I believe this is turning into what Trump wanted to occur during the George Floyd protests.
The instigators breaking shit were trying to start a riot to give him pretext to federalize the National Guard.
Only, nobody bought into it.
Instead, this time, he’s taking smaller protests and escalating them by using military intimidation, which, as the regime hoped, infuriated large swaths of Americans. Once these continue to grow, instigators will become present. It takes one, hidden somewhere, to shoot an agent or guardsman, and shit flys off the walls.
Unfortunately, the path forward is bleak. Protests must continue. And they must grow. People dying is out of the question at this point.
The regime is betting that a few instances of massacres will give him enough power to quell 358,000,000 Americans into accepting a totalitarian regime. Every dictator in modern history has done this in one way, shape, or form.
I keep saying this but it falls on deaf ears. A resistance must not resist in a theater of the Regime’s choosing. It won’t work.
Blue states have a powerful weapon at their disposal. They need not instruct citizens to withold federal taxes. They need to instruct employers and self employed to cease all federal witholding. If they fail to do so, cut off the resources an employer needs. When tax season comes around, how many Americans will willingly pay the 12-35% of their income they now owe? None. The federal government now has lost significant portions of revenue. Americans won’t work without pay. Not for long.
The time for the most powerful form of warfare has arrived. Economic warfare.
A little bit ago it flew under the radar that he put into place that he could raise a militia if there was a revolution. Can’t remember the act, not an American citizen.
But around then it was said that he would start this and it could happen around April.
The thing is that the act has some funky wording and the militia need not be the national guard, and he can mobilize MAGA to act as the militia.
So that’s probably the next step.
Or the Proud Boys. They’re suing the government for prosecution of Jan 6th, $100m I think. Paid triple+ as a “settlement” with an agreement to deploy and do taco’s dirty work. There’s your militia.
it’s showing up everywhere
People say it’s hard to protest because America is so spread out.
It also means that when the Fed tries to crack down on protests, there’s too much ground for them to be everywhere at once.
They can’t handle one city, if they try and deploy all over it’ll be an even bigger cluster fuck, and make the military even more fed up with trump.
If the Feds are willing to illegally federalize National Guard troops, and the National Guard in any given state is willing to obey those orders, it tips the scales significantly. States need to start taking measures to ensure their National Guard is truly under their control. These are the “well regulated militias” referenced in the second amendment, and if they are subject to the whims of a federal tyrant, then the second amendment is moot.
The problem is Democrats are cowards. Newsom has so many options he’s not even trying to use. For example, he could give his own contradicting orders to the California National Guard troops. After all, those would be the only legal orders given to the Guard. Trump is flagrantly violating the law here. If that didn’t work, he could announce that he’s putting any Guard troop deployed by Trump on immediate leave. They’re now on vacation and can walk off base at will. If that doesn’t work, he could defund the troops involved. You’re not getting paid for your time following illegal orders.
Instead, Democrats are cowards, so they make tired cringe jokes about Tacos.
In Austin, police were forced to use pepper spray and tear gas…
i’m sorry, who is forcing the police to do this? it seems like they are willingly doing this, not being forced.
They wanted to play with their military grade toys, and live targets got them salivating like the predators they are.
So you see, “forced”.
Fresno as well. Only a small amount of news picked it up, but there was a huge amount of people out.
Im seeing a lot of local cities doing the same.
We’re not far away from nationwide protests. Grab your Sharpies and make some signs.
In fact, they’re already planned for this weekend. See the map below for the one closest to you:
