WE ARE ON OUR OWN

Well, this is it, isn’t it? The storming of the Capitol is an event which will mark a watershed in our history. Make no mistake. This is the end of “Trumpism” and the Republican Party. Pence, needless to say, is political history. And you had better believe that the Democrats, and especially the Establishment Republicans, know it. Let us leave aside the fact that many of those storming the Capitol acted out of impulse and rage.

The Establishment will now attempt to label the core population of America as “terrorists” and criminals. Good enough. They will get what they have been asking for. The mask has fallen. Ordinary Americans are waking up to the fact that “they been had” and things will only get uglier. The fools in Congress will react with fury and that will only turn up the heat. We are now two countries and only one can win in the end.

In 1905 a crowd of peaceful protesters gathered outside the Winter Palace in St. Petersburg to beg “The Little Father” for bread. What they got was a hurricane of 7.62X54R ball ammo right in their faces. After that, the die was cast for Russia. Yes, things “calmed down” after a while but the fragile bond between the people and their government had been broken forever. It was called “Bloody Sunday”. We will have many bloody Sundays before the pot finally boils over.

Tomorrow we will be overwhelmed by breathless stories from the MSM about the “mob” and how Trump incited them, rather than the corrupt election machinery that delivered the presidency to a human mummy and his Marxist sidekick. The Congressmen hiding under their desks will regain their “courage” and emerge to damn the very people who put most of them in office. Biden will spout gibberish, Pelosi will shriek, Schumer will demand our guns, Romney will be in high dudgeon. Nobody will give a shit what they say.

When the shock wears off a cold, sullen anger will sweep the best part of our people. They tried to do the right thing filing useless lawsuits, calling on “their” representatives to do something to keep our country from being stolen, swearing affidavits. They may as well have pissed in the wind. After all, their “leaders” are pissing on them.

Do not underestimate the international ramifications of this event. Our enemies and rivals are chuckling now. In the morning they will be drawing up their plans. China may seize Hong Kong once and for all, and declare most of the South China Sea a no-go zone for foreign ships. Iran may well make its move against the Saudi monarchy. The Russians, masters at chess, will bide their time, for a little while.

Ordinary Americans will see the Don Lemon’s and Jake Tapper’s and Anderson Cooper’s with foam spewing from their mouths and will understand – finally – what is at stake, who is behind this, and what their ultimate objectives are.

The people, our people, will realize at last the truth. We are on our own.

It’s actually 1861, not 1865.
Over 700,000 fellow Americans murdered by our own government during those short years would agree….
The government that governs least, is the government that governs best.
But that 700,000 portend a much greater loss if this time around if we have another war of Northern Aggression.

Absolutely right, sir… At Appomattox General Lee acted like a gentleman and forbade guerrilla warfare in the South. If protracted guerrilla warfare had Been waged in the South, the ludicrously named “Reconstruction” would never have throttled Southern interests until after WWII. And Thirty or so thousand Yankee carpetbaggers would not have been able to steal thousands of Southern properties by means of illegal and confiscatory “taxation.”

That’s a wise policy, one well worth adopting. Local communities already exist, of course, so if one is not already a “member” (locally born or long-time resident) initial outreach should be selective. It’s also a plus to have an out-of-area network, the wider-spread the better, but the place where one hangs his hat is the base that must be covered.

If they do too much of this, the dollar becomes worthless due to inflation (think Zimbabwe or Venezuela), and the greenback stops being the default world currency. Your lenders, creditors, stop accepting them in payment of debt and either require a different currency (Euros, Riyals?) or gold, that is your economy fucked right there; loans get called in, you cannot pay, USA fire sale and bankruptcy.

Posted the other day, becoming more relevant:

“I had my business (bar/restaurant) destroyed by dictate in the People’s Repugnant of New Jersey with arbitrary shut down orders while watching Fortune 500 companies back up the Brinks truck. Sued the government in September, still waiting for my court date for expedited relief from restrictions 4 months later. The equitably of this situation is so out of kilter it’s sickening.

I have been asking this question since March 16th, “if we’re all in it together, why is everyone else collecting their paycheck?” “Why when I call a government agency, no one answers, but I haven’t realized not a red cent of reduction in taxes?” WTF?

I have never had any aspirations for politics, but I cooked up a single issue to run on about 10 years ago. It’s called, “Good for the Goose, Good for the Gander” bill. It would codify our link with our betters. We’re shut down for “safety”, all government shuts down same amount of time, no paychecks. You pass healthcare, you get same plan. Representatives get paid salary equal to median wage of district. Congressional office budget per member of $150k for administration, learn to economize boys. No more insider trading, no more lobbying, now viewed and prosecuted as bribery. So on so forth.

