Interesting idea:

By Monday, the New York Times will be running a story about how Trump had the Ark of the Covenant

The term Rubicon has come up repeatedly in reference to the Mar al Lago search/raid. When Caesar crossed the Rubicon in 49 BC he was defying the existing government, and could only survive by taking power. Our regime can only survive by maintaining power. The illegalities are piling up. This is just one more. We for our part must refrain from from violence and all illegalities. With effort and determination we can and will win in November. We don't have to win them all. 218 out of 435 will do. MAGA.

What about voter fraud? It's going to be so bad in Nov that it will make 2020 look like a minor infringement.

Midterm elections are local. One County cannot get you a State. Most MAGA Counties they won't waste resources trying. The borderline ones....the locals will have to be vigilant. In our favor, so to speak, is that things are terrible and will only be worse in November.

The Nuclear Threat was something used to frame / destroy a political party in a Jerry Pournelle Novel. It's amazing to see it in real life.

IRS agents will be going after the middle class when the middle class is hit with a big tax increase. My opinion. The increases will drive the middle class into the black market and the agents are to stop that.

They need trillions a year to feed the global governance and make war with the resisters.

I've seen it mentioned elsewhere and tend to agree, the IRS expansion is to go after guns. Isn't tax evasion a felony? I admit I did not read the recent red flag law, but I do believe they are connected. Remember the job posting was recently changed to remove the deadly force language. Under what other circumstance are you guilty until proven innocent?

For those of us who are rational, we already know the truth. Innocent until proven guilty doesn't work in this case. An action of this sort needs to be predicated. Anybody heard anything reasonable yet?

I copied the following two paragraphs relative to the ongoing fishing expedition from Zerohedge just now.

The documents, which are expected to be unsealed later Friday after the Justice Department sought their public disclosure amid relentless attacks by Trump and his GOP allies, underscore the extraordinary national security threat that federal investigators believed the missing documents presented. The concern grew so acute that Attorney General Merrick Garland approved the unprecedented search of Trump’s estate last week.

Taylor Budowich, a spokesperson for Trump, said the FBI’s move was “not just unprecedented, but unnecessary -- and now they are leaking lies and innuendos to try to explain away the weaponization of government against their dominant political opponent. This is outrageous.” -Politico

Fro my part I would like to remind everybody that a stolen election is an "extraordinary national security threat." Anybody concerned? Not all Washington, apparently.

It's all meaningless until we learn more of the particulars. I'll say right up front it's BS. It's the continuing coup.

I don’t think Garland “knows” anything! He always looks remarkably ashen-faced and at a loss for anything resembling integrity. I think its his Deputy, Lisa Monaco, Obama NSC advisor and otherwise Russia Russia/J6 confab operator, who is pulling the strings…but she is behind the scenes!

Lest we forget, Democrats first ran an IRS play to stifle the Tea Party after 2010 in preparation for 2012, delaying approval of 501C4 applications and a few high-level audits, as of True the Vote, to choke off organized opposition to the ruling party.
