Thomas Paine: American Philosopher, & Revolutionary
From 1776 through the formation of The Constitution I helped create America. Now I have returned to help save America. American Patriots must join together, speak out in free and open discussion to fight the “woke” anti-American mob, and further the cause of FREEDOM.
Election Results Quietly Digested by the Left
Did you notice how Kamala Harris ramped up her rhetoric in the final weeks of the 2024 election cycle? Her campaign, which lasted only a little over four months and was shrouded in mystery in terms of her policy initiatives, focused almost entirely on attacks and warnings against Donald Trump. He was a “convicted felon”. He was a “threat to our democracy”. He would be a “dictator”. And towards the end, he was Hitler reincarnate. The Harris message, constantly regurgitated by the Propaganda Media Complex was that sensible voters, like the “educated” left, would never consider allowing such a vile candidate to regain the White House.
All the polls indicated it would be a razor-thin race, decided by the results in seven battleground states; Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. Yet, similar to the polls in 2016, they should not have been trusted. Hillary Clinton got so confidant in the final week or so, that she didn’t even campaign in Wisconsin. When Election Day finally came, Trump supporters, who preferred to lay low ahead of time, swarmed the precincts and propelled Trump to a landslide victory in the Electoral College (312 votes) and a significant popular margin, even after more than a month of Democrat ballots magically appearing. The latest figures I could find were: [1]
Trump – 77,237,942 ; updated to 77,269,255
Harris – 74,946,837 ; updated to 74,983,555
With all the talk about MAGA Republicans not accepting the election results of the 2020 election, leading to the January 6th “insurrection” and prosecutions of Trump, it has been surprisingly quiet on the left in the aftermath of this year’s election. Sure, we saw some (supposedly) intelligent women shaving their heads and swearing off sex for four years in defiant protest of the false narrative that Trump would initiate a federal ban on abortions, but that only drew modest attention. Ironically, their cause is misdirected, as the Supreme Court decision that returned Roe v. Wade to the states, means their fight is on the state level. So much for the “educated” left. For now, we are in a mostly peaceful transition period.
But this “calm before the storm” should not be ignored. The radical Marxists who control the Democrat Party and the Propaganda Media Complex, feeling the disappointment of the Harris campaign failure are not just going to lick their wounds and wait for the next election. They have been preparing various scenarios that could turn a “cold” civil war into a tinder box, literally overnight. Due to Trump’s victory, they have plans, big plans. This is not a prediction.
In a series of essays [2] attributed to Tom Klingenstein, Chairman of the Claremont Institute, it has been revealed that what he terms the “destructive left” has actually conducted war-games to plan their actions in the event of Trump’s electoral victory, most disturbingly, a plot to stoke widespread political violence and convince the public that Trump’s efforts to quell massive civil unrest are fascist tactics. That’s why they have been pushing the narrative that “Trump is Hitler”. We could assume they are making arrangements now and will “hit the ground running” when Trump takes office, possibly on Inauguration Day. This has been discovered through actual publications.
The War-Gamers
Former Obama Pentagon appointee, Rosa Brooks, has been involved with the Transition Integrity Project (TIP), a team of wargaming officials that played out various scenarios leading up to the 2020 election, including the possibility that Trump would not concede defeat, and one of those scenarios turned real, culminating in the January 6th “attack” on the U.S. Capitol. The fact that such an event took place, and was predicted, invites more scrutiny on the motives and origins of the “insurrection”.
Was government involvement more than an allegation?
Did the FBI have undercover agents in the crowd instigating the break-in?
The bigger point is that TIP knew beforehand that Trump would likely contest the results because the relaxed voting regulations enacted in the wake of COVID, would make it easier for “election officials” (think: Democrat operatives of Obama’s 30,000+ member army of activists known as Organizing for Action) to commit massive fraud in targeted precincts, the corrupt blue cities in those battleground states.
From the New Republic article, “The Ridiculous War-Gaming of the 2020 Election” [3], published less than 2 months before the 2020 election, we can see that progressive Democrats have been scheming ways to justify subversion of the electoral process.
An excerpt reads, “For the past several months, a number of articles on what awaits us in November have referenced war games conducted by the Transition Integrity Project, a kind of pop-up think tank on the election. It counts over 100 academics, political operatives, government officials, and pundits as members, including former Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele, former Democratic National Committee Acting Chair Donna Brazile, Weekly Standard founder Bill Kristol, and Hillary Clinton’s former campaign manager John Podesta. After Trump refused to commit to conceding during that last debate in 2016, Podesta condemned him, saying Trump’s remarks had been “a tremendous mistake.” During the Transition Integrity Project’s simulation of this election in June, Podesta played a Joe Biden who’d won the popular vote but lost the Electoral College, just as Clinton did, he refused to concede.
