Smooth transition of power

| October 13, 2020

Some Dems have been making noise about Trump refusing to leave the White House in the event of his loss in the upcoming election. Pretty hilarious, considering they have been trying to oust him and his administration even before he took the Oath of Office.
The Far Left even has contingency plans in the event of a close election, in an effort to force Trump from office via methods they’ve used in Portland, Seattle, and other Dem enclaves.

Left-wing Radicals Post Online Guide to ‘Disrupting’ the Country if Election is Close

By JOEL B. POLLAK

An organization of radical left-wing activists has posted an online guide to “disruption” that outlines a plan to shut down the country and force President Donald Trump from power in the event that the 2020 election is too close to call.

The guide, “Stopping the Coup,” available as a Google doc, is being circulated by a group called ShutDownDC. It casts its plan for disruption as a response to an imagined “coup” by the president in the case of a close election.

In an email promoting the guide, ShutDownDC declares: “Preventing Donald Trump from stealing the election and remaining in office is likely to take mass, sustained disruptive movements all over the country.” The guide is a manual to that “disruption.”

Parts of the guide are committed to ensuring a “fair election.” Parts of it, however, read like a manual for staging a coup rather than a guide to preventing one:

In the context of a coup or highly contested election we need to be clear that our actions must directly affect the structures and pillars of power. Our largest asset in this regard utilizes the ideas of non-compliance through massive, broad based direct action. Where we can, we need to be in the streets, on the highways, or at the sites of power and power holders. In our jobs and lives we must refuse to allow those taking control the legitimacy of the power they seek through strikes, slowdowns, and boycotts, and public refusal to accept an illegitimate ruling party.

Another section urges activists to stop American life from continuing if the election does not go their way (original emphasis):

In order to really win we will need to force some pillars of power (business, military, media, or other major institutions) to decide to side with the people, or at least get out of the way. If everyday life goes on, a despot will not leave power, and so there will be no incentive for real systems change. You want to think about what it might take to stop business-as-usual.

More noise from the fringe? Perhaps. Regardless, most Americans I know will not respond well to “direct action” and “force.” Read the rest here: Breitbart

Thanks, Poe.

Be patient grasshopper. Trump needs to win before that can happen.

5th/77th FA

More evidence that the domestic enemies of this country will do whatever it takes to reverse their loss of the 2016 election. I, again, blame both parties for the conditions we are facing today. I agree with Skippy that the government has sat on their collective asses and done nothing. The law requires the election be certified in December and the transition of power is in January. So, either way, Trump is still legally President until then. This “Manifesto” is a blatant move to let us know that what,we the people, want is mox nix. It is what they want. The dems were unpleasantly surprised that the Electoral College showed Trump the winner, and the RINOS did absolutely NOTHING for the Country since then.

Get ready little Lady, Hell is coming to breakfast.

Buy ammo (if you can find it). Better to have and not need, then the other way around.

OWB

Funny how those who have been attempting a coup for years continue to accuse others of wishing one. Just the typical accusations from the left. They always let us know what they are doing/want based upon what they say we are doing/want.

Meanwhile, they continue to foment despair among Trump voters hoping it will reduce the numbers who actually vote this year. Yeah, “voter suppression” is a real thing. It’s just that only one side seems to practice it.

Attempting to stop this American’s “business as usual” life may well result in the ruin of the life of whosoever attempts it.

America is stronger than any one President. Should President Trump lose the election he will be shown the door. There is a reason our founding fathers ensured we have a separation of powers. The Congress and the Judiciary are there, in part, to make sure elections are followed.

LC

It’s going to be a shit-show no matter who wins – if Biden wins, some on the far right are already talking about civil war, and if Trump wins, more on the far left are going to riot, loot and cause mayhem. I tend to think Americans across the spectrum have far more in common with each other than they do about these fringe assholes, so it’d be nice to see us band together before we’re torn apart.

Part of that, in my opinion, is distancing the political leanings from these assholes. People pushing anarchy and chaos aren’t ‘far left’, they’re anarchists. And people pushing civil war aren’t ‘far right’, they’re anti-American extremists. Feel free to swap those two adjectives, or use other ones, if you think there’s a bias there. The fact is, the peaceful, lawful transition of power is central to our country’s character, and supported by the vast majority of her people.

26Limabeans

“anarchists” wish to destroy.
“extremists”, your word… wish to protect.
I’m still waiting for that peaceful transition of power back in 2016.
Let me know when we get there.

Ex-PH2

They are part and parcel of the same group, LC.

