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.

4/ A huge part of the answer is that they have been community organizing for 100 years longer than we have. You simply CANNOT organize community level action with ALL FOUR ELEMENTS.

5/ The situation is worse, though, and by far. You're not going to like this answer, and yes, we have discussed it many times. The answer is the evil Saul Alinsky and his damnable 13 Rules For Radicals. Here's the book for free:

6/ If you're not able to read the book, and I would never blame you, then at least peruse these rules...

7/ If you're only to look at the rules, allow me to offer some guidance (although we need a corps of MAGA Leaders will read, study, and master Alinsky's work). Try not judge the rules as good, bad, moral, immoral, etc. Just take them in. I'll explain why.

8/ These rules work. They succeed. And we on the right have been decimated by a tiny handful of rule-obeying adherents on the left. If we fail to understand these rules, we will never, as in NEVER catch up to them, let alone sava America. There's more.

9/ Alinsky was an absolute, evil genius. He has hidden doctrine and strategy inside his rule structure so that his followers need not break their brains over such. All they need do is comply. Thing is, on our side, compliance alone cannot, will not, and should not be our method.

10) We need all four elements, and we need them at every level of organization. We need intelligent, self-directed patriots, not sycophantic minions. Our methods require righteousness and that gives us an incredible power.

11) I have to stop myself now, with just that much. The #J6Challenge we face simply demands we get our part right. I will keep doing my homework til I'm ready for the promised #J6Thread. Hang in there, and read Alinsky...you know...if you can...
