The tighter he grips the reins of power, the more people he turns against him. I think the more he does in this regard, he'll only be empowering No Kings.

Back then information as to what was really going on was limited at first and many service members were drafted. Nowadays information on what was really going is freely available and the military is entirely voluntary. So there is no excuse for anyone in the armed forces to willingly take part in this tyranny.

With an insane president issuing orders best ignored.
We will hate our military and guard for years for aiding and abetting the takedown of our Constitution.
I understand now.
I am so fucking angry I have no fear.
The occupiers have real fear of a J6.
First trigger pull starts Lexington and Concord.

We have three (3!) in our small rural area in northern Wisconsin. Not seen this level of enthusiasm and genuine patriotism since, ever.

There are too many protests all over the country. All Taco has done is to prove the protests are needed.

I'm more concerned about the weather forecast in Hot Springs.

Too afraid to protest the almighty King!
