The FBI Declares War on Patriotism—What Happens Next?
The 10th in a series of messages about where America may be headed following the 2020 election
The inciting incident of a story is the event that causes the main character to take action. In the film Rocky, heavyweight champion Apollo Creed challenges Rocky Balboa to a title fight. Every action that follows in the film is is a result of this inciting incident.
It is my view that at some point, the military will intervene in the Biden administration. Many have argued that this will never happen. Biden is the President, and his people are at the top of the Defense Department. His people will never betray him.
Rocky Balboa was the last person who deserved a shot at the heavyweight title. An unknown journeyman fighter working as an enforcer for a loan shark had no legitimate claim to a title fight. But when Creed’s scheduled opponent injured his hand, and every ranked fighter was unavailable, Rocky was given the opportunity of a lifetime.
The shadow Presidency of Barack Obama (via Joe Biden) is on a collision course. We know this by analyzing Obama’s first two terms in office. He went to great lengths to weaken the military, removing hundreds of patriotic members of the command staff, slashing the Pentagon’s budget, and implementing rules of engagement that put soldiers in a position of disadvantage with respect to their opponents.
Obama, through Biden, is continuing the war against patriots in the military, as evidenced by the recent warning to special forces that if they’re caught posting Pepe the frog memes, they risk being discharged. Banning the use of Pepe memes is laughable, but the war against patriotism goes deeper. The Pentagon has expressed concern about Oathkeepers and Three Percenters—conservative patriot groups whose ranks include active-duty military and law enforcement officers.
In testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee, FBI Director Chris Wray denied there is evidence that leftist groups participated in the January 6th incident at the Capitol. He claims it was not the left that incited insurrection, but the right. Wray said the Bureau views the Capitol incident as an “act of domestic terrorism” and vowed to bring its perpetrators to justice. To fuel the fire, the media are pushing a narrative that conservative groups, particularly militias, represent a clear and present danger to the Biden administration.
The endgame for people like Obama is establishing a borderless global community with people like George Soros at the top. That can only happen if the military becomes subservient to these people and their agenda. As long as there are patriots in uniform who support American sovereignty, that agenda remains out of reach. If globalists are to obtain their goal, the influence of patriots on American culture and their control over the Pentagon must be removed. The current administration would love to disarm patriots by repealing the second amendment, but that will never happen. The current strategy is to criminalize patriotism and put its proponents in prison. That was the subtext of Chris Wray’s testimony before the Senate.
The Biden administration has declared war on patriotism, and the FBI is leading the charge.
And just like that, we have an inciting incident that might compel the military to intervene in the Biden administration.
If the FBI and DOJ harass and prosecute members of the military, law enforcement, and others who work in protective services, over their love of country, they’re asking for a blood bath. Good people will be forced to choose between the lesser of two evils. The Pentagon may not want to step in but they would be foolish to allow the Biden administration to advance this agenda. Do they allow globalists like Obama and John Kerry to neuter the Defense Department and hand over our nation to tyrants when they could put a stop to it?
I’m not saying this will cause the military to intervene, I’m saying that it could. Any of a hundred different scenarios could compel patriots in the military to say enough is enough.

It would seem they would have already done so if indeed they were going too!
Isn’t that like looking at a woman who is 8 months pregnant and telling her, if she were going to deliver her baby she would have already done it?
I think it’s more like a woman who is two weeks past her due date and wondering if that baby will ever come!
A much better analogy than the author’s. Thank you.
One has to remember many are clinging to stories they so desperately held for a long time including white hats were “in control”, even smugly and naively ignoring the crushing blows and dangerous loose ends everywhere, and endless budgets and well conceived impenetrable and weaponized layers of bureaucracy created for just this sort of moment in time….and patient biding of time by the McConnel’s and similar, simply the sheer magnitude of what we are up against. It was a bubble that continued to drag people along while the swamp showed just how powerful it actually is, i.e. it can make the most illogical, bold faced lies and still maintain control over a very malleable, ignorant, populace.
And these folks may have created a bit of a career out of the espousing of theories and their many “deep sources”. Hard to get people to admit when they are wrong when their following and paycheck are driven by their pushing hope while they are actually being used by the disinformation campaigns.
