Comrades, today after ordering the slow drums to resound loudly, U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland delivered remarks celebrating the conviction of four Americans who were charged with Seditious Conspiracy for their conduct on January 6, 2021. Together with federal enforcer Christopher Wray and Deputy AG Lisa Monaco at his side, AG Merrick Garland warns everyone to stay in obeyance with the dictates and fiats of the regime.
Their arrest, imprisonment and conviction shall serve as a warning to any American citizen who might seek to challenge the authority of Joe Biden, the system of justice he represents, and/or the power of the United States government. The federal punishment and sentences are to be determined at a later date.
18 US Code 2384: If two or more persons in any State or Territory, or in any place subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, conspire to overthrow, put down, or to destroy by force the Government of the United States, or to levy war against them, or to oppose by force the authority thereof, or by force to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the United States, or by force to seize, take, or possess any property of the United States contrary to the authority thereof, they shall each be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both.

[Transcript] Hear ye’ Hear ye’ – Today, the Justice Department secured the conviction of four leaders of the Proud Boys for seditious conspiracy related to the January 6th attack on the Capitol.
In addition, those defendants and a fifth member of the Proud Boys were all convicted of felonies including obstructing Congress’s certification of the 2020 presidential election results and conspiring to prevent Congress and federal officers from discharging their duties.
The evidence presented at trial detailed the extent of the violence at the Capitol on January 6th and the central role these defendants played in setting into motion the unlawful events of that day.
Today’s verdict makes clear that the Justice Department will do everything in its power to defend the American people and American democracy.
Since the January 6th attack, the Justice Department has conducted one of the largest, most complex, and most resource-intensive investigations in our history.
We have worked to analyze massive amounts of physical and digital data. We have recovered devices, decrypted electronic messages, triangulated phones, and pored through tens of thousands of hours of video.
We have also benefited from tens of thousands of tips we received from the public. Following these digital and physical footprints, we were able to identify hundreds of people who, often masked, took part in the unlawful conduct on that day.
I am grateful to the Department’s prosecutors, FBI agents, investigators, analysts, and others who have worked on these cases with extraordinary diligence, skill, integrity, and courage.
Over the past two years, the Department has secured more than 600 convictions for a wide range of criminal conduct on January 6th, as well as in the days and weeks leading up to the attack.
We have secured the convictions of defendants who fought, punched, tackled, and even tased police officers who were defending the Capitol that day; who crushed one officer in a door and dragged another down a flight of stairs; who attacked law enforcement officers with chemical agents that burned their eyes and skin; and who assaulted officers with pipes, poles, and other dangerous or deadly weapons.
We have secured the convictions of defendants who obstructed the certification of a presidential election as well as the subsequent criminal investigation in the events of January 6th.
And now – after three trials – we have secured the convictions of leaders of both the Proud Boys and the Oath Keepers for seditious conspiracy – specifically conspiring to oppose by force the lawful transfer of presidential power.
Our work will continue.
At my Senate confirmation hearing just over a month after January 6th, I promised that the Justice Department would do everything in its power to hold accountable those responsible for the heinous attack that sought to disrupt a cornerstone of our democracy: the peaceful transfer of power to a newly elected government.
And as I have said repeatedly, the Department will conduct all of its work in a manner that adheres to the rule of law and honors our obligation to protect the civil rights and civil liberties of everyone in this country.
Today’s verdict is another example of our steadfast commitment to keeping those promises.
The Justice Department will never stop working to defend the democracy to which all Americans are entitled. (link)
Did you notice the left had to again change the normal meaning of words, for purposes of this lawfare “conspiracy” didn’t have to actually mean “a plan”?

The estimable Julie Kelly’s analysis of what today’s events portend.

Sobering! Thanks to the link.
Most welcome. A woman for whom the title”journalist” is well deserved.
Julie is a beast…. A credit to her profession…. Fearless….
She is one of the very few who can sadly and legitimately ask “am I, the last of my kind?”
Well stated…alas, I fear the answer would be yes, she is.
The Establishment will take him out, with the help of both sides.
“No one should doubt for a moment that the most vengeful, partisan Justice Department in U.S. history would happily hand down a criminal charge comparable to treason against a former president it opposed. Without a shred of accountability for its abusive January 6 prosecution, which has resulted in charges against more than 1,000 Americans so far with perhaps 1,000 more arrests to come, there is no reason for Smith not to go for the golden ring— or, rather, the golden handcuffs—and indict Trump on most or all of the conspiracy charges.”