‘In that scenario, California, Oregon, and Washington then threatened to secede from the United States if Mr. Trump took office as planned,’ The New York Times’ Ben Smith wrote last month. ‘The House named Mr. Biden president; the Senate and White House stuck with Mr. Trump. At that point in the scenario, the nation stopped looking to the media for cues, and waited to see what the military would do.’ A report from the group describes what happened in more detail—California, Oregon, and Washington threatened to secede, yes, but in order to extract a set of concessions from Trump and Republicans. With advice from President Obama, it reads, ‘the Biden Campaign submitted a proposal to 1) Give statehood to Washington, DC and Puerto Rico; 2) Divide California into five states to more accurately represent its population in the Senate; 3) Require Supreme Court justices to retire at 70; and 4) Eliminate the Electoral College, to ensure that the candidate who wins to the popular vote becomes President.’ ” The abovementioned war-game plays out a scenario whereby Trump won the 2020 Electoral College, the Constitutional method of selecting a President, but lost the popular vote to Joe Biden, similar to the 2016 election in which Hillary Clinton won the popular vote.
Under “advice from President Obama”, these conspirators decided that several west coast states could secede from the union, alter the Supreme Court, and abolish the Electoral College. That sounds like sedition. [4] Does anyone really believe any of those proposals could be accomplished without some degree of “force”? Do they expect the United States government to just agree to those terms? We can clearly see that Obama’s hand-picked war-gamer was conducting contingency plans with all sorts of radical, unconstitutional ideas and it would be naïve to presume Obama wasn’t behind the entire scheme.
The result of Brooks’ work in the 2020 election, positioned her as an expert for post-election contingency planning. It would be logical to assume she was still influential in 2024, and sure enough, there she was, teamed up with Barton Gellman to perform a series of wargames in May and June of 2024 under the auspices of the Democracy Futures Project (DFP), as an arm of the Brennan Center for Justice at New York University.
They published a series of articles on July 30th, in four separate sources, that focused on planning for a Trump victory, with recommendations on how to disrupt his presidency, including political violence, and a plot to divide the loyalties of the U.S. military. To implement the plan, they have to wait until Trump once again becomes Commander-in-Chief because they figure they can split the military into factions that follow orders and those who uphold their oaths to defend the Constitution. Their plan is to entice Trump to invoke the Insurrection Act [5] and then use their propaganda machine to paint Trump as a dictator.
Let’s see what Brooks had to say herself in The Bulwark. From an article titled “Democracy Will Suffer a Relatively Quiet Death, We Simulated It” [6],she opens with the premise that Trump “managed to eke out a narrow Electoral College victory”, and despite “sporadic clashes between protesters and counter-protesters, the nation hasn’t descended into chaos or civil war”. All looks fine from the outside, but “on the inside, the norms and institutions that constitute our democracy are crumbling”.
She takes credit for co-leading this conference of self-described experts with Barton Gellman, who authored a similar article in The Washington Post, saying “we were looking for insights into what might happen if a second Trump administration follows through on Trump’s autocratic threats”, an obvious reference to the Trump is a “threat to our democracy” rhetoric.
They conducted several scenarios, using left-wing participants as role players and in one such exercise suggested red state governors would join blue state governors in resisting efforts to federalize their National Guard units and send them to quell anti-Trump protests in major U.S. cities. They don’t consider the possibility that those “anti-Trump protests” could be more than “mostly peaceful”, or the actual justification for invoking the Insurrection Act to counter massive civil unrest, anarchy in the streets, looting and burning vast sections of those cities, all while leftist Mayors decide to stand down and allow their cities to be destroyed by violent extremists. I might suggest they read the Insurrection Act, specifically section 253, which describes conditions under which it is necessary, like protecting the rights of citizens to peacefully get to work, or school, without being threatened by violent mobs.
Towards the end, Brooks states, “political leaders who may find themselves on the outside can lay the groundwork for an opposition leadership structure, one in which figures as diverse as Kamala Harris, Mitt Romney, Liz Cheney, and Barack Obama can help provide direction, coordination, and inspiration to the millions of Americans who don’t want to see the nation slide quietly into autocracy.” You have to wonder whether Obama dictated that to her, so he could insert himself back into prominence.
These war-gamers are pure Marxists masquerading as concerned expert guardians of American values. It is perfectly clear to me where they have gotten their talking points and why the Democrat Party parroted certain buzz phrases during the 2024 election season. All the rhetoric about Trump being a “threat to our democracy”, or that Trump will govern as a fascist dictator, and claiming “Trump is Hitler”, seems to have come from these war-gamers, and likely Obama himself, as he once again is at the forefront of attempts to undermine Trump’s administration “by any means necessary”, just like he did in Trump’s first term. They created those false accusations as justification for their plan to deploy armies of activists, some peaceful, some instigators, who will storm the streets with actual chaos and violence in order to provoke Trump into using the Insurrection Act. The objective is to split the military sentiment. The old “divide and conquer” strategy that just happens to be Obama’s modus operandi (MO). What a coincidence. They have predicted an outcome that they have set up to unfold. Doesn’t that remind you of the January 6th “insurrection”?
Now you know why they have been painting Trump as Hitler and where it came from.
It was true while he was in the White House, and it’s still true today
What Should Trump’s Attorney General Do This Time?