Predictable mathematical equation – how many would simply fall in line – witness covid fake pandemic and people begging like 911 to be saved by the state…..lather, rinse repeat. Lot of naivete and puffery in this movement (driven by celebrity vs a cold hard pursuit of the truth above all else), along with of course tremendous courage and resolve as well. Many are simply having trouble getting beyond being used by their handlers, the illogical hope peddlers that in effect had so many sit on their hands while making excuse after excuse and ignoring actual realities allowing big defeats including for president – everyone knew it was gonna be stolen, but ignored how powerful the deep state and global apparatus is. They simply do not care if you know what they are doing, as its just a numbers game to them.
The good news is there is a movement, and its worldwide and is also a spiritual awakening. Its powerful, but it needs time, and it needs to actually mature quite a bit including realizing this is a long game of resolving the highly conditioned herd-like world populace. Some more good news – the movement can now be more on the offensive. For the last 4 years the movement absorbed constant blows from its enemies, and it takes a toll. People lose faith, and think they are battling an unbeatable force. It celebrated false victories, and expended and exposed itself and its strategies and the swamp swallowed many a great soul. There were too many sleepers illogically not accounted for and it was only a matter of time for those snakes to wield their power and take out those close to Trump or at a minimum render them ineffectual and quickly head back to the status quo of heavy handed big bro while even greatly escalating plans.
Excellent commentary on our situation!
I know that I sure got yelled at and told I had no faith when I pointed out the actual realities and the big defeats over the past couple of years.
I thought that during the 2018 election the white hats were watching and monitoring the illegal election activities and were prepared to counter them during the 2020 Presidential election. Instead, the good guys appear to have been totally unprepared and even taken by surprise. What a crushing and disillusioning disappointment that has been!
Nothing that PM has so logically put forth as a possible next step has ever happened. (And, I’ve agreed with his logic every time, even now!)
We know how this ends. Jesus wins in the end. But, I have concluded, as we’ve been told in the scriptures, none of us knows when the end is! We thought it was near. But, obviously, it wasn’t as near as we thought!
Sometimes GOD wants you to see the real evil exposed before doing something . . . we have put ourselves in this position by allowing the Democrats & RINOs to lie and placate us. Now is the time to strike . .. Soon just keep praying
There is only one “white hat” and He is in control! So having faith in Him, and trusting Him, is the only way to get through this mess our nation is in. His will be done on earth as it is in heaven. He is the way, the truth, and the life. There is a spiritual awakening occuring in our nation that could only come out of the encroaching darkness and despair we patroits feel about our circumstances.
After reading this whole testimony, taken down for Lin Woods, if it isn’t enough for you and all Patriots to rise up and start marching on DC and Remove these bastards once and for all I don’t know what it’s going to take. We can’t allow this to go on any longer. WE THE Patriots of this country MUST do it our selves. They are all corrupt, there is no good left in DC. No justice, nor military. It has all failed. We the Patriots will not fail. If it take 3 million or ten million, We will keep coming until they are all gone for good. …Here is the transcript, I suggest you down load it and share it everywhere. Please………https://populist.press/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/FULL-Transcript-of-Whistleblower-Interview.pdf
Are YOU going to rise up and start marching on DC? I have read you and many others say that things are so bad that others should march on DC or pick up guns or some other serious direct action. But I don’t see those calling for it actually going out and doing it themselves. Are you waiting for others to do it so you don’t have to?
You can bet I would be, if I wasn’t facing knee replacement soon. Like I said, there needs to be millions show up to demand action. You haven’t listened to what was said/implied by Dave. The military will not take action, if we don’t show up and make them. Time to do it, we/re burning daylight.
Biden individual will be gone before 25th invoked. Then Harris.
Trump, Mastriano will lead the way as a Momarchidt-Republic emerges in 21-22.
Get ready.
God will not be mocked.
Shut up Martha
You shut up Jorge, you impotent little worm..
Fight nice
Agreed. It pains me to see this country slip further and further into utter decay. Enough is enough. Let’s go Military. Peace out.
We should always do what needs to be done locally.
I’d like to put my money on the military as well…if I lose we lose the country so no loss.
The problem is that we have the example of Germany pre-WWII to inform probable outcomes. Oathkeepers and 3-percenters are being made out as boogeymen and the unwashed masses, being spoon-fed by the MSM, will sleep as they are destroyed. As to the military, Obama has already shown that they can be defanged from the inside making them little more than brownshirts. Will the military allow that to happen a second time (or are they still there)? We’ll see.
Praying Medic, I would like to request you do an analysis on the classic 1961 Milgrim Study on Obedience. Bernard Milgrim’s shocking (excuse the pun) discoveries on how easy it is for authority figures to convince people to comply with directives from authority figures, even if those actions seemingly injured or even killed another human being were hilarious, but sobering. And the COVID campaign shows clearly the relevance of those findings today. We are watching an entire nation complying with the directives of a White Smock Guy (Anthony Fauci) even as his directives become more and more absurd.
The full 1962 documentary (and shorter condensed versions) is available on YouTube, but unfortunately, not on Rumble.
We, as a People, are almost at the precipice. Some of the military at the top have already capitulated ie Milley, Austin and I’m sure there are others. However, I am convinced, there are other Patriots unnamed at this time who will step up. Maybe this is devolution.
Whether a million men & women in uniform have caved to wokeism remains to be seen.
I can assure you that 20 million American veterans have not.
What is the ultimate deterrent to lawlessness?
I would love this to be true.. But from what my concervative military friends have told me, there are many in the military that hate Trump and are extremely liberal. I have personally seen this in my relationships with military pilots and so many pilots in the airlines that come from the military. Don’t get me wrong I have also seen the exact opposite. I pray that truth honor, integrity and love for our country prevail. A Constitutional Republic cannot survive without integrity. And the USA and it’s citizens have become very corrupt.
Tony, if the true results of the last election are any indication of the USA and its citizens….then America has spoken quite clearly that corruption and left wing plans heading toward socialism/communism need to be halted.
I do agree with you that American have been heading off course in what you called corruption. I can see the merry path we have blindly followed in the past couple of decades. But from what I have seen there is a strong resurgence of patriotism toward upholding the constitution, and a realization of how much God means to this country. Hope this helps.
Thanks Kathi!
Resurgence of patriotism is great, but by itself is not enough!! ACTION is what is needed. I personally have never seen such apathy among friends and acquaintances! Too many are trying to pretend none of this is really happening. People just want things to become “normal” again and seem to think what is and has been happening will just pass away. They are drinking the leftist kool-aid. Maybe by the time they wake up it will be too late. Personally, I’m going to learn Spanish as fast as I can.
Learning Mandarin Chinese might be more useful.
Well Trump did say the virus will just “disappear” – maybe they are hoping he was giving us an accurate clue: just sit back and watch the show?
Wake the hell up people. The judicial has failed us and so has the military, and for damn sure the legislative has.It is time for all Partiots who are able bodied enough to march, to start marching to DC about 2-3 million, or 10 million more if it takes it, and take this country back. This is life and death, and this has gone on long enough. You want some proof of how corrup DC is and how deep the swamp’s control is just read this transcript. If you blood doesn’t boil them go hide somewhere. I’m an old crippled woman, but I can still shoot, just get me close…….https://populist.press/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/FULL-Transcript-of-Whistleblower-Interview.pdf
Good to read your thoughts, I’m at a loss of how this will all pan out but I just keep praying and keeping my eyes on Jesus. Not easy though…
God plays a great joke on those who would seek after power at any cost. – C. S. Lewis
God will make it clear that He is the One who will do the “canceling”! Watch them implode from the inside out as the saints petition the Holy One!
Erza you are not a believer KEEP PRAYING, you may be asking for the wrong thing!!
Jesus said “Pray without ceasing”.. “Love your enemies, pray for those who persecute you”.. If we are called to pray for our enemies, then NEVER STOP praying for anything or anyone, you love..
Amen Will.
Sorry, but you are completely wrong on this one. Wray did NOT point fingers at us, he was neutral. He said he had not seen any evidence, very different. Wray said that whoever perpetrated the attack on the Capitol was guilty of Domestic Terrorism. That will be useful later on. I believe Wray is a sleeper. We’ll have to see of course.
Thanks for what you do.
Wray is scum, same as Bill Barr. They say they saw nothing, but we have seen the evidence.
