Will Patriots Fight or Rollover?

~ Ann Corcoran ~ 2 Comments

I don’t know, and I can’t even guess.

From what I am hearing, the number of American Patriots who descend on Washington, DC is going to be a magnitude beyond anything the Tea Party of old ever mustered.

Indeed in those days our opposition to expanding government and its voracious appetite for our money stirred anger, but in our lifetimes there has never been anything like what we see now—the enemy is clear and here (not in some foreign land), they are willing to do anything for power and it appears that foreign governments, especially the Chinese Communist Party are backing them.

Will the incredible show of  peaceful force I expect on January 6th amount to anything significant? Time will tell and predictions abound.

 

 

This morning I started my usual perusal of sites I read on a somewhat regular basis and first read my friend Richard’s Blue Ridge Forum where he harkened back to a Conservative Tree House post of last week where blogger Sundance quoted Solzhenitsyn in a post featuring a tweet from the President (above):

 

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family?

Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?…

[…]  If…if… We didn’t love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation…. We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”

― Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn , The Gulag Archipelago

Read it all.

A few days ago, Ned May at Gates of Vienna blog posted this (below) emphasizing that “deplorables” can no longer even count on some so-called “conservative” leaders and websites to stand up to the Democrat/Communists’ machine.  They are too worried about maintaining a respectable image, he says.

Here we are facing a possible civil war and they have already begun speculating about Presidential candidates for 2024!

I know Ned May and so when he writes critically about a here-to-fore reliably conservative website, PowerLine blog, I believe him.

Doubling Down on Deplorable

 

No, it’s better to pretend that conservatives can somehow manage to prevent the worst forms of electoral fraud in the future. They’re already gaming out strategies for the midterms in 2022, and thinking about Republican prospects in the 2024 presidential contest. As if future elections had any real meaning. As if Republicans differed in any fundamental ways from Democrats.

And maybe they’re right. Maybe the deplorables who descend on Washington D.C. next week will have no lasting effect. Maybe the new socialist regime will only be temporary, and Republicans will get another chance to pretend to be conservative in Congress and the White House. Maybe the earnest foreign policy wonks of the Right will get their hands on the levers of the military-industrial complex and initiate new military interventions to bring democracy to Berserkistan or engage in nation-building in Gondwanaland.

Maybe… Maybe…

But my intuition tells me that the country has been irretrievably changed, and not for the better. The gossamer fabric of the old political system will most likely be twitched aside soon by the Fickle Pinky of Fate.

For that reason, I tend to hang out more and more at WRSA these days. They’re so far beyond the pale that they don’t even register on the National Deplorometer.

[….]

This time it will be a real civil war.

[….]

Or maybe not. Maybe the Power Line boys are right, and all this will blow over. Maybe people will put on their masks, get vaccinated, and plop themselves back in front of the TV, where they belong.

Read it all!

Survivalists are speculating too!

My other stop this morning was at one of my favorite prepper sites—prepping being a hobby! I picked up over the summer.

From Modern Survival Blog where writer Ken Jorgustin warns:

The Battle For The Republic Will Likely Go Kinetic After JAN-6

After quoting from a post at American Thinker about what will happen in the halls of Congress on the 6th while hundreds of thousands of patriots gather outside:

“V.P. Pence will have to decide how he will handle the situation when two sealed envelopes are handed to him from any of those states.”

That moment, on that day, will be pivotal in United States history.

Will Pence cave to the establishment and hand the keys of the White House over to the CCP? Or will he do the hard thing, the right thing?

Jorgustin predicts Pence and the Congress will cave and goes on….

The Holding Pattern – The Wait – Will Be Over

Here’s the thrust of my post today… Everyone has been in a holding pattern. Waiting. This is especially true of American patriots / comprised within the 74 – 80 million people who voted for ‘America First’. The powder has been kept dry, so to speak, as the contested “processes” have made their way through the (corrupt?) systems(s) of (corrupt?) politics and (some corrupt?) courts. Waiting…

The purpose here is not to rehash all of that (we’ve done it plenty already). Rather, to point out a date, a time-frame, and when this may finally erupt into kinetic energy.

