<p>Now, ask yourself, are we playing right into Trump&#8217;s hands?  Will he, at some point in the not too distant future, utilize the Insurrection Act to do what he has wanted to do for so long?  Shoot and jail protesters who don&#8217;t agree with him and his Shadow Army?  Is this what the camps are for? Is this the perfect set up for Project 2025 agenda?</p>
<p>First, let&#8217;s delve into the definition and the law.</p>
<blockquote><p>An <b>insurrection</b> is an uprising to change the government.<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rebellion#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> If a government does not recognize rebels as <a title="Belligerent" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belligerent">belligerents</a>, then they are insurgents and the revolt is an <a title="Insurgency" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insurgency">insurgency</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rebellion#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In a larger conflict, the rebels may be recognized as belligerents without their government being recognized by the established government, in which case the conflict becomes a <a title="Civil war" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civil_war">civil war</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rebellion#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>a<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a> &#8211; Wikipedia</sup></p></blockquote>
<p>Now, here&#8217;s the bludgeon of a law:</p>
<blockquote><p>The <b>Insurrection Act of 1807</b> is a <a class="mw-redirect" title="" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_federal_law">United States federal law</a><sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insurrection_Act_of_1807#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> that empowers the <a title="President of the United States" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/President_of_the_United_States">president of the United States</a> to deploy the <a title="United States Armed Forces" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Armed_Forces">U.S. military</a> and federalized <a class="mw-redirect" title="United States National Guard" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_National_Guard">National Guard</a> troops within the <a title="United States" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States">United States</a> in particular circumstances, such as to suppress <a title="Civil disorder" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civil_disorder">civil disorder</a>, <a class="mw-redirect" title="Insurrection" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insurrection">insurrection</a>, or <a title="Rebellion" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rebellion">rebellion</a>.</p>
<p>The act provides a &#8220;statutory exception&#8221; to the <a title="Posse Comitatus Act" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posse_Comitatus_Act">Posse Comitatus Act</a> of 1878, which limits the use of military personnel under federal command for law enforcement purposes within the United States.<sup id="cite_ref-:2_2-0" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insurrection_Act_of_1807#cite_note-:2-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insurrection_Act_of_1807#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p>
<p>Before invoking the powers under the act, <a title="Title 10 of the United States Code" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Title_10_of_the_United_States_Code">10 U.S.C.</a> <a class="external text" href="https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/10/254" rel="nofollow">§ 254</a> requires the President to publish a <a class="mw-redirect" title="Presidential proclamation (United States)" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presidential_proclamation_(United_States)">proclamation</a> ordering the insurgents to disperse. As part of the Posse Comitatus Act, these provisions have since been amended.</p>
<p>There are exceptions rooted in the president&#8217;s own constitutional authority. Defense Department guidelines describe &#8220;homeland defense&#8221; as a &#8220;constitutional exception&#8221; to <a class="mw-redirect" title="Posse Comitatus" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posse_Comitatus">Posse Comitatus</a> restrictions, meaning that measures necessary to protect national security from external threats are not subject to the same limitations. &#8211; Wikipedia</p></blockquote>
<p>(Starting to see why Trump wants to take down Wikipedia?  Donate if you can)</p>
<p>Now, watch this important video:</p>
<iframe  style="display: block; margin: 0px auto;"  id="_ytid_31811"  width="1170" height="658"  data-origwidth="1170" data-origheight="658" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/cSjR6sp1rAA?enablejsapi=1&autoplay=0&cc_load_policy=0&cc_lang_pref=&iv_load_policy=1&loop=0&rel=1&fs=1&playsinline=0&autohide=2&theme=dark&color=red&controls=0&disablekb=0&" class="__youtube_prefs__  no-lazyload" title="YouTube player"  allow="fullscreen; accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen data-no-lazy="1" data-skipgform_ajax_framebjll=""></iframe>
<p>Will Trump use the events We, The People are creating in order to do what he has wanted for so long?  Shoot protesters in the legs?  Take away rights and property?  End Birthright Citizenship?</p>
<p>These remain open questions.  Below from MS Copilot:</p>
<blockquote><p>The Insurrection Act can be invoked at any time when the president determines that law enforcement is unable to maintain order or enforce laws effectively. There isn&#8217;t a specific waiting period required before invoking the act; however, the decision to use it must be justified by the circumstances, such as rebellion, insurrection, or civil unrest<span class="mx-0.5 inline-block h-5 w-4 pb-1 align-middle" data-copy="false"><button id=":r2h:" type="button" aria-expanded="false" aria-controls=":r2g:" aria-label="Citation 2">2</button></span>.</p></blockquote>
<p>We&#8217;ve already seen and heard claims of violence and lawlessness.  False claims.  False flags.  Now, watch this great piece of undercover reporting presented by Democracy Now.</p>
<iframe  style="display: block; margin: 0px auto;"  id="_ytid_44896"  width="1170" height="658"  data-origwidth="1170" data-origheight="658" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/UQjdwsZhE_Q?enablejsapi=1&autoplay=0&cc_load_policy=0&cc_lang_pref=&iv_load_policy=1&loop=0&rel=1&fs=1&playsinline=0&autohide=2&theme=dark&color=red&controls=0&disablekb=0&" class="__youtube_prefs__  no-lazyload" title="YouTube player"  allow="fullscreen; accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen data-no-lazy="1" data-skipgform_ajax_framebjll=""></iframe>
<p>It may be that We, The People, will have to come up with other ways of making our force and displeasure known.  A National Sick Out?  Economic Boycotts?  These have already been tried with varying degrees of visibility and success.  Tax revolt?  Most of us don&#8217;t make or pay enough for this to be effective or even felt.</p>
<p>One thing is certain, removing Trump from office could end up being the wrong strategy.  Not with JD waiting in the wings.  He is already the sock puppet of Project 2025.</p>
<p>Leave comments and ideas on the facebook page and please share.  Good ideas and comments will be shared further.  Comments by Red Hats and Quislings will be torched.  We can&#8217;t fuck this up.</p>
