May 31 - Supporters of former President Donald Trump, enraged by his conviction on 34 felony counts by a New York jury, flooded pro-Trump websites with calls for riots, revolution and violent retribution.
After Trump became the first U.S. president to be convicted of a crime, his supporters responded with dozens of violent online posts, according to a Reuters review of comments on three Trump-aligned websites: the former president's own Truth Social platform, Patriots.Win and the Gateway Pundit.
Some called for attacks on jurors, the execution of the judge, Justice Juan Merchan, or outright civil war and armed insurrection. “Someone in NY with nothing to lose needs to take care of Merchan,” wrote one commentator on Patriots.Win. “Hopefully he gets met with illegals with a machete,” the post said in reference to illegal immigrants.
On Gateway Pundit, one poster suggested shooting liberals after the verdict. “Time to start capping some leftys,” said the post. “This cannot be fixed by voting."
Threats of violence and intimidating rhetoric soared after Trump lost the 2020 election and falsely claimed the vote was stolen. As he campaigns for a second White House term, Trump has baselessly cast the judges and prosecutors in his trials as corrupt tools of the Biden administration, intent on sabotaging his White House bid. His loyalists have responded with a campaign of threats and intimidation targeting judges and court officials.

Please no. That would make Biden & his evil trash happy. Let them begin the real ugly stuff,
The FBI infiltrators are in place.
Riots? What a waste of time and effort. This is about power and justice.
I remember when the Marxists called the Tea Party a violent group. The media were waiting for them to beat up an instigator who was set up in a rally to provoke trouble. Then they would saturate the news about the violent Tea Party. It’s the same game that was played on January 6th.
Because the Marxists can’t generate the crowds for Biden, they will be out in force to disrupt the Trump rallies. The media will use how the Trump followers reacts to these troublemakers to kill the MAGA movement. I say beware of this tactic and plan well how to deal with these troublemakers.
We just want to do what BLM and Antifa did. You know, “mostly peaceful protests”.
> A false flag riot is a very real possibility.
Patriot Front to the rescue ;-)
I really hope Trump taps into the huge YouTube creator channels. That is where the black vote is hiding today. PBD would also be a good channel for him.start with the Hodge Twins they are hilarious.
How do you fight the Biden regime and the left? The same way it’s done in every other communist dictatorship— being passive aggressive. You let the system rot from the inside out. Treat the federal government as the illegitimate puppet regime that it is.
Don’t fight their wars, don’t do them any favors, have as little to do with them as possible.
Funny I just looked outside and dont see buildings burnt to the ground..no one is looting Nike stores or shooting cops
“Trump has baselessly cast the judges and prosecutors in his trials as corrupt tools of the Biden administration...”
I mean, I’ve seen lots of civil war talk around here.
I highly doubt many people would get into a shooting war over a guy like Trump.
I know I wouldn’t risk my life for the guy. That’s silly.
Think Jan 6. This is the provoke a violent action so they can “Legally” stomp us into the dirt. I was angry when I heard the verdict and when hot its simple to say rash things but now is NOT the time for action. Don’t play their game. Best to be peaceful good little sheep—for now. The time will come for action—this is NOT the time. The Bonnie Blue Flag is still rolled up. What can we do? Demonstrate peacefully, write letters to editors, support conservatives running for office—if there isn’t one—run yourself! Get the word out that corruption has reached far into the ruling class. Best to get canned goods stocked up as well as water, learn first aid, get flashlights and battery operated radios. Read your Bible and know God + 1 = a majority.
I’m okay with a tit-for-tat.
Yes but the point is that nobody went after Obama like this
I know you are using exaggeration to make a point. It’s like a neighbor telling you to stay off his lawn and if you do it, he’ll pepper your ass with buckshot. It’s like Biden saying he will shoot off a couple shotgun rounds off his back deck to scare of any intruders. Such threats the media picks and chooses which to attack. I say, don’t give them any ammunition.
“...his supporters responded with dozens of violent online posts...”
Dozens of posts, 80 million supporters.
The Black Robed Regiment: Preachers who fought
On Sunday morning, Jan 21, 1776, pastor John Muhlenberg climbed into his pulpit in Woodstock, VA to preach. In his black clerical robe, the traditional dress of 18th century preachers, Muhlenberg preached from the third chapter of Ecclesiastes. He read how there is a time for all things. There’s a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to harvest. Then his voice began to rise as he said: “There’s a time of war, and a time of peace. There is a time for all things, a time to preach and a time to pray. But there is also a time to fight, and that time has now come!”
Then he did something his congregation did not expect. He removed his clerical robe revealing a colonial officer’s uniform beneath. Muhlenberg then stepped down from his pulpit and challenged the men of his congregation to join him in the fight for liberty.

It’s a question of leadership. If there is to be a counterrevolution, who will lead it? Or will we all go forth as leaderless lone wolves, picking our own objectives? I don’t claim to know.
What I do know from history is this: “When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another...” — AND when the cause is JUST and RIGHTEOUS, these leaders will appear, because GOD Himself raises them up.
President Donald Trump is such a leader.
I’m waiting and watching for other leaders to be raised up — I think some of them WILL rise up in the pulpit just like they did in our War of Indepencence.
Meanwhile, I’m keeping my powder dry.
FRegards
You wisdom is well put!
There are dozens of black conservative you tubers!
And stoop to the left’s level? Don’t do it.
