Progressive Democratic Rep. Jamaal Bowman warned of a stark outcome if Republicans take back power in the November midterm elections — one that would “embolden” far-right extremists and white nationalists who he claims “have been pushing” for “civil war.”
During a Saturday interview with MSNBC’s “The Cross Connection with Tiffany Cross,” the Bronx-Westchester member of the congressional “Squad” led by socialist darling Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) claimed Republicans will quickly take action to halt Democratic progress in the investigation into the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, saying the House select committee’s findings would be “completely suppressed.”
Bowman also claimed the GOP would “impeach President Biden as quickly as possible

Sounds like a really cry for antifa BLM and rent a mob rioters and crisis actors to get ready for a real hot summer of fun.

Why would there be a civil war? I think if that's what you want, you're in the wrong country. Find some little country somewhere that changes government with war on a regular basis. That's not the United States.

The ruling party of the American south (democrat) started the first civil war so, no one should be surprised by threats of a second.
But this does not have to be. For those who believe in the power of prayer: Psalm 34:15-18, Psalm 9:16, Psalm 10:15, Psalm 37:17, Psalm 140:8, Proverbs 11:5, 2 Thessalonians 3:2, 1 Peter 3:12 as assigned.
Y'all know what to do. :-)

One more: Leviticus 26:6
"I will also grant peace in the land, so that you may lie down and there will be no one to make you afraid..." (from the Bible Gateway; https://www.biblegateway.com/verse/en/Leviticus%2026%3A6).
This promise was originally given to ancient Israel, and don't we need it today?

Only 34% of democrats think violence is ok for dealing with 'radical extremists'? With pro life centers being vandalized and firebombed and protests aimed at shutting down the Supreme Court ( not to mention the armed, would be murderer)...
Send for the violent? Don't bother, they're here.

In reality, the lie-berals in this country started fighting a civil war back in the 1960's. They have fought it pretty much unopposed and have done so much damage to our nation with their socialist ideals and immoral values!!!
What they truly fear is that we, the normal, sane, and moral people of this nation are finally getting fed up and are going to start fighting back!!! Then the lie-beral soy-boys and bull dykes are going to find out what it's like to have to actually get down, dirty, and bloody!!! Expect them to be running back to Mommy's basement very quickly to find some "safe spaces" when that happens!!!

It pains me to agree with a democrat but the dude's fears are valid. Joe Biden should have been impeached months ago. The government is totally corrupted and packed with far leftists, LGBTQ morons and people well below the required intelligence level needed to lead a country. They need to be replaced. Most people will not be spectators this time if the animals go wild and begin to burn cities again.
#2 made an astute statement, "That's not the United States."
It isn't the United States now.

It's Bowman who is threatening to foment a civil war.
It's preposterous to think that people with no weapons, who were, for the most part, allowed and escorted into the Capitol Building and then into the House and Senate chambers by the armed Capitol Police, were "insurrectionists" bent on overthrowing the U.S. government.

In reality we've been in a civil war for the last decade or so, but only one side has been doing the fighting. Our side has been passively surrendering every step of the way, and now the left controls ALL our federal agencies (including for the first time our military), education institutions at all levels, large corporations, and almost all of our media.
As far as I'm concerned, let the hot war begin. We need to re-take territory and entire societal and cultural institutions. And the left has made it clear that they won't relinquish them through elections or other peaceful means. So yeah, bring it, dummy.

Caution: In democrat run cities, prosecutors who are inspired and funded by George Soros are aligned with rioters and against the Second Amendment. These prosecutors have no regard for “shall not be infringed.” They can and will bring felony charges against citizens who use firearms for home defense. As with the McCloskeys, even brandishing a gun in self defense can get you arrested.

Jamaal sure sounds like he's making a threat and a promise. I have news for him and his party when you come to take my freedoms and my guns you better bring yours. A civil war just might solve this quickly winner take all because strung out elections and years of deadhead presidents hasn't worked. I'm old and can think in terms of the next election cycle we'll show them 2020 showed us how one party plays so maybe all they understand is an armed standoff to solve this. The Founding Fathers knew these freedoms are protected by the freedom lovers who own guns.

This represents a terrific opportunity for the probable Republican Speaker of the House, to work with the AOC crowd, using special committees. There has to be some common ground, and a clever legislative leader, LBJ for example as Senate Majority Leader, or Newt Gingrich as Speaker of the House. As the iconic Lakerman, I would select lead paint remission as the top domestic issue to be handled by the Joint Committee. Even AOC would have have to get on board on lead.o
You people may not remember this, but when Newt became Speaker, the Republicans and had run on a Contract With America = a specific legislative agendas,and every morning in the House, one Republican would get up and speak briefly on one of the points of that Contract.
Then some Dimocrats would get up and file misconduct charges against Newt. (97 charges were filed, 96 were disproven, and one stuck - that Newt misspoke, saying a staff attorney had reviewed a document) and eventually, Dollar Bill Clinton took credit for some of the points in the Contract.
And over time , the Diomocrat whining against Newt faded.

If by 'Civil war', does he mean that White people might put a stop to the 'polar bear' game, black on White crime that presently goes unpunished, BLM running rampant thru the streets, the smash and grab crimes and other freedoms black thugs presently enjoy? That's a civil war I'm looking forward too!

Well if a Civil War is announced by the progressives and socialists, and before long after that, a majority of the long haul truck drivers of America announce that they will no longer transport food and other necessary commodities into the Democrat run liberal big cities as the civil war progressed, what would happen next in those “food desert” progressive and socialist Democrat run big cities? Chances are as havoc exploded in those “ communities” we would not hear anymore out of so-called progressives like Bowman as they are held to account and flee their disgruntled inner city constituencies. Since about fifty percent of Americans, as recent polls show, believe that something violent may occur after the November election results are announced, it is possible that the country may well experience something such as a second civil war, we will just have to be ready, wait, and see what happens.

Mick Turn, Liberals actually own a lot of guns - maybe not legally, but they are well armed. Their leaders have brigades of hired professionals, their brownshirts regularly use them in their drug deals and carjackings.
Do not imagine, this will be a walk in the park.

Yeah, can't have Pelosi and Schumer exposed as the source of the Jan. 6th problems. If any president in our nation's history needed to have the 25th amendment applied, it would be Biden. Simply because it is elder abuse for him to continue with his mental deterioration.
