I consider the tweet below the most important yet. We'll immediately discuss why below. After that there are two documents and an interview to work on. Clarity is arising, pointing the way.
2) I was about to laugh about the dispute warning, but then realized that this very act on Twitter's part is that grain of sand inside which you can see the entire world of what we face today. How dare they? How dare you Twitter? Who, WHAT do you think you are?
3) We have to consider the logic. Stave Navarro releases a report. It is published at Bannon's War Room. In these matters, tone is everything. It might have been published anywhere but the President, I mean Navarro, chose to publish with Steve.
4) That is a signal. Why Steve? Beyond the clear statement of unity - Steve is a full member of the strategic team working to save our nation - there is a far deeper, more important reason. Steve's main portfolio item is China. Choosing him speaks them as much as us. Maybe more.
5) Bullies are cowards. One of the greatest means of PREVENTING war is the bold, direct, aggressive communication of readiness. You want a piece of this? Come get it...expletives deleted. There's always the other hand. War may be coming.
6) The place is what? Bannon's WAR ROOM. In our #SunTzuForMAGA work, we have established that for the ancient Chinese, the war planning room was always placed in a Temple. Going to the Temple is a synonym for war planning. We call it the War Room. Steve's name SHOUTS Sun Tzu.
7) Drop it down again. Using this means, Trump is TELEGRAPHING to the Chinese...WE ARE ONTO YOU. We know you're trying to Sun Tzu us into surrender. But buddy, you're not as masterful with Sun Tzu as you think you are. We see what you're doing, and we're prepared.
8) And what is the name of this report?
THE IMMACULATE DECEPTION:
Six Key Dimensions of Election Irregularities
Later this morning, we'll come back and study this report together. Right now what is the signal in that name? It of course summons the term "Immaculate Conception."
9) The Immaculate Conception is of course the basis of the Christian belief that Jesus was both a man, and the Son of God. It is the core belief of Christianity, and it is celebrated on Christmas. How often does Trump talk about the importance of saying Merry Christmas?
10) Here we are in the height of the 2020 Christmas season, and Trump entitles his work with an absolutely crystal clear reference to this season. He is grounding this report under the very Will of God our nation was founded upon.
11) Drop down a step. Our nation is the only nation in the history of the world founded upon ideas, a philosophy, concepts, conceptions, and the most immaculate conceptions ever brought forth onto the field of men governing men. WE are also the immaculate conception.
12) But this election has been a deception. This election has been Satan's playground. Where God immaculately impregnated the virgin Mary, Satan has immaculately impregnated this election. It is Satan's child, by which I simply mean, it is China's evil child.
13) And where was this extraordinary documented made accessible to the public? The Washington Examiner. More specifically, it is in the The Conservative Source, the Examiner's Magazine. I never knew this magazine existed before. How about that?
Peter Navarro releases 36-page report alleging election fraud 'more than sufficient' to swing victory to Trump
Now that, my friends, is a signal. Not only is Trump telling us he will NOT concede, he's claiming victory.
15) I have read the story in full. It is excellent. It is well-written and copiously documented. The links alone are invaluable. If you have the time, it would make for a wonderful research project. You read it and click on each link. Of those, you decide what to read as well.
16) Sadly, we will not have time to do that together. But if you choose to do so, you will be glad you did. What's more, if you go the next step of sharing, compose your own thread and hit me. Hoping I see it, I'll forward your work to all my followers with gratitude.
17) Now Trump's tweet: "Peter Navarro releases 36-page report alleging election fraud 'more than sufficient' to swing victory to Trump. A great report by Peter. Statistically impossible to have lost the 2020 Election. Big protest in D.C. on January 6th. Be there, will be wild!"
18) Have you notice many people saying, "the election isn't over?" I have, and I've been torn by the logic. My heart instantly shouts, yes it is, we won by a landslide. I've mediated about this, and I'm wrong. We did win by a landslide at the vote.
19) But due to the Immaculate Deception, we did NOT win the election itself yet. So, I only now understand that winning at the vote does NOT = winning the election. It breaks my heart, and boom, there goes another beloved naivete down the drain.
20) That is what I hear Trump telling us about January 6, 2021. This part is every bit as important as voting in the first place. We've discussed this many times before. So sadly, I will be an absentee rallier. I apologize.
21) Let me talk for a moment about a couple of my friends who will be involved in organizing 50 state capital rallies that day, @PROUDPATRIOT45 and @HelpStopHate. These two patriots have given their all to empower everyone who can to attend, locally.
22) Now Trump's points:
1) Peter Navarro releases 36-page report 2) Alleging election fraud 'more than sufficient' 3) To swing victory to Trump 4) Statistically impossible to have lost the 2020 Election 5) Big protest in D.C. on January 6th 7) Be there, will be wild!
23) The incoming responses have been so many, so loud, and so wonderful, we have to take a theological break here and discuss a technical point of definition. First, I'll share my own, what I was taught and its logic. Then, we'll look to the other side.
24) I was taught as a boy that Mary was a virgin, but one who became pregnant, impregnated immaculately by God. Thus, the immaculate conception was, I was taught, what occurred when Virgin Mary was impregnated, but not by man, by God. She remained a virgin.
25) As I always share, I adore the religion I was taught as a boy, but have not remained within the faith in manhood. I am not a believer. I am a respecter, and an interpreter. I do so with joy, happiness, and great comfort. I also serve and support others' faiths.
26) My many Catholic friends have been righteously sounding off! The immaculate conception, they tell me, was Mary's. She was born without sin, NOT under the burden of original sin. I confess, I never knew that before this morning. New information!
27) Coming back to today's political world, however, I don't see how anyone can dispute that The Immaculate Deception contains a bold signal about Christmas 2020. So, I have this compromise to offer. Let us forebear any further theological debate about definitions. Rather...
28) Rather, let us hold to what cannot be disputed. The Immaculate Deception is obviously the election fraud, its theft without the hand of its "father" immediately present. We must look to discover who its father is. But I will state clearly the paternity again in a moment.
29) The Evil Father of 2020's Immaculate Deception is China. Its immaculate bride/harem is the evil combination of MSM, the Democrats, the corrupted Judiciary, the corrupted DOJ and team, the corrupted Intel community, and the blinded Americans who simply do not see or know.
30) The Evil Child of this Immaculate Deception is the one falsely called President Elect Biden. His manger is the innovatively named Office of the President Elect. His evilly immaculate conception was a campaign run without touching the people, from his basement in hell.
31) It was a great joy to take an analogical excursion! Let us now return to our leader's guidance, point by point. Let's crunch up 1, 2, & 3.
1) Peter Navarro releases 36-page report 2) Alleging election fraud 'more than sufficient' 3) To swing victory to Trump
32) Election fraud more than sufficient to swing victory to Trump.
Now THAT is guidance.
Letting go of landslide - which it was - victory is all that matters. Trump has 100% claimed victory.
That matters.
33) In all the ins and outs, twists and turns of American history, nothing has ever happened like this before. Voter fraud stole the 2020 election. Say it with me now...
Voter Fraud Stole The 2020 Election
We won. Our victory was stolen.
This is new territory.
34) In the long work we have yet in front of us today, we'll discover that this was actually FAR MORE than merely voter fraud. We are in a Cyberwar, now. We have never been in a Cyberwar before. Cyberwarfare has been used against us, and we're pretty good at it too.
35) But that a war has been declared over the earth, and its dark forces are led by China, against the goodness of America...that is new. We are in a war, a Cyberwar. But like I said, we'll come back to that. Voter fraud is but a skirmish in that greater war. Wow.
36) What President Trump tells us though is that we have in hand, in Peter's report, the clear evidence that voter fraud stole this election and we have the data to prove it. This was a stolen election.
Take that in.
This was a stolen election.
You need to know.
37) Here's the pivot point:
4) Statistically impossible to have lost the 2020 Election
Crunch it all up. Analyse this or that. The bottom line is that in this case, an election is a statistical thing. We have to talk about that.
38) Over a hundred things, your count and my count can be trued. We'll both agree after a bit of count and recount. True of 1,000. By the time we get to 10,000 things we're counting, we're ready to turn to statistics. Here are some examples.
39) How much does 100 single dollar bills weigh? Assuming we have millions of dollar bills, we don't count them one by one. We weigh them. We accept the sum of their weight with a conversion number to equal their worth. That's statistics.
40) Or, we use those lovely dollar counting machines we see in the movies. Okay. Put the same stack through two different times, will you get the same answer twice? Sure, sometimes. Sometimes not. As the numbers grow larger, we will average the two counts. Statistics.
41) A truck arrives in the middle of the night with 500,000 ballots, 98.6% of which are for Joe Biden. This is NOT statistically possible. It would be like a lead ball jumping up and floating in front of your face. Not possible. Statistics, in voting, is a science.
42) There can be no clearer statement, no stronger guidance, than that by the laws of statistics we simply did not, could not have lost the 2020 Election. Fact is, we didn't. We won by a landslide. It is this landslide they MUST steal. So what do we do?
43) Silly me, I skipped six:
1) Peter Navarro releases 36-page report 2) Alleging election fraud 'more than sufficient' 3) To swing victory to Trump 4) Statistically impossible to have lost the 2020 Election 5) Big protest in D.C. on January 6th 7) Be there, will be wild!
44) Corrected numbering:
1) Peter Navarro releases 36-page report 2) Alleging election fraud 'more than sufficient' 3) To swing victory to Trump 4) Statistically impossible to have lost the 2020 Election 5) Big protest in D.C. on January 6th 6) Be there, will be wild!
45) Here is our true answer.
PROTEST
We must protest this attempted theft. And on that note:
5) Big protest in D.C. on January 6th
President Trump has sent out a clear signal. The protest in D.C. on January 6 is his command to us. Be there, or be square. But his words are...
46) Trump tells us:
6) Be there, will be wild!
Is this the voice of man giving up? Does this signal surrender in any possible way? Not a chance. This election IS NOT OVER.
47) I imagine not a single square foot of available space unfilled by a patriot supporting President Trump. I imagine those who are able coming with all their passion, fury, commitment, and patriotism to adhere to Trump's guidance. It will be wild.
48) Two more documents and an interview yet remain. Here is the first of those documents. My great friend @cancerousToejam send it to me. If you'd like to read it now, here's the link. After a break, this is where we'll pick up again.
49) Shall we play a game? Our great @POTUS says yes. January 6 is going to be a GREAT rally, wild fun! The one organizer I personally know, closest to that command from POTUS, is @PatriotAssembly and her website is:
50) So what's going to happen on January 6th? In every one of our 50 great states, MAGA Movement members will arise and proclaim the reality of our landslide election in all of our rallies. We will let the entire world know, we won, we know we did, we will NOT let it be stolen.
51) Now let's turn to our next document to study. We might call it "The Game Plan." It was written by @cpf_taxed. Here it is again:
52) In the movie Wargames, the outcome was that the only way to win was NOT to play. What a brilliant ideal. When it came out, I couldn't possibly agree more. I was against all war, an absolute pacifist at the time. I wanted to destroy the weapons.
53) When we turn to today's video - this will be a very long thread - we'll discover that Cyber Warfare has overtaken Nuclear Warfare. In all their evil, we might credit China has asked us, Shall We Play A Game? Can you catch us stealing America's Election 2020?
54) Point by point: Due to cyberattacks of our critical infrastructure, there is no question what's happening and where the President is taking us.
Hear again. This is an actual war. Not a play war, the real thing.
55) I must quote: "Here's the punchline: it's now a fact that American traitors in government and private sector have worked with China and other foreign adversaries to attack the United States to compromise our national security."
56) Numbered:
1) American traitors 2) In government and private sector 3) Have worked with China (and others) to 4) Attack the United States to 5) Compromise our national security
We could almost stop reading here.
57) Don't stop reading. Not only does CPF_Taxed support his EVERY assertion with documentation, he gives us a wealth of links to just about every other thing going on right now. I fell down a few of his rabbit holes, and almost couldn't climb back up!
58) Here, allow me to share a slight disagreement among brothers. I do NOT accept the garage versus your daughter's bedroom analogy CPF puts forward. Please read it, I don't want to repeat it. Okay? I'll just offer my own...
59) We turn to ancient Strategic Defense. It's ultimate principle was claim the high ground, always fight downwards. Well, always when you can. Ha! Sometimes you have to go conquer other territory and then you must...
Fight Upwards. Strategic Offense may be defined as follows...
60) When fighting upwards, take the low hills first, making sure your enemy must expend more to defend than you expend to offend. Uphill warfighting must cost your enemy MORE than it costs you.
61) Having successfully taken the first low his, now there is a valley and a mid-sized hill to come. Same principles apply. As you kicked righteous butt on the low hill, your enemy now fears you. You must decimate them, fighting upwards, on the mid-sized hill.
62) You can be sure that the High Castle, on the highest hill is watching carefully. And they're getting scared. And remember, bullies are cowards. They love their safe walls and the advantage of fighting downward. They have no idea what a truly committed warrior looks like.
63) CPF_Taxed tells us that the stolen election is actually the lower hill. He tells us that the attack our on "most secure systems of national security" is the higher hill. Well, using my analogy he does. And I say, always win the lowest hill first. That is Strategic Offense.
64) The most serious point here is that traitors will hang. CPF means that literally, and he is right to do so. Somewhere in all this info, there's a new EO making military tribunals and death by hanging or shooting legal again. This is that serious.
65) One of the most powerful parts of CPF's article is this list of recent events. Check it out:
66) It's worth listing:
1) Fired Defense Secretary 2) Fired the head of CISA 3) Removed all Globalists from the Pentagon Advisory Board 4) Replaced the Attorney General to an acting one that specializes in Foreign election interference
67) Continued...
5) Appointed another attorney from the military who served in the same unit as General Flynn as Deputy Attorney General (His father also happened to work for JFK) 6) Signed an executive order outlining military succession
68) And...
7) Moved 3 aircraft carriers to the west coast with a strike group 8) Moved 2 aircraft carriers to the east coast with a strike group 9) Changed federal execution laws to allow bullets and hanging 10) Signed an EO making the 24th a federal holiday for 2020 only
69) Concluding...
11) Cut off funding for CIA dark ops 12) Made it so Special Ops in the military report directly to the Defense Secretary
So how about all of that!
70) Please forgive that I am NOT able to source and stand behind all 12 facts. If any are in dispute - NOT Twitter's idiotic dispute - please do post corrections here. Let's finish up our CPF work by returning to Strategic Offense.
71) The true enemy has revealed its face. It is NO ONE on our side, it is China. But everyone on our side who aids and abets China is a traitor, and should be, upon conviction, hung or shot at dawn. Literally. Treason is a hanging offense. This is the thing we face.
72) What do I mean by high ground? Morality. The useful idiots, under sway of The Cabal and their evil Mistress China, have brilliantly subverted the very morality of our nation. Marxism has gained the UPPER MORAL GROUND. The US is bad, morally, they have established.
73) If we fail to win the low hill of completing our landslide election victory, we have no chance to fight uphill to the next skirmishes. As we will see, the election loss was NOT merely the theft of an election. It WAS a Cyberwarfare defeat. We'll parse that out.
