@ReneeVoiceBrand @MidnightRider Another reason for the decision, at least for the insurrections on the bench, could be to get plenty of automatic weapons into MAGA hands before Congress again certifies a Biden victory.
@walterbays @ReneeVoiceBrand Friend, I have MAGA in my family, probably sitting on 3K rounds and more firearms than a fireman's sleeve. They're good to go right now.
@MidnightRider @walterbays When they're met by a well-trained army they'll be cannon fodder. They all love to play soldier but are too damn cowardly to actually BE a soldier.
@ReneeVoiceBrand @walterbays The government has screwed up responses to this since Trump in January, I wouldn't plan of them finally waking up if MAGA hits the streets.
@ReneeVoiceBrand @MidnightRider I agree. And though there are a few white supremacists in the ranks I think most soldiers and officers are honorable and respect their oaths of duty far more than many of those congressmen and justices.
Some people always come back fearing the Nazis wearing the US uniform will take control and side with the insurrectionists, like in banana republic coups. I think it's to be aware of, not afraid. Because top brass are surely aware and ready.
@walterbays @ReneeVoiceBrand I think the capital police asked for backup. None was dispatched. I have no doubt US forces directed against violence would prevail, but someone would need to deploy them; that's where I think the hypothesis could fail.
@walterbays @ReneeVoiceBrand @MidnightRider
From personal experience, I would like to say that it is a bad bet to trust trained soldiers to not follow orders.
@walterbays @ReneeVoiceBrand @MidnightRider
It is, of course, often a bad bet to trust certain ones _to_ follow them, too.
@AskTheDevil @walterbays @ReneeVoiceBrand I never said otherwise, but no orders are also followed.
@YouInMyEye @ReneeVoiceBrand @walterbays Won't even need that, ADS (active denial system) works from miles away.
Is that the one tat makes them wish they were wearing adult diapers?
@NorthernInvader @YouInMyEye @ReneeVoiceBrand @walterbays Microwave oven for humans
@YouInMyEye @ReneeVoiceBrand @MidnightRider @walterbays
Biden is locked & loaded. Make no mistake about it.
@LnzyHou @YouInMyEye @ReneeVoiceBrand @walterbays I wish I could say I believe that, but I don't. Trump and the GOP have gotten away with so much shit it's shocking.
@MidnightRider @YouInMyEye @ReneeVoiceBrand @walterbays
You don’t have to believe it.
@LnzyHou @YouInMyEye @ReneeVoiceBrand @walterbays I believe what's proven though actions.
@MidnightRider @LnzyHou @YouInMyEye @ReneeVoiceBrand @walterbays The Biden administration is aware of these risks and will not suffer any fools. The danger is Trump. If he gets in again he'll replace everyone that would hold him back. Vote!
@danielbsmith @LnzyHou @YouInMyEye @ReneeVoiceBrand @walterbays Show me the evidence that the Democrats have pushed back hard, demanded Jack Smith be heard or any other action forcefully against Donald J Trump.
@MidnightRider @danielbsmith @LnzyHou @YouInMyEye @ReneeVoiceBrand Dems always think that if they show by their actions how they follow the rules and put country over party, then their opponents will be shamed into doing likewise, or the swing independent voters will recognize them as the best choice. Hasn't worked yet.
Just like news media thinking that if they tell every story from both sides readers/viewers will see them as better than the propaganda outlets. Hasn't worked yet.
@walterbays @MidnightRider @danielbsmith @LnzyHou @ReneeVoiceBrand
How do we fight shamelessness...
@YouInMyEye @walterbays @MidnightRider @danielbsmith @LnzyHou @ReneeVoiceBrand
How do we fight psychological propaganda.
Example: Todays headline: Trump speaks at largest church in Detroit seaking to expand his African American. I was disappointed and saddened at the headline and article. It had no pictures.
Later I come across a photo of the event in which there are few people of color at the event. No one from the congregation attended, not even the pastor. THAT wasnt reported.
