Many are trying to hide in military housing. Many are acting as if the voters are coming after them with a rope.
If they believe that what they are doing is so righteous and so popular with the public, why are they panicking?
Their fake bravado is just a charade? They know what they are doing is wrong for the country and wrong for the people.
They just have to see it to believe it.

(10,604 posts)Candace, Tucker, MTG, Fuentes, Matt Gaetz, Bannon, Alex Jones against Mark Levin, Josh hammer, Ted Cruz, Randy Fine etc etc. First group says its about America First or Israel First and Epstein and bombing fishing boats and dead Palestinian babies.
Republicans now HATE each other and are basically threatening each others lives.
Josh Hammer (Senior editor at Newsweek) about Tucker (many took it as a death threat esp saying this after Kirks murder)
The fox is now comfortably ensconced in the hen house, wrote Hammer. And unless the fox is neutralized, the victim could be the entire extant GOP coalition itself.
Mark Levine called Tucker a maggot, smuck and little badtard.
Mark Levin to Republican Jewish Coalition: What Do You Mean We Can't Cancel "Bastard" Tucker Carlson? We Canceled Pat Buchanan
We're surrounded by cowards who have microphones, who have TV cameras, who have websites, who have columns. Cowards. It's spelled C-A-R-L-S-O-N.
It's spelled F-U-E-N-T-E-S. It's spelled O-W-E-N-S. It's spelled B-A-N-N-O-N.
It's spelled Marjorie Trader Greene. You can figure that out yourself. And they're not alone.
How are we going to attack the Mondamis and the Talibs and the Omars and the Sanders and the rest of them when in our own house this poison is spreading? We've got to take care of business. We can fight the enemy on the other side.
Then he called for Tucker to be dealt with (many saying these words could incite crazy people)
THIS DIVISION might be the end of the Republican Party as we know it. Love it when they spend their time attacking each other and NOT attacking Dems. This is great for coming elections.

(973 posts)THE FIRST THING TRUMP DID WAS BRING HIS GESTAPO IN FULL FORCE TO DC......AND HAS KEPT THEM THERE.......
National Guard, U.S. Military, FBI agents, ATF agents, Border Patrol Agents, DEA Agents, all walking the streets with back ups in the shadows, just standing by in case...
He saw what his cult 5,000 followers did to the Capitol, and he wanted to turn DC into a fortress to prevent the same from happening to his CABAL, AND all the Republican Senators, Republican House Members, and his beloved Republican Supreme Court Justices........

If you want to see panic, just wait until after today's elections.

(193,851 posts)I think they start negotiating tomorrow. The BS Moses Mike is peddling sells big in their world
.but nowhere else. Im sure they are getting hounded with calls about Med B, ACA in general, and now SNAP. They thought it was a good tactic to at least stop Spanberger. Trust me, they fear here in the years to come.
That and keeping the Epstein files out of sight as long as possible. Even IF he didnt do the horrible acts, his name is in their and they know he and they will be swimming/drowning in it.
Someone over there was to flip the switch no matter what Trump thinks of it and Mike will take the fall.

(257 posts)Sooner or later (probably later) the courts may start holding Reich ministers responsible for their contemptuous noncompliance. So they want to be somewhere that US Marshals can't scoop them up and haul them before a judge. They may believe that, hunkered down on a military base, they are outside the grasp of civilian authorities as well as No Kings protestors with pitchforks.
