Optics.... This strike was telegraphed when the bombers took off so the bad guys had time to move. And don't you think it's quite a coincidence that our long awaited retaliation happened the day our three deceased soldiers came home?
We could have done this days ago and without telegraphing our response.
If I'm Gov of Texas, in addition to ignoring the feds on border control measures, I would also unleash the oil industry to generate income to pay for the border security. I'd open ALL public lands within the state borders to drilling, regardless of feds' policies, permits, etc. Drill, baby drill!!!!
We need to keep in mind that the R's and D's are both wings on the same bird. Neither have any intent to do what is right and necessary for this country. \
As for "FISA works both ways" - its pretty obvious that it only works one way, and I don't think that will change anytime soon.
Follow up to the post above: what is plausible? Elements from Moody AFB may be preparing to deploy, but certainly not the whole base. Also plausible: we have response forces that are always ready to deploy upon notification - 7k is likely part of that response force, but they are at their home station. The AF would send the transports to the troops in this scenario, not send them all to Moody. Also plausible that this is a drill designed to ensure readiness. Bottom line: there might be a kernel of truth in this twatter, but definitely not anything to get worked up about... yet.
This is a case where five minutes of research and some common sense should prevail. Its not hard to find info on Moody AFB: fighter wing, search/rescue, and medical evacuation/treatment are the primary forces at the AFB, and the base itself is only 4.1 sq miles in size (VERY small). They don't have 7000 troops to deploy.
Next, where are the 7k troops coming from? The nearest Army bases have their own airfields - so why move 7k troops all the way to Moody? Doesn't make sense.
For this twatter post to make sense, we' have to believe the Army (or any other military agency) is moving a lot of people a considerable distance to a tiny AFB that primarily provides fighters, close air support and medevacs (NO TRANSPORT capabilities). We also have to believe Air Mobility Command is going to redirect a ton of transport aircraft to a small AFB to pick up a bunch of troops/equipment that would've initiated troop/equipment movements at least three days ago to get to the AFB. (Its called "logistics" and it doesn't move quickly). We also have to believe that TransCom and Air Mobility Command would buy into sending all of the required transportation assets to Moody, when it makes much more sense to send those A/C to the bases where the troops are stationed.
The military would send A/C to the troops, or troops to the A/C, but not send troops and A/C to a third location. Too much for me to hit the "I believe" button.
As per the U.S. Constitution, Article 1, Section 5: "Each House may determine the Rules of its Proceedings, punish its Members for disorderly Behaviour, and, with the Concurrence of two thirds, expel a Member."
Unpopular fact: the House of Representatives is well within its Constitutional rights and duties to expel a member. The Framers built this in to the Constitution for a reason.
I just wish they would hold EVERY member to the same standard. Then again, if they did that, we would only have about 5 elected officials in Congress, as the rest are criminals.
It would take at least two or three election cycles, minimum, to vote enough of them out to start to make a difference. I don't think we have that much time before the government, at all levels, is weaponized against us - I don't think we can elect our way out of this. I sincerely hope I'm wrong, but my money is on the "animal snipers" mentioned above!
This all sounds good on the surface, but why is the FBI really looking into this? Our 3 letter agencies haven't been on the side of law and order for quite a while now, so we have to ask: what's the angle?
What are the odds that the FBI is "investigating" only to seize and hide evidence?
Reading this article constitutes about 5 minutes of my life that I'll never get back. The first half talks about how the "experts" are giddy about the strong economy and future growth under Biden. The second half of the article talks about why the economy sucks, and how Americans dislike Biden, which is the reason why the economy sucks. Complete waste of time to read this drivel.
I sincerely hope my summary saves at least one person from clicking this link and reading this horseshit they call "news."
I'd like to see her try that crap in Saudi Arabia or Qatar... she wouldn't just be detained, she'd be imprisoned. She don't have the stones to give it a shot in a less tolerant environment. And neither do the rest of the green weenies.
It will take some time for the zombie business to activate and show indications of infection. Wait a while... if we're all still here tomorrow we might just be OK!
(Still keeping one in the chamber... just in case.)
How about we just skip to the end and start hanging the treasonous bastards already?
We know who they are, enough of what they're guilty of, and we know the "law" has been undermined to the point where justice will not come from a court room of any kind.
I know the expectation is the military will come in and mete out the justice appropriately, but I think the military is no longer in a position to do so... they've been overrun by wierdos, SJWs and lefties. (very similar to our current court system and DOJ).
Not dooming - just looking to survive through this in a realistic manner, just like every body else.
If this is anything substantial, it would have been "leaked" before the 2020 election, the media, FBI, and intel community would have debunked it as Russian disinformation and we'd still be where we are today. Absolutely no reason to think this will be anything significant. Most likely Biden will lose a few votes, but nothing will come of this, whatever it is. Everybody already knows he and his entire family and political machine are criminals.
You're not too far off... they "out" themselves with ridiculous hair, piercings and tattoos. Not that I'm against tattoos - plenty of good guys have them, however the good guys are pretty easily distinguished by their actions. If this goes down, the enemy would be pretty easy to spot - they would be the ones displaying hurt feelings and don't understand their actions have consequences.
Lefties will be the ones trying to figure out how the safety selector works.
I think the argument lies in the "authorities" to issue mask mandates, lockdowns, etc. As we observed during the wu flu, most of the "officials" ordering lockdowns (think Fauci) were not elected policy makers - they were unelected bureaucrats, often without the authority to do anything except make recommendations. The CDC is a private organization - NOT a government agency, event though they are federally funded. They do not have the authority to order anything, as they lack the authorization from Congress.
A mayor is an elected official, and as a representative of the people, can choose to ignore mandates from organizations that only have the authority to recommend specific actions.
Additionally, if I were a mayor, if I had to, I would also "detain" anyone from the government that tries to enforce unlawful mandates, and send them packing on the next thing smoking out of my town. The County Sheriff also has a huge amount of authority in such matters. Make friends with the Sheriff and keep him on your side.
Makes me want to fire up my Dodge Ram diesel and let it idle in the driveway for a while - you know, to do my part to contribute to "global climate change."
When do we start feeding these power hungry communist asshats into wood chippers? Asking for a friend.
My pure-bread Golden Retriever was perfectly healthy before getting vaccines... he almost immediately developed allergies to nearly all food. He's on a VERY special diet that we developed specifically for him. Its expensive and time consuming, but its what we have to do to keep him healthy. There's a lot of groups on FB (yeah, I know, but they have a ton of great information on this) that deal specifically with pet health.
I refuse to give him any further vaccines... I don't remember pets developing all of these allergies/illnesses prior to about 10 years ago. Got to be vaccines and mass produced pet food making them sick.
Popular interpretation: 2 POTUS = Biden and Trump
Most likely interpretation: Biden and Obama
