While much of the nation was transfixed on the riot at the US Capitol, supporters of Donald Trump demonstrated in cities across the country, and in Olympia, Washington, protesters pushed into the governor's mansion property....Many of the protesters in Olympia wore Trump clothing, but also told KIRO they were there to complain about the state's pandemic restrictions...

...In Oregon, several hundred people demonstrated in front of the Capitol in Salem...n Atlanta, dozens of people stood across from the Capitol, many holding flags. In Denver, hundreds of people gathered outside the Colorado Capitol.

Authorities say a pro-Trump protest inside the Kansas State Capitol in Topeka was peaceful....

*At some point, we will have to act like we are living in the mid 1700s.*

you dont want to go there. The Globalists might want to, tho, to reclaim their elite status again, as they did after the CW. But it wasn’t a fun time for Patriots.

” ...The departure of so many royal officials, rich merchants and landed gentry destroyed the hierarchical networks that had dominated most of the colonies.....One rich Patriot in Boston noted in 1779 that “fellows who would have cleaned my shoes five years ago, have amassed fortunes and are riding in chariots.” New men became rich merchants but they shared a spirit of republican equality that replaced the former elitism.[61]’

according to the Daily Mirror (UK), “ No Democrat had won a US Senate race in Georgia for 20 years.”

as today, both races are declared for Dems. And people are starting to get an idea where all those refugees Zero dumped on states in the middle of the night a few years ago, refugees fastracked into citizenship, ended up.

But y’all can’t win GA with wishy-washy fickle candidates like this one. “Be Best” and stop settling:

Sauce for the goose; sauce for the gander. If violence and terror are the way to influence the Supreme Court; etc., then maybe our side should get a piece of the action.

Reason is now regarded as a patriarchal, White prejudice. If the lib/commies choose to believe that, at least our side has some guns to avoid what happened to poor Ashli Babbit.

Wow. Hundreds of protestors constitutes riots. How about 3,000 reds and black extremists in Charlottesville, possibly a thousand or more burning down Ferguson, Minneapolis, Portland, Seattle, Kenosha, some of DC, Baltimore, Phila, NY, etc?

The DC protest was by a handful of idiots and possibly some anarchists/Antifa/Marxists infiltrators.

CNN via MSN. Communist News Network via Marxist Shit Media.

Those are the enemy right there.

speaking of antifa commies, here’s a tidbit I found regarding the murder of Ashli Babbit. One of the witnesses is a left-winger, who seemed to have been johnnyonthespot and observed a lot of activity:

“One of the witnesses, John Sullivan, recorded a video of the aftermath, showing police with guns drawn and Babbit...Sullivan is the founder of the left-wing activist group Insurgence USA. He said he was not at the Capitol as part of the protest but did not specify what exactly brought him there.”

Absolutely Not, and if you understood the world you are now living in, you would understand why that is not a good idea. I would suggest even in the world shortly after our founding early 1800’s as an example it would not have been a good idea.

Just maintaining the Constitution we have is hard enough without fighting those looking for an opportunity to foist another one without the protections of the one the Founders gave us. As I see it Article V and the people promoting it do not understand the enemy.

I have years of experience on both sides of the issue as an elected official dealing with those who think Article V is the answer to what troubles us. For example if Donald J. Trump can be run out of town on a rail as your lying eyes are watching take place. How long do you think the Constitution the founders provided us will last at the hands of those responsible for our President’s departure thirteen days from now.

No Constitutional Convention not now not ever. No amount of law making will be sufficient as a protection, when we stand as a truly lawless nation. The Constitution of the United States of America is barely followed now. God be praised for the limited following it has.

The Constitution is not the problem. It is we the people that is the real problem and the government some us are wanting and voting for in direct opposition to that of the Founders.

First order of new business, along with nixing the anti-constitutional state mandates and laws.

Easily said until the Governor and State Legislature contemplates running the State without the annual Federal infusion of dollars. My pee wee state for example only gets 1.4 or so billion from the Fed which is in the neighborhood of 30 percent of the entire budget. A ten percent cut would be seen as NEARLY impossible, much less 30 percent.

Our State is one of the very few with a Governor, though female, with balls of titanium, but do without the Federal infusion. Even she has her limits.

Today, if I were Trump, I would declassify EVERYTHING and release it.

They won’t prosecute Antifa instigators.

Photos, Reports Show ANTIFA Infiltrators Stormed the Capitol Building

Liberals instigated violence at Trump’s rallies in 2015 and 2016 to make conservatives look bad.

The same thing is happening here. And it was done to justify systematic oppression of conservatives by Biden-Harris AND scare Republicans into rolling over on the Electoral College vote that was going on.

I agree that there is no legal fix here. That's impossible so long as we are trying to share a polity with vocal supporters of infanticide. The simple truth is that we've become two separate peoples - as different as the agrarian Roman Republic with their household gods differed from the cosmopolitan Carthaginian Empire with their worship of Baal of the Furnace.

That's why the sole business of the Article V Convention would be to separate the blue areas from the red areas, prevent blue from immigrating into red areas, and otherwise dealing with the impact and implementation of our national divorce.

We must separate ourselves from them. This must be the starting point of all further deliberations.