74) But it's time for our second break. When we return, before we return to Cyberwarfare, we must walk slowly through Navarro's report together. It'll be a lot of work. But duly caffeinated, we should be able to pull it off.
75) Break over, we begin again. Let's talk - once more - about how you read such a document. First, read the introduction. When you do, this is the image that jumps off the page at you.
76) Read the introduction slowly for full absorption. Then, cut to the conclusion. Read it slowly. If you're filled up by then, that's enough for now. If not, go back to the body of the text and take in what you can. Allow a GREAT caution here, though.
77) Most of us have been trained for rapid, surface-level reading. We have NOT been trained for deep comprehension or retention. We have been trained to read fast. This satisfies our egos. It does NOT speak to our souls.
Fast reading does not = action to follow.
78) So if you wish to take in the body of this report, schedule all the time required. I recommend printing it out. Marking it up. And hey! Your markups would lead to a FANTASTIC thread of your own. Don't think I'm placating you. The best students are teachers. Be bold.
79) What I've decided to do for this interminable thread is take the conclusion and work it through, my way. One tweet in copy, one in response. We begin now, next...
80) "From the findings of this report, it is possible to infer what may well have been a coordinated strategy to effectively stack the election deck against the Trump-Pence ticket."
81) It is POSSIBLE to INFER? No one asked for my input. How about it is IMPOSSIBLE to FAIL TO CONCLUDE...
Why be nice? Why speak softly? I disagree. Not with the conclusion, but with the cushioning. We're past that now. It WAS a coordinated strategy. Come on.
82) "Indeed, the patterns of election irregularities observed in this report are so consistent across the six battleground states that they suggest a coordinated strategy to,
83) "if not steal the election, then to strategically game the election process in such a way as to unfairly tilt the playing field in favor of the Biden-Harris ticket."
Okay. I get it. As a salesman you don't want to oversell. Yeah, yeah.
84) Couldn't disagree more strongly. As a salesman, you NEVER want to undersell, either. If not steal? Are you kidding? Your whole point is that it was stolen. Remember, Immaculate Deception? What's that if not stealing. Don't back off for goodness sake.
85) I have to opine further. This is a HUGE part of our failure on the right. The left never does this. See the Green New Deal. They don't fail for lack of boldness. We're the ones who do that. This damned election was stolen. Period. Pure and simple. Let's us just say so.
86) "Using the COVID-19 pandemic as a justification, [Democrat] government officials [in Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin] usurped their legislatures’ authority and unconstitutionally revised their state’s election statutes.
87) "They accomplished these statutory revisions through executive fiat or friendly lawsuits, thereby weakening ballot integrity."
Forgive me. Weakening? No, no, no, no. OBLITERATING! DESTROYING ballot integrity.
No more understatements, please!
88) "– the goal of this strategy was to flood the battleground states “with millions of ballots to be sent through the mails, or placed in drop boxes, with little or no chain of custody.”
89) This one isn't quite as bad, but it still smacks of understatement. "little or no chain of custody." No. It's purpose was absolutely and vilely to DESTROY THE CHAIN OF CUSTODY. Spades are spades and need calling as such.
90) "At the same time, Democrat government officials also sought to “weaken the strongest security measures protecting the integrity of the vote signature verification and witness requirements.”
Finally. Yes.
91) Obviously, I'd say it more aggressively. I don't like the word "weaken," as indicated above. Obliterate, destroy, annul. Here's a new word for me! Deracinate. It means to tear up by the roots. Voter integrity must be DERACINATED for them to achieve their objective.
92) Still, this one bears counting:
1) millions of ballots to be sent through the mails 2) or placed in drop boxes 3) with little or no chain of custody
93) If this report gives us nothing else, it gives us overwhelming evidence of those three things. If you have the slightest doubt in your mind about Election 2020's theft, those three points MUST obliterate that doubt. It was stolen. Got that?
94) "The weight of evidence and patterns of irregularities uncovered in this report are such that it is irresponsible for anyone – especially the mainstream media – to claim that there is “no evidence” of fraud or irregularities."
