Domestic Terrorists' Gather in Nevada
A man named Harry Reid represents the state of Nevada in the United States Senate. As Senate Majority Leader, he also holds one of the most powerful political offices in Washington. His former top aide heads the Bureau of Land Management, which mounted an offensive operation against the Bundy ranch earlier this month using armed agents, armored vehicles, and snipers. His son Rory represents the Chinese energy company that plans to build a huge solar panel plant on public land in the Nevada desert, as soon as the last of those annoying cattle ranchers can be evicted from real estate controlled by the federal government. The only thing standing between the Reid dynasty and the realization of its lucrative dream is a single cattle ranch near the town of Bunkerville, plus an undetermined number of dedicated and well-armed patriots who have gathered to guard it for the past several weeks.
Senator Reid is understandably frustrated with the situation in Bunkerville. Several times over past week he has referred to Oath Keepers and other patriotic groups as "domestic terrorists", and their actions as "domestic terrorism".
The following graphic, borrowed from Sipsey Street Irregulars, highlights the capricious nomenclature employed the federal government when it talks about "terrorism":

that is an excellent synopsis of the situation with our government, vis a' vis Islamic terrorism and patriotic Americans.
In my opinion, it is the US Federal Government which is terrorising the citizens of this country, and it is Harry Reid and his ilk who are the domestic terrorists.
Somehow, it seems inappropriate for every govertmental agency, such as the BLM, to have it's own standing militia, who's only reason for existence seems to be to terrorize our country with snipers, automatic weapons, armored vehicles, etc. etc. etc. while our government aids and abets Islamic terrorists here and abroad.
If I had some graphic skillz, I'd do one with Bill Ayers that says "Friend from the neighborhood", or the like...
Black panther party posting bounty to murder a man on trail for defending himself...."Community organizers"
Tea Party -- Anti-Government Rebels who need to be put down?
That's the picture Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, Rogue elements of
the IRS, and some other high ranking federal officials, including
some in the Republican Party, are desperately attempting to paint.
This is the position they would like nothing more than to have
members of the police and military, undecided and impressionable voters,
and the press, embrace.
The rank and file Democrat never needed such convincing from the
start. To more that 40% of the population, the mere mention of limited
government, regulated by the United States Constitution, is enough to
send them running to the medicine cabinet.
Many wealthy and powerful who have found the Holy Grail of "fun and
profit through public service," much to their liking (NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg)
comes immediately to mind, The Tea Party is a threat. But, let's leave the
Middle East for a moment and look a little closer to home, like Nevada.
According to Washington power, the Tea Party are the terrorists.
The bizarre thing is that they believe it. Harry Reid was in the middle of
a Chinese solar facility deal in Clark County. Actually, he had his son fronting
the deal. Harry's part was to use his authority to obtain the land. At least, without
any of this having gone to the Supreme Court, this is the appearance of it.
Resisting this kind of federal behavior, should Harry Reid have his way
could be dangerous.

-But necessary. Reid was caught off-guard by the blatancy his own authoritarian stance. I think he assumed he'd have the 'usual Dem allies' crawling out on the limb with him,
during this era when Putin is seizing the Crimea. A few pundits have... that's about it.
This type of overreach-dispute has basically already been argued in the Supreme Court in 1845, when Alabama became a State. The Feds weren't allowed to control its inland waterways... for the purposes of collecting monies via tolls or taxes;

I have been visiting around the forums lately. No one has a
definitive, or, if they do, they aren't letting it out. The question
I am not going to ask out there is, "Is this it?"
Obama needs money. The path of least resistance may be the
resources of the western USA, which fits in with Washington's
long term plan and groundwork already laid. They have already
found out they can get away with about anything in Nevada,
Montana, Utah, Wyoming, Colorado, North Dakota.
The military is disappointing. All that bluster has drawn us
into a false sense of security. At least, that is what I am picking
up. I am hearing the military will consent to a socialist junta
so long as it is placated. This is exactly how it goes in the
developing world.
Obama can promise anyone anything at this point, and they
will believe him. I am hearing Washington is basically behind Obama
all the way, because he means more for Washington.
As has been mentioned here, the preemptive violent solution to the grazing
issue has to mean something. There are only two groups that I can see
fitting the mold. Big city Democratic Machine, i.e. Chicago and Boston,
and Jesuit related, i.e., communist, Nazi, 60's underground, your basic
Che Guevara idealists.
I am also hearing the Democrats, who should be elated, are losing
confidence. Democrats are being required to consent to a certain
association or affiliation, quite leftist. Many of them are getting off.
No one knows where those folks will land.

