Insurrection Act declared Saturday night?

Is it really happening this time? For serious? No more wait for tomorrow or the next day?

I think this story originated on a British website. I wouldn't put to much stock into it, considering how much the Brits like Trump and their supporters.

I could point out how dumb this theory is but instead I'll say this:

I have a close friend whose husband's unit was the only unit called up over the summer when Trump wanted to unleash the military on the protesters in DC.

Her husband is currently at home with her and their kids.

Stop trying to come up with fantasies where Trump becomes a fascist dictator. Instead you should start working on excuses for how the planned terror attacks on the 19th (or 17th or 20th) are actually the work of Antifa.

It will start quietly, media will not report it until they are taken offline.

I seem to recall that in the last big Defense Bill that the
Republicans finally caved to, there was a provision in it
that essentially limited or cut off The President's ability
to declare or enact this exact Insurrection Act?

I could be wrong...does anyone else remember that?

I remember a thread about that

I would expect our military to ignore a bad order, this would be one of them. I still smell a huge hoax.

The military falls under the ultimate command of the Commander in Chief.
Anyone in the military can refuse to follow any order.
However , they may be subject to military tribunal.

True, but if Trump were to give them an unconstitutional order they are oath-bound to ignore it. No?

Every single US military personnel swears an Oath of Enlistment to protect that Constitution .
If the Insurrection Clause is initiated that would mean the Constitution is in crisis .
They would not.

FYI : One does not "disobey" an order.
One refuses to accept the order and only under certain grounds.

Fair enough, I appreciate your educating me on the process and not being a dick about it like others have.

I know , off my usual game , right ?

They cannot limit it or we can't remember it? I do recall they were trying to knee cap him in some way, but I couldn't recall which bill it was, if he officially signed it, and what exactly they were trying.

The following is just being asked in an inquisitive tone and not in a snarky manner...


Do you have any non-conspiracy, non-right wing , not Pro Trump sources reporting this also?

I think the military is fully aware of trumps military record.

As well as Bidens...

So as of yesterday, upcoming insurrection act, nationwide power outage(was supposed to be last night, I give them a few days) with messages on the EBS from the President, Nancy arrested at the border, Pope arrested. 195,000 indictments written yesterday with all the arrests coming this week per popular Parler Q or E, Lin Wood and whoever. Busy busy week, to be followed by the armed overtaking of the DC and all state Capitol next week.

If I have that all right, might be more, have until midnight on Parler to get the scoop.

Dang it, another post reminded me. Nancy's laptop! Contents were supposed to be released today! I need to start a spreadsheet or something to keep up.

This may be another planted story to make people automatically slough off any other wild story especially the next real story😎

Isn't that what this site (and you a whole lot) is vested in?

I wonder how good TBPT have really gotten at it. It's more than 50% of the voting population. I'd guess 85-90% of anyone recently (or currently) indoctrinated by the education system.

No...nothing is happening....just like the last time and just like the next time....

This is all a deep fake by the masons.....I can just feel it in my 33degree city right now....LOL!

If something like this went into place, Trump himself would figure out a way to announce it.

Evidently not lol I started this thread to inquire for more info.

Doesn't matter who , what , when , why , or how they are aware.
And I will not use my regular Denying Ignorance as I would not expect you to know.
For obvious reasons.

They cannot.
The president is Commander in Chief , in which no official ranks higher.
And Congress has nothing to say about it.

So at least the 4d Chess playing is consistent in its ability to always be wrong.