[….]

American Patriots

So logic leads me to believe that assuming Pence rolls over, one of two things are going to happen.

  1. American patriots let this travesty go down unchallenged and give the CCP sanctioned new Communist Party of America a clear path to steamroll us with their agenda, destroying the 1st & 2nd Amendment along the way – for starters… The CCP succeeds at effectively taking America (their 1st step). The Republic dies as it is morphed into the Great Global Reset.

2. Patriots know that this is it. The end game. They are backed into a corner and decide to defend the Constitution in ways that go kinetic.

Critical time frame according to Jorgustin ….

 

Don’t stop reading!   Read it all. 

See what the possibilities are, forget about being considered moderate and respectable and be ready both mentally and physically.

We are at a critical juncture in American history and there is no downside to being ready to both protect your loved ones, and to do whatever you are called to do to save the Constitution and this great country. .

Remember those who did it before for you.

“Stop the Steal” has the Skinny on Historic Upcoming Week in America

~ Ann Corcoran ~ 2 Comments

As I said in my post this morning. Find out what you can do to be part of history in the first week of what will be a pivotal year for America.

Stop the Steal‘s website is the place to start.  There are planned events in most every state this coming week. There is a schedule for the events in Washington on the 6th and a directory of contact information for your legislators.

See here.

Inspiring Speech by Steve Bannon! You owe it to all of those who fought and died for America!

~ Ann Corcoran

Will You Take Part in Historic Day—January 6, 2020?  By comparison it isn’t much to ask of us.

In my previous post today I talked about how important this coming week is in the history of our great country and urged you to find some way to make your voices heard.

In four minutes, former advisor to Donald Trump, Steve Bannon, makes it clear why you must not allow the Election Steal to stand.

Being in Washington or there in spirit on January 6, 2020 is only the beginning. It is not just about Trump, this is about America!

Across America Car Caravans Forming, Will Arrive in Washington on January 6th!

~ Ann Corcoran ~ 12 Comments

Update: Stop the Steal calendar and contacts here.

 

The Epoch Times has a very informative story about the car caravans organizing in the eastern half of the United States to descend on the Capitol to protest the Election Steal.

At the request of President Trump they will join hundreds of thousands who will arrive by bus, train, or plane in what I’m guessing may be the largest rally for any President ever.

From the Epoch Times:

Car Caravans Forming for ‘Historic’ Protest in Washington

Sixty-year-old Robin, a retail merchandiser in rural Virginia, hasn’t visited the nation’s capital in more than two decades or ever taken part in organizing a political event, although she was quick to volunteer to manage a stop for one of the four vehicle caravans headed to Washington for what many are calling a historic protest on Jan. 6, 2021.

In an unprecedented request, President Donald Trump asked his supporters to travel to Washington for a “big protest” on Jan. 6, when a joint session of Congress will be held, during which lawmakers will vet the Electoral College votes cast three weeks prior.

A number of House Republicans have committed to challenge the slates of electors from six states where the president has disputed the validity of the election’s outcome.

This story was written before news broke yesterday that Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri would support the President in the Senate.

But frankly, we better see Senators Ted Cruz, Mike Lee, Marsha Blackburn, Tom Cotton, Rand Paul and other REPUBLICANS standing up for us as well.

 

“Be there, will be wild!” the president wrote on Twitter on Dec. 19. A week later, he added, “See you in Washington, DC, on January 6th. Don’t miss it. Information to follow!”

A Michigan man who goes by the nickname Dr. ENoCH on Twitter is organizing the larger caravan effort, which encompasses 20 cities along four routes. He told The Epoch Times that considering the size of the two prior post-election Trump events in Washington—which the president didn’t call for or endorse ahead of time—the Jan. 6 event is on pace to become the biggest Trump rally so far.

“There are two things that Trump’s ever asked us to do. One was to vote for him and now, the other one is to be in D.C. on the 6th,” Enoch said. “That’s why I started organizing this.”