You are way off base on that subject. Radicalism is radicalism no matter what side of the fence it pretends to occupy. They may pretend to be opposites, but they are nothing but flip sides of the same coin.

Let me know when that sinks in.

penguinman000

Hit the nail on the head. I agree.

11B-Mailclerk

Count me as three.

America has survived worse. We got this.

Commissar

Trump is not going to concede.

He is a slave to his dark triad fo personality disorders.

He is no longer even trying to win the election.

He is focusing his efforts on attacking the credibility of the results.

And when his power structures collapse you all will find out that he was money laundering for Putin connected oligarchs and is deeply compromised by the Kremlin.

If he were a democrat the mere fact that his 2016 campaign manager was a foreign agent for Putin backed Ukrainians would be enough to make you suspicious.

But even if you gave him the benefit of the doubt…, the fact that his 2020 campaign manager was a foreign agent for Putin himself would be more than enough evidence to make you question the notion that the Russia connection is a hoax.

The fact that Mueller outlined extensive and continuous connections between active Russian agents and the a Trump campaign, and proved in court that a dozen Trump officials lied to cover it up. That the campaign solicited and accepted Russian assistance for their campaign.

All detailed in the Mueller report you all did not bother to read because you dismissed it as a Hoax.

Trump also openly, publicly, explicitly, and continuously obstructed the Russia investigation.

Trump knows that losing means his power structure collapses and with it all the mechanisms of obstruction that have sheltered him from accountability, not just for his criminal activities connected to Eastern Europe and Russia, but tax fraud, and financial fraud.

His wounded narcissism would prevent him from conceding in of itself, but he has more to lose than the White House if he loses the seat of power.

I told you all he won’t concede. I told you all he will claim the election was fraudulent.

You all dismiss the possibility as liberal bullshit.

But, in three weeks, many of you will suddenly be on here claiming that the election was fraudulent and Trump should not concede and that he should serve a second term.

Ex-PH2

You keep proving yourself to be an idiot, over and over. At least you are consistently idiotic.

Commissar

You never read the report.

I am not the one being an idiot.

A Proud Infidel®™️

You are little more than a herd animal in your cult, Major Moonbat.

Commissar

So ridiculous.

Which cult?

Who am I following?

I hate the Clintons.

I was disappointed with Obama, immensely.

I supported a Bernie in 2016, but Warren this year.

And I am not thrilled with Warren.

I still liked Bernie more but felt Warren was more astute at public policy.

I hate the Democratic Party almost as much as I hate the Republican Party.

I voted for McCain, Bush Sr…

I spend most of my time in your echo chamber, not mine.

Exactly which cult am I in?

Sparks

“felt Warren was more astute at public policy.”

Wow Commissar. Really? You honestly believe that?

Fyrfighter

Well, she’s definitely more astute at getting jobs based on falsely claiming a racial preference based on a lie.. or gaining sympathy falsely claiming discrimination based on pregnancy… I guess there’s a reason she’s referred to as lieawatha…

SFC D

Warren’s only stated public policy was “I have a plan for that”. No plan has been seen.

Let me know when Hillary concedes. For real.

Commissar

She conceded, for real, on November 9th, 2016. Dipshit.

She had a televised concession speech, played by every single broadcast news agency in the country. On prime time. And then clips replayed several times on every news hour for 24 hours.

It is so god damn stupid that you cult members believe she never conceded just because a Trump sometimes says it.

You all will completely deny reality and manufacture your own merely based on a Trump tweet.

Not stronger evidence of cult like behavior than that.

SFC D

And yet, she continually screeches about winning the popular vote. In her shriveled, blackened heart, she still believes herself to be the rightfully elected President, just as Stacey Abrams
continues to believe she’s a victim of voter suppression and should be the governor of GA. You’re all cut from the same deluded cloth, running around pointing fingers. You’re a fraud.

HtC

She did win the popular vote. This is a fact. It doesn’t change the fact that she conceded, or that she is not president.

SFC D

Tell Hillary. The rest of us learned that in 7th grade civics class.

Poetrooper

Hillary conceded in word–not in deed.

As always with the Clintons and most on the left, it’s not what they say but what they do that is real.

You know that Lars and just because you come here and say you hate them doesn’t make it so…

HtC

Hillary is not president. She is not occupying the Oval Office. She is not claiming that she is President of the United States. So in what “deed” exactly did she not concede?

Poetrooper

That’s the downside to utilizing such expressions–you end up having to explain them to those who think too literally.

Hillary made the requisite concession speech–thereby conceding in word.

She then went on for the next four years promoting the Russia Hoax, which she originally funded, refuting that concession speech by her ongoing deeds.