They don’t fear us, nothing will change until they have the most basic form of respect, fear.”
First go around with the bull called the American people.

No, No, No! The Republic is not at fault. It is the people who claim to be working for the Republic when in reality they are only interested in their positions, power, and privilege.

Remember the oath of public office, generally stated since it differs for different offices:

“I swear (or affirm) to support and defend the Constitution and laws of the U.S.” The oath is to support the Constitution, not the government.

The Constitution is the statement of PRINCIPALS and RESTRICTIONS on government. The Constitution is worth saving; the government is not.

Human nature trumps all. Thrasymachus was right. And Republics are notoriously vulnerable to despotism, which Machiavelli pointed out much better than I ever could.

The Constitution was a grand bargain with the Anglophiles. Jefferson was disgusted with it. No, it needs a major overhaul. Screw rebuilding the engine block alone…the whole chassis is rusted out. If it weren’t, it wouldn’t have allowed us to get to where we are today.

I can’t speak to <10,000, but in my community, the Sheriff, and most of the local citizens, are fully responsible individuals, i.e. not lacking in personal responsibility. We continually elect Sheriffs that are Patriotic Americans. The City Council, however…is constantly striving to be more like Boulder, Co. God help us. Most likely the University here. Once again…God help us. If there was ever a bad influence in a community, it would be an "institute of HIGHER learning". It's all the rest of us can do to counter the socialist/communist influence of those pathetic hacks. If it was only the university and their ilk, it would be doable. But when they attack your children in preschool, kindergarten, primary and secondary school, you've lost the battle. Interestingly, though, there are an amazing number of these kids that aren't totally indoctrinated yet, and show promise of having an un-tainted mind. So, basically, there's hope, at least here.

Let the GOP implode, they are useless. Maybe they’ll learn a lesson or two about who they are supposed to be serving if they get their asses handed to them for the next few elections if no one shows up for them (although at this point, the voting machines will probably just vote in our name anyway).

The day everything ended.

Whether it was a few Antifa stand ins, or an overly enraged MAGA supporter, this storming of the Capitol will be the mark on every patriot that will never wash out. Too bad, because the action is exactly what is needed to drain the swamp, but most Americans today could never stomach such a thing.

Lets start with Trump, who fired up his audience in the morning with a swearing that he will never back down (but only put out already known facts about the fraud that have already been dismissed by the media), then turned his troops loose on the ellipse; of a million or so people; it was only a matter of time before one or a few decided to “take back the capitol.”

Only problem was, no one knew what to do with it, once they were inside. Most just moved about taking selfies and looking like tourists, while a few antifa types were looting and causing whatever mayhem they could accomplish in whatever time that was afforded them.

Big problem, taking the capitol and not knowing what to do once inside. So, after a few pics, everyone left to go home, Not Sure what would happen next. Well, what happened next is every one henceforth who wears a MAGA hat in public will suffer ridicule and mothers will hide their children from the evil, murderous sicko that probably was the very one who donned the buffalo hat and terrorized all of our poor representatives, who were hiding under their chairs; poor souls.

And so all the Trump supporters, who with good hearts, traveled across the nation to voice their opposition to a fraudulently certified president, now will have to live under the shame of shooting their wad and coming up short of accomplishing anything; except maybe getting their photos published as wanted by the FBI on the Post Office walls across the nation.

The (they think they are) near-almighty U.S. elected government need to know that The People have a limit to their patience. That was displayed today in spades.

I don’t know if you saw the Angry Teacher Rages at the Dying of the Light essay I posted from fellow Oklahoma patriot and friend Jenni White, who has been sending out messages about the protest yesterday. Am just horrified at what happened yesterday, but evenmoreso at what else slouches our way.

How long?
The Katyń massacre, also the Katyń Forest massacre (Polish: zbrodnia katyńska, ‘Katyń crime’), was a mass execution of Polish citizens ordered by Soviet authorities on March 5, 1940.[1] The estimated number of victims is about 22,000, with the most commonly cited number of 21,768. The victims were murdered in the Katyn forest, the Kalinin (Tver) and Kharkiv prisons and elsewhere.[3] About 8,000 were officers taken prisoner during the 1939 invasion of Poland, the rest being Poles arrested for allegedly being “intelligence agents, gendarmes, spies, saboteurs, landowners, factory owners, lawyers, priests, and officials.” (my italics) In other words? The ordinary citizenry… like you and me.