Now we're getting somewhere!
95) I might have replaced the word "irresponsible" with something more like idiotic, stupid, reprehensible, unpatriotic, or maybe even treasonous. But, I'm famous for being a hot head. Ha!
96) "The weight of evidence and patterns of irregularities uncovered in this report..." Now that's a fair statement. You have to take that in. The weight of evidence, come on now...
OVERWHELMING!
97) "The ballots that have come into question because of the identified election irregularities are more than sufficient to swing the outcome in favor of President Trump should even a relatively small portion of these ballots be ruled illegal."
98) This one's almost perfect. Just remove everything after the word "should."
More than sufficient to swing the outcome in favor of President Trump.
See how clean and clear that is? That's what you should take from this point. Take it and run with it!
99) We need this now, for context:
"All happy families are alike; each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way." – Anna Karenina, by Leo Tolstoy
Not quite sure how happy families are all alike, but no matter. The unique unhappy profile rings true to me. What do you think?
100) "While all six battleground states exhibit most, or all, six dimensions of election irregularities, each state has a unique mix of issues that might be considered “most important.”
101) "To put this another way, all battleground states are characterized by the same or similar election irregularities; but, like Tolstoy’s unhappy families, each battleground state is different in its own election irregularity way."
102) Let's go back to statistics. Looked at properly, everything has its own statistical profile. How you cheat in one state isn't quite, not exactly the same as how you cheat in another. This report actually has the goods on that. That's not nothing. It is quite something.
103) "This was theft by a thousand cuts across six dimensions and six battleground states rather than any one single “silver bullet” election irregularity."
Still don't like words like "irregularity" but that's okay.
I prefer words like THEFT.
104) But, six dimensions and six battleground states, now that's COOL! This is a penetrating analysis, bedrock solid. Don't let the soft words fool you. This is more than just solid, it's...
PROVEN
Beyond the shadow of a doubt.
105) "In refusing to investigate a growing number of legitimate grievances, the anti-Trump media and censoring social media are complicit in shielding the American public from the truth."
Not complicit, treasonous.
106) "This is a dangerous game that simultaneously undermines the credibility of the media and the stability of our political system and Republic."
Not undermines, rather abuses for evil purpose.
107) And not undermines the stability. Rather, destroys the integrity of our political system and Republic.
And that is theirs, and their overlords in China's purpose.
108) "Those journalists, pundits, and political leaders now participating in what has become a Biden Whitewash should acknowledge the six dimensions of election irregularities and conduct the appropriate investigations to determine the truth about the 2020 election."
109) "If this is not done before Inauguration Day, we risk putting into power an illegitimate and illegal president lacking the support of a large segment of the American people."
Don't like the words "large segment." We'll come back to that. Love everything else.
110) An illegitimate and illegal president need NOT lack support from anyone. He may, or he may not. No matter. His illegality disqualifies him at face, prima facie, first face. Biden is a traitor. Who supports him or does not support him does not matter.
111) "The failure to aggressively and fully investigate the six dimensions of election irregularities assessed in this report is a signal failure not just of our anti-Trump mainstream media and censoring social media but also of both our legislative and judicial branches."
112) CLOSER! Someone quick pour Peter some coffee. Now THAT is a closing point. Whew hoo. Both our legislative and judicial branches are as corrupt as our censoring social media and our anti-Trump mainstream media.
I have NO corrections to offer!
113) "Republican governors in Arizona and Georgia together with Republican majorities in both chambers of the State Legislatures of five of the six battleground states – Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin
– "
114) "have had both the power and the opportunity to investigate the six dimensions of election irregularities presented in this report."
115) "Yet, wilting under intense political pressure, these politicians have failed in their Constitutional duties and responsibilities to do so – and thereby failed both their states and this nation as well as their party."
116) I bow in humbled gratitude to Peter over this damning statement. Read it and weep. Then, read it again.
