Pre-insurrection speaker John Eastman goes full Calhoun, calling for restrictions on internal movement between states and the formation of mobs for "high intensity" demonstrations in cities.

Eastman goes on to propose that states make payments in cryptocurrencies to subvert the US dollar.
Here's a call for nullification, to be invoked "if under color of the law the feds egregiously subvert individual civil rights," which Eastman admits would "produce the highest level of direct state-federal confrontation."
"...they might be seen as constituting stepping stones to complete severance."
Despite the violent ransacking of the US Capitol by Trump supporters, Eastman laments that "only one side of our cold civil war has thus far shown any real resolve" and threatens "the dissolution of our republic and its framework of freedom" if his demands aren't appeased.
Co-author Stephen Balch, a senior fellow at the Claremont Institute, wrote an extraordinary piece in November calling on Trump supporters to "stretch institutional bonds to a degree that genuinely alarms our conniving subverters."

Balch: "Today, we’re back to the human default, wherein 'those who have the power take and those hold who can.'"
Balch: "even the most conscientious jurist will judge the wind as well as the law... our strategy must buttress legal arguments with formidable public acts."
Balch: "the president must now lead his followers into America's streets and squares. They must especially flock to the capitol complexes of all the critical states and register indignant protest... make midnight (and televised) arrests of top perps."
Balch: "And if we fail...we will have laid the necessary foundation for a continuing unconventional struggle..."

American Greatness: "We Need to Defend the Miracle of Vaccination" amgreatness.com/2019/08/28/we-…
"...permitting nonmedical exemptions from vaccination is a threat to individual children and to the community at large."

They’re really showing us who they are, aren’t they? You’d think the anti-anti- crowd would be angriest of all about how their brand is being tarnished by authoritarianism, fascism, ethnonationalism, etc…
“They find it tolerable” is probably the best you can say about them.
They find it tolerable that declared fascists have major platforms in conservative media.

These pundits live in a self-imposed fantasy land. “Our chosen ones would never pander to the antivax sentiment that’s become endemic on the right, and shame on you for daring to make such an implication.”
The funny thing is that these same people would say “Trump isn’t a cause, he’s a symptom.” And they had a point. Trump was a symptom of a conservative movement that lost its way, and a feckless political class that fell in line behind him.
Yet their favored candidates, no they can’t be symptoms of the movement that produced Trump. They’re causes! No one tells them what to do!

I'd like to see the 1/6 Select Committee invite former Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos to read her resignation letter aloud.

Former Secretary of Transportation Elaine Chao could also explain why she resigned immediately following the Capitol insurrection.
They should also call former Trump Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney, who resigned as US envoy to Northern Ireland after 1/6.

Mulvaney explained that other senior officials "are choosing to stay because they're worried the president might put someone worse in."

Vance in 2016: “In nominating Trump, Republicans have come full circle: The party of Lincoln has become the party of the white man. And that man has become extremely cynical.”
nationalreview.com/2016/08/race-r…
Vance: “The reality is not that black Americans enjoy special privileges. In fact, the overwhelming weight of the evidence suggests that the opposite is true.”
“Getting whipped into a frenzy on conspiracy websites, or feeling that distant, faceless elites dislike you because of your white skin, doesn’t compare.”