You are probably right and I agree. That said, I am praying that this is part of the plan? Allowing the traitor’s to feel secure and then drop the hammer.. There’s so much false information floating around that it’s impossible to tell what in real and what if propaganda? God Help us! Please….
Tis but a pipedream that the military will intervene.
The only way forward would be a redux of April 19, 1775. Citizen Patriots leading the charge to take back our country.
That is the most likely inciting incident that would cause the military to intervene.
You’ve got a cool head Dave, I appreciate you..
PM, if a redux of April 19, 1775 would be the inciting incident for the military to intervene, the question then becomes which side would they back? The Patriots or the Deep State? Their oath should be the driving force, but I have begun to lose faith their commitment to their oath.
Enemies of the Constitution are running rampant, and the military sits on its hands.
Myanmar’s military, on the other hand, took decisive action in the face of their country’s election shenanigans…
Then what are we waiting on? It is way past time to rise up and start marching by the millions to DC and take our country back. Do you need proof of the total corruption? Here it is…….https://populist.press/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/FULL-Transcript-of-Whistleblower-Interview.pdf
Dave I don’t understand messages to trust Sessions, trust Wray and last message Durham?
So while we wait unverified aliens are released into US, Babies die. I’m heart sick with grief.
As Sidney Powell states on telegram, our 3 branches of government have been completely compromised and corrupted. Is this also the case with the military? There are many data points that indicate that this is true, and that patriots in our military leadership are now the minority. If so, we are down to an act of God as the only thing that can save us.
Frank B, they have indeed been corrupted, but not irredeemably so. Please watch comments and sermons of Tim Dixon. I think he’s been given words of knowledge, and is worth your listening.
I have been told in a similar manner that we are near the start of Tribulation, but have no idea when it will start; only that it will commence sometime before the end of April 2025.
God is still upon His throne, and prayer changes things!
Seapilot
Such a positive soul you are..
God has promised to save His people through the triblulations of the end times. If We the Patriots don’t rise up and demand justice, we will be in those end times shortly. Time for us to act, not sit back and wait on someone else to save us. And yes keep praying night and day!
A word fitly spoken… is like apples of gold… in pictures of silver… Thank YOU!
This is like watching a pot of water on the stove waiting fit it to boil. What is it going to take. I have the parience of Job but seriously…..
That’s not all he did, he actually praised people that after they put out the call, turned in family members. He actually acknowledged what brave people they were to turn in their family members. I just wonder after this have any of these guys heard of a country called Iran where the state police and the IRNG actually create an environment of fear (its how a small group of tyrants control a large population) by getting people to rat on each other. This is not good folks. We are way past Orwell at this point. And I hate to say it but one of Trump’s biggest mistakes was not firing this guy Chris Wray. I dont believe the man is even complex or a complex thinker, he is simply a yes man for whoever the powers that be are and he will do anything the far left tell him to do. We are living in dangerous times.
Praying Medic, I have a serious question that I hope you’ll answer. Your prediction of a military takeover (perhaps unseating Biden and overseeing a new election) is a reasonable one and you may or may not be correct. At what point would we know if your prediction was not correct? 6 months from now? A year? Four years? At what point and under what circumstances would you say, “Ok, I guess I was wrong about the military stepping in”?
Since I was given no timeline by God, I cannot give you an end date.
hahaha
To all dissenters;
Think as though we are living in the year 1775. April 19th has just passed.
Should we be negative on the outcome of our future? Or positive?
Should we complain and use words like; never, can’t, won’t, defeated, tired, done, finished? Or positive words like;
“It can be done! It will be done! No Retreat! No Surrender!
Take a deep breath, pray without ceasing…
With God, all things are possible!
Luke 1:37
Will
Gods will, always..
I still like DC Draino’s idea.
A. Trump runs for a House seat in ’22 and wins. B. The House is taken back by Republicans and
C. Trump takes over as Speaker (just because). D. The Senate goes back to Republican.
House impeaches BIDEN – over everything. Senate will have to convict.
Then they go after Kami and impeach. Senate will have to convict.
Trump becomes President…
Downside: I’d get fat eating all the popcorn it would take to watch all this fun.
When Trump was still Commander-in-Chief he could have lawfully ordered the military to act. Many here were certain that he would, but for whatever reason he did not. Now Biden, by law, is President and Commander-in-Chief. Any action taken by the military that is not ordered by him or at least ordered by an Act of Congress is unlawful. I am 99% sure that the Joint Chiefs will not permit such an unlawful act. Not because they are closet Liberals, but because they understand their Constitutional duty. And if any junior officers or subset of the military illegally tries to take matters into their own hands, the Joint Chiefs and the FBI will act to stop and arrest them as they should.
Those who are rooting for a revolution are free to do so, but I will stick with the rule of law that has guided our nation for its beginning. I don’t trust revolutions and I especially don’t trust self-appointed revolutionaries. It almost never goes well.
My view: Be humble, taking care not to mistake one’s political beliefs and wishes for God’s Will.
A Revolution created this country. The rule of law was great until politicians, judges, etc. started to ignore it. Democrat ran states don’t even abide by Supreme Court decisions. The only “laws” democrats care about are the ones they’re pushing through to enslave us. The election was obviously stolen, and the constitution is a smoldering rag. The military is most definitely obligated to step up to defend her.
Barry- The Constitutional Rule of Law ended when Trump left the WH. The Biden Regime is based on clear Fraud coupled with conspiracy in cooperation with Nations hostile to the USA and hence is illegitimate. At this point the USA has no Constitutional government.
Meanwhile they are playing in the Middle East which is starting to fire at our troops and get them killed – just when everything had calmed down…
I think we need a Red Sea moment. God is the only one who can save this country. I hope in his mercy he will.
OR MAYBE Red C, as in China. Parting of the Red C = Xi Jinping Vs. Jiang Zemin.
Insiders say there’s been a power struggle between these 2 behind the scenes, so that what we think is a big strong unified country, is actually an unstable giant. Apparently, Jiang Zemin has been running sort of like the Chinese version of our deep state. Xi is a more moderate leader than we’re being lead to believe. It appeared that he and Trump were ~friendly. Xi is just a nationalist and has taken advantage, albeit aggressively, of American weakness. God’s hand in this?
What happened in the Bible with the parting of the Red Sea? It swallowed up the ‘power’ of Egypt. Egypt was thee world [global] power at that time. God marched his people through the midst of the sea, safely to the other side, to then stand and watch their Egyptian oppressors be swallowed up by the very sea that facilitated their wealth. A parallel?
It’s been apparent for some time that all the power players in DC, Sports, H-wood and academia are bought out by the CCP. Our government leaders have been selling US out. The MSM is, too. They’ve been managing the image of China – we’re being told how big and imposing that China is. Maybe their really a paper tiger Vs. the Lion of Judah. No match. Fear not.
If Biden was really the legitimate president he would not be attacking Patriots. These are the actions of an unlawful occupation government attempting to forestall a countercoup.
Need to fix the election laws at the state level first.
That is being done here in Arizona.
As I understand it, HR1 is being pushed now, and it legalizes voter fraud! If that’s true and it passes in Congress, it is supposed to usurp/override all state election laws. People need to protest to their congressman and senators regarding that, tell them to vote against it … and HR 5 as well, which will end religious freedom. The MSM is not reporting this, and the vast numbers of apathetic citizens won’t know about it.
I truly hope you are correct.
Two Star General of NG in DC states, we are here for a Smooth Transition to Military Power!
Why would Trump Risk everything just to walk away and place his Entire Family, Friends, Patriots in Harms Way?
These two things have given me hope. When I heard him say it live my heart jumped.
Grammar maven here: In ‘graph 5, should be through, not though. In ‘graph 7, “If they’re to obtain their,” it’s not clear to me as I read who “they” is. I’m not a great writer, but those types of things pop out at me.
Thanks, as always, Dave.
Thank you. Corrections made.
I agree with you, Larry W. The military has been in charge for awhile. Trump is still our President. The flags at CPAC confirmed that. No gold fringe. An eagle at the top, which is only used in war time for the President. We are at war; have been, only it’s an informational war so many people still do not realize it. God is in control, and we need to continue in prayer for our military who are dealing with unbelievable situations that we still do not fully know about. When God decides, our constitutional republic will be brought out into the open. The corporation of the UNITED STATES is defunct, and the Bidan presidency is totally illegitimate. Stay in prayer for God’s will to be done in his time.
I think we need to consider the events in Myanmar.
Also not to forget that removal of Biden is just a matter of time as he clearly unfit mentally to be President.
He cannot even read from teleprompter.
I’m with you, Larry W. Things definitely appear bleak, that patriots have completely lost control of America, and America is on the road now to an authoritarian socialist system. HOWEVER…. there are just a lot of things going on that appear (on the outside anyway) to contradict that scenario, like the things you mentioned. That, and there are a MAJORITY of Americans that do not agree with the direction that the elites in power are taking the country. And that majority is or is becoming armed and willing to resist. November 2020 I think was a turning point in American conciousness. Is it too late? I don’t think so, not yet. There are still smart patriots in positions of power and leadership out there. Time is running short, but my prayer is that there is yet a plan in place to at least start the ball rolling with the majority of Americans to provide the momentum.
I agree that the military is the only way to go although I am not sure how it will play out. I do think that things are coming to a boiling point soon. Thanks for all you do and I am so glad that I can keep following you after the great purge on twatter. Thanks also for being the link that found Bards of War again, I had followed him but lost him. I now listen to his podcasts daily and he gives me so much hope and inspiration.
Anyone think Q will ever post again?
If not what do you think happened to him?
If it’s nothing or irrelevant, why does the MSM still bring it up as a topic of discussion, my local Bay Area news station just did yesterday.
You ask Why did he stop posting? I would ask why would he have ever posted? I have a hard time believing that someone would spend 3 years of his life posting over 5000 messages just for a laugh starting on the same day Durham was appointed and all the while fooling millions of people worldwide who to this day can’t say who Q was. Q never said Trump would win a second term. Q never said when the plan would come to fruition.
someone who would do that would want to be known publicly. not do it and then hide in the shadows and not get the attention they were seeking.
Maybe it’s just me, but I think every one of Biden’s exec orders is a big highlighter arrow to all of the things that need to be changed or eliminated in the system that the ‘elites’ have been taking advantage of. Everything they try to change in their favor is creating a wonderful blueprint of where we need to plug the holes. Just keep a list of everything and voila!, a plan to create a better world and hopefully restore the balance of good and evil. 😉
Good words. I stand with you.
Denial does nothing to the truth, it remains open and in your face to accept or reject, unchanged and waiting for us to come around.
Commentors with no background in strategy and game theory are disillusioned because they can’t fathom what is going on behind the scenes. This is a good thing, as despite their great support and positive intentions, they would blow the entire cover just to win a trolling argument online. Put away your egos. We are not in the intelligence community, we won’t know everything as it happens because we are civilians. Intelligence is like exercise, if you do not work at it regularly, you will passively absorb and adopt false realities pushed by fiction factories of the msm news and social media. They push common sense as more ‘common’ than ‘sense’.
If we knew the exact strategy to take down the deep state cabal, then they cabal would also know that strategy.
This is bigger than our family dynamics, our political affiliations, and our faith in a movement. Losing hope does not negate the truth, it will always be there to see when we stop living in denial and expecting outcomes we have invented to make oursleves feel better about this chaos.
To be clear, there are so many clues as to the illegitamcy of the US administration falling apart at the seams trying to play a role on the world stage, if you don’t see it then you are actively chosing to deny the truth. I wish those people to owe it to themselves and their families to critically think outside the media box of eternal distraction.
If you cannot remain hopeful on faith alone, then look to your principles and philosophy to bare the storm we are in.
Storms are violent and scary, but they always end when they run out of energy, just like the cabal.
Just my humble assertion.
My “faith” is in God ONLY. Not some plan or strategy that may or may not be true. So far there is no proof of this plan. The swamp has not been drained, no one has been imprisoned or prosecuted or persecuted except the white hats. Swamp creatures are doubling down and causing real pain and real destruction in this country. If there is a plan, it better happen in the near future because the swamp has very evil plans for us “terrorists” that will reverse our country forever. As it stands now, our constitutional republic is on life support with little hope of survival.
Lots of interesting discussions on the depth and power of the Deep State.
