If President Trump does not wield the powers of the Insurrection Act, this fringe group of nu-Communists are going to grow ever increasingly bolder and violent.

We are in a very delicate frame of history where this is still a small enough group to deal with. By handing them the power to continue disrupting normal, lawful, American life, we are handing them the power to continually recruit and grow stronger in both numbers and intensity.

By cucking out on crushing them now, President Trump is putting this country in real danger of a full Communist coup. A lack of effective response is only going to encourage these nu-Communists in their recruitment efforts. Soon enough, if nothing is done to stop them now, their movement be too large to handle effectively without real blood and destruction.

The past few days has shown clearly to normal American people that these nu-Communists have developed the communication and organization infrastructure required to enact their desired Revolution. The only thing these provocateurs really need now is numbers.

Why not stop them now, when the bulk of them are in one centralized location? Dangerous domestic enemies are clearly operating on our soul, and failure to act against them is, at this point, criminal.

If President Trump fails to stop them at this juncture of history, then I have to say I'm giving up on him, because he might as well be complicit in the fall of the United States.

I implore the President to use all powers available to him to crush America's enemies, foreign and domestic. Their continued destruction of everything Americans hold sacred will not stop unless they are convinced to by force.

Not sure why he is being such a coward on this. The only time he flexes his muscle is internationally.

Literally nothing domestic.

Letting them burn out or erupting into something greater is useful. Show the lack in state control as well as highlighting the malfeasance along with any criminal activity isn’t a bad thing

They have organized to upend the enforcement of US law in their jurisdiction and conspired with the state government to do it.

These are not a bunch of idiot hippies with tomtom drums and signs. This is organized sedition.

Trump looks weak. It is very bad

“ Looks weak”
I’m sure it’s constraint but putting massive amounts of people in jail will highlight the fact of how and why this is happening. Government involvement coordinated with people on the ground will make a big impact

While I feel the same as you for the most part.
I am also apprehensive about getting advice on national security policies from an Internet message board user that has probably not attended any briefings or received any legal advice on the topic.

He's not going to do for one simple reason. He knows they are losing the PR war with the left on this. The media and all Dem leaders are aligned on message. Their side of the story get out. The right side of the story dies on X with 2K hearts and shares or even more obscurely on places like TD. Meanwhile many on the right are busy trying to create a pure MAGA GOP and purge anyone who may not be fully aligned with all MAGAF positions.

Trump knows the right are not organized for direct action, counter protest and prone to talk big but do little. He knows if he pulls that cord, the vermin in MN will scatter and show up in other blue cities and this will go on over and over and over throughout the year and into the election...prob will anyways but he'll not defeat them at this point in MSP by calling out the troops.

The left's views are illogical, anti-American and openly hypocritical. It doesn't matter. They have won the battle of feelings and that's what matters.

Trump's own prior behavior has made it hard for a lot of folks to be sympathetic to him, even if they agree with him on many issues. They are not going to support him if he calls federal troops in to use force against American citizens. Even if those stupid arse commies are fighting for illegals and open boarders and challenging sovereignty of the US Gov. All issues most people in America are more aligned with Trump than the commie left.

Trump is being tactically restrained until a point that force would be overwhelmingly justified. That would probably look like dead DHS on the streets and burning buildings. We are not at that point yet.

This.

His hesitation is weakness, and and his indecisiveness emboldens these insurrectionists.

Invoking the Insurrection Act when he's losing support for being too aggressive is basically the political equivalent of blowing your hand off with a firecracker.

Fatal? No, but disfiguring for life that can't be undone.

Boasberg will rule the Insurrection Act unconstitutional, he probably has the Opinion written just needs the ACLU to file suit.

Stage is being set for why you need to withdraw support from Trump if he makes the 'massive blunder' of 'giving them what they want' if he invokes the Insurrection Act.

Look, many of them are not gonna leave on their own.

They're just not.

When Trump and Tulsi make that burn bag presentation to the country about the 2020 election theft [and all the OTHER rigged elections over the past couple of decades!] with their Venezuelan informant in tow, the people currently illegally occupying all of those public offices solely due to a massive foreign-coordinated/funded/directed criminal conspiracy to defraud the American public of their rights to pick their own leaders are not just gonna say "Oops, oh shite, you caught me! I'm leaving, sorry!"

No, they're not gonna do that.

All these mob bosses hand-picked to 'win' those rigged/fake/ghey af 'elections' and illegally occupy those public officers are GOING TO REFUSE TO VACATE THEM.

And since the vile system that's been rigging many of the electoral races in our country for decades had their hand-picked 'winners' stocking the state/county/city courts and law enforcement agencies with their own compliant and docile people, those courts and those law enforcement agencies are not going to remove them from office.

Understand?

They're gonna use the law enforcement and the courts they control to try to DIG IN and stay in those offices that they defrauded their way into.

There's only one way you force these these beneficiaries of a massive criminal conspiracy to vacate those offices:

You use the military they don't control to remove them.

You use the military courts they don't control to prosecute them.

You then send them after their trial and conviction based on the documented evidence to a military prison or military execution ground.

All of this begins with the invocation of the Insurrection Act. It's what will begin this process of removing this sick cancer from our country.

So of course, certain social media influencers and celebrity 'MAGA' personalities are currently laying the groundwork to influence as many people in the Trump base as possible to change their minds about how 'America First' Trump is if he makes this 'stupid blunder' of invoking the Insurrection Act.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!

The level of coordination and organization makes this 100% an insurrection.

That was then...all politics is current and local. Don't be shocked that the American electorate is not logical We are emotional, we've been trained and taught to let our feelings guide us

Referring to the protesters as “communists” is so 50’s and 60’s that it’s quaint.

For once I agree with you.

But not for the reasons you think.

These people aren’t 50s-60s style communists. They, at least had a veneer of being civilized.

What THESE people are, are straight up 1917-1922 BOLSHEVIKS.

Does any state have a more pathetic, inept, nasty group of leaders than Minnesota?

Good grief. Tim Walz. Jacob Frey. Keith Ellison. Peggy “Signal Chat” Flanagan. Amy Klobuchar. Ilhan Omar.

What a colossal bunch of unlikable, pathetic losers.

I say dump every illegal alien ICE catches anywhere in the US off in Minnesota and then cordon the state off.

You want them so bad? You got ‘em.

THIS is who the liberal useful idiots are in the streets screeching incoherently about being deported:
