When you are done listening to the talking heads today. Read this manual. You will enjoy it. And you will get it. 1/6 was well planned, poorly executed, still viable with some change ups as most manufactured insurgencies are. irp.fas.org/doddir/army/at…
The coordinated elements: the TOC at Willard, social media outreach, march, speeches, break-in were all designed to create the impression of a coup and a gov in distress, thereby energizing the next level of disbelievers. About 25% of the U.S. population newsweek.com/82-fox-news-97…
Intellectuals think that "fact checking" or "examining the truth" will reverse this. Nope. Stupid is as Stupid does. Once the narrative is set. You won't change opinions of those who "believe". Much like cults where logic or facts contrast fanciful tales. drsteveeichel.com/about-cults
But wait..smart people join cults too right? Yes. Because human perception and reactions can be manipulated. Very easily. Its called marketing in the normal world, psyops in the military. People got played. google.com/search?client=…
In war we get that an equally stressing narrative must be created. We did it with the Nazis. South Africa did it with apartheid. Hell the French did it with guillotines. Nothing shatters a myth like the mundane examination of evil. nationalww2museum.org/war/topics/nur…
One of America's favorite things is to pull down statues. We did it to Saddam in Firdos Square to great media fanfare. Burning MAGA hats or pulling Trump signs from hotels might have a minor effect. But the public needs to move on theguardian.com/world/2021/jul…
Freedom of speech does not include incitement to riot. People died, were wounded and traumatized by Trump's inexcusable actions. A nation's legacy of peaceful transition or power was forever injured. Trump's motivations and actions were clear. #LockHimUp ktla.com/news/nationwor…
Lock him up? Harsh? If any other person and group with proven financial and supportive links to foreign nations continued to support and foment fraud and violence against the government inside this country then he is a clear and present danger to the U.S. foreignpolicy.com/2020/09/08/10-…
Let's move past argueing "politics", "attempt", "demonstration" or "plot" and lets get some earnest legal discussion on what extraordinary punishment and examples are in order to punish and prevent the ongoing abuse of the constitution and law by Trump. findlaw.com/criminal/crimi…
and lets do one more thing. Is the system of government and two party division sustainable or just a frustrating mess? This Canadian guy says we are screwed. theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl…
Is Trump contrite? Nope. "Right-wing media outlets have spent the past year laying the groundwork for a contradictory counter-narrative about Jan. 6. Their storyline at once portrays the riot as a nonviolent tourist march through the Capitol" thedailybeast.com/trumps-favorit…
What are the TrumpTurds in the punchbowl talking about today? Remorse? Sadness? Kindness? Nope. Same. Same. Do these people do anything constructive? Or are the marching orders to be destructive? #FloodTheZoneWithShit. breitbart.com/clips/2022/01/…
I'll end this thread with a collection of photos from AP. This upper left image in particular is one of the more Orwellian images I have seen. apnews.com/article/photos…

I love a good revolution. Sadly Kazakh and Russian troops are just mowing unarmed protestors down without any concern. There was a time that the U.S. would get involved.
The origins of the revolt are pretty simple: Russian backed Dictator doesn't give a shit about living conditions. Govt wisely resigns. Leader blames "terrorists" for revolt. Shooting starts. Standard Russian playbook. crimethinc.com/2022/01/06/the…
Same source does a nice recap of the 2020 revolt against Alexander Lukashenko another Russia puppet leader in Belarus. Bad guys win every time. crimethinc.com/2021/06/30/bel…

“Is that what you thought when you looked at the mob ransacking the Capitol, destroying property, literally defecating in the hallways, rifling through the desks of senators and representatives, hunting down members of Congress?” #DarthCheneyInTheHouse. nytimes.com/live/2022/01/0…
In the alternate universe of riots against governments. Putin has fabulous and poignant timing. Since the National Guard were blocked by seditionists, I wonder if Donnie dreamed about using Russians to restore order in DC. This is the new 2022 thing. nytimes.com/live/2022/01/0…
There are two aspect of Trump's failed coup plan that intrigued me. First was the expectation that the left was going to come out to "fight" against his fake mob and the second was that he was going to declare a national emergency because of that violence. Very Putin of him.

Let the acridness of the scabrous image sink in. Then ask why Mr "I Wanted to Train Young Boys in a Italian Convent to be Crusaders" Bannon is mad at Donnie for not putting some PSI in his media outrage penis pump. rawstory.com/steve-bannon-d…
Rasputin had clearer skin and maybe a little bit more luck with the ladies.
You think I am being silly? Nope. Here is Bannon's partner in crime: Miles Kwok for the tacky political insurgency dance video win.

"Hannity's texts to Mark Meadows... illustrate for the umpteenth time a clear breach of traditional news media ethics by Hannity" News media? Ethics? Since when was Hannity and his ilk other than well coifed newstainment talking heads? " aka talk show host edition.cnn.com/2022/01/05/med…
I guess it started with Fox and Bill O'Reilly... people forgot that radio and TV hosts are not actually journalists. They read shit off of teleprompters for money.
I sat in camps while young jihadis listened to and watched fake disciples like Bin Laden and Dr Z. They would then expound and get angry on the ills of the world. I see exact parallels between US radio hosts and slope pated disciples who flocked to DC. atlanticcouncil.org/in-depth-resea…

Cholistan better known as Bahawalpur. Town has some history. Mostly ISI/CIA stuff. Had a coffee with the guy who ran the secret air ops related to snatching bin Laden and sneaky stuff. Famous for August 17, 1988. Why would Maximus be running weapons here?washingtonpost.com/archive/politi…
That is from "Disruption, Inside the Largest Counterterrorism Investigation in History by Aki J. Peritz (2021)" The UAE/KSA has always wanted a rapid reaction force in Afghanistan and have access to the eastern border of Iran. Not sure if this is the start of that force.
Maximus is the new air bridge for weapons supply after the UAE was busted by the UN using a collection of janky cutouts in Central Asia. Guy that answers the phone on the secret air bills insists its a falafel shop. UAE intel should have used a dry cleaner as a front.
