Would not looking at those shouting "Death to America!", or at those pro-Hamas protestors on College campuses and city streets, or possibly those marching through the halls of Congress denouncing US policies and our support of Israel, NOT be where one might start? 🤔

As " Mr. Spock"would say: "It's only logical".

"The FBI is set to warn Congress about a possible "organised attack" in the US similar to the one that killed 144 people at a Russian concert hall last month.

"Looking back over my career in law enforcement, I'd be hard-pressed to think of a time where so many threats to our public safety and national security were so elevated all at once," FBI director Christopher Wray is set to tell a House of Representatives panel during a budget hearing on Thursday. "But that is the case as I sit here today. This is not a point when we can let up."

Mr Wray will tell lawmakers that US officials have previously been worried about the possibility of an attack carried out by an individual or small group inspired by the war between Israel and Hamas in Gaza, but the FBI is growing increasingly concerned about a more coordinated attack following the concert massacre in Russia.

Of increasing concern "is the potential for a coordinated attack here in the homeland, akin to the Isis-K attack we saw at the Russia concert hall a couple weeks ago", Mr Wray will say."

Well after all this talk, it seems to me, again, what has to be done. And can't happen without new leadership that is not again, risk adverse and fears escalation. Those are always geopolitical concerns. But as long as our enemies know that is how our leaders act. They have/will/are taking advantage of it.

Yep academic intellectuals with no real military experience or even knowledge E.g. They planned the A'stan debacle … They need to stay in the classroom. They are good examples of "Those that can't do … teach."

Afghan terrorist caught crossing border
This gov't sanctioned open border foolishness is clearly an open door for every terrorist, criminal, sex trafficker, drug runner, etc., etc. to come on down. Regardless how many Americans must die because of this policy ? Those leaders and those that support this horrible policy they have US blood on their hands. I guess they must think those are acceptable losses for the greater good. To "fundamentally change America" …

Again, what about the terrorists that got away and crossed the border successfully ? What happens if terrorists from one or more of the many radical islamic groups… somehow, they make a mass casualty attack like in Russia recently ? Or even just kill a few Americans on their jihad ?

I guess those killed will be acceptable losses for the greater good. Of the progressive woke DEI, CRT, globalists socialists, etc., plans for America.

Well as we know only a hand full of terrorists can do a lot of damage. Even only one for that matter.

However, it is well known what happened on J6 was a full out insurrection. An attempt to overthrow the country. Not a riot. Just ask the DOJ or FBI, etc. …

Logic and a little clearer thinking dictate what happened on J6 was a riot and not an insurrection. What happened in A'stan was an insurrection … Not what happened on J6 … But that would not fit their narrative and agenda …

J6 was certainly not an insurrection.
First, if it was, it was the first insurrection in history in which the rebels thought they were defending the legitimate government.
Whether you are for them or against them, there is no denying that they thought they were protecting the legitimate government.
Second, insurrection is unrelated to marching into the nation's capital. It's not necessary. It's not part of the definition. George Washington managed a successful insurrection and never got anywhere near London.
Insurrection is about taking land, and declaring it outside of the control of the established government. Like Washington did. Like the Confederates and the Seattle "Autonomous Zone" kids did, for a while. That's insurrection.

SBminisguy29 Apr 2024 7:35 a.m. PST

BenFromBrooklyn +1 -- In contrast we have an insurrectionist event on May 30, 2020 when a large violent mob of Antifa/BLM rioters attempted to storm the White House. In the process they injured up to 150 Secret Service and US Park Police, destroyed 9-10 cars, set multiple fires in the area and burned an historic church. The attack forced the President and family to seek in the WH bunker. Btw, the Mayor of DC ordered the DC police to stand down and NOT help the White House -- so a DEMOCRAT refused the lawful request for aid by someone because they were a REPUBLICAN political opponent. How Third World is that!?! And people wonder why talk of "civil war" gets bandied about…

Yes those calling J6 and insurrection as they are ignorant of what an insurrection is. And/or calling it that fits the narrative and agenda of some pushing that myth. It was a riot … period. That could have been avoid …

And as we know the riots of 2020 started by BLM and Antifa were not an insurrection either. But massive destructive riots. Which should have given Congress enough facts to designate them as domestic terrorist. But again, that would not have fit the narrative and agenda of some of our leaders(?). And of course some would declare it to be racists. And Antifa was only using their right to freedom of speech, etc.