Here is info. from DR ENoCH on Twitter:

 

Continue reading because there is a lot of information in the Epoch Times story about who is organizing and where.  They may ask for your e-mail address before you can read it for free.

If you have a problem, you can get the story here.

What do you do if you can’t travel to Washington?

I know it is hard for most of you to go to Washington, DC on the spur of the moment. But you must find other avenues of activism in this last week.

Start calling all of your elected officials in Washington, your Members of the House and your Senators and tell them you believe the election was stolen. Shut down the phone lines! 

Go to Stop the Steal for contact information and what you might say to your elected officials.

Use social media even if you hate it.  Most Members of the House and Senate have Twitter and Facebook accounts.  Find them and tell them what you think.

They have local offices too, so on Wednesday, rally with as many people as you can round up in front of their local offices, even a few people will make an impact. Take pictures of your protest and post them on whatever social media you have. Get your local newspaper/TV to cover your local protest.

At minimum, watch the events unfold on January 6th on CSPAN, Newsmax, or One America News. History is being made, don’t miss it!

And, when the dust settles, vow to become engaged in supporting a powerful Patriot movement, a MAGA movement, to get rid of anyone in the Washington swamp who was complicit in the great Election Steal of 2020, or who was too chicken to speak up.

Happy New Year!

Why Would Blue State Governors Use Draconian Lockdowns that DO NOT Work to Slow the Chinese Virus?

~ Ann Corcoran ~ 2 Comments

Because they are dupes of those Socialist/Communist strategists who are working to destroy Capitalism and make everyone dependent on the government.

COVID-19 is a dream come true for modern day Commies who have dreamed of this day since Cloward and Piven wrote their thesis in the 1960s.

The ruling class! We need a good crisis to demoralize America, redistribute the wealth.

Here is one more of many stories about how California, with the most Chinese virus cases even as it is the most locked down state in the nation, is suffering.

To those of us looking on it makes no sense that Governor Newsom would want to inflict such economic misery on the people of California, unless….

…..Newsom and other Democrat governors want the suffering to force Americans to move toward Socialism/Communism.

From The Lid:

California COVID Cases Surge- Proving Lockdowns Don’t Work

If you still live in California, you probably deserve a medal. Living under the tyrannical rule of Newsom has to hurt. He keeps on adding to his COVID rules, but the only thing the rules accomplish is to prove that lockdowns don’t work. The economy sinks while the CoronaVirus cases surge.

[….]

Stephen Moore explains that the lockdowns don’t reduce deaths, and they hurt those who can least afford to be hurt:

Lockdowns are crushing the little guy. Even so, it is the Democrats who are pushing this anti-freedom agenda. Here are the 10 states listed by The New York Times with the strictest lockdown orders: California, Connecticut, Illinois, Michigan, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Washington. What do they have in common? Democratic governors.

[….]

The states that have not locked down their economy have lower death rates than New York and New Jersey. The unemployment rate for service workers in these states has skyrocketed to as high as 10%. In contrast, the red states, such as Utah and Florida, that are still open for business have unemployment rates for service workers as low as 4%.

 

Be confused no longer, they have a STRATEGY

So if you have been confused about why these Democrat governors are behaving in a way that is clearly aimed at bringing down the US economy, don’t be confused.  The Democrat Party has been indoctrinated for decades in the Cloward-Piven Strategy—bring down Capitalism by creating a massive welfare state.

In 2009 I wrote about it at Refugee Resettlement Watch positing that the reason the Left wanted more impoverished refugees and immigrants was to add to the numbers of poor people who would demand more ‘services’ from an increasingly strained government.

Here is my post from 2009.  I know it is long but maybe it will help clear up any confusion you have right now about what appears to be just dumb decisions by dumb Dems.  No, this is a strategy!

Cloward-Piven Strategy: bring down Capitalism by flooding the welfare system

 ~ ANN CORCORAN

More on November 23rd:   Jim Simpson, an expert on the Cloward-Piven strategy has more today at the American Thinker, here.

