I do think he won and the election was stolen

I don't necessarily agree, but I fully understand the lack of trust and high level of skepticism with the 2020 election methods around mail in ballots, the lack of identity validation, and inconsistent candidate performance between swing states and nearby solidly red or blue states. This looks suspicious to say the least.

Even if the level of fraud wasn't enough to actually change national election results, the lack of public trust in the process is a massive problem for the republic. People get desperate and things can get dangerous when a huge part of the country believes that our electoral process is rigged. Especially when public trust in our major institutions (Police, Justice System, FBI, Intelligence Community, Mainstream Media, Academia, Big Tech, US Congress, Wall Street, etc.) is already at historically low levels.

Between Antifa and BLM that riot/protest in our cities and the Trump supporters that marched at the capital, I don't think there's a rational argument that there isn't a significant level of anger out there around the state of our government and our country. At some point all of those siloed groups are going to figure out that they actually are on the same side of a lot of issues...and without their monthly dose of media outrage and wedge issue cultivation, they'd realize where the real problem is.

It's quite a significant shot across the bow. The fact that this group is talking about these matters and have formed into an organization shows that they may very well be organizing in other manners as well.

It’s not a shot across the bow. It’s just another group voicing their displeasure, and ultimately it changes nothing. Biden et al aren’t listening to these guys any more than Trump listened to the sky screamers.