We see something like this is happening now on many of our college campuses. Guest there were no lessons learned from 2020? Or like many things by our leaders … just ignored …

Regarding DC police -- again we see unequal enforcement of the law. George Washington University has been invaded by pro-Hamas demonstrators who have taken over the small central "quad" area and surrounding streets and are blocking and disrupting classes, access, and threatening Jewish students. The University has asked the DC police to eject the demonstrators who are causing damage, assaulting people and disrupting the school.

The DC police HAVE REFUSED to enforce the law. They seem to be little more than a Praetorian Guard to enforce the political whims and will of the Mayor of DC.

Congress should revoke DC's Home Rule and take it back under direct management.

So….the Biden Admin now wants to intake tens of thousands of "refugees" from Gaza and give them residency status in the US…nothing like importing Hamas sympathizers and foot soldiers directly! And it will surely save them the hassle of coming in via the Mexican border like the do now -- instead they can get a flight direct to the US where they will be given generous social welfare support…

SB, yes and no. Yes he wants to bring Palestinian refugees in (sadly). But not 10s of thousands, I think based on articles, "only" thousands. As we see on our streets and campuses already, they do not love us. "Death to America!"

But aren't we already letting millions in from countries that have never had a love for our culture, type of government or… us for that matter? Just as a Tiger can't change its stripes, he will not voluntarily change his policy. 😔

"My dissertation is on fantasies of limitless energy in the transatlantic Romantic imagination from 1760-1860. My goal is to write a prehistory of metabolic rift, Marx's term for the disruption of energy circuits caused by industrialization under capitalism. I am particularly interested in theories of the imagination and poetry as interpreted through a Marxian lens in order to update and propose an alternative to historicist ideological critiques of the Romantic imagination. Prior to joining Columbia, I worked as a political strategist for leftist and progressive causes and remain active in the higher education labor movement."

"The list includes airsoft goggles, knee and elbow pads, utility gloves – without reinforced knuckles – bright flashlights with strobe, rope, zip ties, skater helmets, shields, wood to construct a barrier and non-steroid inhalers.

Also needed is "hot food for lunch" and gluten-free food. Packaged foods, coffee, bagels, bananas and nuts are specifically not wanted

The list of needs goes on to request sleeping pads, various types of batteries, electric and solar-powered generators and Aquaphor, a brand of over-the-counter skin ointment. Sunscreen is not desired, according to the list.

Organizers are requesting that donors make sure the items comply with the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement, which promotes boycotts, divestment and economic sanctions against Israel."

But with many US very wealthy individuals and groups. That have given $ to US leaders elections, etc. These anti-US Americans can't be touch.

This is about as clear a moral choice as you can ever have. These demonstrators are agitating on behalf of one of the most horrific and oppressive regimes since the fall of the Third Reich. And they do so reflexively, having supped at the table of Leftist revisionism at University and who probably have parents who are morally ambiguous in their world views -- and they use "protest" as self-therapy to expiate feelings of guilt and to defer dealing with their problems by projecting their anger.

In short, they are children in adult bodies who have never progressed past their Terrible Twos. So they are lost, they are so blind and so used to supporting whatever new cause they are told to that now they are supporting visceral, brutal evil.

Hamas are WORSE than the Nazi Einsatztruppen units, because if you read the accounts those men had to get stoned on meth to carry out their evil deed, and then were morally conflicted and many became drug addicts to avoid feeling guilt and to keep doing their deeds, and many also committed suicide. Hamas killers in contrast reveled in their massacre, live streamed the tortures, called the Mom's to brag about their killings!! They remain unrepentant. And they must be destroyed.

