In 1946, a small town of Athens, Tennessee, became a true battleground, as a siege was laid on the town jail by crowd mostly consisted of WWII veterans who decided to take justice into their own hands, as the local politics were plagued by corruption, police brutality and electoral fraud.
The political turmoil was present prior to the Second World War, when an influential political figure in from Memphis, Edward Hull “Boss” Crump, appointed Paul Cantrell as the candidate for Sheriff in 1936. Cantrell won the election in what became known as the “vote grab of 1936”.
Around that time a system of fees was introduced in the Sheriff’s office, which meant that a fee would be paid per arrest. The system proved to be very dysfunctional ― shady arrests were made, often without substantial evidence, which also included numerous fines for “drunkenness” and “fee grabbing” from tourists and travelers on a similar pretext. In a period between 1936 and 1946, it is estimated that more than 300,000 dollars amounted to these fees.
In the meantime, Cantrell ran for State Senate, leaving his trusty deputy, Pat Mansfield, in charge. The racquet worsened, and the local population was greatly displeased. After several investigations by the U.S. Department of Justice failed to make a dent in this lucrative violation of authority, the situation reached its boiling point.
During wartime, thousands of men from the McMinn County, which includes Athens, joined the fight against fascism overseas. The shortage of able men led to low criteria in employing law-enforcement officers, which often included ex-convicts with violent criminal records.
As the war ended in 1945, around 3,000 soldiers from McMinn returned home, only to find that the corruptive local government was stronger than ever. Apart from the sheriff’s office, the corrupt clique, controlled by E. H. Crump held the local media, schools, and pretty much all of the government institutions.
The GI’s decided to respond to this. During the 1946 local elections, they formed a non-partisan political option, stating their candidates. Knox Henry, a decorated veteran of the North African campaign, was elected by the GI party to run against Cantrell who was once again running for Sheriff, while his former deputy Mansfield was holding the chair.
Due to prior scams involved in local elections, the GI’s pointed out their slogan ― Your Vote Will Be Counted As Cast.
In addition, a precaution measure was made ― another veteran, Bill White, organized a militia which was to observe the voting process in case Cantrell and Mansfield tried to rig them again. The veteran militia adopted the name The Fighting Bunch, and pistols were handed out to around 60 men who joined in.
The elections scheduled for the 1st of August 1946 were followed by a number of incidents. On one of the polling places in Athens, an elderly African American farmer called Tom Gillespie was refused to cast his vote by Sheriff Mansfield’s patrolman, C.M. “Windy” Wise.
Wise used racists slurs, despite the presence of a protesting GI poll watcher, and denied Gillespie his right to vote. The deputy then hit Gillespie with a brass knuckle. The farmer dropped his ballot and tried to run away. In response, Wise pulled out his gun and shot him in the back.
This event sparked more quarrel. After a few stand-offs between Sheriff Mansfield’s deputies and the GI militia, a crowd was gathered in protest of the obvious violation of protocol and the clear intention of the administration to rig the election and keep the office despite the will of the people.
The drop that spilled the cup was the arrest and brutal beating of Bob Hairrell, who was one of the poll watchers. Hairrell protested when a girl was brought in by the deputies to cast her ballot, despite the fact that she had no poll tax receipt and who was not listed in the voter registration. The girl also seemed to be underage.
In response to Hairrell’s protest, he was arrested, and the voting process was halted on that polling place. The ballot box, together with the handcuffed GI was taken to the county jail in the town of Athens.
After hearing this, Bill White ordered his men to break into the National Guard Armory to steal weapons. After they looted the armory, White’s fighting bunch was prepared for combat. They had 60 Enfield rifles, two Thompson sub-machine guns and enough ammo to start a minor war in the McMinn County.
When the polls closed, all ballot boxes were transported to the same jail. Allegedly, White responded to the given situation by saying:
Boy, they doing something. I’m glad they done that. Now, all we got to do is whip on the jail.
Very soon, a siege was laid on the county jail. Paul Cantrell, Pat Mansfield, and around 50 or more deputies were caught red-handed while counting the votes without the presence of the second party. The GI’s occupied the second floor of a bank that was located right across the street from the jail. The high ground gave them a strategic advantage, as they were able to return fire with a barrage anytime someone took a shot from the jail.
Cantrell and his partners were pinned down. The GI’s knew that the situation had to be resolved quickly before the authorities send in reinforcements and start a potential bloodbath.
Some deputies who were outside the jail tried to lift the siege but without success. Soon the captives within the building were running through the back door, leaving their weapons behind. White ordered that the escapees pass, but a number of deputies together with Cantrell and Mansfield refused to surrender.
Then the militia threw Molotov cocktails on the building but failed to create any substantial damage. At one point, an ambulance car arrived. White and his men held their fire, as they expected that it was to evacuate the wounded from the jail. An immediate ceasefire was in effect. To everyone’s surprise, the ambulance served for Cantrell and Mansfield to slip through, while leaving their men behind.
White’s top priority now was to secure the ballot boxes. Rumors of reinforcements were circulating among the men and time was of the essence.
Several dynamite sticks were thrown on the jail, each of them causing damage to the building and its surroundings. Eventually, the doors were breached, and the rest of the deputies surrendered.
In front of the jail, an angry mob was gathered, and several Mansfield’s men were badly beaten, including Wise who shot Tom Gillespie earlier that day.
Riots ensued, causing material damage all over the town. Police cars, as well as deputies’ private vehicles were largely targeted by the mob.
In the aftermath of the riots, the votes were finally counted and the GI party candidate, Henry Knox, was elected Sheriff of the McMinn County. (read more)
This is what it is going to take.
It’s unfortunate, but you are right. The key is not to accede to soft hearts and stop at winning. The cancer must be excised from the body for the body to live. Harden your hearts-do what must be done.
Look what they’re doing to Trump!
And Giuliani, and everyone who believed in the Bill of Rights. I never really liked the guy, but what we’re seeing is simply beyond. They truly do not care about appearances anymore. The only way is to turn that heat to full boil on the frog. When they used to use finesse in their gradual boiling, they now wield ostentatious displays of sheer might and power. Overt bullying is now the strategy.
That’s exactly WHY they are doing it, to scare anyone else who might be thinking about a rebellion.
The slimeballs that run things now have many more ways to deal with the “riffraff”
The similar actions today will require mules with IT knowledge in addition to being at the physical locations of ballot Frauds.
