If We Don't Act, 2% of the People Are
About To Control the Other 98%

Original Article

Posted By: Pluperfect, 6/30/2020 5:01:43 AM

I was once told if we’re not careful, 2 percent of the passionate will control 98 percent of the indifferent 100 percent of the time. The more I’ve thought about this phrase, the more I believe it. There is now a small group of passionate people working hard to destroy our American way of life. Treason and treachery are rampant and our rule of law and those law enforcement professionals who uphold our laws are under the gun more than at any time in our nation’s history. These passionate 2 percent appear to be winning. Despite there being countless good people

No, it has not already happened. It will if Trump does not get re-elected.

Every day I get on these sites looking for evidence of some kind of pushback. There are small pockets of resistance here and there, but overall it appears the Mob is making great gains. The Reflublicans for the most part have been execrable. Trump is running up the hill alone. #2 is right, as usual--if this goes down in November......

Community organizing and gathering up the 51% of useful idiots is the game plan. 4 months should be enough time for the mob mentality to calm down and logic prevail.

Some politicians and police chiefs are about to allow the laziest, craziest, dumbest two percent control some parts of the country. That passion the author speaks of is insanity and lawlessness. Law enforcement allows themselves to be under the gun; they refuse (in some cases) to be the first line of defense. All because they'll be accused of being racist; as if that's not happening anyway. It's the narrative to achieve another goal. A lot of US haven't been impacted personally by what's going on, but we're thinking about what will happen when we are impacted. Don't think that because we haven't taken to the streets to combat crazies, crazies are succeeding. The really big picture is we need to see that the rule of law applies to everyone. If obama and company are prosecuted, that will go a long way into restoring law and order. The little leftists will see it, and a new campaign will be started, and it will be called another "MeToo" movement. If I think I'm king obama can face criminal charges, so can we. Babies crying. Heaven on earth for the rest of US.

I observe companies, corporations, organizations, schools, Hollywood etc. jumping on the platform of "social justice, equality or whatever" and I am perplexed. Shouldn't they have been doing this all along? When I see websites, correspondence, banners now claiming support for social justice and equality, I usually gravitate to one thought. These individuals or groups have now told me that they haven't been doing it all along. They are the problem. . . Faithful believers know that God doesn't look at physical attributes with His people, God looks at what is in a person's heart. I have the heart of a medic or the heart of a believer because "All Hearts Matter" to me.

I believe that my fellow patriotic Americans are on the same page. We are alarmed by the complacency of our Republican Representatives and Senators. The absolute vile chaos we are witnessing begs for pushback by any sane American, but to watch our leaders sit on the sidelines while our country is being destroyed is unacceptable. This violence and destruction cannot be allowed to continue despite it being sanctioned by the democrats and their fellow travelers in the media. Very few Republican leaders speak with authority on behalf of the millions of Americans who are devastated by the destruction we see. Cities are torched, monuments destroyed, people are terrorized and yet there is no real pushback by those who have sworn an oath to protect and defend the Constitution from all enemies both foreign and domestic. It disgusts me that the cowards we elected are so afraid of the mob that they are essentially worthless. Law and order is not a difficult concept to articulate. Americans understand that our system will collapse without it. Violence is not the way to change hearts and minds. In fact, it does the opposite. Discussion and real conversation is made impossible if one side is destroying everything in its path to achieve its goals. Most Americans will not be bullied. While we are a peace loving. neighborly people, we will not allow our country to be destroyed by violent mobs. Before American patriots step up and take on the challenge, our leaders have a responsibility to lead. Republicans should be making the case for law and order. At the first act of violence, the police should have stepped on to stop it. We know they were hamstrung by the democrat leaders in the cities that have been hit the hardest. However, we must make the case to those minorities in those cities that the destruction they are experiencing comes from democrats who have failed them. This is the job of our leadership and they are failing miserably in addressing this destructive force that has moved into their communities to rob them of their right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Republicans must make an effort to bring the black community leaders together who understand what the democrats have done to their communities and why. The last thing democrats want is an informed black community. They want to be able to stir hate up just for the sake of creating an atmosphere of chaos and violence to use to gain political power. Democrat history is rife with examples of promises made but never kept. Republicans should be offering solutions. They have a history to point to in the policies put in place by this President. Make the case. Seize the moment from a radical minority that is driving all this destruction. Stand up for what is right and lawful. Condemn lawlessness and police brutality. Support the good law enforcement officers who do their job right. Given the choice between continued chaos and mayhem or peace and prosperity, most people will choose to live peacefully. Ignore the radicals. They offer nothing but hate and violence. Speak to the 98%. The 2% are destroying the support of people who want something besides hate, violence and mayhem. Republicans must be fearless in getting out the message of real hope, long term hope, and life changing hope. We are the party of inclusion. We are not about skin color. We are all about building a constituency of individuals who love this country and realize that what binds us together is mutually shared values, goals, and freedom to achieve anything with hard work and determination. Republican leadership must step up and articulate a message of real hope and prosperity for all. Either we do that or we will be faced with a future that is a nightmare of tyranny, violence and chaos.

