Even as prominent Republicans, including Mitch McConnell, began to grudgingly acknowledge that Joe Biden will be the next president, a noisy grassroots movement devoted to keeping Donald Trump in office seemed to be edging closer to advocating seizing power in what would amount to a coup d’état.
The day after a group run by a local Ohio tea party leader took out a full-page ad in the Washington Times calling on Trump to declare martial law and have the military oversee a redo of the presidential election using only paper ballots — a call echoed in a tweet by Gen. Michael Flynn — a raucous “Stop the Steal” rally in suburban Atlanta urged Trump supporters to descend on the statehouse on Thursday and demand the resignations of Georgia’s governor and secretary of state. In a press release announcing the ad published Tuesday by We the People Convention, the group’s president, Tom Zawistowski, said, “We wanted to express our concerns to the President, to the legislators, courts and Congress that We the People will NOT cede our exclusive Constitutional right to elect our Representatives to judges, lawyers, courts, Governors, Secretary’s of State, Congress, corrupt election officials and local politicians, the corrupt media — or Leftist threats of violence!”
“I will see you tomorrow at the state Capitol,” attorney and Trump ally L. Lin Wood told the crowd who had gathered to hear him and former Trump campaign lawyer Sidney Powell speak in Alpharetta, Ga., on Wednesday. “Stay mad as hell! We’re not going to take it anymore!”

We will NEVER....EVER...have a CLEAN ELECTION IF this isn’t fixed NOW!!
This movie title just because...
LIVE FREE OR DIE HARD
makes a lot of sense in these perilous times we are living in or going to be!
That just isn’t going to happen. Pipe dreams.
It will be interesting to see what happens...to say the least. But I do wish Flynn the best - at the VERY LEAST we should NEVER allow this level of fraud in our elections.
Many of the coup plotters are in their 70’s?...some are in their 80’s?
Then again they have been subverting America for at least 50/60 years...when most of them were in their 20’s.
And now they are protecting their cash cow...cushy “jobs”
This is a terrible idea that I would oppose even it had a chance of succeeding. It has no chance and would disgrace anyone who supported it.
Martial law won’t do. There needs to be an organic expression of the will of the people. And if it stacks up as 50-50, then secession.
Ah no! A coup d'etat is what has been going on for the past four years.
And that is why you fail.
“...closer to advocating seizing power in what would amount to a coup d’état.”
Saul Alinsky tactic. Joe Biden election theft is the coup d’etat.
As a (pre-BLM) Met fan, I felt so bad for Buckner. My already low opinion of New Englanders got even lower after seeing how they trashed the guy.
The democrats are willing to openly steal and election, destroy the constitution and sell out nation to chicoms.
I don’t see the recommendation as an extreme measure considering this.
Fake news. Fake headline. Fake media. Suspend the constitution?
If these idiots only knew that the Constitution provides the president the ability to declare martial law.
Declaring martial law is constitutional. A fraudulent election is not.
They sure love projection, don’t they.