Militias surrounding the vote counting centers in the shady counties like maricopa with continued eyes on the counting and video surveillance watching for inside shenanigans and deliveries of additional ballots, etc.
Much of the cheating was able to be done because the poll watchers left their posts on election night.
And it was just regular people who captured video of the late night deliveries. And remember how much fraud was captured in Detroit because they didn’t know the center had new CCT installed.
Secret camera crews from James okeefe should be stationed as poll watchers and election monitors in every sketchy county.
The militias would be WIPED OUT BY TARGETED DRONE STRIKES BY LAW ENFORCEMENT!!! IF YOU DON’T THINK THEY WOULDN’T DO,IT YOU BETTER GO BACK AND WATCH WHAT HAPPENED AT WACO IN 1993!!! A mass gathering by armed folks like this is all the excuse they would need!!! Folks, I served in Iraq and saw the way you fight against an organized and trained law enforcement and military force!!! The insurgents and terrorists used guerrilla tactics utilizing IEDs and other improvised booby traps along with surprise sniper, bomb and mortar attacks which did damage!!! Those are the tactics (surprise) you use against superior forces!!!
Escalation along these lines is to be planned for but not feared. Casualties will be significant if the ‘enemy’ chooses this path. Mules will own the weapons of war soon enough to limit casualties. The ‘enemy forces” that show up first with drones and other weapons will melt away if we are resolute and serious in our planning.
Nothing BUT 1 ONE THING — can stop your enemy from using ‘forces you paid for and formed originally to protect you’ if this is indeed their intent and only one thing limits casualty to our side…
THE IMMEDIATE APPLICATION OF FORCE.
Your warnings and words about asymmetry and not gathering will be used.
Go study the American Revolution or any Revolution for that matter! The first three years of the war up until the Battle of Kings Mountain in 1781 were mostly guerrilla surprise ambush operations and sneak attacks by General Washington and his still ragtag army and the militia units from the colonies!!! It wasn’t until the last two years that an adequately staffed (numbers wise) and trained Continental Army with the French providing reinforcements and naval cover were able to confront the British forces in full on encounters!!! 🤔
Too damn many keyboard warriors who have never served think this is a video game like Call of Duty but it isn’t and it literally involves life or death! I have scars on my hand and arms from shrapnel wounds suffered during an IED attack that left the two soldiers in the lead vehicle double amputees!!! I was in the fifth vehicle back and still caught some shrapnel!!! 😑
Thousands will die so that millions will act.
I did not say to attack them. Only to surround the vote counting centers. Peacefully. So they know they are being watched like a hawk. Force them to do their vote counting or (fraud) out in the open.
DO NOT SHOW UP ARMED IN LARGE NUMBERS!!! That will be just what the FBI and police are looking for as an excuse TO USE EXCESSIVE FORCE!!!😑
Refuse to leave when they demand that you do so.
If a guard or guards try’s to make you leave, well there are more of us than them.
I recall the sceane where the father whose daughter was raped by a trans boy in the girls rest room, was removed by the police.
He was outnumbered about 6 to 1.
Actually, the guards were outnumbered about 61 but everyone else sat on their hands and watched,
Of course they did. Who wants to get shot? When it comes to the schools, we are going about all of this the wrong way. The best thing to do is to pull your kids out and home school them. Hit them in the only place they care about; their bottom line. We have to find a way to make them pay financially, but I fear that we have simply waited too long and let them get way too much power and control. And still we have pepole who can’t be bothered to vote because they’re either too ignorant or they’re just too lazy.
That is a more effective route to take, basically the tactics that these end oil radicals are using!!! Have 100 to 200 people just sit peacefully and have the authorities have come in and cart them off physically!!! That takes a lot of time and manpower!!! If a group shows up armed then you just made it exponentially easier for authorities to justify the use violent force and tactics to take people out!!! 🤔
Work smarter, not harder. You could do this all without firing a shot if that’s what you really want to accomplish. Nobody knows the US’s weaknesses better than its own citizens, so use that knowledge to your advantage.
For instance, if enough patriots moved to Texas and took over all the levers of government there via elections, simply vote to secede Texas. Shut down the borders, place a military on the Country of Texas, and then shut off the gas spigot.
Texas supplies 75 percent of the US’s energy needs. The moment you turn that off, the US would tear itself apart. They would probably last a month or two before the strong go to war against the weak. The US cannot afford to pay for energy from other countries because their debt is too high, not for very long before the other countries see US debt as too much risk.
Sure, they would put the US military up against the new Country of Texas, but all you’d have to do then is destroy the viaduct from the Colorado River to L.A. Millions of people in California without water would create a crisis that only the US military could handle. You’d just divert their attention while you wait out the clock. Also, the US military would be busy making sure other countries don’t take advantage of the situation, so they’d be spread pretty thin.
Once they destroy each other, simply walk back in and take it all back over.
The feds already know this is a potential problem for them, because anytime TX groups get together to speak of secession, practically the entire CIA shows up as a result.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colorado_River_Aqueduct#:~:text=The%20aqueduct%20impounds%20water%20from,drinking%20water%20for%20Southern%20California.
One simple problem and I am not trying to burst your bubble but the GOOD GUYS don’t currently control the levers of power!!! Even here in Texas where you and I live they are TRYING TO IMPEACH THE BEST ATTORNEY GENERAL IN THE COUNTRY!!! This is NOT THE DEMOCRATS DOING THIS BUT REPUBLICANS!!! It is the same in DC, the LEFT has control of most of the apparatus of Government not because they have overwhelming numbers but because of the UNIPARTY COLLABORATIONIST REPUBLICANS!!! Look at that damn sh** stain Senator of ours Cornyn, a damn weasel and collaborationist if their ever was one!!! You have to clean out the rats in the Republican Party first!!! 🤬
Millions of us out here in CA don’t like the idea of dying from thirst.
Just as George Washington’s army did to the red coats- guerrilla warfare.
that was more Francis Marion and Green.
That is the message. We must be organized to watch/protect the counting of the votes. They’re going to steal again. We have to catch them in the act and expose it.
You already caught them in 2020.
But that stuff was reported and the courts did nothing. Also, the poll watchers were forced to leave. Some were made to stand so far away there was no chance at seeing anything and when they complained they couldn’t see they were told “too bad”. Others had to stand on the other side of windows with paper covering them.
But, as the occupier implied, they have bigger gu_ns and I’m certain they intend to use them against us.
If that be THEIR intent, then we MUST get them before they mount up and advise “them” it is unwise as well as take their guns and such away from them.
If events take this turn, they will never make it from their homes to assemble nor if they are successful at assembling will they ever be able to “go home”.
We hope to never be “there” in those circumstances but it is “them” who ought to be afraid and not “we the people”.
Fear is in the air tonight… and rightly so according to what is being said–but courage and decisive moves early can create fear on their side….
Who is going to man the roadblocks and weapons on “biden’s” team anyway??
Same folks who kept the Lahaina residents from leaving town via their own roads…just a thought.
The point is “they” leave when the guns come out — but the guns didn’t come out in HI and “they” didn’t leave. And then if the scenario is as it seems to be, more died being blocked in — less would die if the roadblocks were opposed… roadblocks don’t remain for long if its only mercenary paid manpower.
Remember that the motivating story here (Athens TN) outlines what corrupted men do when finally opposed with force — including armed deputies which is why the militia brought guns and eventually dynamite.
the lesson — those who disobeyed survived.
Who is going to man the roadblocks and weapons on “biden’s” team anyway??
See the forest, not the trees.
The military has been purged since Hussain…past couple years pretty much completed the purge…that’s who we are up against, they won’t need road blocks .
…exactly so – the military has been purged!! The military you feared, that knew how to fight, would not have fought for Brandon. Now you have a military that will not fight and cannot cohere to fight and many of the fighters are on our side.
So… the answer of “who?” is not ONLY (1) no one but also (2) “NOT FIGHTERS TO BE FEARED” if IF they show up.
They WILL need roadblocks to control us and if “they” choose this path you have no choice but to fight if you want to be free — if you don’t want freedom or to fight, good enough but don’t pretend like I need to fear or “not fight too”.
Fight is coming… questions are how big and how long if you have how many on your side? The weapons are not theirs and will not long remain theirs for long. The weapons were and always will be ours.
The military will not fight FOR Brandon!
Won’t fight for Brandon?Wanna bet.
I’m not pretending anything, just have been watching and listening for years and I know that the military has been taken over by the anti-American regime….for example: trannies getting tax paid butchering and military coddling them. Watch the interview of Col Douglas Macgregor by Tucker Carlson. He will open your eyes to the reality of what has happened to our military.
Seeing the reality of the situation does not equal fear.
Problem is the local police/LEO have been militarized for the past 30 years. Their pensions mean more to them, than our love of the Constitution.
Bingo, Bingo, Bingo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😑
I would put one Ranger against 10 cops maybe 5 full time swat.
Doesn’t matter if the population won’t support it.
Pension whores.
So be it.
You didn’t click on the read more.
I note the same
Will history be repeated? Do we have that kind of internal fortitude and non-patisanship left?
Do we have a choice?

Contingency
One of the points of an allegory is grey cover as to the actual point of the conversation. People who have matching agendas have an innate understanding of the meaning.
…This was a historical recounting of how Old Mules attacked the injustice in their community…
Contingency is a good word..
Even when busted red-handed those stubborn sobs continued to try and cheat
They were waiting for their ‘reinforcements’ who were delayed too long in arriving.
The cheaters have nothing to lose at that point. Surprised it didn’t become a fight to the death. After all that’s been done in recent history, it will likely be such a fight to remove those that have been behind the worst of the corruption. The offenders have a choice, being on the receiving end of capital punishment for murder, treason and other crimes if they give up OR fight it out. By fighting it out they may lose and suffer the same fate as they would after the judicial process plays out, BUT they might win, hold power, and live to see another day.
What would you or anyone else do in that situation?
Give up peacefully?
HIGHLY doubt it!
Sorta like Detroit and Atlanta and Philadelphia and Phoenix and Madison and Milwaukee and ….
POWER corrupts.
Even Blue States may be close to having a critical mass of like-minded patriots.
Here are two fields to consider:

I think consumer strikes would be effective as well. Don’t buy anything but absolute necessities for a month. Shop local. No buying online from large retailers like Amazon and Walmart. Etc.
The American consumer is a powerful force and will have the government and large corporations on their financial knees begging for mercy. Cut their revenue stream to a trickle.
All done without any protests or violence.
Try to use cash as much as possible. It prevents the banks from collecting that 3% fee and it helps darken their surveillance angles.
Exactly. That’s what I’ve been saying! And don’t stop there! Pull all kids out of public schools, they’re not learning anything anyway. And STOP going to movies, concerts, and sporting events; they’re all in on the cultural rot! It’s time to talk in the only language they understand; MONEY.
Let’s go. I’m too old but I’ll support the Patriots and the Mules.
Gotta LOVE those ol’ mules!!!!
Any mules plowing that field need to be prepared to be stabled afterwards for a very long time.
Legal War Eagles would ensure it.
Trying my hand at the lingo
Pretty good for a first time.
Time to clip their wings then.

My tenth-grade history teacher taught us about this historical event. I loved my high school US History teacher. He knew how to teach in a way that stuck with me.
It’s a crime that history has ever been passed along in a manner that is boring or in enlightening. Took me years, too many, to be utterly fascinated.
Current events are so very similar to the events of the Roman Republic in its last 70-100 years. One could say that DJT is most like Julius Caesar, but there are two other figures from that era who also wanted to correct decades of ruling class corruption and restore the Republic to its original principles: Julius Ceasar’s uncle by marriage and his military mentor Gaius Marius; and Lucius Cornelius Sulla, who named himself essentially dictator for a limited term, which turned out to be horribly bloody, and who thwarted Julius’ political ambitions by forcing him into a role he couldn’t escape until Sulla was gone.
Trump needs us peaceful. Period. Exhortations to violence feeds the shills or whoever else may be here.
I don’t believe that The Founding Fathers would agree.
Did the Founding Fathers worry about the British shutting down The Treehouse? Internet sites are routinely shut down for advocating violence, are they not?
If you read the entire Dec of Independence, you’ll see that the British were treating Americans the same way the guvmint is doing today. Arresting people for nothing, raiding their homes and taking what they wanted etc. I had never read the whole thing until this year.
Patrick Henry watched a preacher whipped to death in the town square for preaching without a license.
Now they are thrown in jail to root for preaching on street corner
But protests, strikes, non-compliance are not violence. See Pedro’s links earlier.
CANDA TRUCKERS STRIKE Was non-violent and was a HUGE success!
https://anarchonomicon.substack.com/p/the-truckers-won-everything
Did they get their money back?