Netanyahu's only real error is moving TOO SLOWLY! He should have blitzed the crap out of Gaza, given the Left no time to organize their anti-Jewish/pro-Hamas coalitions and killed or captured every Hamas leader and soldier they could. There's also no reason why the Hamas leadership continue to draw breath in their Quatar mansions.

"Freedom of speech"?

Who pays for the wanton destruction and vandalism? Who is punished?

We know what they did to those on January 6. It is reported many, many of these are released the next day? Why?

Why the dichotomy of justice?

How is this fair? Destruction, vandalism, occupation, antisemitism, violence, breaking and entering, stopping classes and graduations, occupying police time and costing the taxpayers millions.

Oh and the POTUS wants us to pay off the loans of these useless leeches.

What would happen in case of an Oct 7 attack? Would politicized senior military leadership cripple our response as they did on Jan 6 2021?

Senior DC National Guard leadership testified as Whistleblowers that despite being ready to deploy on Jan 6, it was senior officers at the Pentagon going all the way up to General Milley who stalled the response! Upon getting the official request for NG assistance, acting SecDef Miller under Trump directed the Pentagon to respond…and they didn't!

Colonel Earl Matthews came forward as a whistleblower to the House subcommittee reviewing the January 6 Select Committee's investigation.

He sat down with DailyMail.com two weeks after the public hearing to explain what he saw happen that day.

He claims that Mark Milley, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff at the time, and then-Army Secretary Ryan McCarthy, were plotting to disobey any orders handed down by Trump because they ‘unreasonably' assumed the then-president was going to break the law and try to use the D.C. National Guard (DCNG) to stop certification of the 2020 presidential election results.

Yes all the usual suspects, and yes the leaders of BLM said they were Marxists. IIRC like Lenin talked about "useful dupes". Many in the BLM riots were very much "useful dupes". As we see with the current riots at US universities, they too drank the Kool Aid and followed a similar dogma is based on Marxism.

As is the woke, DEI, CRT/1619, etc. push by a very well-funded minority that wants to "fundamentally change America".

As we know it seems the vast amount of the people in the US Heartland don't want this. Only the well-funded intellectual elites, etc. on both coasts. Are supporting this narrative.

Plus, with the wide-open borders as I said before, who knows who crosses and is now roaming around the USA ?

FWIW Antifa are just mostly spoiled rich white kids that are anarchists. But they too are being organized, supported, etc., by all the usual suspects …
E.g.; Iran, Hamas, other moslem nations, the well-fund US citizens who support this dogma. And yes, the CCP …

Hmmm….a Democrat from South Texas vocally criticized the current Open Border policy, and shortly thereafter found himself subjected to a No-Knock armed FBI raid. Now, two years later they finally got around to revealing the indictment as an unregistered Foreign Agent, with charges going back 10 years.

And that's how the system works when the folks in charge want something to happen as messy as the current Open Border and Mass Illegal Immigration/Internal Colonization project (Recent data from the Center for Immigration Studies suggests that about 90% of the roughly 386,000 illegal immigrants that have been flown into the United States under the Biden administration's parole program for illegal immigrants from certain countries have been admitted to the country at ports of entry in Florida and Texas)…

"There is an old Cherokee legend that details out a story about a young boy who is theoretically debating with a snake about whether or not he should trust the snake in this particular situation and agree to pick the snake up.

Thankfully for the sake of the story, but not necessarily so wonderful for the boy, the snake eventually coaxes him into picking him up and to absolutely no one's surprise, the snake bites him.

What is a huge surprise, is the fact that the boy reacts with absolutely shock that the snake would bite him and calls him out for breaking his solemn promise not to do so … only to have the snake reply, "You knew what I was when you picked me up."
