Martin Niemöller

How many other conservative Americans will be arrested in the next few days?

I referenced that quote here a couple of times recently.
Agree.

Their bullying and hubris may someday go over the edge but so far they get away with everything Satan can give them.

The Dems/Deep State have declared War on Americans! They are coming after you and me with the IRS, FBI and DOJ. Americans will never surrender.

Does anyone have a copy of the warrant if there even was one? And who was it served to and how?

If it’s time to fight this is the hill I’m willing to die on.

I say it’s already backfiring on them, and it may very well have been an attempt at provocation, since J6 is going nowhere.

Keep your powder dry for now.

Ah, but you’re probably right. The entire country was united after Dec. 7, 1941. No one was still sitting on the fence. This disgusting move by Biden’s FBI will not unite the entire GOP that way.

I’ve been saying for a long time that the battle is no longer defined as “Democrats vs. Republicans”, or even “Left vs. Right.” It’s now nothing less than Americans vs. anti-Americans, and unfortunately many who claim to be on the American side are actually every bit as anti-American as the most rabid Leftist. It’s just that these fake Americans are fighting against America’s founding principles because to do so is financially beneficial to them and provides them with the power they crave, while the Leftists do it in pursuit of their crazy dream of destroying America and replacing it with a Marxist/globalist “utopia.”

Free Republic needs to accept demographic and political reality.

The Republican Party in general and Conservatives specifically are not a Sleeping Giant.

In the last eight presidential elections, the GOP has received a majority of the popular vote just one time - in 2004, when Bush squeaked by with 50.7%.

The only way we can win enough electoral votes for the White House is to squeak out a tiny plurality in at least six swing states.

In Congress - on our best day - we can only win razor thin majorities in the House and Senate, and only then by electing at least 10% RINOs.

Whoever ordered this raid will be discovered and destroyed.

Look no further than Ron Klein, Biden’s Chief of Staff, and admitted architect of the 2020 election fraud.

If you see clearly, then look to the secret hours long conversations Biden had with Xi Jinping.

Democrats running and massively cheating in local, State, Federal and Presidential elections since 1960. How does anyone determine what the majority number actually is?

The director of Tora! Tora! Tora!, Richard Fleischer, stated that while Yamamoto may never have said those words, the film’s producer, Elmo Williams, had found the line written in Yamamoto’s diary. Williams, in turn, has stated that Larry Forrester, the screenwriter, found a 1943 letter from Yamamoto to the Admiralty in Tokyo containing the quotation. However, Forrester cannot produce the letter, nor can anyone else, American or Japanese, recall it or find it. Randall Wallace, the screenwriter of the 2001 film Pearl Harbor, readily admitted that he copied the line from Tora! Tora! Tora! - wiki


The line was never said by the real guy, but written by a screen writer.

I'm guessing Xi offered more than diamonds and cash to US 'elites'... The drug addicted whore monger son of 'the big guy' and maybe the sniffer himself - would know the pleasures of the forbidden. DC stinks like blackmail...

Well, that could be, but given the Chinese CCP elites’ desire to take the US mainland before they die off, and given DJT’s tariff humiliation, and Biden’s financial contracts with the CCP, I then to think there was a lot more than some monetary dealings.