“And that will be the crux of Smith’s case against Trump. Guilty verdicts in the most consequential January 6 trial will be the green light the Justice Department has been waiting for to go after him.”
Frightening that these mental midget bullies are legally obliterating their opposition with the flimsiest of manufactured excrement — whoops— evidence.
They swim in excrement daily, Lorrie. They reek of it. Their plan is structured and is being followed step by step.
I fear we are replaying the Nazi/Stalinist era now. I see nothing which indicates we are headed there. I believe we have arrived.
The US justice system is a WWF match.
the storm pence said was coming?
I regularly post the FIB website where they extol their arrest and imprisonment of Jan 6 protestors. There are more ever day. I do this for a reason, if you don’t understand what they are doing to your fellow citizens, you are next.

There is only one person standing between them and us.
Actually, no.
Initially, there was only one, but WE need a new meme; NOT to take ANYTHING from PDJT, quite the contrary.
BECAUSE of his leadership, we now have a whole host of people standing beside him, and “in the way” of those who wish us dead.
The list of names is LONG, and grows EVERY day.
True dutchman.
We must stand tall and proud along side of TRUMP.
Like you say we must be “IN THE WAY” of the enemy trying to destroy all that is good in the world.
Trump is far from alone on the front lines of this battle.
God Bless America
nah. as long as we be quiet, comply, and never do anything to raise their ire, we should be fine.
Yes, that’s what people believe. Keep you head down and mouth shut an you’ll be fine. That is the behavior that is the prerequisite to all forms of totalitarianism.
Never.
I don’t understand what happened to the “speedy trial” requirement. Can anyone explain it to me.
Will these convictions be appealed to SCOTUS?
What court were they even tried in?
I have not been able to find any court reports or transcripts.
This appears to be the docket.
United States v. NORDEAN (1:21-cr-00175)
You can usually find cases for most of the J6’ers on American Gulag
” Will these convictions be appealed to SCOTUS?”
They better be appealed at every level possible, if necessary. And Garland and Wray need to be impeached, as well.
Replace impeached with executed for Treason. After a quick trial.
Went the way of habeus corpus, which I believe was done away with by The Patriot Act (when dealing with “terrorists”)
Just remember when Antifa was burning cities down these same clowns and Kammie were claiming that Antifa were peaceful! The most disheartening issue is close to half of Americans are all in for this corrupt administration.
Just because it’s said that the country is divided in half, that polls show that positions on every issue are divided in half, and that elections seem to always come out around half, it doesn’t mean that it’s true.
I see the “half” commentary as providing an easy out when they steal or “pass” their nonsensical and unjust “laws.”
“Well, it was about half – I guess we lost my a hair… maybe next time…”
Not anything like “close to half” the # never WAS 50 percent, and has been steadily decreasing for years.
This notion that America is a 50/50 nation, is one of the biggest deceptions of our enemy, and far too many of “our” side are decieved.
I challenge you to find ANY objective, verifiable evidence to support the notion that “America is a 50/50 nation”.
YOU CAN’T. In fact, what objective evidence you can find, all points in the other direction; that we are a 60/40 nation, with US being the 60, and WE are actually INCREASING our majority, and lowering their #’s every day.
DO NOT be fooled, just cause they have repeated it, over and over, doesn’t make it TRUE, and by US repeating it, we are helping the enemy by amplifying their lie, and giving it credibility.
My estimate is more 65-70% us, 30-35% them, but yeah, all credible indicators show that we, normal humans, are in fact the majority.
“all points in the other direction; that we are a 60/40 nation, with US being the 60, and WE are actually INCREASING our majority, and lowering their #’s every day.” Then comes voting day.
The fatal flaw of western civilization is that civilized citizens have no defense against rioters, crooked pols and LEO and other similar scumbags.
Antifa can throw milkshakes laced with cement powder at Andy Ngo and all he can do is enjoy the broken skull and concrete burns. Even Tucker chided himself for initially wanting to see an Antifa punk get boot f***ed, as if immediate retributive karmic justice is a bad thing.
If citizens were allowed, indeed encouraged, to beat the living shit out of rabble rousers up to and including the Kyle Solution, there might be less rabble rousing.
Until such a time, the minority will wield the shield of ‘civilized behavior’ to stop the majority dead in its tracks.
I’m not an advocate for a civil war, but unfortunately we are headed in that direction.
Time always tells the best story, and it’s running short. 🙏
All true, Dutch… I’m not even sure they are as high as 40%…. The problem is that they hold too many levers of power and, with levels of power, come bully pulpits and megaphones….
