What do you do when you can’t win elections legally — raid political opponents homes…

Excerpt:
"A few perspectives on the FBI Raid of Mar-a-Lago that we didn’t hear on the ABC news tonight.

The word of the day is “Banana Republic”

There are two legal systems in the US now. If you’re on the same team as the Regime, the FBI will happily go slow on your laptop investigation, even if it implicates past Vice Presidents, and potential Presidential candidates and in an election year and on matters of national security. Likewise, using private servers while being Secretary of State and getting a subpoena and bleaching 33,000 emails. That’s OK too.
...
Assuming that voting still matters, and Trump and his supporters are not in jail, this will turn Trump into an icon.
...
But was this more about provoking Trump supporters rather than just erasing Trump? If Trump supporters “take the bait” and do five percent of what the George Floyd fans did, that will be a handy excuse for the FBI to hike up the “War on Domestic Terrorism”. Beware, the brazen injustice of it may be the point."

    Maybe that really is the point. To get everyone fighting so they can justify Martial Law. How much of a powder keg is America right now? Would the Con-man-der in Chief toss a lit match at it all for fun, or upon orders? It's either that or just misdirection to distract us from what's really going on. Which is almost always stealing.

    Yes. The raid on Trump was to distract from the Inflation Inflation Act, H.R. 4346. 393 pages. A double purpose. They can distract us from the Tax bill, and score Democrat points.

    I have lost all confidence and trust in our government, period. That said, outright defiance of the government will result in your destruction. Pick your fights, and in the meantime hope that the left will regulate and tax so much that the economy will simply collapse as it did in AS.
    Its becoming more and more difficult to actually know all the laws, let alone abide by them. Best to just live your life quietly in plain sight like GUS in Breaking Bad.

    A Banana Republic in all the ways the matter except the bananas.
    I’m not saying go hard. But, if this is bait, and you go so hard at it that you pull the rod and reel right out of the back of the damned boat, you’ve still got a hook in your mouth.
    For those of us of a more calm mindset....do exactly what Term2 says. Let the whole rotten house of cards fall in by itself.
    This nation WILL implode. It is inevitable. You can’t play fast and loose with Keynesian economics this long and not have a collapse.
    If “The People” truly realized how “money” comes into being they would oppose taxation.
    It’s a bunch of oligarchs that get access to the capital before anyone else. It’s created out of debt. Stop buying stuff with debt.

      I certainly agree that it's a house of cards and that the way money is created from nothing
      (to benefit only the bankers and deep state) would anger any rational person, but I'd love
      to find a quicker and more expeditious way to regain liberty.

      A collapse and recovery will take longer than many of us have left to live.
      Recovery without the guidance of those who have experienced liberty
      and truly understand its values will have a much lower chance of success, too.

    Yeah, looks like it. That's what they did the other day, isn't it? (Answer to question above: "What do you when you can't win elections legally? Raid political...?")

    The biggest message (which is somewhat arrogant) is that we can take out anyone who doesn't obey, or who dares resist, so don't even think about opposing us. Fascist states that feel they've reached the tipping point keep upping the gain to test the people's will to object, so they can quickly squash any potential resistance before it could overthrow them.

    I feel even stronger in my conviction we will not see elections this Fall. The move against Trump is an attempt to create an angry reaction, and any mass protest will be characterized as an "insurrection," no matter if it's non-violent or not, in an attempt to justify a national emergency that demands elections be delayed "until the insurrectionists (who will most likely be Trump-endorsed candidates) are rooted out and detained to prevent bloodshed."

    We here in my town are of the "lie low and wait" faction, prepared as much as possible for the previously unthinkable. We are surely on that list, so our prep may be for aught, but we have to try to keep this country true to its roots. Why assign just one reason for the Mar a-Lago raid? Yes, they are throwing their arrogance in our faces, yes they are hoping to find something they can use to keep the Donald from running, yes they are hoping to ignight a firestorm they can quash, yes they are quietly adding every so-called traitorous commentary to their rapidly expanding list, and yes I believe they will push and push until something gives that will let them declare martial law before the 2024 elections. Keep your heads down if you can, but I suspect we're already marked for Camp FEMA.

    Listened intently to Marco Rubio last night on Fox News. He said if Republicans win and retaliate this is exactly what happens in the Banana Republics and the reason they left the countries. I hope that the backlash, especially from the Latino population, removes the morons from Congress and then we take the higher ground. I suspect this would solidify the conservative movement for generations to come. At least this is which I pray. Time will tell. I am still buying more ammo. Brass is best.

      Praying won't get it done because the GOP is listening to the Deep State, same as the Dems.
      If there is an election, and if the GOP gets a majority of both houses, they will do a few minor
      things that pay lip service to promises made that got them elected. They will do nothing of any
      consequence to restore liberties to the People.
      I think we need to find defenses against recent non-lethal weapons that the feds can use
      against any resistance before it's too late.

        Trump is endorsing successfully MAGA candidates
        Nation wide. This is to destroy the uniparty’s lock on our government. Vote for every one that you can who is MAGA. Everyone needs to vote, red wave to a tsunami.