I'd say go with your gut and ignore the pessimists, the Marxist movement is over, the Dims support/base has abandoned them over the lies and failed promises.
Come Nov you'll see that all these fears were just people venting, because they don't pay close attention to the panic in the Dim party.
If all I knew came from network TV, then I too would think the sky was falling and the end was near.
Difference being, no one here pays any mind to the Marxists, we have our fingers on the pulse of America, and can't wait for Nov.
If you think a handful on the right is scared, put yourself in a libs shoes, they're freakin out. :biggrin:
Not everyone shares your optimism, Solar. Here are a couple of

Here is an excerpt from Mary Ruwart's book, Chapter 19. Not exactly
a "sky is falling" pessimist. Background is Communism's Ten Steps.
------------------From "Healing" by Mary Ruart---------------------
A little bit of communism is like a little bit of disease. Mixing aggression with non aggression isn't a happy medium; it's the beginning of societal ill health in more ways than one. As the United States embraced aggression, it started down the path to communism as well. The architects of communism knew this well. In 1847, Marx and Engels proposed ten steps to convert the Western nations to Communist countries without firing a shot. (18) Most of these ideas have been successfully implemented in our own country with little, if any, resistance!
Is It Happening Here?
One of the ten steps called for "centralization of credit in the hands of the state, by means of a national bank with state capital and an exclusive monopoly"just like our own Federal Reserve! As described in Chapter 9, a central bank transfers the wealth of the average person to the well-to-do through inflation. Communism, like all aggression-through-government, is a tool of the rich. The next chapter explains how domestic aggression in the U. S. banking industry created our need for national defense by helping to establish the Communist threat overseas.
Another of the ten steps called for instituting "a heavy progressive or graduated income tax"just like our own federal income tax! The next chapter (National Defense) shows how the aggression of income taxes, when combined with the aggression of central banking, foments war throughout the world.
Another step proposed by Marx and Engels was "abolition of all right of inheritance," which we come ever closer to as inheritance taxes increase. Taking wealth at gunpoint, if necessary that one person has created and given to another person is theft. Whether the wealth creator is alive or dead, the act and the impact are the same.
Another step was "free education for all children in public schools." Although our country still has many private schools in addition to the public ones, the content of both is dictated by aggression- through- government, to teach aggression.
Marx and Engels also recommended the "extension of factories and instruments of production owned by the state." In the past century, more and more services have become exclusive, subsidized government monopolies (e.g., garbage collection, water distribution, mass transit, etc.). As a result, we pay twice as much for lower quality service!
Marx also called for the "centralization of the means of communications and transport in the hands of the state." Television and radio stations are licensed by the Federal Communications Commission. A station that does not pursue programming considered "in the public interest" is stopped at gunpoint, if necessary from further broadcast. In earlier chapters, we saw that licensing increased the cost of doing business, so that only the advantaged could obtain permission to create wealth in regulated professions. Not surprisingly, three-fourths of the stock of the three major television networks is controlled by a few large banks. Radio stations have an elite ownership as well. (19) Those who benefit from aggression- through- government have little incentive to tell the public that licensing is a tool of the rich!
The Interstate Commerce Commission regulates the licensing of truckers. Minorities are effectively excluded from the lucrative trucking business by the expense of obtaining one of a limited number of licenses. (20) The rich get richer.
Another of the ten steps calls for "confiscation of the property of all emigrants and rebels." As we learned in Chapter 15, our law enforcement agents can seize the wealth of anyone suspected of drug crimes without a trial! For many years, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has also been seizing the assets of taxpayers without a trial if the IRS thinks they might have underpaid their taxes! (21) The wealth we have created can be taken from us at gunpoint, if necessary without a formal accusation or a chance to defend ourselves! Truly, we can no longer claim to be a free country. We have entrapped ourselves with aggression-through-government.
In addition, Marx and Engels called for "abolition of property in land and application of all rents of land to public purposes." In other words, land would not be privately owned. No homesteading would be permitted.
Our federal and local governments have title to 42% of the land mass of the United States. (22) Most of the remaining land is under government control as well. For example, today's homeowners can pay off their mortgages, but must still pay property taxes to the local government. If they stop payments, their property is taken from them. They are, in essence, renting their home from the local government. An owner can eventually pay off a mortgage and not have to make monthly payments; a renter must continue payments or be evicted.
When campaigning for the Kalamazoo City Commission in 1983, I met many older people who were moving from their homes because the property taxes were higher than their mortgage payments had been. Even though many of these people "owned" their homes "free and clear," they couldn't afford the escalating property taxes on a retiree's income! Having worked all their lives to pay off their homes, they found they could no longer keep them!
Even if these individuals had been able to afford to pay the "rent" of property taxes, some of them faced another threat. The city of Kalamazoo was considering an ambitious consolidation of the railway system. Businesses and residences that occupied an area proposed for development were targets for "eminent domain." Governments frequently evict at gunpoint, if necessary individuals from properties they "own" if the proposed project is considered for "the common good." Owners can do what they please with their property; renters hold it subject to the consent of their landlords. Eminent domain and property taxes have made a mockery of the American dream of home ownership. Individuals do not truly "own" their own property!
Eight of the ten steps designed to convert industrialized nations to communism have already been substantially implemented in our country! We have let communism in the back door because it wears the familiar face of our neighbors and ourselves!
We've spent a lot of time, money, and effort fighting communism throughout the world because we didn't want it infesting our way of life. We didn't want someone to dictate to us how we were to live our lives. In trying to dictate to others, however, we walk the road toward communism of our own volition! Instead of being dominated by Soviet Communists, we dominate our neighbors and they dominate us! The real Communist threat begins with our belief that aggression serves us. It starts in our own minds and hearts.
Our missiles and bombs cannot save us if we refuse to honor our neighbor's choice. In the following chapter, we'll see how our aggression ripples outward to create enemies abroad.

It has absolutely nothing to do with optimism, you'll see what I mean come Nov, assuming Hussein doesn't declare Martial law.
So - do the Dims regret they made that corrupt A-Hole, Senate majority leader. If it didn't make them look weak, I'd bet they'd like to get rid of him.