Spot on! Unfortunately to varying degrees the 2% are supported by 49% and if we became a democracy that 51% controls everything. Furthermore by their nature the 51% are more likely to be followers who will allow the 2% to dominate. A vote for a democrat today is a vote in support of the radical mob. Everything the decent people who still vote democrat think they are voting against, racism, fascism is exactly what they are voting for with one exception, abortion. This is exactly what our founders faced with the slavery issue. They couldn't throw off the yoke of a ruling king without tabling the slavery issue. We will not save the republic without tabling the abortion issue. It's our neighbors with whom we wish to maintain cordial relationships that hold us back. While we seek to avoid confrontation with even the best of the 51% we are surrendering to the worst 2%.

..the main reason this human garbage on the streets is "getting away" with this crap is because we have a dishonest, cowardly, partisan media that puts forth propaganda supporting them. ...how can this be remedied ??....not sure ...but , it's worth noting that recently muslims in Europe didn't like how they were being portrayed in the media ( largely as violent murderers...which they disagreed with) ...and so 5 years ago a small group of them paid a visit to the newspaper called Charlie Hebdo...and violently murdered a bunch of "journalists"...!! ...agreed...that was harsh...and some would say "ironic"...but...their message got thru... cowardly "journalists" in Europe ( and the U.S.) immediately decided to "be more fair towards muslims " now...?? ...what will it take here for "journalists" to get the message ...??....

Follow the money behind the 2%. Its probably billions. Maybe even trillions. Some of it isn't even American. Its foreign. None of this has occurred in a vacuum. These protests are organized, and they require alot of money. It took years to get this far. The election of obama didn't occur by accident. It was a culmination of lefty globalista interests. Don't blame just the Democrats. Its clear they have a huge part in this, but the Republicans have deliberately not provided an alternative. It took an INDIVIDUAL like Trump to provide an alternative, and voters jumped at the opportunity. The lefty globalistas aren't happy. How dare their 'lessers' defy their plans! They have tried to remove Trump from office. They likely brought us CV19. They definitely brought us the race riots, and the new 'social justice' where everything white is racist. Don't expect to ride on Trump's shoulders to victory. Why? Just look at the forces arrayed against him, and what has been thrown and him. What's been going on is unprecedented. people are going to have to WORK HARD to defend their freedoms. There is a word for people standing on the sidelines unwilling to raise a hand to defend themselves: Its called decadence. Many a nation has fallen to tyranny because of decadence. Don't let it happen here. The people against Trump are tyrants and dictators. They don't believe in Democracy, representative government, equal rights, or justice. Elect the wrong people come November and kiss your freedom and rights goodbye.

The real problem is that the 2% is being urged on by the 99% of the Democrat leaders in the big blue cities where 100% of all this is happening. It's not happening in the rural and suburban areas of red counties where the 2% would be wiped out like road kill if they tried anything to harm our property or our families. What are we supposed to do, jump in our SUVs and drive downtown and start shooting? No, they're clever enough to be inflicting damage where the Democrat leaders have provided them with immunity and free range to play Urban Paintball Wars and Kwanzaa Shopping. So they're cleverly avoiding us and the probability that they'll end up meeting their maker, Satan, if they target us directly. What's really irritating is that except for Trump, our elected Republican "leaders" are too chickenshiite to even utter a peep for fear of being called racists, which they're called anyway.

At this point the mob seems to be winning the war against property and personal stores, police cars and anything that stands in their way. Statues don't fight or shoot back it's all been an easy game for them. Force and the fact that if something could become too dangerous for them to proceed and not worth losing their life will they understand. The mob fears a shop owner pointing a gun at them robbing the store and breaking glass doesn't seem worth their lives. It's time to use ordnance with real bullets not rubber ones if some police in the cities surrendered then whose going to protect you and your home, only you so push back when the time arrives with all the force you can conjure up.