That is the basic goal involved in the Cloward-Piven strategy that most of us never heard of until Obama and the community organizers got to the White House.  I’ve been reading about it lately, thanks to RRW reader Paul, and it came to mind last night as I considered the fact that Somali refugees had flooded Maine primarily for the generous welfare system (more shortly).

This is just some background from David Horowitz’s Discover the Networks that I want to post so we can continue to build our ‘community destabilization’ category, and not lose the links.

Cloward is dead. Piven is still alive and in 2011 Piven (now 88) attempted to try to tell students at a Christian college that the Tea Party was RACIST. HotAir tells us what happened. https://hotair.com/archives/tina-korbe/2011/10/13/messiah-college-crowd-pushes-back-on-frances-fox-pivens-accusations-of-tea-party-racism/

Inspired by the August 1965 riots in the black district of Watts in Los Angeles (which erupted after police had used batons to subdue a black man suspected of drunk driving), Cloward and Piven published an article titled “The Weight of the Poor: A Strategy to End Poverty” in the May 2, 1966 issue of The Nation. Following its publication, The Nation sold an unprecedented 30,000 reprints. Activists were abuzz over the so-called “crisis strategy” or “Cloward-Piven Strategy,” as it came to be called. Many were eager to put it into effect.

In their 1966 article, Cloward and Piven charged that the ruling classes used welfare to weaken the poor; that by providing a social safety net, the rich doused the fires of rebellion. Poor people can advance only when “the rest of society is afraid of them,” Cloward told The New York Times on September 27, 1970. Rather than placating the poor with government hand-outs, wrote Cloward and Piven, activists should work to sabotage and destroy the welfare system; the collapse of the welfare state would ignite a political and financial crisis that would rock the nation; poor people would rise in revolt; only then would “the rest of society” accept their demands.

The key to sparking this rebellion would be to expose the inadequacy of the welfare state. Cloward-Piven’s early promoters cited radical organizer Saul Alinsky as their inspiration. “Make the enemy live up to their (sic) own book of rules,” Alinsky wrote in his 1972 book Rules for Radicals. When pressed to honor every word of every law and statute, every Judaeo-Christian moral tenet, and every implicit promise of the liberal social contract, human agencies inevitably fall short. The system’s failure to “live up” to its rule book can then be used to discredit it altogether, and to replace the capitalist “rule book” with a socialist one.

 

You should take some time and read Cloward and Piven’s 1966 seminal work in the Nation magazine to fully understand the concept.  They (and their comrades today) want to enroll as many people as they can on public assistance, cause a crisis by overloading local governments, bring greater federal control and ultimately collapse Capitalism as the federal government takes greater control and brings about ultimately a guaranteed wage for all— a redistribution of wealth.

This is the opening paragraph of the Nation article:

[Update! The article is no longer available at The Nation, but a Leftwing publication reposted it here,at Common Dreams.]

How can the poor be organized to press for relief from poverty? How can a broad-based movement be developed and the current disarray of activist forces be halted? These questions confront, and confound, activists today. It is our purpose to advance a strategy which affords the basis for a convergence of civil rights organizations, militant anti-poverty groups and the poor. If this strategy were implemented, a political crisis would result that could lead to legislation for a guaranteed annual income and thus an end to poverty.

My theory is that the “poor” of the 1960’s were, in subsequent decades, entering the middle class.  Thanks to Capitalism there weren’t enough of them to collapse the system and many other Americans have an  antipathy to living off the government and accepting welfare!   So community organizers need the immigrants and refugees who have become accustomed, in the case of refugees, to living off of the United Nations, to help swell the welfare rolls.  That is the only logical explanation for the Obama Administration continuing to resettle very high numbers of refugees right now (in a recession!) when there is little work for them—well that, and the desire on their part to create a magical borderless utopian world.

The Somalis who migrated to Maine are only too happy to comply, next!  Here it is.

So here we are, decades later, just where Cloward-Piven, Saul Alinsky, Barack Obama, AOC and Ilhan Omar wanted us to be—redistributing wealth by handing out welfare checks to most of America.

If Biden/Harris succeed in stealing the White House, the demented old man could finish us off by handing us over to the Communist Party of China.
