Bill said the opposing - winning - side said "OK, next time we'll play for first downs".<br /><br />When one side, as you note, is willing to cast aside the rules to win the game, there's no game any more.<br /><br />The problem, as I see it, is that our side (at least in the Elite circles) is more interested in peaceful coexistence, read: submission, and continuing to be invited to the beautiful-people cocktail parties (let alone continuing to feed at the federal trough).NITZAKHONhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04110716447757507226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6557458849091969678.post-2777275755295728332020-12-10T23:55:15.067-05:002020-12-10T23:55:15.067-05:00Highly recommend Jeffrey Prather podcast and Mike ...Highly recommend Jeffrey Prather podcast and Mike Adams situation podcast (naturalnew.com).

Sorry if I used a misleading term. As for why only West Coast, according to Jeffrey Prather (retired DIA special operations officer), they are expecting trouble all over, but distances out West are more vast, and thus existing bases are relatively farther between, thus a need to pre-position a certain amount of materiel from East to West.<br /><br />As I understand it, laws that were enacted in 2015 plus the 2018 Executive order specifically names federal elections as critical infrastructure, and also says a cyberattack on our elections by foreign actors is considered an act of war, and the President has the authority to invoke martial law, and to arrest domestic actors who were involved in it. Regardless which law he invokes, I think it would be a monumental mistake for Trump to just do nothing and allow Biden & Coompany and their CCP handlers to get away with it.George Truehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17352709031834067303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6557458849091969678.post-45827044196698459112020-12-10T12:27:47.978-05:002020-12-10T12:27:47.978-05:00A most interesting comment, Mr. True.

There's no benefit to formations here and I'd put my money on proper staging so that individual aircraft are dispatched in intervals. Receiving installations need time to process arrivals.<br /><br />And why only FOBs on the west coast?<br /><br />Still, I'm disquieted by having heard no other whisper about such movements.<br /><br />I also have my doubts about the Insurrection Act. I've not read it but it seems to me that this is a constitutional crisis of the first order and possibly basing presidential action on a mere statute seems a legal error. Trump made the same mistake (this might be) when he sold his actions on the border, such as they were, as somehow stemming from his authority under various statutory provisions relating to "emergencies." He resolutely avoided basing his actions on Art. IV, Sect. 4 regarding his authority to protect the states from invasion.Col. B.

...I believe one of two things is going to happen: <br /><br />1) SCOTUS will rule in favor of the states, and those electoral votes will not count or will be awarded to Trump. Result - Trump remains President.<br /><br />2) SCOTUS rules against the states and the President invokes the Insurrection Act as well as certain clauses of the 2018 Executive Order. Result - Trump remains President.<br /><br />In either case, the Democrat/Communist party absolutely will order BLM, Antifa, and their various other gangs of Communist revolutionaries to burn the cities, and they will enthusiastically attempt to carry out those orders.<br />In either case, they will fail, and many of them will die and/or be arrested. There will be an entirely different set of Rules of Engagement in effect. Because it will be US Marines and regular Army troops in the streets kerping order, and anyone attempting to throw a Molotov cocktail is going to get shot. And the ones who are arrested will likely be facing military tribunals instead of civilian courts.<br /><br />Since the election, Trump has fired or replaced not only Mark Esper as SecDef, but also a not insignificant number of other high ranking officials at DOD. Over the last four weeks, there has been a massive increase in military air traffic. Just within the last week, there have been nightly formations of C-130's and C-17's, at least sixty or seventy per formation, flying from the Eastern US to places like Nellis AFB in Nevada, and unloading everything needed to establish FOB's (forward operating bases) all over the West Coast.<br /><br />President Trump is waiting for the court cases to play out. I am sure that he hopes that SCOTUS will throw out the obviously and massively fraudulent election, and make the military option unnecessary. But if they do not, I believe that he is prepared and willing to enact the military option. I am pretty sure that he understands very well that allowing a Harris/Biden regime to be installed on 01/20/2021 would be tantamount to turning the rulership of the United States over to the Chinese Communist Party. I do not believe President Trump will allow that to happen.George Truehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17352709031834067303noreply@blogger.com