117) "Both State courts and Federal courts, including the Supreme Court, have failed the American people in refusing to appropriately adjudicate the election irregularities that have come before them. Their failures pose a great risk to the American Republic."
118) That list must be numbered:
1) State Courts 2) Federal Courts, including the 3) Supreme Court
I know you're tired. So am I. But look. America's judiciary has failed to adjudicate. We're in a state of legal collapse.
119) "If these election irregularities are not fully investigated prior to Inauguration Day and thereby effectively allowed to stand, this nation runs the very real risk of never being able to have a fair presidential election again"
120) " – with the down-ballot Senate races scheduled for
January 5 in Georgia an initial test case of this looming risk."
121) "this nation runs the very real risk of never being able to have a fair presidential election again"
And that is China's 100% intent.
122) I just went looking for an image but was unhappy. Who remembers the great wizard Gandalf in his ultimate battle with a monster called the Balrog? His fateful statement was:
You Shall Not Pass
I've been reading Tolkien since 1978.
123) Not since Great Britain in 1776 has America faced so great a monster as China in 2020. It has infiltrated the warp and woof of our nation's infrastructure. It didn't do so by itself. Beijing is both predecessor and great heir to Moscow.
124) The time has come for us to say no more. Treason is treason, and traitors are traitors. Trump has decreed, noose and bullets are on the table. I shy not from them, and nor should you. Treason shall no longer pass.
125) We made it through our documents, adequately. We leave our interview work for tomorrow.
The brilliant tweet below, by my friend @FloridaBoyMedia, solved a YUGE problem for me. Why did @realDonaldTrump support @kevinomccarthy for speaker? Until the tweet below, I could not square that circle. Now I can.
2) The simple fact is that McCArthy is a natural enemy of Trump's, and of the #MAGA Movement, exactly as Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell are. All of us sycophantic Trump supporters wanted him to be a temporary Speaker, himself. Alas.
3) Thing is, if we know nothing else about Trump, we know he does business with his enemies. Think of Kim Jong Un. No missile tests during Trump's administration. And how many since Let's Go Brandon? It ain't zero.
2) I was not in DC for the 6 January 2021 Rally. I wanted to go. Fiercely. It wounded my ego to NOT go. Allow me a martial arts term: Zanshin. It comes from the Samurai and means your sense of threat or danger. For the Samurai it was almost a mystical concept.
3) In Akira Kurosawa's great film The 7 Samurai (which was the basis of the Magnificent 7), there is a scene in which a Samurai being recruited and tested, refuses to walk past an open door, which was, in fact, hiding an attacker. He was the greatest recruit. That was Zanshin.
1/ I have now watched our podcast below. If you haven't seen it yet, find the time. It's worth it. I sure wish I could learn to make my eyes look at the camera instead of the person's face on screen. Alas.
2/ As to the coming thread, though, I walk away feeling some other ground needs to be covered. Try to stick tight if you can. Look at this list:
1) Doctrine 2) Strategy 3) Tactics 4) Execution
Why does it seem the other side has all four, but we only have the last two?
3/ I want you to try to answer that question for yourself, and my spoiler alert is for the next tweet, not this one. And by all means, please comment. Let me know what your thoughts are, please.
Can you say "getting into the weeds?" I don't imagine too many will care, but for some strange reason I've decided I want to know about the Rules Package. So, here's the best version of the current package I've yet found.
2) The PDF above is the one they call "The 55 Pages."
So, knowing I do not know this language, I decide to just start reading and here's a screenshot of the first thing I find.
3) Who knew? Who had any idea? the 118th Congress begins its own rules by adopting the rules from the 117th Congress. I'd never have imagined. Okay, a bit of searching - it does NOT pop right up - and, I found this:
General Flynn's voice is heard strong and clear. He pulls incredible audiences. His analysis and writings are very powerful as well. Here's his New Year's guidance!