According to the article, Canadian Govt. Caved. All trucker demands met. Money? the cash grabs did not materialize.
There still are plenty of ways we can protest and cause issues for the govt. Consumer power to slow down a category of essential to the govt. businesses is one way. Transportation stoppage at strategic points across the country all at the same time. No going to work for a day or a few days. No buying anything for days at a time. Plenty of things can be done that will cause havoc for the govt. that are not violent.
We must secure our elections at all costs too. That is essential for 2024 and we have to get on the ground to help do this. If they insist on still allowing mail in ballots then we need to do just what the Dems do and go get the ballots. Sign up voters, volunteer to be election watchers, be present at polling places everywhere. So much we can do to make this election as secure and fair as possible.
Continuing forward, we can keep insisting that our election process is changed to paper ballots, hand counting, only one day voting, no ballots counted that come in after Election Day no matter what the reason, and start getting loud about not allowing mail in ballots anymore except for our military stationed over seas. Voter ID should be mandatory. Show the arrogant fraudsters we are paying attention and are willing to actively opppse their criminal acts to get our country back. Make them hear us and pay attention.
Without “force” to back these words you have nothing but a bit more hot air. No more pretending.
This gubmint will make tiennmin square look like a cake walk
The definition of “make them pay attention” is “militia” period, full stop.
THE VOTER ROLLS MUST BE CLEANED UP BEFORE THE VOTE!!!
This is our most pressing task, and there are established groups such as Jay Valentine and Catherine Englebrect, as well as others. Getting illegal registrations off the rolls is paramount for cleaning the election. Doing so severely limits the ability to make and deploy fake ballots.
Important: Action before the election is doable and the obverse, after the election, justice, fairness, and election integrity will be difficult to achieve.

“Bonjour, you cheese eating surrender monkeys!” — Groundskeeper Willie
Can old mares play?
I’ve seen some really hard working mares, not all were behind a plow but carried a heavy load with the best of them. So the answer to your question is – SURE THING.
Old mares, and old stallions can—especially if they have money.
Thank you for posting this. I’ve seen accounts of this event before in discussions of the Bill of Rights, but never has it been so directly relevant to modern times.
Yes, this incident has been discussed here before several times at least since the election was stolen.
It is an example for us all!
Today, none of us are veterans of a recent world war, and many of our police officers, deputies, I.R.S. agents, F.B.I. agents, National Guard soldiers, and the regular army will follow orders to shoot to kill whenever they are ordered to do so.
Are we prepared mentally – and militarily – to face them, when they arrive to jail us for violations of immoral and unconstitutional “laws” ?
Famously, Alexander Solzhenitsyn told in his great book , The GULAG Archipelago, that prisoners lamented their cowardice and their shivering acquiescence, when the 4:00 A.M. knock on the door was heard.
If only we had made the Secret Police fear for their lives, if only the Secret Police had needed to worry about whether they would return home alive to their families, if only we had met them with knives and skillets and any kind of weapon to fear for their lives, then perhaps the terror would not have lasted as long as it did!
I do not want to believe that Americans will be lamenting in the same way as those Russians less than a century ago.
And so, let me ask again: “Are we prepared….?“
IMO suburban Whites by and large will be crushed.
As I look around our affluent Greater Vancouver B.C. town most of its White residents are soft, fat, and indulged.
Cheers!
That may be the case in Canada.
In the US, I expect a different result.
???, what are you talking about? Have you looked around lately?
Canadians are unarmed.
Most suburban whites in the US are armed to the teeth and know how to use arms.
It would be a different outcome based on that alone.
If this be their ends and intent, let’s see what happens before the “next” false flag, psy-op, etc… its foolish to not fight if they intend to take you out and its foolish to wait much longer (pretend some more) that we have ‘good options’ by politics and voting ALONE.
Look harder. The “minorities” are just as soft and fat, especially those with rainbow hair.
I can only assuage a part of that concern with respects to servicemen.
All the services are hemorrhaging the most moral and competent of their organizations for a number of reasons.
Woke policy, nepotism driving away competence, and a general demoralization among other things are taking a toll on the day to day effectiveness of these organizations.
If it comes down to it, the remaining senior leadership of all these organizations will not be fully prepared. I just know that a not insignificant number of those parting will not readily forget their oaths or the experiences they have gained.
One of my former students is now in the Air Force, fairly high up in the Intelligence branch, and this former student told me c. 2 years ago that morale was low, a continuing problem.
I’m sticking the reminder in here again. Each of the traitors, whether a ruler or a toadie, has a family, a place they sleep, and other points of weakness. Would the camps have operated in nazi Germany if the families of anyone working there had been ostracized?
Any enforcer for the lawlessness that is taking place is vulnerable somewhere. It’s up to each of us to identify those we may come into contact with then choose to let them feel the pain of the choices their son, daughter, wife, husband or whoever has made. Let the children of these traitors have no playmates, let the spouses have no groceries, let the water not flow, let the electricity stop for them. Let there be no place that any of them can go where they feel welcome.
When it’s no longer fashionable and profitable to be a traitor then the enforcers will not do the dirty work.
EXACTLY. We are not thinking clearly and I expect we will soon enough. THEY are much more vulnerable than we know and my be clearer thinking in the morning.
Our enemy will need some “incentive” to fully collapse.
This does not need to be infantry tactics on our operations to succeed.
My son in LE said many years ago that if push came to shove, that the LE rank and file would not go against he people. lately I have doubted the truth of that. But what you describe is the truth — they have to have their thinking re adjusted.
This is not a military endeavor if it plays out through the militia — it is a militia war and we will get a Arby’s on the way out and cases of gatorade at Walmart on the way home… to the fight/arrest, lock-down-of-them, to removing the circuit breakers on the courthouses and treasury offices coast to coast… they have a fraction of the forces required to take down Missouri and TX let alone the entire country.
Every time I hear of old mules, among the best historical incidents to come to mind is the The Battle of Athens.
not until you’re prepared to give up everything
You cant tell the story of the Battle of Athens without mentioning that they dynamited the town hall / police station, and the cops inside SURRENDERED.
I love happy endings!
Different time and place in America for sure. 75% of the people in this country that would fight for their freedoms (and an honest election) are long ago dead. Most people don’t give a flip how many illegal votes were counted in 2020 or 2008 or 2012 or whenever. It’s irrelevant to them because there’s a very important text message that just hit their ceffone……
The greatest generation was truly just that. It’s been a fast downhill ever since.
