A great quote to contemplate & meditate on, today of all days:
“You don’t go to war with the army you want. You go to war with the army you’ve got.”
Think about this hodge podge of digital soldiers who’ve come together over the past 5 years to fight for this day.
Some of us -
...came in with toolboxes already filled with digital, investigative or intelligence tricks & experience.
But many didn’t - MOST didn’t.
Yet we had something we believed in.
We knew that this war would be an information war fought in the digital battle space, and that the -
...enemy was better funded, better experienced, well dug in and highly sophisticated.
But we wanted to play our part.
Many of you learned about VPNs for the first time, how to operate on the chans and/or how to disseminate information across a wide spectrum.
The meme -
...makers...hot damn I’m so proud of the meme makers over the past several years.
But think about the untold & unsung millions who spent their precious free time learning new skills, tricks & tactics just to take part in a war that most of the country didn’t know was being -
...fought, for a position that paid nothing and offered little to no glory.
But we all did it for love of the Republic.
We faced ridicule, animosity and even loss of job or income, but we pushed forward anyway.
We’ve had times where it seems like all may be lost, and most-
...have no direct contact with our commander, in true decentralized guerilla warfare fashion.
Yet we’re here, we all have new skills and we know we’ve won.
What a time to be alive.

Just did the @1st_praetorian route reconnaissance for today's @RealWalkAway event in Atlanta from a drone high in the sky - better living through technology.
A few reminders for anyone who's in the area and may be planning to make trouble:
-you've seen plenty of evidence...
...via your friends in Portland & Seattle getting rolled up by Federal agents days later for their actions that facial recognition tech has advanced to the point that face coverings no longer hide your identity.
-some members of our team are former Federal law enforcement-
...agents from the Atlanta area specifically - their friends and former co-workers are aware of our event- some will be there, some will be close and ready to assist us at a moments notice
-aside from our "eye in the sky" ISR platform, we also have surveillance cameras on the-
Jimmy Carter’s admission of a failed raid to rescue Iranian hostages lost us several great members of Delta and lost him re-election.
Despite -
...that knowledge of history and what was on the line, @realDonaldTrump was willing to risk a major black eye just days before the election - but considered that saving an American hostage was worth it.
I know that AO very well - I was on the first ODA sent into Niger back -
...in ‘05, and I talk about that experience in my first book Love Me When I’m Gone about my time as a Green Beret.
Niger is not the easiest AO to operate in.
Hidden enemy & spies everywhere (including China), we stick out like a sore thumb and the infrastructure makes it -
When you finally begin to understand what that money the Biden family took from Chinese intelligence officers was really for, so many things begin to make sense:
-the desire to remove our borders & give free healthcare to anyone around the world who comes to America, which would-
2/ lead to an essential invasion, bankrupt the nation and overpower our healthcare system
-the decision to allow an arch nemesis to manufacture our military equipment and even hardware for the data storage facilities our intelligence agencies use
-the decision to close down the-
3/ entire US economy for a virus with a +99% survival rate at the same time the Chinese economy is taking a massive hit & preparing for floods, ensuring we don't pull too far ahead of them & disrupt the "100 Year Marathon."
-the decision for large money groups like CALPERS to -
Thread: @1st_praetorian Events and Coming Chaos Intel Update (video at the end if you prefer):
1/ Uncertainty creates fear, and I've noticed / talked to / heard quite a few Americans expressing fear about the coming weeks because they don't know what to expect. I wish I had -
2/better news, but one of my preferred mantras is "the worst time to prepare for an emergency is in the middle of it."
By reading that, you should have an expectation of what will come out here, so be forewarned if you don't want to read any bad news. But if you're like me and-
3/ would rather know & prepare for things no matter what they are, read on.
Before we get to the ugly stuff, I'd like to share some happy & good news:
