America, the Deep State is coming after our president: What are we going to do about it?
The National Sentinel ^ | 12/10/18 | USA Features

Posted on 12/10/2018 6:29:43 AM PST by SleeperCatcher

Crisis: Over the weekend the cable news shows were filled with politicians Left and Right pontificating about what special counsel Robert Mueller’s latest filings on Friday regarding President Donald Trump’s former personal lawyer Michael Cohen really mean.

The pontificating went into hyperdrive following the publication of a column by former national security prosecutor Andrew McCarthy, in which he predicted that the president is about to be indicted by the Southern District of New York for “campaign finance violations.”

Impeachment! the Democrats screamed. Impeachment! As if they weren’t already considering it, without cause or reason.

McCarthy wrote:

The major takeaway from the 40-page sentencing memorandum filed by federal prosecutors Friday for Michael Cohen, President Trump’s former personal attorney, is this: The president is very likely to be indicted on a charge of violating federal campaign finance laws.

Specifically, we’re to believe that the payment of “hush money” to a couple of women whom POTUS has denied having a sexual relationship is the same as if he had written a check — illegally — to a campaign in excess of the $2,700 personal limit.

That’s a stretch of the most extreme kind, but far be it from us to dispute McCarthy’s legal analysis, which is substantial, or his opinion regarding an impending indictment, which is believable when you consider that the Mueller probe has always been about one thing, and that is ‘getting Donald Trump.’

In case you haven’t noticed babe, we haven’t been functioning in a constational manner for a looooong time.

And the opposition has trashed the constitution.

Stop being Alinsky-ed

1. “Power is not only what you have but what the enemy
thinks you have.”

2. “Never go outside the experience of your people.”

3. “Wherever possible go outside of the experience of the
enemy.”

4. “Make the enemy live up to their own book of rules.”

5. “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.”

6. “A good tactic is one that your people enjoy.”

7. “A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag.”

8. “Keep the pressure on, with different tactics and
actions, and utilize all events of the period for your purpose.”

9. “The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing
itself.”

10. “The major premise for tactics is the development of
operations that will maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition.”

11. “If you push a negative hard and deep enough it will
break through into its counterside.”

12. “The price of a successful attack is a constructive
alternative.”

13. “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.”

The remaining 11 rules Alinsky describes are concerned with “the ethics of means and ends”:

1. “One’s concern with the ethics of means and ends varies inversely with one’s personal interest in the issue … Accompanying this rule is the parallel one that one’s concern with the ethics of means and ends varies inversely with one’s distance from the scene of conflict.”

2. “The judgment of the ethics of means is dependent upon the political position of those sitting in judgment.”

3. “In war the end justifies almost any means.”

4. “Judgment must be made in the context of the times in which the action occurred and not from any other chronological vantage point.”

5. “Concern with ethics increases with the number of means available and vice versa.”

6. “The less important the end to be desired, the more one can afford to engage in ethical evaluations of means.”

7. “Generally success or failure is a mighty determinant of ethics.”

8. “The morality of a means depends upon whether the means is being employed at a time of imminent defeat or imminent victory.”

9. “Any effective means is automatically judged by the opposition as being unethical.”

10. “You do what you can with what you have and clothe it with moral garments.”

11. “Goals must be phrased in general terms like ‘Liberty, Equality, Fraternity,’ ‘Of the Common Welfare,’ ‘Pursuit of Happiness,’ or ‘Bread and Peace.’”

. I’m one of the Deplorables who is not amused by that. Without Sessions’ support, the campaign would’ve gone nowhere. If one expects loyalty, it should be reciprocal.
........................................................
Baloney! It is Sessions who betrayed Trump, not the other way around. Trump was overly generous toward Sessions in his patience waiting for sessions to come around. As for Sessions’ support being the cause of Trump’s success, you are severely overrating Sessions’ effect. This deplorable made up her mind the second Trump declared as candidate. Sessions meant nothing to me and still doesn’t.
Trump selected Sessions for a great office as a Thank You for his support and and he stabbed Trump in the back by recusing himself because he was a weakling in face of the Democrats Witch Hunt. Trump needed Sessions’ support to curtail the hatchet job but got nothing. The traitor is Sessions, not Trump.

You seem to forget that the American Revolution didn’t happen overnight. Years of attempts to bring George III to recognize the Colonists as rightful citizens who should have a say in their governance yielded nothing. The final straw was the attempted crushing blow of the English military occupying our homes and stripping us of our defenses. Only after extreme provocation did we rise up. We are being extremely provoked now and if the Dems and their Globalist allies try to destroy our president by criminal means, it will be the last straw. I do NOT consider the talk on these threads as “Bravado.” I consider them as FAIR WARNING to the Dems and their cohorts including some on these threads that I consider pansies,

France is reclaiming its sovereignty. The people are fed up. Yes, many other countries are joining in the revolt AGAINST the European union’s confiscation of their individual rights and liberties. hopefully the protests will continue to spread resulting in the downfall of the Globalists. The Globalists have been building their strength for a long time, but the cork has finally popped from the bottle. Brexit, Trump’s withdrawal from the Iran and Paris agreements, and now protests in France joined by others in Europe have well and truly set the course. Watch closely what happens to the UN agenda on Immigration and you will see more and more breakaways. The One World Order is desperate. The crack in the dike has appeared and they have nobody to stem the flood that is coming.

I think they ARE afraid of our guns. That is why they are trying to confiscate them by hook or crook.

That is the understatement of the year.

The average age of the signers of the Declaration of Independence was around 44, with many of them 35 or under.

FR is a place where retirement age or above predominate.
...................................................
Problem with your theory is that in n the time of the signers people were ADULTS at a much earlier age and secondly did not reach the advanced age of people today as a general rule. Children today are weaklings compared to children of my parent’s time.

Yes the new world order is desperate so it’s likely to get worse before it gets better.

Agreed. But the main thing is that we give them a taste of blood in their mouths that they will not forget.