Unfortunately, you are correct. And the evil ones know this.
I am finding this 1st episode (total of 8 episodes) apropos in this topic of old mules and the work contemplated. These scholars and practitioners contemplating the first chapter of the book of Exodus and the overcoming of tyranny that the people begin to act upon; after all part of getting things right is first getting things right between ourselves and God, then family, and then our world;
so wanted to share for when we find a moment, or two (total episode just over 2 hrs of to me riveting conversation) to consider the tasks at hand for our mulling pleasure:
Thank you.
I am 15 minutes into it and felt compelled come back to ensure you know your contribution was/is appreciated.
Appreciate that; thanks.
Fascinating discussion. I have a whole new appreciation for the Book of Exodus. Thanks Bessie. I want to hear more of this series.
And now you know why the govt REALLY wants to ban AR15’s. Because they government doesn’t want you to have the same firepower as them. The government wants to have SUPERIOR FIREPOWER OVER YOU.
Why? So when push comes to shove, they can shove you into the cop car, then shove you into jail, and later shove you onto the cattle car.
Amen! See my comment above!
Preparation for the worst possible totalitarian nightmare: the Russians in 1917, the Germans in 1932, the Chinese in 1948, and many other examples show how ruthless yet well-organized Minorities seized control of their respective countries.
The majority – disorganized, not ruthless, unwilling or unable to use violence – was dominated, subjugated, enslaved.
Been aware of what might happen since I watched, on live TV, BATF, FBI, and US Army’s DELTA, shoot, gas, and incinerate innocent children, women, and men in Texas town named Waco. Everybody should watch this and see what the government really thinks of them, and how govt murders Americans with complete impunity.
my summary (and I saw Dick DeGuerin’s video within week of this happening): the government was laying siege to a religious group with MILITARY weapons for no reason. They fabricated drugs and child abuse, the government assassinated 4 ATF agents and blamed on the Davidians. Janet Reno authorized murder of CHILDREN and later said she was ok with that. This was an exercise, a demonstration to the US populace, the outcome was intended from the beginning.
I wonder what the men who took part in this think now?
do you have a link to this video?
Violence under control is called “FORCE”. We will be FORCEFUL in coming days.
Think BEFORE you pick up a rifle but by all means pick up the guns when needed.
COURAGE. STEADY. NO EGO’s.
The goal is Truth and freedom thereby.
Stark reality.
Very well stated. I feel this already. Who I was, who I thought I would be are gone forever. Painful process, but on the other side of it, not so bad.
I try not to ask if we have the guts to do the same as mentioned. Of course we do. The real question for me is who is going to throw the first stone.
Mules are interesting beings. They may seem docile and quiet, slow, repetitive. Beware of the quietness. Mules are tough and resilient. George Washington loved mules and started the breed in America. Washington, mules. In the 60s there were few mules, but they have bounced back…tough/resilient. Mules are:
When I read the above description of this magnificent animal in the context of the thread, I see how we patriots resemble their characteristics. The bullet point are meaningful. Listen to the quietness, watch the body language, since the movement of the air. Know who you are. Practice common sense and carefulness. Be methodical, and persistent.
when the trail is uncertain, stay on the horse.
As creepy would say …. “Well son of a B….!”
Brings to mind..where there’s a will..there’s away..

I tried to join True the Vote. I live in Clark County Nevada – one of the vote harvesting centers of the cheat. Unfortunately, the TTV website referred me to boring State Regulations -no names, no contact person, nothing tangible. (At least they didn’t refer me to the RinoNC.) How does that help me help secure the vote? I need a quiet mule evaluator to point me in the right direction.

I’m borrowing this from Dissident Soaps
Saw a 70+ year old guy with a slightly stooped back, wearing jeans, tucked in white t-shirt and pristine work boots in the self-checkout at the grocery store yesterday. he was carrying a Glock 17 and 4 spare magazines, which while legal is exceptionally rare to see around here (due to low crime).
Asked him “what’s with all the spare mags, old timer?” And he replied “they’re talking about making people wear masks again. I don’t got that much time left on this earth and I’m not spending it wearing their mask or sitting in jail, so that’s that.”
Rise up Boomers.
This is why the 2nd amendment is essential for a free country.
In Luke chapter 23, as Jesus is being forced to walk to His crucifixtion, He saw all the women weeping and crying out. Then He said, “ If men do these things when the tree is green, what will happen when it is dry?”
We are there.
In the next Presidential Election, if there aren’t enough independent and objective Poll watchers/workers to monitor the election, the Dems will steal it again,
like they stole it in 2020.
Sign up at your local board of elections to work/volunteer on Election Day.
Some Poll workers, if not all, get paid for their service.
It’s not who gets the MOST votes so much as who COUNTS the votes.
Good enough but is INSUFFICIENT actions to take criminals and Tyrants out of power under present conditions.
Plan accordingly.
Does anyone know if Trump has a legal defense fund separate from his campaign fund?
I’m not keen on having my money get registered by the Feds as a campaign contribution. One would think that contributing to a defense fund would not be subject to campaign contribution regulations
Yes, Don, Jr. sells merchandise.
And I am sure there are other sources but you do have to research.

My husband and I often talk about history, while enjoying an adult beverage on our patio, surrounded by the woods overlooking a lake.
He loves true historical events.
He is also a Viet Nam Era Vet.
This is very interesting Sundance.
Stay Frosty.
twenty years of veterans of the wars sitting here watching these bastards.
So … Where are all those patriot warehouse flag and general officers that got purged by Oblamo? Carter Hamm, etc?
I can’t believe they would just melt into the woodwork, never to arise again.
Chris Miller, Adm. Mike Rogers,, Gen. Boykin, et al?
Good question
The only problem you have is that you don’t have the HUGE numbers of former highly trained military members, like myself, available for a mass show of force!!! Unfortunately the government has us outgunned and also possess the huge advantage in technology (think drones and smart weapons) that are accessed by all these law enforcement agencies, forget including the military (Although National Guard Units are controlled by State Governments)!!! You have to hope that the peaceful legal way can be utilized much like what happened with the 2016 Election!!! 🤔
All those force multipliers are not as formidable as one might think at first glance.
Just think of the required logistics to make those things effective.
Those logistics are only as good as the weakest link. Single points of failure would be problematic for them to say the least.
