All General Lee apparently needed was some hot outfits made up of Antifa and he could have taken DC with ease.

According to FOX News, the press have been evacuated from the White House.


Who wants them inside, holding the door open?

Can you hear the people sing?
It is the song of angry men.
It is the music of the people, who will not be slaves again.

Right there is a picture of someone pouring a liquid, probably gas or lighter fluid right on the statue base. That person should be shot as soon as they attempt to light it. That is the commission of a felony, and lethal force can be used to stop an arsonist.

every thing happens for a reason or purpose. As Lenin is said to have said,”Out of chaos, order”. A number of the Anarchists leaders have said”I, We are not here to protest, I, er are here to tear down.” When it happens, you are not going to like it. The peasants are who it will directed at. Not the anarchists, The anarchists will be helping control the serfs.It would be helpful to study history. Beginning with the Bolshevik Revolution.

The solution is not what most want but it is inevitable at this point. It will accelerate after Trump is re-elected. Then the gloves come off.

THis is at the Federal Park that Trump walked to that church.

THis is Federal land and if the demonrat mayor refuses to do anything more than this, then Federal power can be implemented to call in National Guard. They have already defaced the Church with BHAZ - Black House Autonomous Zone.

Another picture shows a phone number on one of someone wearing rubber gloves: 202-888-1731. It's the number for the National Lawyers Guild.

NLG

They're well prepared.

No shucking.

No jiving.

No chimping.

Half of these gutter rats are just attracted to the spectacle.

Actually as Commander-in-Chief, the President can call on The U.S. Army Military District of Washington for defensive measures. For example setting a cordon sanitaire around The Dept of Tresury, Lafayette Park. The Executive Building and the White House at the center. All actions within the charter of the USAMDW.

JFHQ-NCR/USAMDW
The U.S. Army Military District of Washington traces the origin of its current incarnation to 1921, but its purpose existed in the Union Army headquarters that organized defenses of the nation’s capital during the Civil War.

In World War II, MDW was a jointly staffed command with new responsibilities for the air, ground and naval defense of the capital and the newly built Pentagon.

MDW became the home of the Army’s official ceremonial units, the 3rd U.S. Infantry Regiment (The Old Guard) and the U.S. Army Band “Pershing’s Own.” These, Army cemetery operations, air support, court martial and other UCMJ responsibilities, signal activities, installation management and a variety of contingency missions and other administrative functions made MDW one of the most useful little Major Commands in the Army.

Now a Direct Reporting Unit, the command showed its mettle when terrorists struck in September 2001. It was the key defense support in the rescue and recovery operations at the Pentagon, a credential that brought streamlining of functions — and further responsibilities.

When U.S. Northern Command formed to provide homeland defense and defense support to civil authorities, MDW was charged with standing up Joint Force Headquarters National Capital Region as its subcommand. The command’s Air Operations Group extends the reach of Army leadership within the region through the 12th Aviation Battalion and internationally with the jets of the Army Priority Air Transport. The MDW commander is also the senior mission commander for four Army and one joint Army/Marine multi-installation garrisons.

No longer immersed in the direct management of the installations, MDW has oversight of the garrison-level support provided to the many joint and Army missions based along with MDW as tenants of the installations.

The 12th Aviation Battalion, located at Davison Army Airfield, Fort Belvoir, Va., provides a fleet of helicopters for civilian and senior military leaders for transport and provides operational airlift for such tactical units as the Military District of Washington’s 3rd U.S. Infantry Regiment (The Old Guard) and the 12th’s own technical ...

It may be ill advised but I don’t think anybody in authority in this country has the courage to take strong armed measures against these rioters.

“They want to rush the White House. They’re planning to attack it and take it over. Mark my words.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I think that’s the anarchists ultimate goal...Bullet box.


I think they think that if they can get someone shot rushing the WH, it will create a ‘Kent State’ moment. Get a picture of a girl crying over a fallen comrade. They forget how the next election turned out.

That is EXACTLY what they want: sound bites and screen shots.

Obama Generals are planning a coup—they will order the men to join with the Posteriors to seize the White House and arrest the fake President and put Hillary in Charge. When you see the Tanks rolling in—Watch out! Trump better have an escape plan. The rebels will seize Andrews AF Base as well.Justice Roberts is all ready to give Hill the Oath of Office. The New York times has the front Page set up. Trump in handcuffs pulled to jail in the House of Congress. There will be dancing in the streets. Donald Jr. Ivanka will be arrested. If they fail—CW II starts tomorrow.
Have food and water stocked up—and ammunition for a three day hunt.

It appears that only my President has the courage to do that, as he commanded when he wanted to walk across the street to the old church. ... Those pepper balls hurt when they hit you and they blind you for a while with choking, tears and breathing difficulty.

If the protestors were trying to barricade the Anacostia area of DC, that actually wouldn’t be a bad idea!

They ambushed and murdered LaVoy Finicum for less.

Why the desire to shut these things down? For years we’ve complained that education has been captured by the Left, and that our kids are not taught about the failings of Leftist ideology. And here, with CHOP and now possibly DC, we have an opportunity for a “teachable moment.”

Let them create their little utopian communes! What is the cost? It’s beared only by the deep-blue cities who vote for this crap to begin with. Why save them from that?

CHOP and the like are great educational tools for people to see how Leftist ideology works out *in practice*.

Rush Limbaugh once recommended we allow Cuba to remain Communist, as type of museum to remind us of its failings.

So allow CHOP and any other commune to play themselves out; enclose them in an enormous plastic dome to serve as petri dishes for a live social-science experiment.
