gofund.me/7a78eafa Met him in 05 when I rejoined the Army. I was his boss. He insisted on being friends. Then I went to his wedding and met his wife's sister. Then we became brothers-in-law. Finally he became my kids Godfather. Damn it, he deserved better.

@BrandonStraka At some point, there's going to be a significant, well-organized ANTIFA assault on federal or state law enforcement using deadly force - likely involving firearms. The media will brush it off as an outlier and tell the public it was just a few criminals.

Violating the civil rights of Christians gets you a standing ovation from Hollywood elites Tells you everything

@Rightanglenews Using kids as human shield, agents of chaos, political pros etc... Yeah, that's the essence of cowardice and the culture of evil

BREAKING - A disturbing new trend is emerging across the country, showing leftist teachers guiding very young children, some no older than kindergarteners, in protests against ICE and President Trump.

@Rightanglenews This reminds me of Mao’s Cultural Revolution which propagandized entire generation and turned them to be Red Guards! His goal was to purge his political enemies and grab power. Remember when the kindergarteners were told to chat “I love Obama”.

@mpls_spring Ah. So not letting in undesirable, potentially harmful people without vetting. It must be exhausting being such hypocrites

Antifa communists are setting up borders and doing border security to protest borders and border security.

Let's talk about the opening part of this statement: "nobody is illegal on stolen land." We can break it down, but we should also know what it is. What we are looking at is Chinese-style political sloganeering called "tifa" (提法). Communist communications ever since Mao took over China (and the CCP before that) almost always follow this kind of formulation, called 提法 (tífǎ), which literally translates as "watchwords" or "slogans." Literally, it means to lift up or present or highlight the core message or political principle in play through a charged slogan. The purpose of the sloganeering is actually to do a kind of political engineering through carefully selected and weaponized words that are easily memorable and that hijack the critical thinking faculties of the people who both hear and repeat them so they'll advance the Party line. You can think of tifa quite literally as a form of "discourse engineering" with the intent of doing political engineering or political warfare more or less by hijacking people's brains through mystifying slogans. (Mystification is like a more powerful form of confusion, akin to having been put under a spell.) In his amazing analysis of the CCP in the early 1950s, just after Mao took power (in October 1949), psychologist Robert Jay Lifton referred to what amounts to tifa as "thought-terminating clichés." That is, they're slogans (or clichés) that have the power to turn off your ability to think clearly about what's being said and implied and to just go along with the political messaging rather than to question it. The mechanisms of these political warfare tools are mystification and rhetorical entrapment. Mystification is overriding critical thinking with carefully constructed falsehoods and framing. Rhetorical entrapment occurs when there's no easy way to disagree with the framing (think, "black lives matter" or "Christ is king" (as the Groypers use it), both of which are examples of tifa). The mystification part is a process of using carefully constructed falsehoods presented as truisms that undermine the critical thinking process. That is, the statements can be seen as "obviously" true in a particular way that disguises how they are false in another way. For example, black lives obviously matter, but supporting the organization is something people should not do. The statement "nobody is illegal on stolen land" is very sophisticated as tifa because it contains three mystifications in just six words: 1) "Nobody is illegal" confuses the distinction between being a human being of basic human dignity and being a citizen of a country or legal visitor there; 2) "Stolen land" confuses the legitimacy of the country in question; 3) The idea of being able to be legal or illegal if the country itself is not legal because it is "stolen land." This is distinct from the idea of the land itself being stolen because it conceptually bridges the concept of legality and legitimacy of the country. As you can tell, breaking down and explaining the failures of all three parts of this mystification (demystification) is both challenging and exhausting, and it takes so much space that most people will not engage with it due to its length (which will be three orders of magnitude greater (5000-6000 words) than the tifa itself (6 words) to explicate fully and two orders of magnitude greater (600-800 words) just to barely articulate). Raise these by another order of magnitude of effort or two for the argument that will follow the attempt to demystify. The point is that to fully engage a six-word tifa through explanation, discussion, and argument to try to break someone free of it might take 50-100 thousand words worth of effort by the time all is said and done. (Another example: "trans women are women"; look how much effort that one has taken!) This example of tifa also contains two rhetorical traps that derive from the first two mystifications: A) It dares critics to say that people themselves are illegal (illegitimate) because of a political circumstance, thus replacing a legalistic fact with a moral assertion, one that is difficult to litigate without considerable expertise and that might still lose on emotional appeal ("empathy"); B) It lures critics into litigating the legality of the establishment of the nation in question, which undermines the justified presumption of authority in the national concept. These rhetorical traps not only put critics in a bad, weak, and likely losing position from the start, but they also invite adopting a reactionary or chauvinistic stance as the only possible reply (e.g., "we aren't colonizers; we're conquerors" or "illegals are illegitimate"). This feeds the strategic principle of "your target's reaction is your real action" upon which these manipulative movements gain the most ground. In short, tifa like this hijacks the capacity to understand the situation correctly in a succinct, repeatable phrase even Billie Eilish can repeat in about a second and a half (confuses and mystifies) while arranging a sophisticated psychological and public opinion trap that is mostly lose-lose-lose for those who would object. Notice that through the application of tifa as a form of political warfare (public opinion warfare, specifically), any idiot (including the average Billie Eilish fan) can ensnare any good-faith actor in this very sophisticated political warfare device even without understanding in the slightest how it works, dragging them into either confusion or arguments meant to be fought on losing ground for the good-faith critic. You don't need a sophisticated political warfare operator to make this happen. Furthermore, notice that any idiot who falls for the tifa here will actually repeat it, making the slogan campaign viral so that it is mostly being fought out not by experts but by masses of laypeople who know there's a fight but who aren't properly equipped to deal with it. This is why it is an example of "public opinion warfare" as one of the CCP's "three warfares" doctrine styles. As summarized by the RAND Corporation: "Tifa have four identifying characteristics: (1) They are politically laden and stated verbatim, (2) they extend along a clear line of authority, (3) they are distributed to official party organs, and (4) they characterize or resolve a dialectical contradiction between competing ideas in the CCP." Engaging with this kind of slogan, as we must, brings critics into a "dialectical space" that's roughly on the level of the average idiot who can argue emotively or even just repeat the slogan as a kind of verbal cudgel (for those watching) rather than genuinely engaging. We might call this the "Reeeeee! Effect," and we all know it works very well. Tifa creates the "Reeeeee! Effect." Since the late 1960s, almost all "New Leftist" activism in the West runs on a Maoist-Marxist engine, including the heavy use of tifa sloganeering as a form of rhetorical and political warfare. Most of what we engage in today with their B.S. rhetoric is tifa. So these "thought-terminating clichés" (tifa) are very powerful and sophisticated political warfare tools that we all encounter every day. The only way to beat them is to identify them for the manipulations they are and explain them as best we can so that people are more likely to identify them and less likely to fall for them, and also to help people out of the ones they're already caught in and under the spell of.