There are only 800,000 law enforcement in USA. Military 1.3 million, plus about 800,000 reserves. The military will be at war with Russia, or China. one percent of the country is 33 MILLION. Why do you think there is so much censoring, and talk of gun control. The corrupt officials are very worried. Going to be tough pulling off another fraudulent election with Trump leading Biden by 4 points in latest McLaughlin poll. Swing states 10% lead. Their only option is assasination of Trump.
1% is 3.3 million. 10% is 33 million. And I get your point.
tech is dependent on fragile components and good comm.
Not to mention the supply chain is fraught with entrances and exits.
And it has been my experience that tech messes up on a regular basis.
This should be taught in schools under Civics.
When the “peace means of redress” are exhausted…. heads on pikes….
WWII vets showed us how to fight political corruption. They set the standard in the 40’s. The Battle of Athens, is today’s Battle for our country.
Seems we might be heading down the same road in some areas of the U.S. Question is do we have any GIs to man the opposition to the corrupt govt. officials stealing our votes?
Form militias
We are not yet at the movement phase yet.
There are not enough jackboots of this disposition yet at the main street level. For those of us who understand truly being free from taxes, seizures and surveillance, it’s hot.
However, not enough of the sheep are ready.
Respectfully.
De Opresso Libre!
Notice one thing about this.
Tip O’Neil used to say “All politics is Local.”
This took place at the Local Level, where the ballots are counted.
Even today, in the presidential elections, the ballots are counted at the county courthouse.
The people stealing the elections are people that live in Your County, in your neighborhood.
You know who they are, where they live, what they look like.
They can be found and they can be held accountable.
If that is with tar and feathers, or with a stake, kindling, pitch, and a torch.
They can be held accountable by their neighbors, with rough justice if need be.
The Sheriffs office may have 2-300 people. The police may have another 2-300.
How many are we?
In the Revolution the estimate is only 2-3% of the people of the states were in rebellion.
2-3% of my county is about 20-30,000.
What is the cyclic rate of an HK9, and with its 30 round magazine, how soon is it empty?
What is the cyclic rate of 200 Winchester 94 .30-30s, all going off at the same time?
Most refreshing.
Sundance told the story accurately and eloquently.
Spread it “over the hills and everywhere”.
Sounds like what happened to the Chicago mafia in Hot Springs Arkansas after WWII. Returning soldiers ran the criminals out of their safehaven town and the horsetrack of the south Oaklawn. That was what I was told at least by all my uncles, it got messy!
Evil never wants to give up power! See what it took! I don’t think anyone today has the guts to remove the corrupters! Look at how much work the Biden administration is fighting to keep power! These people have to leave!
the movie version is on youtube but someone probably linked it already
Daunting task. So much effort was required to secure a single, local election. Now that the root of the corruption is the federal government (working with state actors), it’s going to require an incredible effort to effectuate a similar result. Then again, there are more than just “60 GIs” now, too.
Trump knows they’re going to try to steal it again. He’s also smart enough not to tip his hand. Man, who knew revolutions would be so complicated. Sri Lanka made it look easy, haha.
Trump–“we will not comply”

It was easy for them – the country is so small that everyone could get to the capitol. In our country we have to fly there, then get a car, etc. etc.
There was a fictionalized movie back in 1992 called, An American Story, that was inspired by the Athens TN event.
I wish they would do a major motion picture for public consumption based on the actual historical event.

Flashback: CBS Movie ‘An American Story’ Highlighted Need for Second Amendment
https://www.breitbart.com/entertainment/2013/02/16/flashback-hollywood-pro-second-amendment/
Most of us here are familiar with the “Battle of Athens.” I covered this some years ago on my site too. The problem is ever that to obtain such a result, so many people must be motivated, in righteously indignant fashion, that they no longer care for the consequences. This means that they must be either be reduced to a state of having little left to lose, or a people of great virtue and intestinal fortitude. I honestly don’t think we’re there yet, on either side of that ledger.
It’s like the Wyatt Earp story about him holding off a lynch mob. He purportedly tells the mob, “Yes, you can get me in a rush, but who wants to go first?” (Implied: and second, and so on.) It’s not surprising that few will volunteer to be at the top of that roster.
Another big difference between then and now is communications. The thug-controlled government has first rate comms funded by you, with all the best radio systems your tax dollars can provide. Your best bet is cellular, and they can turn that off easily. (And have done so in several situations.)
Point is, in this day and age, you’d have to operate right on the edge of the law(and that’s assuming an adversary that made at least a show of respecting law – unlike current,) up until the moment you went hot, and you’d better move faster than they did at Athens.
I’m not saying what can’t be done, but what I mean here to express is that any sort of duplication of effort would require a very committed and unflinching resolve to purpose once begun.
The other problem is proof. At Athens, they were able to count the actual ballots and see the true results. Given the way it seems ballots are manufactured and injected into the system in such a way that they’re counted as good ballots, you’ve got a real problem.
Therefore, the interception doesn’t need to happen at the jail or courthouse, but at the point of manufacture and delivery. All those NGOs Catherine and Greg talk about providing the ballots to be injected… THAT is something worth pondering for a time. Geo-fencing won’t work next time. Even if they still use the cameras on their phones for proof when they demand payment, they can turn off their cellular service(location services off, airplane mode active,) take their pictures, and do their deed, wearing their COVID masks and latex gloves.
Lots to consider before gathering the mules.
Cantrell was small time corrupt compared to the Bidens.
“[If] the King can model the constitution at will… his government is a pure despotism.
“The question then arising is, whether a pure despotism in a single head, or one which is divided among a king, nobles, priesthood, and numerous magistracy, is the least bad. I should be puzzled to decide.”
–Thomas Jefferson to James Madison, 1788
It is divided but there is always a king or king maker.
Same attitude, smaller scale.
The Mules don’t need to be gathered, we are watching, waiting for the time we will be needed and when that time comes we will go to work.
They don’t want anything to do with us, because they see us as a threat, that we might convert them.
“The disease of liberty is catching.”
–Thomas Jefferson to Lafayette, 1820
You are right. The oath that was give does not have an expiration date. The Mule understands what is on the line.
Waiting both for the time and the right opportunity. A/k/a keeping our powder dry.
Their reaction to January 6th revealed the extent to which they fear us. They fear us because we have a leader. If Trump had but given the command, those people would have responded. The Swamp’s reaction showed that they know just how close they came to being overthrown.
“The only contest between divided friends, should be who will dare farthest into the ranks of the common enemy.”