That simple enough for you?

HtC

I honestly don’t recall hearing much from Hillary at all over the past four years. Perhaps because I don’t go looking for her opinions to find things to be mad about.

Deckie

Either that or you don’t own a television set, HtC…

26Limabeans

Did you read her book?
Or better yet..did you buy her book?

rgr769

I think he is angling to be our third regular predictable prog.

HtC

Nah, the toilet paper shortage never got that severe around here. I honestly try not to think too much about old Hillary at all. It’s pretty easy for me to do, since she’s not currently holding or pretending to hold any office. I don’t pay a great deal of attention to other former presidential wannabes like Mitt Romney, Michael Dukakis, or John Kerry either.

penguinman000

She did concede. She’s advocating for Biden to not concede.

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-election-clinton/hillary-clinton-says-joe-biden-should-not-concede-on-election-night-idUSKBN25L2FJ

It should come as a surprise to no one she feels zero compulsion to follow the Constitution.

rgr769

Das Hildabeast Is already wrangling for an appointment in a Harris-Biden regime. She wants to be Secretary of Defense. That ought to work out well for the country after the D-rats install themselves in power in perpetuity.

She wants to be Secretary of Defense.

Dear God. 😱

“You’re too short and you can’t see, go down the street, maybe the Dogs [Army] will take you.” – Quote that Hillary claims some Marine Recruiter said to her

11B-Mailclerk

Revenge is her thing. Remember that. She was the “enforcer” and “dirty tricks” side of Slick Willie’s success.

She was pretty nasty to uniform folks during Slick Willie’s terms. She was worse during zer0’s terms.

They voted against her, thus they must pay. Plus, that Military-Industrial Complex graft opportunity is her ticket to fabulous wealth, on top of fucking those disloyal opposing folks.

A Proud Infidel®™️

Let’s not forget the “Bimbo Eruption Squad” she kept handy when “Blowjob Willie” was at the helm!

E4 Mafia '83-'87

I bet he dismisses all the evidence the plan was hatched between the Clinton Campaign, The DNC, and with approval from the Obama Administration ya know cuz his boy Eric Ciaramella told him “the real truth”.

Trump will win AGAIN, and the Dems & you will cry for the next 4 years. Maybe real Democrat instead of a Leftist will emerge by 2024.

The Russians are coming!!! The Russians are coming!!! Only in your mouth Lars…only in your mouth.

Deckie

Yeah, she conceded… that’s why every time she puts her fat ass in front of a camera she talks about how the election was stolen and the Russians interfered.

She should have faded into obscurity… yanno, the classy thing to do when you lose? Instead she said “yah he won,” and then spent four years crying about it like her supporters did when the results came out.

Pathetic. Absolutely pathetic. I’d be so deeply ashamed if my face lived for eternity on the internet as the face of a whiney bitch when my side lost.

Commissar

Dude, she is a retired grandmother.

That’s it.

The fact that she gets to whine once in a while about her life’s greatest failure and refuses to recognize her responsibility in that failure does not mean she is not fading into obscurity.

Former Major party presidential candidates take a while to go away. Unless they die.

But Clinton whining about her loss is not going to be an excuse for what a Trump is about to do.

You all will try to use it as an excuse, but it will be bullshit, and most of you will know it to be bullshit while you do it.

SFC D

Please, take your meds. Your visions are not real and your thoughts are beyond delusional.

Deckie

I’m neither left nor right. I see it that one side or the other owes me proof they have the best interests of the country in mind and that they are worthy of my vote.

The left has not been worthy of my vote in quite some time. Their ideas and actions alone in the last 12 years have proven that to me, and their ideas going ahead show they will continue to destroy this country any way they can.

Trumps assholeish behavior aside, we did far better in four short years with him than we have with a democrat in power for quite some time now, notwithstanding the left’s hysterics in the city streets. I lived in Europe just a couple years ago where ordinary folks there even said they were happy America finally got its teeth back and weren’t taking shit from anybody. And on a recent trip to your beloved California (world’s 7th largest shithole, right?) even folks there surprised me with “Well, say what ya want but my bank account says we have been doing great. Can’t argue with that.”

Democrats hate when we prosper. They want everyone addicted to the tit so we keep electing them.

Berliner

Hildabeast is whining only because the contributions to the Clinton Foundation dried up causing her to take long walks in the woods.

With her in the Oval Office Bill and Chelsea could have out performed James and Hunter Biden in siphoning cash for connections.

Remember, with Hillary at the State Department, Chelsea’s first job out of college was at NBC in 2011 at $600k a year as a “special correspondent”… remember any of her stories? Me neither.

Since 2011 Chelsea has also reaped $9 million sitting on a board of an internet investment company.

SFC D

I watched one of her “reports”, out of morbid curiosity and to evaluate claims that Jenna Bush was getting a sweetheart deal at NBC. I’ve heard more engaging and better written book reports from 6th graders. Jenna is actually good at what she does.

rgr769

That is why Hildy is angling for a cabinet position in a Harris-Biden admin. With such an appointment, she will again have influence to sell to the Russians and Chinese. The $$$$ will again pour into the Clinton Foundation.

AW1 Rod

Yup. And in three weeks, Bigfoot will emerge from the forest on the back of a Unicorn, proclaiming Retarded Uncle Joe and Kameltoe the victors.

Commissar

In three weeks you will be convincing yourself that he is right, the election was a fraud, and he shouldn’t concede.

You will be demanding he get four more years, and even sympathizing with your frenzied peers who are talking about armed revolt.

Cults die hard.

Nice projection once again Major Moonbat, you’re proving yourself to be exactly what you are, a heavily brainwashed cultist.

Page 66, IV, 1st para, 3rd sentence:
“In particular, the investigation examined whether these contacts involved or resulted in coordination or a conspiracy with the Trump Campaign and Russia, including with respect to Russia providing assistance to the Campaign in exchange for any sort of favorable treatment in the future. Based on the available information, the investigation did not establish such coordination.”

You are a liar.

“You all dismiss the possibility as liberal bullshit.”

I can’t speak for the rest of the folks here, but I dismiss your comments as the ravings of a deranged lunatic. Politics is not involved.

Commissar

Just to be clear..,

There were 272 links between the a Trump campaign and a Russian operatives and Putin Oligarchs.

This includes 38 meetings.

All of those meeting were required to be reported by law either during the campaign or during security clearance investigations.

None of them were. Not a single meeting was reported. Not a single meeting.

Instead, Trump campaign officials lied to cover them up.

33 Trump officials either were involved or we aware of these meetings. Including Trump.

All lied or pleaded the 5th.

Trump pleaded the 5th, refused to meet with investigators, and also lied in his written answers.

The only two honest government officials in the world.

A Proud Infidel®™

I wish my Ex-Wife upon you, Major Moonbat!

Commissar

Also, Trump has not been tougher on Russia. He tweeted he was. And then some of his White House officials and Fox News started repeating the claim. Then handful of GOP opinion writers published the same claim.

But it is not true.

Penguinman000

I must’ve missed the news when Obama or Bush killed a bunch of Russians during a proxy conflict. Can you refresh my memory or does killing Russians very publicly fit you definition of “not being tougher”?

11B-Mailclerk

Wait! That factoid was supposed to be memory-holed.

rgr769

Look, a full on demo of the Marxist mollusk’s tiny fevered brain perceiving only the parallel universe in which it resides. It should star in an episode of “Fringe” in that parallel Earth.

Commissar

Also, William Barr redacted several aspects of the Mueller report as “privileged”. All to protect Trump. This is in addition to the ordinary redactions you would expect for law enforcement information, classified information, or ongoing investigation related information.

The court recently ruled those additional redactions by William Barr were not lawful, the information is not privileged, and that the report has to be released without those redactions by November 2nd.

Like all court orders involving investigations into Trump, the Trump administration is flat out ignoring and/or refusing to follow the order.

This goes onto the stack of dozens of court orders involving investigation that Trump is flat out disobeying or ordering his officials to disobey.

Hopefully someone in the administration does the right thing and releases the unredacted information. But I doubt that will happen. I definitely wouldn’t count on William Barr doing it.

Fyrfighter

Hmm, i think you’re confusing administrations. It was Eric Holder that refused to turn over information, related to fast and furious and other illegal activities, and was held in contempt. It was Hillary Clinton, while Sec State for Obama that destroyed evidence AFTER it had been subpoenaed. Wasn’t it Loretta Lynch that met with Bill Clinton, just before telling investigators, in her best jedi impersonation “these aren’t the criminals you’re looking for” (ok, more like a sith than a jedi, but you get it) As for laundering money for the Russians, wasn’t it hunter Biden that got a huge payout from the mayor of Moscow??
As always, you’re doing a great job of following Alinsky, and accusing your enemies of that which your side is actually guilty..

Yes, with a name like the Moscow Report how could it not be the “truth” according to the tin foil hat brigade. Yes, with such references as emails sent by unknown to unknown with unknown contents. I bet they could find Jimmy Hoffa if the put their Trump voodoo dolls for 5 minutes.
