There is no question that the D.C. Establishment has been using J6 to pick a fight with ordinary Americans.
John and Nisha Whitehead over at The Rutherford Institute always write compelling essays documenting America's descent toward tyranny. "A State of Martial Law: America Is a Military Dictatorship Disguised as a Democracy" is no exception and deserves reading.
In that essay, the legal duo reminded me of something John Lennon once warned: "When it gets down to having to use violence, then you are playing the system's game. The establishment will irritate you — pull your beard, flick your face — to make you fight. Because once they've got you violent, then they know how to handle you."
There is no question that the D.C. Establishment has been picking a fight with ordinary Americans for quite some time. The Department of (in)Justice and federal law enforcement routinely look the other way whenever Antifa and Black Lives Matter domestic terrorists rough up citizens and destroy small businesses. Then a bunch of patriotic Americans without criminal records show up at the U.S. Capitol to protest the fraudulent 2020 election, and the Stasi FBI immediately labels every grandparent and veteran within miles an "insurrectionist."
While Soros-aligned prosecutors award the left's paramilitary brigades with accolades instead of incarcerations, the Feds have dragged J6 protesters through unfair criminal proceedings, inflicted unnecessary suffering, and forced political prisoners to languish without bail. When political prisoners finally do face trial, the government hides potentially exonerating video evidence and records under fabricated claims of "national security," prosecutors flippantly throw around terms like "treason" and "rebellion" in front of juries, and partisan judges are all too willing to hand down excessive sentences as an unconscionable form of political revenge.

And what are we going to do about it?
“We did not win independence from the british crown using sit-down strikes and non-violent protests.”
No, but we started with non-violent protests, until we were met with violence, which gave us the moral authority to respond with violence ourselves as justifiable self defense.
Modern day Americans mostly don’t even have the stomach for non-violent civil disobedience though.
Push to defund the FIB/DOJ.
Use the law to flip the predator/prey relationship until the predators are treated appropriately.
“Push to defund the FIB/DOJ.”
I’m glad you said “push to” because I think we both know that that’s all that will happen. They won’t actually be defunded.
Yup, out to destroy the man so they can become the man by fraud, deception and corruption.
All grifters:all criminals.
Like all criminals, they can’t figure a way to make an honest buck because a criminal mind doesn’t think that way.
Thats why marxism appeals to them.