They are masters of propaganda and, with the bully pulpits and megaphones, they create the illusion that they are 40% or 50%….
I think there are 10%-15% who are hard-core leftists and way too many (like all of my siblings and too many of my friends) who think that the left is filled with well-intended, classical liberal JFK-ish Democrats like our Moms and Dads….
This illusion and the acceptance of it are exhausting….
But we marshal on, Dutch….. We can sleep when we’re dead!
This reply is late to the party, so… A thought:
Maybe we can appeal to ‘someone’ with vast personal resources and intimate knowledge of technology and a hint of respect for American values to build a hack-proof means to check / verify our true identities and then we vote on that platform. It could stand as a ‘check’and balance against the corrupted counting that creates the too- familiar 49/51 result. I’d even pay $8 for something truly reliable.
Think about WHICH businesses they mostly burned down and WHERE.
They hate free thinking black people that do not comply. Who where those business owners again? I figure that the local black merchants and there locations had to be targeted are to take out so many. Possibly they were afraid people might break free of the program.
I do not believe that close to half the country agrees with these dicktators. Many of them may have initially, but I think eyes are being opened each and every day that they wreak their havoc on regular citizens.
If the House Oversight continues to bring the obiden family crimes into the spotlight, and the Regime continues to lie to us (Karime stating that immigration is down 90% because of Joe’s administration, etc; that inflation is temporary as thousands continue to lose their jobs, etc) the people will wake up.
Look at the great response to Bud Light’s stupid decision to use a tranny to promote their beer. Look at the great response to Fox News firing their best TV host. We’re starting to make a dent.
I think your way off with your prediction.I would say there would be maybe 10%of people who would back the gov’t.The battle of Athens was a pivotal point in Americas history when in 1946 the towns people stood up to the gov’t who had been intimidating and usurping their authority which saw the gov’t thrown in jail.
He will have his day at the Last Judgement but not have a word he can utter in his own defense.
I hear ya…but I just don’t feel like waiting…
Me either, Mr. Remington
Signed,
John Moses Browning
Nope. We need to stand up now.
We will not comply.
Just curious when was last time somebody convicted of these charges ? – not counting maybe some German spies in WW2 ~ seems overcharging – Pretty rare I bet .
It is rare, but there were cases in the 1970s and 1990s that resulted in conviction, and a militia group case where defendants were acquitted of the seditious conspiracy charge (convicted of weapons charges) in 2012:
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2022/jan/28/seditious-conspiracy-charges-trial-oath-keepers-us-court
Just one thing Mr. Garland,
Now that you have your convictions for sedition and conspiracy, and you have those thousands of hours of video you used to find the criminals, may we please see them in whole, unredacted, so we can see how you and your cohorts have saved the democracy we so deserve?
By the way, have fun on the 10th, practicing your democratic principals. We are all counting on you.
Somehow, apparently, it is being reported that Newsmax got there hands on some of the hours an hours of video that Tucker Carlson received from McCarthy! Stay Tuned!!!! 🤔
Where are all the journalists viewing the J6 footage that McCarthy was making available to peruse?
If Trump ever gets back in , will he pardon these people ?
Yes, that’s what he’s said. Also he has been providing financial support to some J6 families.
You have to ask?
Yes, still pissed Assange and Snowden didn’t get a pardon .
Yet thieves did !
It’s all a skit…fake, phony, lies, acting…and they know that we know that all of this is bullshit. THERE WILL BE A RECKONING DAY FOR THESE TRAITORS !!
Wow, all that detriangulating and surveillance video review and still no clue about the ACTUAL terrorist who left bombs to explode and kill innocent civilians at the party headquarters. But thank God they got the guys who encouraged each other to delay a floor vote. I feel so safe.
When we watched 2000 Jackasses, they told us triangulation was phoney, didn’t they?
And Thomas Jefferson stated that these types of dual standards is the definition of tyranny.
The SEDITIOUS CONSPRACY was November 2020 when the democrats used MAIL-IN ballots, illegal legislation via the CRIMINAL JUDICIAL SYSTEM, corrupt VOTER ROLLS, MULES, NO VOTER ID, allowing voting to continue for months, vote counting machines hooked up to the internet to change vote counts, STOPPING the VOTE process in swing states to find votes for FJB – ballot harvesting, interfering in the election via the FBI, CIA, Zuckerberg, Soros, etc. etc. etc. Even ACT BLUE is assigning illegal donations through their voters without their knowledge or CONSENT. The democrats. They keep coming up with more SCHEMES to STEAL ELECTIONS.