Ive been saying for several years now that the US us a country increasingly governed by the offended minority. The offended minority play a population tgat us generally adverse to confrontation and one that prides itself by being fair, tolerant and open minded. In a civilized society, the above attributes are desirable and a plus. When said society is at war with itself, the above attributes are a weakness to be exploited. Liberals have been exploiting conservative good faith for decades. Today we bear witness to the inevitable results of not standing up to the enemy at the gates. They are rampaging thru the castle, while our elected officials and employeers, if not chearing the mob, admonish us to not hurt their feelings.

There was an article yesterday on American Thinker called Driving Conservatives Underground. If you missed it, look it up. It is spot on about how most of us Trumpsters won't be responding to polls or putting out flags or bumper stickers because of the crazy people out there. This is not the America I grew up in. I truly fear another civil war is on the horizon.

By the way, I omitted one category of people - politicians. That brings me to an additional thought. I am not on board with some of the posters here. Seems like the first thing done is put the blame in the ball court of Republicans and, sorry, not going there. I would say that the RNC has not done a good job of defining just what a Republican is and we have ended up with politicians that should never have been running as a Republican. That I do agree with but it stops there. In my above post, I asked the question "shouldn't they have been doing this all along" and that is aimed mostly at the Democrat party. For so long they have been masking their inequality and social injustice by falsely claiming they are for equality and social justice. Why are Democrat cities the most poorly run?

The militias and mobs in the streets are arms of the Democrat Party, funded, controlled, and incited by them. We are battling a lot more than 2% of the population. And the Democrats are winning. Republicans are joining them. The Democrats want the lockdowns and masks, and the Republicans, like always, agree with the Democrats, and follow the lead of the Democrats. We have nobody but Trump. Republicans have been in charge, and we already have socialism, and the green new deal, right now. The government is controlling every aspect of our lives, and our businesses, right now. Voting for Republicans has not saved us. These lockdowns are a surrender of our liberty and our property. Republicans have again been stupid fools. As for supporting our police, I don't think I am going to support a police force that arrests me for going into a store without a mask, that supports those that tell me to stay at home. Sorry, no.

What if the Chinese released the Covid virus as an act of war? [Doh.] I mean, don't you guys KNOW? What if we are at war with them? So, have we surrendered? Fauci guaranteed Trump would have a plague to deal with -- wasn't that a little "prescient"? Was he involved? Well, YES he was, getting the funding for continuing "research" by the Wuhan Lab.Maybe "Traitors for Obama?" Biden is "projecting" TODAY that Trump has surrendered us to the virus -- so we know this was statement was approved by someone higher. Obama? Is the GOPe plan to stay home indefinitely, crash the world economies, and be surprised on the Day of the EMP? Because this RNA flu will never go away. What if an improved new pestilence is ready to send to the West? [Why not? The Japs bombed Pearl Harbor -- their mistake was not moving on to California.] 98% of the people won't catch this virus, and those that will have a 0.008% chance of dying from it. What if the next one is made to order for couch potatoes on welfare, and warriors against statues and church windows of a white HOLY SAVIOR, like the one on Sugarloaf Mountain in Rio? When are the Black Christians with sound minds going to speak?

I agree wholeheartedly with poster #8. Those companies, businesses, etc. just now jumping on the bandwagon don't realize they are admitting to systemic racism. They're saying they've paid blacks less, they've overlooked blacks in promotions, and they've even cheated blacks when it comes to health care policies. It's similar to places like Walmart saying they are cutting their store hours to allow their staff to clean and sanitize the place. My question to Walmart and entities getting suddenly woke is, you mean you haven't been doing that or that's what you've been doing? People's thought processes are shot.

Socialist/Communist/Nazi/Islamist governments don't do away with their police forces. They augment them with true believers, and put them to work to root out opposition. And if the cops can't handle it, let's send in the military, like at Tienanmen Square. And yet so many want our Federal government to get into the "reform" game...and still try to argue that states have powers. Where is "local police reform" among the enumerated Federal powers listed in the Constitution? Tyranny comes in many forms, and that 2% cited is actually X% split into smaller "dictatorships" with their own ideas of Utopia.

Here is the dilemma facing the decent, law-abiding citizens of this great nation: 1. The mobs have learned that their unlawful, anarchist actions - I.e., force - will not be met in kind by force. 2. As is always true with mobs, they will increase their violence and assault objectives, encouraged by the total lack of retribution for their actions. 3. The 98% slowly see that government will not protect them or their property from the mobs and are greatly discouraged. 4. Government at all levels does not enforce its laws and this leads to more lawlessness (illegal immigration and sanctuary cities come to mind as two prime examples that started this lawlessness state). 5. Eventually, the 98% either decide to give in or are left with the distasteful choice of meeting force with force to protect themselves and their property. 6. Once they act accordingly, government suddenly gets the desire to enforce the law. 7. Many of the 98% will then conclude it isn't worth it, and, thus, the forces of evil win. I wish I were wrong, but it is going to take some use of force to teach the woke, lily white snowflakes who are a large percentage of the rioters that it is not worth it. Until then, we are stuck with mob violence and a government (at all levels) that refuses to perform its most basic function: protection of its citizens.

