The link is to an excellent article which covers events before the election, problems with the election and where the country appears to be heading. The writer doesn't spare Trump, but makes clear that the Demoncrats are a great danger now and for the future. It is longish. The state of things, i.e. the continuing crisis

Anyone who watched what was happening knew this was the case. Calling the January 6th debacle an "armed insurrection" was always a lie and propaganda. Isn't it strange how insurrectionists would try to "over turn" the government without weapons? It has also come out that Trump suggested that there should be 10,000 National Guardsmen in D.C. on the day of the rally. The Capitol Police, i.e. Pelosi said no to this. Are you saying there were no guns?

How to attract more illegal aliens. Demoncrats vote for stimulus bills for illegal aliens Thank that f*@ker Mitch McConnell for this. Contrary to his blarney that Trump was responsible for the loss of the two Senate seats in Georgia, it was McConnell and the RINOs in Georgia who lost those seats. From the moment it became clear that there were many irregularities in the Georgia election, people warned the RINOs in Georgia and Congress to do their best to demonstrate that Republicans were doing their best to get to the bottom of the problem. Instead of doing that, Kemp, Raffensperger and Duncan did everything the could to cover up and slow-walk any investigation. They even ignored videos showing people (Demoncrats) pulling out cases of "votes" from underneath tables once Republicans had been told to go home because of (non-existent) water leaks. McConnell did not even push RINOs in Georgia to at least pretend to be doing something. Despite this lack of support for Trump, Trump held two or three big rallies for Perdue and Loeffler. I watched them. He kept telling everyone to get out and vote for Perdue and Loefller as Republicans needed to hold the Senate. But, as Republicans had been warned, not even having Trump come to Georgia was enough to get hundreds-of-thousands of voters out again as they saw the boondoggle of November 3rd. They saw the clear sign that the Republican Party was not going to do anything about it. Even worse, although the party holds the Governorship, Lt. Governorship, Secretary of State, House and Senate, nothing was done to make sure the Senate runoffs in December were rid of the obvious problems/irregularities which were apparent in the Nov 3rd election. Many of the people who stayed at home during the Dec runoffs clearly figured there was no point in bothering to vote when the system was rigged. Had asshole Mitch and prick Rove spent a little of the hundreds of millions wasted on the runoff, to try and support corrections in the voters laws i.e. do away with the secret "consent agreement" between Stefanie Abrams and Raffensperger, perhaps Perdue and/of Loeffler might have won. We now have the results of that asshole McConnell's brilliance and I hope everyone enjoys it. This outrageous $2 trillion "bill" is only just the beginning of what is coming our way. The Democrats will have two years to destroy our country. P.S. I am confident that Pelosi would never had started the second impeachment had she not had McConnell's tacit agreement. He, like many, completely misunderstood the situation after January 6th. He gleefully thought Trump was finished. Trump was anything but. So I am convinced we owe a debt of gratitude to that criminal Mitch for doing lasting damage to the Republic. The bum thought he could fight Trump and win, but he has done nothing except get weaker since coming out so viciously against Trump. Word is now out that he may retire early in order to get one of his protege's appointed to his seat. It also looks like he and his wife are under investigation for abusing her position in the Dept. of Transportation. Did he think working closely with the Demoncrats would make a difference to them? Idiot. None of these problems would have arisen had Cocaine Mitch slightly modified his behavior on three or four occasions. One can only hope the man rots in hell with his plutocrat donors and D.C. compadres.

I believe Conrad Black has analysed the situation correctly. I made similar observations to someone last week. It looks like we might have the "sadder-but-wiser" Trump i.e. more subdued, that I hoped for. The myth that Trump is finished, is itself finished

Pat Buchanan hits the nail on the head as regards the "domestic terrorism" lie being spread by FBI director Wray, the Demoncrats and other D.C. elites. Like the lie regarding what happened on January 6th, the system is rolling back our rights and trying to crush any opposition. Who, exactly, are the domestic terrorists?

Here is the next abomination which we can expect to be forced down our throats due to Georgia RINO's, Mitch McConnell and Rove "Republicans." As I previously warned, this is nothing more than a law to remove Republicans from power and make the USA a One-Party State. And those liars Manchin and Sinema are not to be believed or relied on to break ranks with their party. They don't care about the country. They care about power. HR.1

There was no voter fraud. Hmmm. When the Arizona Senate finally gets the go-ahead for a proper audit, an interested individual goes to the building where ballots and machines are located only to find open doors, ballots in dumpsters, some of them shredded. Nothing to hide here. Keep moving a long. Shredded ballots in Maricopa County before audit

I don't have to like it, and I don't. What remains of our republic is sliding into tyranny and the criminals in government are sucking the last vitality from the bones. The difference between the, now defunct, Soviet Union and us is becoming harder and harder to find.