No, NOT “Democrats”!
Globalists of both wings of the Uniparty.
Do you honestly believe the massive operation in 2020 could POSSIBLY have been pulled off, WITHOUT active complicity from Republicans; Governors, SoS’s, State A.G.’S and County and State elections officials?
Nobody can possible be that naive or clueless.
The thorough, complete deconstruction OF the 2020 election steal, conducted by “the red team” (and with most of the info made public) makes it abundantly clear REPUBLICANS were fully and deeply involved.
To continue to repeat the lie that “Democrats” stole 2020, only dispays your ignorance of reality.
Well said Dutchman.
Never mind. I just retracted my response to you.
Amen, JackT!
I sincerely hope all 3 of them get an excruciatingly painful, lingering terminal illness. Something that takes a long time but hurts worse everyday.
I like to envision them burning in the eternal lake of fire.
But, that’s just me.
Personally i visualize a 100MT nuke hitting the ground right as they get out of their cars one morning
How about the same treatment as the J6 prisoners, right down to 24/7 isolation and sadistic guards. No phone calls, no visitors, no computer. The D.C. version of a French oubliette. These people should experience what they have forced upon others, which I guess makes me an eye-for-an-eye kind of gal…
They ended it with Protecting a Democracy. We are a Constitutional Republic. Get it right MERRICK!
But Merrick DID get it right.
He protected what they wanted to, democracy, which in the purest form, by source which included wiki lol, is Fascism because the people are The Party and The Party is The State. Which does not abide the USA Constitution which protects the Individuals, especially from The State.
Just an aside, 0bama was very Fascist with his massive increase and crush of Government Regulations which kill business because it is under government control.
Unelected Regimes have consequences. That was the whole point about the protests and notice how nobody in the fake Republican Congress is looking into the fraud we all witnessed. Instead they’re are setting the stage for it to happen again.
Wasn’t it Monaco who was the cause of why the FBI didn’t get the warnings about the 9/11 hijackers? Wasn’t that their excuse back then for why warnings were sent but they did nothing?
No…Jaime Gorelick during Bubba’s admin…
Blame the jurors too. Blame them very much. They too are haters.
Time people woke up. There are fellow citizens who hate you and your kids and grandchildren.
Is there any decent person in Washington, D.C.? No there is not a decent person in Washington. Since that is the case, you cannot get a fair trial in the District of Communism.
There are some illegal aliens from central America who aren’t awful but the native born whites and blacks (jury pool) are all truly awful human beings.
It’s all Democrats and other leftists. No matter who they are people need to understand if your family, friends, or neighbors are Democrats they are ok with you being killed or jailed. They hate us.
You are on that jury + the government is hell bent on conviction + they know who you are.
What does that equal?
Did you get to pick the jurors?
Who has that kind of ability?
Who is corrupt enough to stack the deck with fake jurors?
Who has the means and opportunity along with motive?
We all know the answer.
The jurors, the judge, the prosecutors, all haters of We The People. But, why??? Are they being paid, if not in literal money, in jobs or positions???
How many people here ,thought about going, and didn’t?👋
I was working but wanted to be there. Now I’ll probably be arrested for harboring a seditious thought crime.
No way. Our family and many friends discussed that it would be a set up on steroids.
Much to our sadness, it was.
Nope would be my answer, which allows me to say:
John from your today’s and prev posts … sensing a honey pot … or a very very very very very very very very very naive person … but no …have to go with a FIB honey pot
I’m not Shure what you’re implying sunrei ?
I almost went , and I’m dam glad I didn’t .
Im thinking this is why I’m not on social media anymore.🤔
That this insanity continues is yet another dark stain on the conservative movement and its leaders. Neither the Dems nor the GOP fear them. They are irrelevant.
All those far left jurors have to live with themselves following this decision. But when you have no morals, it follows that you also have no conscience.
A strong case could be made against the ENTIRE Joe Biden Obama Regime-
18 US Code 2384: If two or more persons in any State or Territory, or in any place subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, conspire to overthrow, put down, or to destroy by force the Government of the United States, or to levy war against them, or to oppose by force the authority thereof, or by force to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the United States, or by force to seize, take, or possess any property of the United States contrary to the authority thereof, they shall each be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both. (link)
I would like to know what is the “force” they used, as none of them had weapons as far as I know.
Reread Sundances quoting of the statute,, but this time leave OUT the two words “by force” every time they are used, and the “to levy war” which clearly involves the use of force.