You cannot have a country or culture like ours when it is led by immoral and amoral people, who are chosen or voted into office at all levels, by a populace that is equally immoral or amoral. You need not go any further than that. If you claim that decent, solid people get into leadership and then become deep state bottom feeders, I will grant you that because it does happen. However, the fact that they STAY in positions of leadership says more about the voters and the country at large, than does the wicked person's actions: why is it that the US has become cowardly and unable to uproot crooks from its government, when the Constitution gives us exit doors and avenues? Is it because we do not value what we have? That's my theory. There is NO reason under heaven why a putrid politician like Pelosi should be in office as long as she has been; blame the voters, you say. NO, blame her congressional colleagues, D and R alike; blame the voters who don't voice any opposition and who don't lobby to railroad her out.The fiber of the country has deteriorated so that people become afraid of their own shadow because it's more important to have comfort and peer acceptance than to have moral fortitude and convictions. On that course, the people will have the government they deserve.

Here we are in the midst of a once-in-a-half-century pandemic, with the economy flattened, millions of people unemployed, and unrest on the streets of our cities. And President-elect Joe Biden says that one of his highest priorities as president will be to reenter the Paris climate accord. President Trump kept his "put America first" promise and pulled the United States out of this Obama-era treaty. Biden wants us back in. Why? Paris is an unmitigated failure. You don't have to take my word for it. National Geographic, a supporter of climate change action, recently ran the numbers and admitted in its recent headline: "Most countries aren't hitting 2030 climate goals."

Teachers unions have been instrumental in keeping American schools online during the pandemic. But some have escalated their positions on reopening to include an array of social justice demands. A set of demands from teachers unions in July, which addressed how to safely reopen schools amid a pandemic, was criticized by The Wall Street Journal editorial board as “political extortion.” The board argued that unions were taking advantage of a health crisis to advance their own ideological agendas and to eliminate competition from charter schools.

Why do we do this to ourselves every four years? We talk incessantly about the latest poll in Florida and Michigan and Pennsylvania and Arizona until we are blue in the face. Then they turn out to be wildly wrong. When will we ever learn? It reminds me of that old saying which I think was from Einstein, “The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.” Polling, at least the old-school style, is over. Done. I don’t need to go through a long list of reasons why nobody should take pollsters seriously anymore, but a few data points are instructive.
Implications of the Flynn Pardon 11 replies
Posted by Pluperfect 11/26/2020 4:51:29 AM Post Reply
President Trump granted a pardon to Michael Flynn, his former national-security adviser, today. Flynn had pled guilty to lying to FBI agents about conversations, during the 2016 transition, with the Russian ambassador about sanctions. Flynn’s pardon should bring to an end one gross violation of the Constitution’s separation of powers, even as it gives rise to groundless accusations of another. Although Flynn had pled guilty, the circumstances of the case had raised serious concerns about whether the government had proceeded properly. The FBI, for example, questioned Flynn even though it did not appear he had violated any law. In May, Attorney General William Barr ordered the case dropped.

The first Thanksgiving in the New World was celebrated in 1621, nearly a year after the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth. In 1789, George Washington became the first of many US presidents to formally proclaim a day of “public thanksgiving and prayer”: I do recommend and assign Thursday, the 26th day of November next, to be devoted by the people of these States to the service of that great and glorious Being who is the beneficent author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be; that we may then all unite in rendering unto Him

Minnesota is one of a number of states that are living under what amounts to martial law. Our proto-fascist dictator Tim Walz, in his latest edict, purports to ban traditional Thanksgiving get-togethers: Saturday, Nov. 21 through Friday, Dec. 18, Executive Order 20-99 requires all Minnesotans to: * Limit social gatherings to one household. * Not gather outside of your household. * Postpone all celebrations, events, receptions, and parties, including any social gatherings for weddings and funerals. So it is “illegal” for me to invite any of my four kids to Thanksgiving dinner.

