word is Biden is going to direct the FBI to target the Ultra Maga terrorists. I am sure that's true because we've already seen it-the beginnings at least. He has certainly made this point of view known several times over.
The time that stands out most to me is the address with the dark red backdrop and 2 marines on either side-it was deliberately ominous.
He was sending a message. i take it this was meant to strike fear into us and maybe we would give up our support of Trump.
Remember this? Who could forget. It was billed as the Unity Speech. The blood red lighting and hint of a militaristic weaponized regime-the language regarding us 'ultra maga' terrorists was not unifying. It was bizarre and meant to be scary/threatening.
DISGRACEFUL
something you would see in a 3rd world country
i take it he also meant it. Every word. i didn't think i'd live to see the day the FBI would target our own citizens because they supported a candidate for President who happened to be running against the current President.
Anotherwords, he would go after the supporters of his own opponent as well as his opponent. This in the United States?!
It's hard for me to wrap my head around that. i always expected that kind of thing from the USSR or Cuba,but not from the country people wanted to come to for freedom from these tyrants.
Let me tell you a little bit about my background before i begin to tell you who you would be targeting here.
I grew up in a household of Democrats. My parents were Kennedy Democrats. i can recall, when he ran, how the bias against Catholics surfaced.
People were a little reluctant to vote for the young Senator wondering if he would be able to govern or if he'd take orders from the Pope. It was silly but he had to resassure them that wouldn't happen.
i remember very well the terrible and tragic day he was shot. We stopped in class to say a prayer. It was a Catholic school.
It wasn't long after he was shot that the civil rights leader Martin Luther King was shot. Another terrible and tragic day for the country. i was going to vote for John's brother Robert, then he was shot.
It was devastating. What a terrible time in our history. Malcom X would be the next historial figure to be assassinated.
After all the good times we had seen too. The economy was in good shape. The middle class was growing. My father a WWII vet and survivor of the Great Depression was running his own business. We weren't rich but we didn't want for anything either.
The folks went to all the Democrat picnics-fundraisers. i believed that the Democrats were for the common people and the Republicans were for the rich and elites. Abortion was illegal and nobody would ever have given same sex marriage the time of day.
They weren't issues. Somewhere along the line i became not only a Democrat but a flaming liberal (leftie)Democrat. i didn't understand politics.
i certainly didn't have any indepth knowledge of the issues of the day.The main issue was Vietnam. All i knew was i opposed it as a total pacifist. i met up with a friend out of state and we passed around anti war liteature on the local [college]campuses.
i met the friend through an ad in Rolling Stone magazine. They had the personals in the back. i have no idea if they still do that but they did when i was young and dumb.
We weren't revolutionaries by a long shot. We didn't participate in any protests. We never got involved in any riots but we definitely opposed the war. Outside of the one issue of Vietnam i was more interested in the music of the day than the politics.
Rolling Stone was my reading material. All you need to know.* Ironically i would date 2 different men who came back from Vietnam. One was a dude from the Army.
It lasted through one trip to the zoo. Nice person and pleasent trip to the zoo. All i'm going to say. The other was a Marine who had a purple heart. My first love but I digress.
Back to topic.
You know what a crazy time that was but the war eventually ended. Abortion became the issue of the day. i was almost convinced that we had a right to choose and abortion should be legal. The culture was leaning pro abortion.
The louder pro abortion activists were controlling the narrative. As time went on though i became pro life. It seemed like the pro abortion groups weren't really about choice. They were advocates for abortion period. They seemed callous and cold when it came to killing babies.
I also realized the Democrat party lived and breathed the abortion issue. Nothing else mattered as much to them as keeping the practice legal. It was the litmus test for being a Democrat.What my parents didn't see coming was the Democrat party getting radical.
For them it would always be the Kennedy Democrat party. i don't think they put 2 and 2 together when i became a radical flaming liberal. i think they blamed it more on my youth than their own party. It was probably a combination of the 2 and likely my own stupidity.
It was actually the abortion issue that drove me out of the Democrat party.Long story short, i became a conservative and found myself at odds with my parents again.
They were good people irregardless of our political differences. They always believed that who you voted for was a private personal matter at least. They brought us up in a devout Catholic household.
We said the pledge in our Catholic school, attended daily Mass and started the class with our prayers. You could do that. Dad made sure we went to Sunday Mass and nobody worked that day. You were too sick to attend Mass you were too sick to play.
We got a spanking from time to time and didn't die.We did homework right after school before we were allowed to do anything else. The 10 commandments were drilled into us. We never looked down on anyone because my dad and his parents knew what it was like to be poor.
.
We would never have resorted to violence in any circumstance. BTW, i had a very happy childhood and a lot of good memories. The folks were married for 60 plus years till the day they died.
Divorce was rare especially among Catholics. We were shocked if we heard someone was getting divorced. You didn't talk about them either.
So you can see outside of the anti war period i went through i was never really a political activist in the true sense of the word.
As for today i still see violence as abhorrent-a last resort in self defense only. i do support the 2nd amendment; we grew up around guns. Dad was an avid hunter. Where we lived eveyone was an avid hunter and everyone owned a rifle.
Dad had a pistol he kept in a cabinet beside their bed. I knew it was meant for self defense only. He never took it out. Thankfully, never had reason to but it was there just in case.
Your average ultra maga citizen is just like me. Maybe not the same background but we share most of the same values.
We just want to get on with our lives. We hope for a true representative government but we really haven't seen that in a long time.
They've turned into the status quo looking out more for their own interests than ours. Now they seem totally beholden to the regime in power and that's all that matters to them, power.
i want to make it clear i was not in DC for the rally. i've never been to DC period. i watch all of Trump's rallies usually on rsbn.
We dropped cable at least a yr ago. i can get the news and stay informed from other sources. Twitter/x is great for real time breaking news. The cable news networks are dead.
The media is a tool of the left. Always has been but they're not hiding it anymore or pretending to be unbiased like they used to. They are helping the regime make us a target.
i've known for some time that between the regime and their media they're trying to push MAGA into a corner hoping we will resort to violence. It would become the perfect excuse for them.
i see what they've done to the Jan 6 Trump supporters. i've seen what they have our legal system doing to Trump and his family.
What i find hard to believe is there aren't enough decent people in these agencies to stand up to the regime and tell them this is a bridge too far. They accuse us of everything they are doing.
They have some people belieivng we are fasicsts, Nazi's or Putin puppets. I see our country turning into a banana republic right before my eyes.
My parents, God rest their souls, would be horrified to hear me called a fascist, Nazi or puppet of a communist dictator. especially because dad risked his life in WWII against the fascists.
They'd never believe such a thing about me. They would know better. I have no criminal bacground; not as much as a misdemeanor.
i know this; we're NOT terrorists. MAGA loves our country. We're proud of being Americans. We want everyone in America to be successful, enjoy our freedoms and be able to hand onto their kids the kind of country we grew up in.
We hope people of every race, creed and age (young,old or middle age) will join our MAGA movement. Your status doesn't matter. We don't care if you're rich, poor or middle class. All are welcome who respect our country, Constitution and flag.
The only box you have to check here is American. You don't need any special pronouns as an introduction, just know that you're among friends. We have each other's backs. We put a premium on loyalty.
You stab our President Trump in the back consider yourself banished from the MAGA movement. We'd go to the ends of the earth for you but you do that it's over. We've seen enough of the backstabbers too many times.
* back in the day when Rolling Stone was more a music rag with a smattering of politics. Now it's mostly politics with a smattering of music.