Best to read it out loud.
Read this way, pretty much everything it lists, is Constitutionally protected.
WE, according to the Bill of rights, have the right to assembly.
We have the right to openly call for the overthrow of the Government, as many have done.
As long as we do not call for using FORCE to do so.
Ergo, the use of FORCE is the “key element of the crime” which is why news reports, and Garlands announcement, focus on use of FORCE, whether true or made up.
And, if you trap a bunch of people in a tunnel, release teargas, attack them with batons, they will USE FORCE, to try to get free.
Exactly 💯 💯
You have got it correct 👌👍
We are not being ruled by “our” government. The corporate global cartel is illegally, without being elected, controlling all three branches, the banks, regulations, food supply, medical/medicine, education, and every facet of our lives. A lot more than Bud products need to be disposed of down the sewer.
Exactly…We the People no longer have a government. This is the American version of an illegal Junta. The military may or may not be involved but this is in no way a government operating as it should. The Constitution means nothing to this evil group.
Garland has re-written the rules and he can…no one in the useless and feckless CONgress will challenge him or Monaco. Traitors…all of them.
“conspire, put down, or to destroy the government of the United States” is constitutionally protected???
he looks like the salt monster from the original star trek series, The Man Trap.
I’m going to look the salt monster up to see a picture 🙂 Isn’t Garland pathetic 🙂

That’s the Democratocracy, which has nothing to do with democracy or representative democracy or representative republic. Democratocracy is totalitarian statism.
This gives them the possibility of going after President Trump for sedition.
Over and over again, I am filled with the awareness of their personal evil and evil intent. So many times on CTH, all I can think to write is “These people are evil incarnate.” So, I don’t post because it is so repetitive, but it nearly bowls me over each time it is on display.
The Stalinists have taken over America.
It’s ok, you know see people like Jim Jordan, MTG, James Comer, Chuck Grassley, Ron Johnson and a host of Republicans decide it’s time they are out for blood, namely FJBs blood!!! Yesterday was the first time in probably forever that I saw a searing look in these Republicans eyes saying we are going to hang your arse FJB with the revelation of a bribery scheme with a foreign government while he was VP. If they get what they are after with regard to this report or document described by the whistle blowers and proceed with impeachment next Fall, it will be Merrick Garland and these others whose arses will be puckered up because if Uncle Joe is forced out, probably by the Democrats doing, he, Jack Smith, Chris Wray and others will be twisting in the wind as open targets!!! 🎯
LETS BE REAL .
If January 6th Had Been a Real “Insurrection”
https://newswithviews.com/if-january-6th-had-been-a-real-insurrection/
And despite the repeated media phrase “armed insurrection,” the arrest records refuted this narrative as they were missing gun possession charges. Who goes to an insurrection unarmed? The DOJ claimss the flags some carried were weapons, and with that crumb, the media did the heavy lifting.
I’ve been saying the same thing – there are many more of us than there are of them. Even if they called out the military there are still more of us than them. You are right – we can do whatever we feel led to do.
after reading 18 US Code 2384:
can anyone tell me why the Obama and Biden administrations are not in jail?
(ok, I know why but had to put it out there!)
18 US Code 2384: Sounds like they should start arresting themselves. They are guilty.
Mr. Garland is a conspirator in sedition against the American People.
This needs to be appealed all the way to scotus….
And by damn, scotus better do their job and hear it.
I cannot express my level of anger and disgust.
Our government is morally bankrupt and not in any way owed our allegiance on any level.
Just sayin’.
It hurts worse when some of your family voted for it
Consent withdrawn.
The social contract is null and void
.
Congress could and should strip jurisdiction from D.C. over all federal cases. In fact any venue where the largest employers are the federal government or people working for businesses or offices who’s work mainly involves government activities e.g. lobbying, representation before the government or working involving any aspect of government, law, legislation, regulations, services, or access.
The whole J6 thing was ENTRAPMENT and wholly illegal.
While BLM and Antifa get bankrolled by George Soros and his ilk, soley to disrupt and destabilize society.
The trap has now been set.
After Trump is elected the 47th President in 2024 and inaugurated in 2025, if he pardons or commutes the sentences of any of them, President Trump’s action will be characterized as having “given aid or comfort” to those who have engaged in insurrection and will be used as a justifcation for yet ANOTHER impeachment proceeding, this time under Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment. THAT one just might stick given today’s convictions.
My suggestion to President Trump, is to put Turley and Dershowitz on regular monthly retainers to advise him through the minefield that has just been laid, and to completley ignore the crackpot utterings of everyone else.
