All Ron Desantis has to do is have a grand jury formed up of true patriots and have them indict Merrick Garland.

Who cares if it sticks . . . serve the damned thing and let the media ride it

Possibly obtain some ‘Dont Tread On Me’ stickers and place them in appropriate places? Betsy Ross flag stickers too? So, if a US Navy ship is flying the Navy Jack emblazoned with “DON’T TREAD ON ME” (like one I have and fly on occasion), are they gonna be classified as “MVEs”?

This is the sort of thing we need. Ways to act prudently, not sitting around imagining that posting comments online is going to change anything by itself, or acting rashly and counter-productively.

Let's think of other fruitful ideas people can act on. Like asking friends or relatives who work for federal government to resign or face shame. Of course most won't, but the point is to apply pressure.

Getting involved more and more politically. Even at the dog-catcher level, the point is to fence out the madness by getting better people involved.

Educate people. Have you ever read the Constitution? You should, and be familiar with it. Encourage others to do likewise. Remind ourselves and others of the lost principles of the Constitution and the beauty of American government as reflected in it and writings like the Federalist Papers. We've got to do a lot more educating rather than just carping about the ignorance of youth or others.

What else?

True the Left wants to goad us into Civil War II. Proof is the bullying. The Left can stop bullying——leave President Trump alone and forget Jan.6. If the Left is so great then why do they have to resort to that? But they aren’t giving that up.

A truly good man, Donald Trump was confronted with cheering convention crowd who started chanting “Lock Her Up. Lock Her Up” at at reference to Hillary.
Trump smiled, put up hands with his palms forward and said, “No, No, let’s just go out and win this election.”

Trump is just an avatar for US.

some preliminary considerations to keep in mind. First and foremost, the powers-that-be WANT a limited form of civil war. They ... want violence and acts of domestic terrorism to take place to justify whatever crackdown they impose against us.

That is the scary part. How many Ray Epps-type actors does the FBI have at their disposal to use to stir up a war?

>> without sparking a civil war

Arguably, there’s a “cold” civil war already underway.

Avoid DC - protest and operate locally.

Work on street art, satire, humor and public denigration. The Left has been good at this for many decades.

1) We need more RALLIES where they will get coverage

2) Make GOP lawmakers and candidates acknowledge this is THE issue

3) Learn and share the FACTS about the raid to help ā€œnormiesā€ understand

4) Join or form patriot groups that want peace AND justice


Becoming a poll watcher might do more good than all four of those mostly useless suggestions that will change nothing (0).

Regarding "more rallies with coverage":

The Marxists have an army of unemployed goons (Antifa) ready at a moments notice, to counter conservative rallies WITH VIOLENCE AND THE PROTECTION OF THE COPS.

Only Trump rallies have been large enough to overwhelm their enthusiasm.

people like Mitch McConnell pretended to go after Obamacare all the way until he had a president who would actually sign a repeal. Then, we learned it was all talk.

The same can be said of about 90% of the republican'ts.

“First and foremost, the powers-that-be WANT a limited form of civil war.”

Of course they do so they can call on the woke military to restore order or if that doesn’t work for them, ask the UN to send in troops to do that.

Well if there is going to be some event(s) in the near future, the main thing we can do is be able to survive it. Don’t be a refugee because you’re hungry. Don’t become homeless. If you’re going to participate in some event that might be weeks long, make sure whoever is left at home isn’t going to go hungry or become homeless.

Stock up on a three month supply of everything including money to pay the bills, preferably cash in case the web goes down because if the web goes down, plastic money goes down & banks close because they can’t operate without the web these days. Neither can most stores. Keep your gas tanks full and have some full jugs too.

That’s a really good piece. I take issue with what the author admits is dicey territory: joining groups. Groups generally have lists. You don’t want to be on one of those lists. It would be nearly impossible for an IRL group (that is not your local church) to avoid ending up as a fed honeypot. Apart from the joining groups thing, this is all pretty sound.

The third consideration is that Donald Trump is very likely to be indicted. They seem willing to do anything, including manufacturing charges and arresting the rightful president, just to make sure they take us over our breaking point. If you think things are bad now, imagine if Trump is frog-marched.

Say what? THIS, the 'third way' way to 'fight deep state without sparking a Civil War' is what this author thinks is relevant? It seems to me it's just pandering, milquetoast coward bullshit and not even a 'way to fight back?'

I am tired of all these so-called 'conservative' do-gooders and concern freaks telling me, us what to think, do and consider.

Enough!

One thing occurred to me while reading it:
was the FBI raid undertaken to provoke us to take action?
In other words, were they really after Trump or us. Consider: any public action we were to undertake would invite antifa, who would create mayhem, which they would label “terrorism” and suppress viciously.

I suspect that was the intention behind the Jan 6 riot; same playbook as Hitler’s Reichstag fire.

One other thought: “normies” are likely to care more about the economy than about Trump. Although I agree it’s important to know the facts about the home invasion, people aren’t likely to identify with people who live in mansions. Moral arguments will not move people subject to envy and the nebulous animosity implanted in them over the last 6 years. They can feel inflation however, as well as taxes and fuel prices. Anything would be better than the future they currently face.

In short, have arguments, facts and citations ready for both topics.

And above all, stay cool and don’t take the bait.

It's not just 'the powers that be'... there's some bad actors behind the scenes... DON'T GIVE LIBERAL THUGS WHAT THEY WANT...

Anyone triggered needs to be investigated for ties to the FBI and/or Southern Poverty Law Center or Commie Front organizations. If anyone starts talking violence ask them if they'd like to sit in a DC Jail for a few years... 'cause ALL the 'powers that be' want to take down 77 million conservative American voters... painted with a broad brush.

“This represents an existential threat to America. Any Republican who isnā€™t screaming about the raid or the corrupt Department of Justice is compromised or complicit. THIS is the issue they need to be railing against right now.”

__________________________________________

That goes for all the weak-kneed voters who just can’t stand all the drama - they’re either compromised or complicit, too.