The difference is very slim and getting slimmer. I am presently reading a book titled "Bloodlands" which details the slaughter in Eastern Europe i.e. that area between Germany and Russia in which over 14 million innocent people, non-combatants, were murdered before and during WWII.
I have just finished the chapter regarding Stalin's collectivization of farms in the Soviet Union, particularly in the Ukraine. This merely reinforced my belief that should a party/person gain anything near the type of power the Communists under Stalin had, millions of us would be in clear and present danger.
As I keep warning people, policemen, the military and bureaucrats take orders. It only takes the violent liquidation of few thousand in a country, to cow the rest of the population into submission. After that, you can punish the rest anyway you like. Stalin did this by starving millions to death.
There would be little difference here if certain people gained power. Look at the show of force in D.C.
There is, thank God, one huge difference between the USA in 2021 and the Ukraine in 1932-33. Americans have over 400 million guns in their hands to fight back should things continue to worsen. The poor Ukrainians had virtually none.

I’ll grant that no one on the right has the constituency that Trump has. And I’ll grant that six months, let alone four years, is a long time for significant events and/or for the public to change it’s mind about Biden/Harris.
But….I don’t think Trump stands much of a chance to win a national election again (remember, he had the power of being the incumbent) unless he changes his ways.
My view remains the same: Trump was at his best giving prepared speeches (presumably that someone else wrote, which is typical for any president). Therefore I think it’s difficult to judge him by his prepared speech at CPAC. But given that there is no one else presently on the horizon (and that Trump will tend to suck all of the oxygen out of the room), we’re forced to strap ourselves to Trump like Slim Pickens did to the bomb at the end of Dr. Strangelove. Let’s hope for better results. But it is just a hope and I would say not a realistic one at this point.

The one advantage that Russia has in terms of picking up the pieces from the Soviet Union is that the Soviet Union was only being propelled by evil, blood-thirsty, power-hungry socialist ideologues, not hysterical teenage girls, aka “woke teens.” The former can be recovered from. The latter, we have yet to see. I have my doubts. It’s hard to make a judgment about evils. But clearly our current culture is mirroring a Maoist-like “Cultural Revolution.” Led by hysterical, bitchy, and angry young women. And empowered by emasculated men.

I would be more afraid of a gun being wielded by a Texan than one owned by someone in Connecticut. It’s daunting to think of how easily nearly everyone (gun owner or not) acquiesced to a series of unnecessary and zealous power-grabbing diktats from the state regarding the Wuhan Flu.
That is, although I would be somewhat afraid to try to take a gun away from a Texan, I would think a meter-maid going door-to-door would face little opposition everywhere else.

Americans have over 400 million guns in their hands to fight back should things continue to worsen. This is true, but deceptive of those 400 million guns at least half are owned by people who have multiple weaponsI consider myself average and I own two hand guns, two rifles and a shotgun. So, if you consider a 5-1 ratio, conservative I think, then the number of gun owners is is plus or minus 80 million. Now that is is still a large number but nothing like every home being armed to the teeth. Now, if you subtract the number of people without military training, again lets say 5-1 we come to about 16 million. Only 1 in 20 service members ever serve in combat and have killed in the course of their duty. The number of armed, experienced combat veterans is probably less than 1 million. Of that group my guess is that at least half are to old for combat, infirm, or disabled leaving 500,000. Of that number demographics suggest that at least 1/3 will not in any way protest or revolt, 1/3 will set on the sidelines and 1/3 will actually engage. So, about 166,000 men and women in a nation of 350 million may be motivated to oppose a tyrant and fight the government. Doesn't look very hopeful does it?

I would be more afraid of a gun being wielded by a Texan I would add one caveat, never try to take a marine's weapon doesn't matter what state they are from.

I believe you may be a bit on the pessimistic side. One doesn't have to have served in the military to know how to use a gun. I know a good number of people who are very good with weapons, including bows, who never served in the military.
That said, much would depend upon how many in the military and police would balk at attacking their fellow countrymen. The scum bag who is now Secretary of Defense knows this very well. That is why he is trying to get rid of anyone in the military who might be a patriot and insure that it is peopled by leftists and racist blacks like himself.

I have a suspicion that there are a lot more that just Texans who might be difficult to part from their weapons. Maybe I am just living in the past, but I can imagine large numbers of people throughout the West, Midwest and South who love their guns. As a matter of fact, I believe more Americans would fight to hold on to their guns than would fight to hold on to their religion.

In fact, using yutes in revolutions is a time-honored method of inflicting pain on the population and bringing about change. Young idiots, with heads full of mush, are much easier to manipulate and generally more vicious than older people. Yutes will, unthinkingly, go to extremes more quickly and willingly than old farts. Old farts, even if not too bright, understand actions have consequences and these can be unpleasant.
The Soviets did this. The Maoists did this. Pol Pot and Co did this. Hell, the French Revolution was run by a bunch of vicious young sadists at times.
It is always good to mix in known criminals and psychopaths with a mass of yutes. These people insure any moral hesitancy to destroy, which might still reside in the mob's heart, is overcome.

I believe you may be a bit on the pessimistic side. I may be and I am prepared to be amazed, but if you have never killed in combat, especially the kind of guerrilla combat we are likely to see with civil revolt, just knowing how to use a weapon and actually using it are two different things, remember Bambi doesn't shoot back.

No doubt things will be very messy, but those who make it through the first rounds will learn very fast. Then things will get particularly vicious.

Then things will get particularly vicious. I will grant that, and no kind of combat is more brutal and vicious as civil war. I suppose I have the elder view of the younger generation and doubt their commitment to, well--anything but self indulgence. I sincerely hope that it is never tested.