The way I see it, to really understand why the Deep State seems to have such a powerful grip on America, we have to understand a classic behavioral psych study from the early 1960s, conducted by Yale University prof. Bernard Milburn: the Milburn Study on Obedience. The original documentary filmed in 1963 is available on YouTube (and Rumble, I hope), in both it’s original 45-minute length and a condensed version.
In brief, Milgram was troubled at how easily the general populace of Germany in the 1930s and 1940s were induced into following the NAZI extermination campaign against European Jews. So he did a classic study of how people would respond to authority figures, even if faced with apparently doing increasingly-severe harm to another human being. So he set up a test, in which one person would administer a test to another person, supposedly to test the second person’s ability to think and learn if faced with a painful consequence — in this case, a (faked) shock of stronger and stronger voltages as punishment for a wrong answer to a series of a-or-b questions.
Amusingly, the person being “shocked” was pretending to be shocked, and the real test subject was the person delivering the test questions and the fake shocks!
Prior to the study, Dr. Milgram hypothesized that the vast majority of “testers” would balk at the idea of harming the “test subject.” But to his surprise, nearly all the “testers” complied with the directives to continue the test, even after the “learner” stopped responding, as if he’d died!
The conclusion is that people are far more compliant with Authority Figures than we’d like to admit.
This is the basis of the power of the Deep State.
I hope I am wrong and you are right but I fear the left has already been way too successful in purging the military of patriotic leadership. Consider the retired generals who have come out as Never Trumpers such as Matis, Kelley, McCrystal, etc and certainly last but not least is this “nut case” Honore who Pelosi tapped to do a “security review. I don’t see how the military could not have been seriously tainted by these “creeps”. The new Secretary Of Defense, Austin, a retired general, seems to be “cut from the same cloth” as the others.
And then there’s the story of Stalin plucking a live chicken…
Believe in Q or not, at least it served to wake many of us out of naivety.
Didn’t Trump believe in ‘Q’? Guess he was faked out, too. Pity
Wow!!!! I’m so with you my friend!!!! Praying and standing!
Conservative Military and patriots together could get it done. Liberals are mostly wimps and don’t see the benefit of owning guns. So together we’ve got this. Where do we sign up?
The Senate, Congress and the White House must agree with you otherwise why the barbed wire and fencing?
Dave, what do you think of this video? https://youtu.be/9nklJn875-w
There’s so much going on that doesn’t make sense right now. I have good friends who’ve started going down the crazier “QAnon” rabbit holes and you can’t convince them that Trump’s not still in power. I’ve felt for a while now that the goal all along has been to divide us and we’ve played right into their trap.
This is very important to share if you haven’t seen it yet. Proof of the DC evil….https://populist.press/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/FULL-Transcript-of-Whistleblower-Interview.pdf
This is scary language and should give pause to a lot of people, what exactly is “Extremism”? I suppose it depends on who you ask, it’s something subject to opinion and can be loosely defined to encompass anyone/everyone who disagrees with you. Our country is absolutely polarized, each side views the other as Extreme and Crazy, so I guess my question is ” If this really is a big problem why wasn’t it addressed during the Obama administration?”
Read the press releases for yourself, the only example Austin has given in reference to Extremist is……. White Supremacist. No mention of Antifa, no mention of BLM, no mention of MS13, just the white folks.
It is clear who this is targeting, Trump supporters, and conservatives who likely do not see Racism, Climate Change, or COVID as the 3 biggest threats to the country. They would probably include an entirely different list:
– The forcefully denial of individual rights by local and state Government.
– The propaganda machine of the news and the censorship of free speech.
– The violent, anti-government mobs of ANTIFA and BLM destroying Americans property.
– The elected officials who betrayed their Oaths of Office and continue to block transparency regarding the election, along with every
Judge including SCOTUS refusing to look into a crime committed against American voters.
^ If anyone in the DoD expresses concerns about the second list, their ass is grass.
Austin mentioned that a few weeks ago he asked the services to conduct a one-day stand-down and gave them 60 days to provide a top-to-bottom review of extremism. “As I conduct that stand-down, I’ve encouraged [leaders] to have a dialogue with their troops about our values, about the oath of office they took when they came into the service, and about who we are and what we’re about,” he said.
“This is also a time for us to educate leaders in terms of understanding those signs and symptoms that can indicate that we could be developing an issue within our ranks,” he added.
