    I've just heard from 4 different sources that President Trump has signed the Insurrection Act within the last few hours. Not sure if I believe it yet, just passing along what I heard. I didn't believe it the first time but it is starting to make me wonder.

    I've also heard arrests are being made, Flynn will be the VP, the Military is moving and we will be getting notifications through the Emergency Broadcast System and should not update our phones because Big Tech might try to stop us from getting messages. Should make sure you have a couple weeks food and water.

    Hard to know what believe these days but if this is true the information should be getting out soon.

    Trump should declassify all of the documents relating to Obama’s illegal acts as well as Hillary’s and Biden’s. That is all he needs to do. He is the most admired man in America and 95 % of Republicans support him. Biden disinvited him from the inauguration so he is free to leave Washington early and then begin rallies about January 21 about how the American people were robbed.

    Does that mean he could be arrested and hung as a traitor like John Brown?

    Neither the senate and/or the house will stand for this... nor have I heard that the joint chiefs are ok with this. Provided this does happen then all the military might will come down on this cop killers head. He will be arrested and tried ASAP. Hopefully they could hang him right away.

    If the hope is that Tr:mp will somehow remain in office, it is not going to happen.

    Time to focus on 2022.

    peace to you

    I've heard no credible reports to suggest this is going to happen.

    I'll believe it when I see it. Pompeo speaking today at VOA, starts at 9:15. No real hints that I see but something to consider:

    I had a kink in my neck for three weeks because of his stupid pillow. I don’t see him as an authority on anything beyond sleep gear.

    Bid:n will be sworn in on the 20th. This is more false hope that won’t happen. People must stop the violence. We cannot plunge ourselves into conflict.

    peace to you

    We must not lose our most basic of rights, free speech.

    Then who will speak when they come for you?

    Yes, this sounds non-credible, though some, including communists, might push it to get people fighting in the streets. Trump is not in a position to make any such move and has already said he would make a peaceful transition. Big Tech shutting him down to such an extent only fuels these ideas.

    Exactly. By shutting down what they call "misinformation" They have actually given way to actual dangerous misinformation.