It is utterly disgusting that the Democrat Party, hijacked by Obama and his Marxist ideologues, blindly follows such an evil despot, Hell-bent on destroying America from within. So far, they have gotten away with everything they have done, immoral and illegal alike. That must change. Everyone involved in this next planned act of anarchy, and attempt to overthrow the government, must be brought to justice and prosecuted to the fullest extent.
The Department of Justice must be thorough in its investigations, leave no stone unturned, follow the money, follow every lead, offer immunity to Lieutenants in exchange for turning “state’s witness”, go after the big fish, and root out this evil at its core.
They made it acceptable to go after former Presidents.
They weaponized the federal bureaucracy to prosecute their political enemies.
They set the precedent of persecuting their opposition.
They created false narratives and used their propaganda machine to sell lies.
They used their bully platform to repeatedly exclaim that “NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW, NOT EVEN THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES”.
But karma is a bitch and now it’s time to face justice for the actual crimes they have committed. Justice for Democrats is long overdue. The next Attorney General must serve it.
Here are a few of the federal crimes they should be aware of:
18 U.S. Code § 2385 – Advocating Overthrow of Government [7]
18 U.S. Code § 2101 – Riots [8]
18 U.S. Code § 2381 – Treason [9]
For months leading up to the election, the Democrats and their praetorian guard, the mainstream media, which I have dubbed the Propaganda Media Complex, conducted a fear campaign that warned the American people Trump would use his power to exact revenge on his political enemies. It won’t be revenge or retribution. It will be justice. We the People demand justice.
I happen to love medieval justice. Those guys knew how to keep people in line. We don’t have to resort to drawing and quartering, or disemboweling anyone in the public square. That would be too gruesome for such a civilized society. And perhaps hanging wouldn’t be the right look for Obama, but the sentence must match the crime and the penalty for treason is death. Maybe a simple beheading would be appropriate. After all, his own religion still practices that method of execution to this day, and if he is to be believed about his denial, the same people he aided and abetted would do that to him as a “non-believer”, right?
So, let me identify my “Four Aces”, the highest-level targets for the Justice Department, like the military did during the Gulf War, in which Sadaam Hussein was the Ace of Spades.
Ace of Spades: Barack Hussein Obama – treason
His leadership role (no doubt), led to the terrorist attacks at the Boston Marathon, San Bernadino, and Orlando. All of those attacks were committed by jihadis who were in Philip Haney’s DHS TECS database, a watch list of suspected terrorists, that was ordered to be scrubbed about 6 months after John Brennan received an October 19, 2011 letter signed by 57 Muslim organizations, including CAIR and ISNA, complaining of civil rights and targeting of Muslims. Virtually simultaneously, the FBI, then led by Robert Mueller, purged their counterterrorism training materials, and the Secretary of Defense, Leon Panetta, ordered Lt. Col. Matthew Dooley to cease instruction of his “Perspectives” course on Middle East culture to soon-to-be-deployed officers at the Joint Forces Staff College. All three of those Departments have only one boss, the President of the United States. Haney later testified that all three of those terrorist attacks could have been prevented had his TECS system remained in place. He was quietly murdered on February 21, 2020, while reportedly carrying a thumb drive containing “sensitive documents” that was missing from the scene.
Seems to me that Obama’s orders could be construed as “adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort” in masking terrorist activities.
Ace of Hearts: Hillary Rodham Clinton – a plethora of federal crimes, including but not limited to 18 U.S. Code § 1519 – Destruction (Alteration or Falsification) of Records in Federal Investigation.
She was the media darling, the heir-apparent to the White House who would “sachè” onto the stage like Cleopatra on a platform. The Ace of Hearts is clearly appropriate. I once did a spreadsheet on all the crimes she could have been indicted on and the grand total of her sentence would have been 1,024,132 years. The statute named above carries a sentence of 20 years for each count of deleting 33,000 emails, totaling 660,000 years alone. She could probably get off for good behavior after about 100,000 years.
Ace of Diamonds: Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr. – bribery, money laundering
When he bragged about withholding a billion dollars in aid from the Ukraine unless they fired the investigator probing Hunter’s Burisma employment, he sealed his own fate. He could buy a lot of diamonds with the millions of dollars he had laundered through the Ukraine. He probably doesn’t even know where all his money is. Maybe Hunter will inherit it.
Ace of Clubs: John Owen Brennan, Obama’s then Chief Counterterrorism Advisor (and later CIA Director) when he received the aforementioned October 19, 2011 letter – treason
He essentially clubbed the American people in the gut, by his role in pushing the requests of the Muslim organizations to scrub and purge the terrorist watch lists.
That’s my list Pam Bondi, or whoever ends up as Attorney General. We the People expect justice to be carried out in order to deter future power structures from committing such heinous acts against America by making them think twice.
Comments welcomed.

Sec. 332. Use of militia and armed forces to enforce Federal authority “Whenever the President considers that unlawful obstructions, combinations, or assemblages, or rebellion against the authority of the United States, make it impracticable to enforce the laws of the United States in any State by the ordinary course of judicial proceedings, he may call into Federal service such of the militia of any State, and use such of the armed forces, as he considers necessary to enforce those laws or to suppress the rebellion.”
Sec. 333. Interference with State and Federal law