Former President Barack Obama in an appearance on "The Breakfast Club" radio show on Wednesday said that attacks by Georgia Sen. Kelly Loeffler against her runoff opponent Raphael Warnock over his connection with Rev. Jeremiah Wright are "crazy stuff" as he defended Wright as a "supremely gifted preacher." Obama appeared on the popular radio show and podcast to promote his book "A Promised Land," which details much of his presidency, including his 2008 presidential campaign during which his connection to Wright became an issue. Wright has a history of controversial comments, including a sermon in which he said "God damn America" when referencing racial injustice.

The U.S. Supreme Court on Wednesday night blocked New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo from reimposing strict attendance caps at worship services in areas hit hard by the novel coronavirus. The court ruled 5-4 to bar Cuomo from enforcing his Oct. 6 “Cluster Initiative” against houses of worship that sued to challenge the restrictions. The order was also the first in which Justice Amy Coney Barrett played a decisive role. Barrett, who was President Trump's third Supreme Court nominee, joined the court Oct. 27, after winning Senate confirmation following the Sept. 18 death of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

Are furbished product is seldom as desirable as a brand-new one. Joe Biden must be assuming Americans can’t tell the difference. Even as President Trump battles uphill to overturn the results of the recent presidential election, faces familiar during the earlier Age of Obama are reappearing in President-elect-apparent Biden’s pantheon of power. The looming Biden era promises to be Obama 3.0 — Hillary Clinton in 2016 was to be Obama 2.0, but new models don’t always live up to the original (see Windows Vista). Jen Psaki, communications director for the Obama White House and now filling a similar role during the nomination process, describes the emerging Biden brand:

As we reported two days ago, Joe Biden completely made no sense when he was trying to explain the Wuhan coronavirus relief bill. It was really bad and it explains why they’re afraid to have him deliver an address to Congress or do any kind of a real solo press conference, because at this point they have to be afraid this is all going to fall apart if he does anything live and this all becomes too obvious to the American people. But there’s only so long that they can hold this off. And it’s getting worse, as video today revealed. Biden was holding an event to announce the nomination

Democrat Senator Joe Manchin (WV) appears to have started to shift his views on the filibuster with remarks that he made on two news shows on Sunday morning.The shift from Manchin comes after he has repeatedly stated that he would not vote to end the filibuster, despite pressure from the far-Left. During the interviews on Sunday, Manchin repeatedly claimed that he was not open to ending the filibuster because he did not want to strip the minority party of their power in the Senate, but signaled that he was open to changing it.Fox News host Chris Wallace asked Manchin if he would consider “reforming the filibuster” if “Republicans

Nancy Pelosi’s top priority is to turn America into a one-party nation ruled by Democrats. Her bill HR 1 trashes the U.S. Constitution in an attempt to rig the system and make it virtually impossible to elect a Republican president or Congress again. It’s a power grab. The bill eviscerates state voting laws and forces all the states to conform to a set of rules that includes automatic voter registration. Anyone who goes to a DMV or applies for food stamps, Medicaid or other social services, or attends a public college will be automatically enrolled to vote. Noncitizens are obligated to identify themselves and opt out,

I keep calling him general, but my, my—the guy who runs that outfit over there,” Biden said.(Snip) Earlier at the event, Biden mentioned the Defense Department leader by his name, “Secretary Austin,” while appearing to read from a teleprompter.

I’m probably second to none in my dislike for Meghan Markle. There’s something unattractive about a mature woman marrying into the British Royal family with one of the world’s most expensive weddings, hanging out with the Queen, living in insane luxury…and then whining non-stop about the horror of her life. There’s something even less appealing when that woman accuses the Royal family of race hatred. And the problem is that, when it comes to that left-wing diva, Meghan Markle, it’s hard to believe most of what she says. After weeks of hype, CBS finally televised Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s interview with Oprah.

Appearing on Yahoo! News’ Skullduggery podcast, the Tennessee Democrat said the effort is getting a fresh look after the release of a new movie highlighting the FBI’s secret program to discredit civil rights activists. The Washington Times in 2019 first reported Democrats’ bid to strip the longtime FBI director’s name from the bureau’s headquarters. Mr. Cohen said the impetus to revive the bid is the new movie, “Judas and the Black Messiah.” The movie details

But somehow we missed it.” Tom Stoppard The millions of Americans who were paying attention throughout the 2020 election campaign all became painfully aware of the fact that Joe Biden’s cognitive abilities were slipping and slipping fast. His wife, as the person closest to him, should have been the one to call the campaign quits in order to reduce stress on the man. Instead, apparently so anxious to become the First Lady by any means necessary, Mrs. Biden continued to push her failing husband’s campaign forward as if he were mentally qualified.
