Last Friday, on a quiet residential street at 6 in the morning, the neighborhood exploded in light, noise and terror. Seventeen SUVs and two armored vehicles arrived in front of one house. Each vehicle had sirens blaring and lights flashing. The house, which abutted a canal, was soon surrounded by 29 government agents, each wearing military garb, each carrying a handgun and most carrying high-powered automatic rifles.
In the canal were two amphibious watercrafts, out of which more heavily armed government agents came. Circling above all this was a helicopter equipped with long-range precision weaponry and high-powered spotlights.
Four agents approached the front door to the house. Two held a battering ram, and two pointed their rifles at the door. One of the agents shouted and banged on the front door until the terrified owner of the house emerged, barefoot and wearing shorts and a T-shirt. He was greeted in the dark at his open front door by two rifle barrels aimed at his head.

Yeah not likely but as likely as “Trust the Plan”!
That was a strange response. “To rig the game with the proles”? What does that even mean? I’ll just leave you to your weirdness.
I am thinking that Trump is keeping his powder dry in order to prevail in the 2020 election and if we give him the support he need to stay in office he will pull the pin on all this crap and bring down holy hell on all thee deep state players.
My hope is that the next 18 months will be spent finding loyal Americans who will take part in the ultimate cleansing of our government.
(OK, call me a dreamer).
Thanks for showing up on Free Republic to “school” me, n00bie.
I’m sure there were many monitoring the situation back at HQ and virtually all over the place. But we are discussing the on-site behavior. It was massive over kill, too close to literally so.
They did the same thing to Manafort and his wife. When in reality all they had to do was call Stone’s attorney and tell him when and where to surrender his client.
"Yes, the FBI raid was an embarrassment. Never should have happened."
Trump doesn’t have to fire anyone to be effective. He controls national security access within the Executive Branch. All he had to do was suspend Mueller’s clearance until Mueller prosecutes the person in his organization that leaked the raid to CNN.
I believe the judge released Roger Stone on his own recognizance after the massive show of force raid typically reserved for only the most violent felons.
I think a hand delivered summons would have sufficed.
“Yeah... I wonder if Lon Horiuchi was hiding in the bushes....”
Very well could have as all charges against him for the murder of Vicky Weaver were dropped.
They ought to make a Netflix movie outta this.
All the action. All the drama. All the weapons and firepower. All to capture an elderly couple barefoot and in their pajamas.
We truly live in a Kristallnacht society.
Wonder how many they will send to arrest Don Jr.

Damn Straight. And will Donald, Sr. just sit on his ass as he has done again and again in the past?
Their side loves to post names and addresses of those they dislike. And there ARE tax-paid employees. Just sayin...
Honestly, the AG should have already requested a meeting with Wray. This was an abuse of power and LEO.
I’m surprised they didn’t follow the FBI stratagem used to smoke out the Branch Davidian Bible Study folks from the Mt. Carmel Church near Waco & send in tanks to ram the Stone’s home and inject incendiary gases.
If Roger had built a beautiful border wall around his property, that’s what they would have done...for sure.
No word on how many US Navy carrier battle groups were standing offshore...
So I guess this abomination of an FBI army sent to arrest an old man and his crippled wife is par for the course in an effing police state.
In a decent country the press would be all over this - demanding answers about why this happened and why CNN was invited. But in a police state? Not much is said - and besides, the boys in the Press are on the side of the goons.
you are right Phil,
Lot of like minded socialists.
Welcome to the USSA, comrade.
Heya! Hope all is well!