Harrison Floyd Joins the War Room after his Release from Fulton County Prison
https://rumble.com/v3dc6nu-harrison-floyd-joins-the-war-room-after-his-release-from-fulton-county-pris.html
I hope Mr. Floyd is looking over his shoulder.
They re criminals like Nazis. Recall what THEY did to the Tea Party. The communistic know how to blunt a movement. They must deny the opposition any political voice. Ten years ago they slimed opposition as racist. Now they have declared war on any opposition and call them terrorists, or military enemies. It is hard to imagine this will not go kinetic, which they try very hard to inspire, or that it does not lead to uncontrolled violence. They think they will be able to control it, but that is because they went to ivy-league fake schools and did not learn their history.
With Trump’s remarks yesterday of “We will not comply”, he is signaling that he is on board to lead the rebellion. I only fear that tucker is correct, that the next game changer is not a “new covid” but a hot war with Russia and the initiation of the War Powers Act. God save America.
Willy, President Trump was referring specifically to the ridiculous Covid 2.0 redux attempt by Biden.
——President Trump has been very clear he needs us to be peaceful. Period. ——-
I think the war is more likely to be in defense of Saudi Arabia against Iran. With Iran backed by Russia. One problem will be that China will probably be moving on Taiwan at about the same time, and Russia will not be done yet either.
Of course, with Biden in office, supposedly, decision might be made to fight nowhere. To suspend the election and the constitution in the United States because of the emergency. I do suspect that some military units would be sent overseas just to make sure they are not in the United States as the constitutional suspension is dispute here.. I think you can count on the military having placed suspected Patriots in the units that are in Somalia or South Korea, or maybe Antarctica.
The consensus now is much stronger in the country then it was at that time. The leftist, for their own good, had better not try to steal the election next year.
“If the appeal to arms is made, it will depend entirely on the disposition of the army whether it issue in liberty or despotism.”
–Thomas Jefferson to Edward Rutledge, 1788
That was written at a time when the United States had no standing army except literally a few hundred men in coastal defense units, in places like fort McHenry at Baltimore. That means to me that Jefferson is referring to the militia, possibly he was thinking specifically of the veterans of the Revolutionary War, who mostly would have been still of military age.
I would pretty much concur with your assessment. The fact that the courts STOOD MUTE after 2020 tells me you’re never going to get any action.
One thing that might be considered right now, no violence necessary, would be to remove every penny from any of stock market funds. The parasites use your retirement funds to implement their tyranny. Deny them the oxygen.
Next step, ten million or more stop paying their mortgages. This is also a huge feeder for their financial power. Declare jubilee and strip them of their vampiric life’s blood…debt. Advance the idea and candidates who advocate for ending debt. All debt. Debt amnesty for Americans.
Certainly the progressive left would be there with you.
Think also of where the water filtration and power supply for communities near yours come from. Make sure also that the people who can make those things run are not kidnapped suddenly, the same should be applied to places where petroleum is obtained, refined, or stored. That knowledge too can be obtained and spread without violence or any conspiratorial agreements.
What is go fencing?
I think he’s talking about illegal ballots put into ballot drop boxes and those paid to do so proving they did the deeds using their cell phones to Steal the election. Look up what is an example of geofencing.
Geo-fencing is a form of analysis used in GIS. (Geographic Information Systems.) You take a GIS map, where the map is really a database of lines, points, and intersections of lines. This is how all the modern electronic maps you use are drawn. They’re based on a standardized coordinate system, and so what you do is buy the cell tower data from the TelCos, and you place the data on the map. You place simple info, like a timestamp, and an unique ID. You draw a virtual fence around a specific location or locations, and then you see which phones’ unique IDs fall within the fence. This tells you the phone was at the location defined by the virtual fence. So you create a number of fences, in this case around drop boxes, and you see how many of those unique IDs cross into more than one of the fenced areas. This was TTV’s methodology. So if a given unique ID showed up in AT LEAST TEN fenced locations, they counted them. There would be many more if they had reduced that number to FIVE fenced locations.
This is the same technology and analysis that the FBI claims they COULD NOT apply to the DC J5 pipe bomber because the data from one of the TelCo’s was allegedly corrupt. I’d love to know which TelCo that had been(and I’d bet my left arm I can guess.)
And, lookup How do I protect myself from geofencing.
if going somewhere that you don’t want to be tracked, get yourself a Faraday cage bag for your phone, turn your phone off, put it in the bag and go.
Alternatively, leave your phone at home.
Here is one vendor:
https://slnt.com/collections/faraday-phone-sleeves
Never bought from them & they seem a bit pricey. Wrapping phone in 2 layers of aluminum foil will work in a pinch.
They designed phones so you can’t pull the battery anymore and they still record your location when the phone is turned off. When you turn your phone back on, the GPS tracking data is sent to the central repository where your data is stored forever.
Phones are designed to be spying devices. They record your audio and randomly take snapshots back without your knowledge.
Geo-fencing is a technique for analyzing data. What you do is take cellphone location data, and you effectively put a virtual “fence” around a location, say in this case, a drop box. Then you see which cellphones fall inside that fence in a given period. Then you do this with a bunch of dropboxes in a city, say Atlanta. Now you correlate that and find which cellphone unique device IDs show up inside a number of these virtual fences(meaning: at the drop boxes) and now you know who the ballot mules are by phone ID. This is the basic methodology Catherine and Greg at TrueTheVote used to map out the ballot mules’ activities.
The data set is generally obtained from the cellular companies, who will sell it to you.
Well, now that Catherine and Greg have exposed their methodology, the ballot mules will naturally seek to conceal their location, meaning that during the ballot operations, they’ll likely put their phones in airplane mode, because they still need their camera functionality to take pictures of the ballots they’re dropping as proof for subsequent payment.
Great explanation, Mark. Just to add what he has said is that there is “no personal information” that is taken. A court case in early ’70’s ruled that this was what we now called metadata – time, date, and duration of a phone call. So the 4th Amendment was never violated. Of course, cell phones didn’t exist back then but the concept is still the same. Technically, a great intel analyst can still piece together a pattern of life out of that data eventually.
Geo-fencing is a technique using the recorded presents of cell phones in certain transmission areas to track down approximately where people were at a given time.
You make valid points. We should all stop complying with all censorship disguised as ‘moderation’. Censors are the baddies. ALWAYS.
” they can turn off their cellular service(location services off,”
Can they?
Are you certain a particular ping from a tower won’t activate it?
Won’t start your phone monitoring the microphone and camera?
