Not this **** again.

Same thing was said for the 2018 mid-terms and the 2020 election. It happened neither time.

Such delusion.

Sounds like you think we should have censored Charlie to keep him safe - odd.

Well I agree with the OP: I think the Insurrection Act is going to be implemented too.

There currently are far too many crazy people in our country. It seems like we have an epidemic of insanity. Sadly, with all the inflammatory rhetoric filling the media, it is just a question of time before one of the crazies starts shooting at ICE/DHI personnel or planting bombs, and subsequently multiple people will be killed/injured. It's a powder keg with a fuse, just waiting for someone to light it...and the immediate response will be the Insurrection Act to bypass the judicial lawfare and Democrat political interference.

Progressive groups in Portland and Chicago are working with local governments including police departments to actively ignore or ASSIST in attacks against the DHS, ICE, and CBP.

It's an actual insurrection….agreeing with OP is a bad look and OP is a troll

President says he "may" do something, liberals (and the OP) act like it was already done and part of his master plan all along.

This is why attempting to have a serious discussion about politics is extremely difficult

Trump saying he may invoke the Insurrection Act because of the Portland situation.

I knew this was always the plan. If not right here, right now, then very soon.

Gather the generals, warn them of the "enemy from within" - I predicted this too. This exact phrase.

From that article:
Quote:

Trump told reporters in the Oval Office he did not yet see the need to use the Insurrection Act, but "if I had to enact it, I'd do it, if people were being killed and courts were holding us up, or governors or mayors were holding us up.


Did not yet see the need

but IF people were being killed.

Question what would you want POTUS to do if federal buildings attacked and people killed?

And I went to the Notre Dame game and stayed in Chicago. It was awesome. Clean, no homeless, no cops on corners. Went from downtown to Wrigleyville and bar hopped in between. I understand South Chicago is a different area, much like parts of Dallas in San Antonio and other major cities. But downtown Chicago was very impressive.

You do realize that 27 people were shot, 4 murdered, in Chicago that weekend, right?

That's what they call a slow weekend.

What are they resisting?

At what point does a peaceful public demonstration become a lynch mob?

It only requires one nut job, with a loud voice or bullhorn, to inspire the remaining passionate believers to go through with a lynching and kill someone. History as recent as this month has taught us this! Democratic leaders have demonstrated this with their rhetoric.

Where did I say anything about dangerous per capita? Dude I mocked said Chicago didn't have any crime or homelessness problems or any filth because he bar hopped in Wrigleyville for a couple hours.


Sweet, so we agree that Chicago is relatively safe for a large US city. Carry on.

Do black lives matter or not? I think they do, and that all people should live in peace and safety. Defense of the citizenry is one of the few legitimate functions of our government.

Your justifications of all the murders and violence seem to indicate you feel differently.

I have a best friend that lives in Portland. The city isn't burning down. The crazy area is a block or two and locals know to stay away. Just like Houston or Dallas or any other city.

oh. It's only a block or two. That's nice. But the pictures and videos seen online everyday are real. Why is that acceptable? Anarchists are blockading a federal building and attacking federal employees while the city of Portland does nothing- allows it and encourages it. Is it really acceptable for the federal government to do nothing to protect its own people and property? Should the feds have zero recourse against state and local governments who sit back and allow violence like that?

what you have to keep in mind OP is that this is the behavior of a fundamentally weak administration. they're underwater on just about every issue, know that their window to live out their power fantasy is limited, and are overcompensating by making hollow shows of force/projections of strength to mask their incompetence.


Is that why you keep losing elections?

trump won on the economy and is now underwater on it. the silly strongman theatrics are a poor attempt at distraction from this.

That doesn't appear to be what brought the Center left over when you look at their remarks. It was the degenerate agenda, open borders, and the clear bent toward statist authoritarianism for all the MSM's pointing at Trump. Businesses saw what was coming and the extent of federal control. In other words, all the anti-Americanism of the Bidenites.

The irony is if the Dems had just ditched the Bidenite/Schumer double-down they could pull a Bill Clinton. But they are reinforcing the Marxist message with the ones the MSM is propping up like Crockett.



Because I oppose Trump doesn't mean I liked or supported Biden.

won't see a difference between people getting hunted down and spending a year + in prison for the crime of taking a selfie at the Capitol on 1/6 vs these antifa people starting fires, throwing Molotov cocktails, attacking federal employees, etc. over and over again and never being punished over the course of years as they've grown. They wanted the J6ers executed for daring to be angry about an obviously Fd up election, but want nothing to happen to antifa anarchists and for them to keep attacking because it's only a block or two or it's only ICE officers doing their jobs enforcing our existing laws that the people elected them to do.

You are getting off topic with that weak sauce, so I'll keep it brief. All crime is bad, but we should focus on cities with high per capita crime rates.

Mark it? And when you're wrong? What will you do?

You leftists are certainly off to a great initial 8 months of this Presidency.

You said we'd be at war with the Middle East and Russia after striking Iranian enrichment facilities.

You said that women would lose all rights and be in chains.

You said that there would be concentration camps throughout the country.

You cheer on the assassinations and attempted assassinations of people you disagree with politically.

You ignore, lie about and then try to justify the attacks on law enforcement, including doxxing, ramming them with cars, assault and now bounties on their lives.

Now there's going to be national marial law in a few months and I guess elections will be suspended.

I'm sure you'll get it right this time with that impressive leftist track record.

I guess I should have further explained that it isn't "ok". My point was more directed to the hyperbole of scale and what thresholds we expect our federal government to use in any of these instances (which all are different between DC, Chicago, Memphis, Portland and others). For the record, unlawfulness is not ok. Neither is crime (violent or otherwise). Sorry if my initial comment made it sound like I was ok with any of it.

It's more about discussing the considerations of the response to these illegal actions.

About 20 cops could and should clean that mob up. I'd haul them all to jail personally.

But that decision should be made locally, and it should be done by police, not the military.

If the people of the questionably great state of Oregon want to allow this, then it's not the feds' job to step in.

this might be the only thing that saves republicans in the midterms. the democrats are feckless cowards with no identity or strategy, and even their voters know it. unless they change course, even trump's abysmal favorability may not be enough to give them a win.

Then it should be federal police, not military, and limited to defending federal property.

Military action on US soil against citizens must remain a last resort, when large groups are in true, open and violent rebellion.

Can you provide a list of topics that Trump is underwater on?

for starters, on each of these his approval is in the 30s and disapproval in the 50s-60s:

inflation & cost of living
overall economy
tariffs & trade
transparency (epstein records)

Come on now. You really have to do better than that.
inflation & cost of living - inflation currently is trivial compared to the Biden years
overall economy - stock market at an all-time high
trade and tariffs - trillions and trillions of $$$ of new manufacturing investments in the US because of tariffs
transparency- Tulsi has released boatloads of documents: JFK assassination records, Russiagate records,
MLK assassination records. And you know darn well that it's Democrat judges who are refusing to release the real Epstein records.
this is actually emblematic of the problem. the only way you could possibly argue trump has improved the economy is to be completely detached from reality with nonsense like this.