Trump 2024
Really think they will allow Trump to win in 2024? They are more likely to use these Proud Boys convictions as a roadmap to indict & convict him in a DC kangaroo court, thus removing his eligibility to even run for president next year.
🙁
Do you think Trump and his Team are just sitting back and waiting on what The Leftists do? I think NOT!
That won’t remove his ability to run. Constitutionally it is possible to run for president from jail and historically that has happened. President Trump has made it clear he will continue in the race no matter what.
It’s pretty easy to get a conviction when the three letter agencies are able to get their muppet puppets on the jury.
Just stack the jury with spooks and slam dunk wins every time.
Kangaroo Court….
“If two or more persons in any State or Territory, or in any place subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, conspire to overthrow, put down, or to destroy by force the Government of the United States…”
Hmm…
Does that include members of the DOJ, CRS, FBI, IC, DOS, HHS, DHS, FEC, DOTreasury, DOC, DOEd, DOI, DOTrans, DOE, DOD, ATF, FDA, CDC, NIH, CMS, Legislative branch, Justice branch and all the other alphabet agencies that colluded, conspired, blackmailed, bribed and participated in a Coup D’etat and overthrow of the constitutional republic and subsequent coverup over the past 6+ years?
Is there not one person left in the Department of Justice that has a shred of decency or moral courage?
Anyone???
NOPE. Going a bit further, there isn’t anyone in Washington DC with a shred of decency or moral courage, which is precisely why we are in the dire situation we are in. Garland should be impeached, along with Monaco. I believe SHE is giving the marching orders, via the puppet master behind Osama Obama.
Correct, Lisa is Merrick’s handler.
We’re too far gone now. The only way of clawing back is to starve the beast. Should Trump be elected, an executive order ending tax withholding being enacted on day one — plus the Trump DoJ winking that tax avoidance is way too low on their list of priorities — is the only way to do it. Vengeful citizens will happily join the effort.
Later time? Supreme Court? When was the last time an American citizen was charged with sedition? Sorry, I have more questions than answers. Our dear nation has deterioted rapidly. Long time coming but they are putting their foot down on the gas. Brace for to the floor max.
French National Anthem – “La Marseillaise” (FR/EN)
Everyone should find the text to the French National Anthem and listen to a rousing rendition of the song. That anthem is going to be a battle cry for us in the not too distant future.
One cure for the litigation crisis would be to require federal courts to change of venue away from any city having single party rule for more than 25 years. If the mayor and/or city council have been in control of one party for that long it is doubtful that a fair trial could be had for political minorities. Of course, the phony “nonpartisan” elections (where the reality is that only one party exists) would have to be addressed, perhaps by reference to the past 25 years of Presidential election voting.
I can’t even finish this. I wish everyonw would knock it off with this completely irresponsible talk of secession or “national divorce.” There IS NO provision for it in the constitution regardless of what Madison or Jefferson may have privately thoughjt about it. It was tried once, and settled.
Any state that thinks it wants to secede from the United States should be prepared for US Airborne troops landing on the grounds of their capitol in advance of the tanks to arrest all legislators who voted for it, as well as a governor who signed it, and they will all be tried for sedition and insurrection. And they will all be shot.
This talk is breathtakingly irresponsible. Knock it off. And anyone who thinks it is somehow patriotic to promote this should think hard about how the enemies of the United States would dance with glee at watcbing us spllit apart. And those here who hate America and want to see us destgroyed are certainly promoting this talk.
Where in the Constitution does it say a state cannot secede?
did he say “without fear or favor”?
Alan Vera, a well known Texas election integrity voice, died today – at the Capitol doing what he was known for.
Peace to his family.

Nuts
Nuts is right. The big fly in their little jar of ointment is that the corporate entities occupying Washington, DC, are not the Government of the United States. There is no seditionn possible against a corporation; it only exists on paper.
Need I remind you we’d be in an age of World-wide peace & Prosperity if it wasn’t for the “government” of the U.S. thwarting the will of the American People.
Best post of the day!
And pretty much the rest of the the western world.
We really were that close to draining the swamp too. Obviously the swamp knew the game was up.
So they did the only thing they could to stop it. Lets fake a pandemic!
Once again projecting their crimes on others.
Exactly, this instigated riot stoped the challenge the congress had started before ‘the disturbance’! Stopped the legal challenge, then expedited the certification by Pelosi an emergency session, with Pence’s full endorsement to stop any further challenges!