Better you use a “dumb” camera for such things.
Don’t forget facial recognition…
COVID masks handle facial recognition. Also, since most of those cameras aren’t being monitored, and not all drop boxes are covered by cameras anyway, that’s not a threat to the ballot traffickers.
As far as the cellular piece, if they put their phones in airplane mode, they’re no longer transmitting. Period. That’s allegedly the whole point of airplane mode. As far as location services, done by itself, it may or may not be effective, but airplane mode certainly will be.
As far as the cellular piece, if they put their phones in airplane mode, they’re no longer transmitting. Period. That’s allegedly the whole point of airplane mode. As far as location services, done by itself, it may or may not be effective, but airplane mode certainly will be.
Please read my remarks again for clarity.
Mycroft,
I don’t mean to suggest that there’s no technology by which they could be remotely activated. I mean only to say that under this scenario, they can turn it off. Now, if somebody happens to be particularly targeting ballot mules whose devices were known in advance, that might be possible. My point to you is that the people who are carrying out these operations tend to be aligned with those who *might* have the ability to remotely activate devices. The question is: Why would they?
Putting the phone in airplane mode does the same thing as turning the phone off. The phone is still recording your location data, possibly recording audio as well. When you turn off airplane mode or turn the phone on, the data is sent out. If you carry a “smart phone”, you are under 24/7 surveillance, unless you put the phone in a Faraday Cage, so no RF can get in or out of the phone.
Short version: the trackers are probably never as “off” as we think they are. And some of our control is probably illusory.
You get it! Off doesn’t necessarily mean off. I have spent a lot of time looking into this.
Unless you can remove the battery you really have no idea what is running in the background and even battery out might not succeed if there is an internal backup.
Exactly! Your phone is “always” on chirping to a tower receiving info even though you think it is “off”. Smart phones were really made for this and other reasons. This is why people in spycraft use dumb phones or burners to use ONCE and toss.
Don’t ignore other tech items, such as EZ Pass, toll decals, SiriusXM receivers, Pacemakers, Hearing Aides, and so on. Many everyday items leave a trail in the WOT.
Simply put it in your Faraday bag.
I can hear it now.
Trumpish person has his fone in a Faraday bag!!
WHY would he do that??????????
Why would he want to hide??
Must be an insurrectionist! Throw him in the DC jail!!!!
And as long as we discuss it to ad nauseum here in the forums, nothing will be done.
I disagree. Discussing it here and other venues is how we come to a common understanding and baseline agreement upon which any actions must be predicated.
So, extensive training of different mule plowing methods prior to spring will never get the field plowed?
I have a little phantasy that keeps coming up. older boomers like me, 76, will say what’s to lose for me?! I am taking back my country for my grandchildren. call it the old boomer army. it might be (perhaps short-lived) fun.
Given what the younger generation has come to, it may be the older boomers that have to do the real work. We are the ones who know about history and, in my humble opinion, are way more intelligent and savvy. It would be more than fun – we would know we have saved our country even if we have to give our lives for it.
Ditto, many times over, as I have many friends of the same age and mindset. “For the grands!”
The mules will do what is required when the time comes. This tyranny will not last.
JeanneDark, I don’t blame you for being heartsick. The first problem with 2000 Mules is what you have said: Too few people have paid it any attention. I am constantly shocked by how many people haven’t seen it, never mind taken it to heart, seeking to act upon it politically. The second problem with 2000 Mules is that too many people don’t understand anything about the technology being exploited by TrueTheVote to reveal the ballot mules, and a similar number doesn’t understand the technology they carry around each day all day. We’ve really become an intellectually stunted society, relying on others to do all our thinking for us. Small wonder they abuse us. The third problem with 2000 mules is what you’ve said: Even with evidence, the crimes were ignored. Again, this is because WE didn’t show up in sufficient numbers to make a “fuss.”
We’re going to lose our country and our liberties to this laziness, if we haven’t already.
Well said
I paid to see it, was locked out of logging in, complained and was ignored. How many others had that experience. Made me suspicious of anything by Dsouza since.
Men out of war was the “will” that put that together. Notice how military men are persecuted in our country once out, these people know that once the fear of death or jail is overcome then America will be great again.
I said this before it’s a warrior mentality.
What we have now is a bunch of bullies who strut around acting as if they are tough or dangerous but can only attack the weaker or helpless.
Warriors protect and provide. It takes more than violence it takes a will to overcome evil. Most in our nation are evil and embrace it as a comfort. ( as I write that I see how sick this nation has become) We find comfort in evil, it’s familiar. That’s disgusting. It is no coincidence either, it’s purposefully done.
I can write on and on but it always comes back to one issue, God. Now, you can package that thought anyway you want but God is his attributes. Your not gonna have some enormous being stomping around fixing this. It’s his spirit and attributes in us that solve problems. We can’t solve problems therefore he is absent from our thoughts.
God has different thoughts and understanding than us. It starts with the individual then the corporate, the masses. As it is now, our culture has been so shattered that it has no value anymore. That too was no coincidence. Separate groups, coexist, protected classes.
Used to be “what’s good for the country” was in place, sacred or just a “given” but now it’s all gone. Now, it’s criminals that run everything or if your not criminals then you get attacked.
One man can rally an army, one man cannot fix this. Our army is standing and ready we just need a worthy leader, and direction.
Agree.
It is refreshing to see another who understands the warrior mentality and of everything you said the last paragraph is the most poignant.
No one man can fix or change what has happened over the last decades, not Trump, not a judge nor a statesman only We the People can fix this.
Being a veteran, I can say with certainty that the moment the uniform comes off, veterans lose all value for Democrats, but also a number of swampster Republicans. In DC generally, we’re viewed with suspicion and a bit of trepidation because they know of what we are capable.
Criminals are running the country, as you note. If one man can rally the country, it would be PDJT.
We need to also be aware that the corrupt locals in Athens could not summon a flyover drop or some steel boxes. Cutting them off from their tools at hand would have to be only a complete surprise. This would be risky, but there is never a reward for not taking necessary risks. Leg work would have to precede any action and all actions would have to include infiltrating services for the dad gum mules. Even then, this is not a couple of mule teams.
You may be right, you may be wrong, FAFO!!!
You gotta feed the mules REAL FOOD, not the pretend stuff. The food that steadies their soul and clears their eyes. The food my Lieutenant Governor was serving. Soon, we’ll have mules, if we ever need to gather them.