A century of socialism softened the country up enough for a rather swift corporate takeover (banks, tech, telecoms, media) and it is revealed that fascism (a.k.a. corporatism) is just a more direct avenue to totalitarian technocratic oligarchy.

Complete capitulation by the repubs on the floor of the Senate this evening. Two nights ago, I watched Trump campaigning for Kelly Loeffler in Georgia. She went up on stage and,in support of Trump, she exclaimed how she would NOT support the certification of electors for her state. Then, in the wake of the events of today, Loeffler rescinded her support for the president on the senate floor this evening.

If Trump was considered repugnant by some in the GOP before, he is now completely isolated.

Stay strong America. Even in Australia as the MSM was doing its usual Trump bashing everyday people were calling in to support the MAGA movement. The mask is well and truly off in this masquerade ball and people are now seeing just how ugly the deep state really is. My thoughts and prayers are with all American Patriots right now

I would anticipate today’s events would provide the impetuous to roll out “Gun Violence and Community Safety Bills,” HR5717 and S3254, updated of course. Luckily, the good Sheriff Smith and his cohorts in Colorado will not abide, as will a majority of other sheriffs. Unfortunately, there are plenty of dolts who will.

Jenni White (Angry Teacher) was there… she sent out this message last night:

“I am just fine. I attended the rally today with hundreds of thousands of families, children, old people, veterans and others. I stood in the freezing cold, shoulder-to- shoulder with others to the point I simply couldn’t move there were SO many people.
We watched the rally and never heard President Trump – or anyone else – say anything to the crowd that would incite violence. Nothing. Then, as the crowd moved on to Pennsylvania Avenue to walk to the capitol, our group went to our hotel to get something to eat and use the facilities. It was while we were in the hotel that we heard of what had happened at the capitol via the major media.
Let me be clear, I do not condone the violence at the capitol. But let me be loud and clear on this point – there were a few people who made unauthorized entry into the capitol and perpetrated mayhem while HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of people were PEACEFULLY marching outside.
I did see the DC police throw flash-bangs and spray people with tear gas who were simply standing on the lawn. This was NOT a violent March! No fires were set, no buildings were broken into, no cars were overturned, no graffiti was sprayed – NOTHING WAS DONE BY THE VAST MAJORITY OF PEOPLE IN ATTENDANCE.
During the time we watched CNN and CNBC we watched them literally make up things that we saw happening before our very eyes.
Now, we’re sitting in a hotel surrounded by DC police in riot gear who are arresting people for simply going out of the doors to smoke a cigarette, because we’re one of the hotels where many Trump supporters are staying. We can’t get food, we can’t get water – we can’t get to our car? As far as we know from friends in other hotels, they’re all surrounded the same way. We are – in effect – hostages in our hotels – because we’re supporters of the president of the United States.
We are not guilty of anything but wanting free and fair elections and wanting our Republic to stay just that. We’ve done nothing wrong – NOTHING – but now even our CONGRESS is determining that a few speak for the many and they’d rather loose our Republic than to stand for the many. How in the world can they do such a thing?
We came here to enact positive change – not incite violence – but today, that doesn’t matter. They’ve now determined that we are just what they want us to be – DEPLORABLES. They’ve now put us where they want us so we can be further marginalized and told we’re guilty of things we simply haven’t done. I guess the one thing we did in coming here was to witness the beginning of the end of our Republic. How sad is that?…Jenni

Very sad, Jenni. Very.

It’s how color revolutions work. The dems purposely overplayed their hand with the obvious, over-the-top election fraud knowing they would be found out. Create outrage with a contested election. All pre-planned for years.

We’re in it now. This isn’t play-time.

I assume that a good number of red-blooded, patriotic Americans have read or will read this article, so as a sympathetic Australian I felt compelled to comment on this piece:

Do not underestimate the international ramifications of this event. Our enemies and rivals are chuckling now.

Seriously, dude, we have empathy for the plight of the common folk in the USA being trodden into the gutter by the totally corrupt Establishment, but you might consider stepping outside the US Foreign Policy echo chamber occasionally to gain a little context.

Your international “enemies and rivals” are, in the main, victims of the American Imperial drive for global domination. They are far more likely to be holding their breath in anticipation of the USA lashing out with yet another military adventure overseas to distract from the present domestic turmoil, than to be chuckling to themselves or anyone else.