@Bliss @YouInMyEye @walterbays @MidnightRider @danielbsmith @LnzyHou @ReneeVoiceBrand I saw this picture earlier. Looks like the campaign paid the church a lot of $ to keep Black people out. Simply a photo-op and nothing more. Just like the Chick-fil-A in Atlanta.
@Iveyjanette1 @Bliss @YouInMyEye @MidnightRider @danielbsmith @LnzyHou @ReneeVoiceBrand The Trump family has a long history of keeping Black people out of buildings.
@walterbays @Bliss @YouInMyEye @MidnightRider @danielbsmith @LnzyHou @ReneeVoiceBrand Yep. And he all but kept Black and Brown people out of that park in the Bronx last month.
@Iveyjanette1 @Bliss @YouInMyEye @MidnightRider @danielbsmith @LnzyHou @ReneeVoiceBrand I'd contribute to a fund for the Central Park 5 to put up billboards or ads, saying whatever they'd like. I'd suggest something about equal justice.
@Bliss @YouInMyEye @MidnightRider @danielbsmith @LnzyHou @ReneeVoiceBrand Trump thought the way to curry favor with Black voters was to refer to one supporter as *my* African American.
@walterbays @Bliss @YouInMyEye @MidnightRider @danielbsmith @LnzyHou @ReneeVoiceBrand this article is from 2019.
@redenigma @Bliss @YouInMyEye @MidnightRider @danielbsmith @LnzyHou @ReneeVoiceBrand Yes. I don't think his attitude on race has changed much from rental redlines to Central Park 5 to "my" African American to the whites only Black church.
@Bliss @walterbays @MidnightRider @danielbsmith @LnzyHou @ReneeVoiceBrand
Who's to know what's really going on. Corporate medias function as shills by the nature of their desires to cover most relevant event, stories, and breaking news themselves are getting manipulated to the benefit of the manipulators.
@Bliss @YouInMyEye @walterbays @MidnightRider @danielbsmith @ReneeVoiceBrand
I told y’all.
I’m born in Detroit. We know a demented grifter when we see one.
POC know he’s a racist on the hustle.
@LnzyHou @Bliss @YouInMyEye @walterbays @danielbsmith @ReneeVoiceBrand Lindsay, all across NY, far outside the city; Trump was known as a rip-off artist who bankrupted contractors. In Manhattan he was disliked intensely.
@Bliss @YouInMyEye @walterbays @danielbsmith @LnzyHou @ReneeVoiceBrand The only way to "fight" it is to show up in November in numbers and vote him to oblivion where he belongs. Then prosecute him for the deeper crimes and restore the country.
@walterbays @MidnightRider @danielbsmith @YouInMyEye @ReneeVoiceBrand
Fascism hasn’t worked yet either.
@LnzyHou @walterbays @danielbsmith @YouInMyEye @ReneeVoiceBrand It sure could have worked. Had Hitler been smarter about the deployment of his exceptional never before seen technologies we would all be speaking German. That's what's wrong with America right now, the idiots fanboying over Hitler as an icon are dangerous fools.
@walterbays @danielbsmith @LnzyHou @YouInMyEye @ReneeVoiceBrand Media like all else in this country capitulates to money and power.
@ReneeVoiceBrand @LnzyHou @YouInMyEye @MidnightRider @walterbays
Meanwhile, en route to the church there was this billboard.
Government has predator drones, F35/F18 - won't take long to wipe out any resistance without losing any combat troops
@MidnightRider @walterbays @ReneeVoiceBrand What a coincidence! I have some lefty redneck friends who moved to my state because of it's relaxed approach to arsenal laws.
@AskTheDevil @walterbays @ReneeVoiceBrand To me, point is that Trump has been allowed to foment violence, that's the genus of the problem.
@walterbays @ReneeVoiceBrand @MidnightRider
More likely money/votes than bullets. They need the substantial campaign $ that come from the gun crowd. And as the minority corner of a minority party, they need to kiss up to the gun nuts if they want to stay in office.
