Ok, then so we don't hurt anyone's little feelings, we'll refer to them as ignorant, cowardly Dem jackasses.


Now, got that straightened out.

I spent years training partner forces to dismantle exactly this kind of apparatus. Now pieces of it are standing up in American cities, enabled by elements of local government and civil society. That should keep every thinking American awake at night.

Not because I want escalation. But because history shows these things don’t de-escalate on their own once the infrastructure exists and the cadre believe they’re winning the information war.

We either recognize what we’re actually looking at—or we pretend it’s still just “activism” until the structures harden and spread.

Your call, America. But from where I sit, this isn’t January 2026 politics anymore.
It’s phase one of something we’ve spent decades trying to keep off our own soil.


Otherwise unbelievable if we weren't witnessing it with our own eyes. This sort of thing used to be limited to Tom Clancy novels, now we're seeing it livestreamed on social media.

The Insurrection Act


Either Trump is just a straight scared fool, or he has bad actors, yet again, in his administration. Presidents of past have not, and would not, have hesitated to use it.

I have no sympathy whatsoever for this administration, as they are actively spectating their own demise.

Tip toeing around is what's caused this craziness.

Idk what's going on with him.

Scared the msm and Democrats will call him a dictator? They've done that for years.


Scared the Democrats will impeach him? They gonna do that regardless of the insurrection act. If dems take congress. He'll get impeached multiple times no matter what. If they take the Senate, he'll be charged and removed from office, no matter what he does or doesn't do.

I think he has bad advisers. Telling him that the longer this goes on the better it is for him because it shows the voters how deranged the Democrats are. It's dumb because most voters already know how fricked up Democrats are. This is only showing that he's scared to do anything to restore order.

Trump understands the Insurrection Act is political suicide for the entire ticket, into 2028 .

The polling and reports suggest the opposite. The smart people in his admin are trying to figure out how to get out of MN.

I don't agree with this, but if that's the case, he shouldn't have had this massive push into MN.

So again, you either deal with the shite fully, or you don't start at all. The party's demise is going halfway into this and it lingering on and festering.

He never would have done this if not for the Somali fraud. That's what drove him to MN. There are a helluva lot more illegals in LA and Chicago.

And also, he much preferred taking on the incompetent Walz than Pritzker or Newsom.

You can disagree all you want from the bunk of PT TD is may not look like they are winning but outside of these rightwing safe spaces they are most def setting the tone and driving the narrative. This is not because they are logical, they are not, nor is it because they hold views that most support. It's because they control most of the machine that frames these issues. You can see this is the way they are able to keep on point, from Clinton, to Obama to AOC and down to the white woke middle class mama bear. You can see it in how they keep escalating the tone at official press briefings. You can see it in the headlines of the vast majority of news stories, even FOX and Newsmax.

The right better get organized and get ready to turn out and be a loud voice. Online clicktavism is not working

The Somali fraud isn't really related to immigration though. The somalis in Minnesota are almost all citizens, with the vast majority of the remaining ones being here legally. There is fraud potentially in Minnesota, but trying to turn that into an immigration issue is not rational

He's not going to do for one simple reason. He knows they are losing the PR war with the left on this.


So what's his off ramp? How does he get out of this? I have no idea.

It seems that Trump...and Noem...gave zero thought to an exit strategy and how this all ends.


With the spotlight on Noem, more is being written about the deep divide between Noem and Homan. Trump has even referred to it before. Apparently, Homan really wanted to focus on going after the violent criminals...rapists, drug dealers, traffickers, violent criminals. Noem...and Lewandowsky...wanted to round up all of them...gardeners, busboys, whoever...to boost numbers. Apparently, there is no love lost between Homan and Noem.

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.

Far-left extremists linked to Antifa and anarchist and communist extremists are encouraging comrades to go to Minneapolis as "delegates" for an armed uprising against the U.S. government. They're raising funds for weapons, tactical gear and supplies on @GoFundMe.