There are liberals who are going to go to a "Nobody is above the law" protest tonight, and then tomorrow they will go to a "Protect people that are breaking the law" protest, and after that they will head over to the "ICE needs to show their identity protest" and then end the day with a "Showing your identity to vote is voter suppression and racist" protest". It must be so exhausting being a liberal.

Friendly reminder that hiding behind children at a kinetic engagement is a tactic long used by terrorist organizations like Hamas, AQ, and ISIS. Lefties show who their role models are every single day.

I see that the Libs are discovering that over half of U.S. Border Patrol agents are Hispanic. Just wait until they find out that roughly one-third of ICE agents are also Hispanic.

@reidhoffman Epstein hounded me relentlessly to go to his pedo island and I always declined. Not you though. You actually went. What “gifts” did you bring to Epstein when you went to pedo island?

@ResisttheMS In a world of Who-the-fuck-cares, this is something I deeply, deeply don't give a flying fuck about

WATCH: Justin and Hailey Bieber wore "ICE OUT" pins at the Grammy Awards.

@QueenKriss_2 @drjones96 @JesseRodriguez @gtconway3d I watched the videos. I understand the law. Apparently you do not.

@xrangerd @drjones96 @JesseRodriguez @gtconway3d Vous voyez les vidéos, et vous continuez à croire vos mensonges ?

Renée Nicole Good and Alex Jeffrey Pretti, both 37-year-old American citizens, both shot and killed by federal agents in Minneapolis

@drjones96 @JesseRodriguez @gtconway3d A. Justifiable self defense B. Justifiable self defense Hope that clears things up for you

@JesseRodriguez @gtconway3d Neither were criminals. Neither were illegal immigrants. Someone tell me what the ICE is even doing in either situation where these people were killed.

@blizmo2 @JesseRodriguez Hint: every time you try to run over a police officer you will be subject to the use of deadly force Bonus: every time you make statements about harming police officers then intentionally physically obstruct an officer while armed you will be subject to the use of deadly force

@JesseRodriguez Both unarmed & surrounded ICE murdered both of them Our country has lost its way

@USMCwizard @JesseRodriguez 🍼

@JesseRodriguez Fixed it for you, with all due respect: Renée Nicole Good and Alex Jeffrey Pretti, both 37-year-old American citizens, both MURDERED by federal agents in Minneapolis.

@JesseRodriguez @emeriticus Both in the wrong #WinStupidPrizes

@AttorneyCrump Fuck you. We know what happened. He chose his own prize

Keith Porter Jr. was a father of two, a son, and a brother whose life was stolen by an off-duty ICE agent. His family gathered in grief demanding the truth. We will continue to stand with Keith Porter Jr.’s family until there is justice, transparency, and answers.

Are we really doing this again? He was firing celebratory gunshots into the air with an AR-15-style rifle in a residential complex. An off-duty ICE agent who lived there heard the shots, reasonably believed it was an active shooter, confronted him, identified himself as law enforcement, and ordered him to drop the weapon. Porter didn’t comply. Authorities say he fired three rounds at the agent, and only then did the agent return fire. Enough with the excuses. Enough with the victim-blaming. Take fucking accountability for once in your lives. This has nothing to do with race. This is about a grown man recklessly endangering everyone around him and forcing a deadly confrontation. Miss me with the bullshit! WE ARE TIRED!

@nicksortor @KathrynHanson Federal obstruction charge plus whatever else they can tack on. #WinStupidPrizes

🚨 JUST IN: ICE RIPPED a woman from her car in Minneapolis after she BLOCKED them from driving down the road She then begs and pleads for mercy. NOPE! You f***ed around, and now you’re finding out! 😆