And this:

In the morning they will be drawing up their plans. China may seize Hong Kong once and for all, and declare most of the South China Sea a no-go zone for foreign ships.

You do understand that Hong Kong is already a part of China – no “seizing” necessary? Is the USA poised to “seize” Puerto Rico?

As for the South China Sea, (where the USA regularly conducts “freedom of navigation” exercises “in accordance with the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea” even though the USA itself refuses to ratify that convention because the USA itself refuses to be held accountable to it), why in the world would China – by far the world’s largest trading nation – shoot itself in both feet by blocking the passage of foreign ships through its most critical maritime trade corridor??? Even the simplest of minds should be able to see that it’s very much in China’s interests to keep the maritime corridors free, open and secure. What you suggest hasn’t happened, and it’s not going to happen. The recent conclusion of the RCEP free trade agreement between China, Japan, South Korea, Australia, New Zealand and the 10 ASEAN nations reinforces this view.

If anyone is going to try to blockade the sea lanes, what does past history show, all around the world with its Empire of Military bases dotted all over the globe? Who is rattling sabres in the South China Sea “in accordance with the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea”, 10,000 miles from their home shores? No wonder China has taken steps to secure their existentially critical trading corridors. Get some perspective, man, and stop swallowing the Imperial propaganda.

And this:

Iran may well make its move against the Saudi monarchy.

What move would that be exactly, and more to the point, why would anyone care, given that Saudi Arabia is pretty much the most ruthless and oppressive totalitarian regime on the planet? Not that Iran has any history at all of unprovoked aggression against its neighbors. To a passer-by, one might be puzzled at America’s permanent hard-on for a fight with Iran, until the pattern of Imperial global aggression and subjugation is brought into focus.

And lastly, this:

The Russians, masters at chess, will bide their time, for a little while.

As a common American, you should probably be thankful that the Russian government has been as incredibly patient as it has with the incessant provocations from Imperial America, endless economic sanctions aimed at crushing the remarkably resilient Russian economy, and expanding the global American Empire of military bases right up to Russia’s borders to threaten the Russian heartland. You should be thankful that they are masters at chess.

For crying out loud, get a reality check! The rest of the world is not your enemy. What enemies you do have, are enemies because you picked a fight with them and forced them to defend themselves. If the sentiments in this article reflect the world view harbored by common Americans, then the Establishment has you by the short and curlies and has already won any fight you try to bring to them. They control the narrative – period.

If even a fraction of the the wealth that has been siphoned off by the American Imperial war machine in it’s quest for new enemies and global domination, had been directed instead toward infrastructure, industry, agriculture, homes, schools, hospitals etc etc, then Americans would still be enjoying the prosperity that their parents and grandparents once did.

Forget about your foreign “enemies and rivals”. For the most part, they won’t give a shit, if you’ll just go away and leave them alone. Do yourself a favour and sort out the real enemy at home.

The US Capital was NOT “stormed”, it was used as a theatrical set-piece in a scripted… drama? Parody? Satire? Comedy? Tragedy? Not quite sure which. The US Capital does not matter. Nothing of any real importance goes on there. We could burn it to the ground and not miss a beat. They could burn it to the ground, and not have to spend time pretending it does matter, what with the trouble of sham “elections” and phony political parties and politicians. That shit is expensive! And it isn’t needed any more, so pretty soon it will go away.

I wonder what the reaction of the po po would have been if the “protestors” had gone after the Eccles Building? I have been there many times, and I don’t think the reception would have been so inviting. We will know that something serious might be afoot when we see (or do) something with people and places that still matter. The White House and Capital do not matter.

Great article and I agree. Tell ya what I’m gonna do in Texas. In less than 2 years, I’m gonna send money to ANYONE running against Beth Van Dyne, Crenshaw and others who showed their COWARDICE. And if they don’t get elected, then I’m gonna send money to the liberal pajama to PROVE MY POINT! Thankfully my House rep and one Senator showed their patriotism by objecting! I’ll not put up with a bunch of cowardly elitist globalist RINO scum from Texas not upholding the Constitution.

In the meantime, I’m changing to an Independent rather than a Republican. I will no longer hold my nose and vote for ’em, I’ve had it! We did everything lawfully we were supposed to do. Our R state legislatures, R Governors, R Sec of States, and R Senate members and R House Reps, and our R Supreme Court did nothing….

But we will. I WILL NOT COMPLY!
