“We are headed into a new phase of American domestic violent extremism...I really feel strongly that we are headed into insurgency...a continuous long-term political terrorist & paramilitary effort to discredit the current govt & push forward an alternative govt”
@MalcolmNance

“...towards November they became the paramilitary of the Trump campaign & when Trump said this thing was stolen, they, along with the Republican base, moved & took action to essentially destroy democracy.”
@MalcolmNance

“They are now consumed with having Donald Trump as their tribal leader...by the end of the year QAnon & Trumpism will completely consume this party.”

1. If Malcolm is saying it, you can take it to the bank. Sadly.

3. Thanks to the news media initially for promoting Trump, and then RW Media...

They have used the freedom of speech to allow a demagogue to attempt to destroy this country.

4. We could be looking at a situation like Northern Ireland in the 70s-80s.

I hope not - Nance tends to be something of a doomsayer - but there are enough of those nutballs out there to cause at least intermittent disruptions or worse. The IRA did get Lord Mountbatten, after alll.

6. "The Troubles" in Ireland lasted 30 years.

10. The same Mountbatten that let Partition Day violence happen in India in 1947.

That’s one the IRA got that I’ll never cry over.

11. Three innocent people were killed on that boat as well.

Mountbatten wasn't exactly a great guy, but in the process of assassinating him the IRA also murdered two young boys and an elderly woman. The MAGAts could end up killing as the IRA did, targeting high-profile people and not caring about any "collateral damage."

[roamer65]

12. That is true.

The MAGAts won’t care.

...and neither will I when they are executed for their crimes.

5. Possibly but

I think if the DOJ and FBI really put the hammer down on these assholes that many will decide it’s not worth it to fight the government. I still hold that the vast majority are cowards.

8. What you said

Once they see their cohorts disappearing into the prison system, they will lose their taste for insurrection.

[roamer65]

7. It isn't anything that a few televised executions wouldn't solve.

If you kill or maim people in the name of DOMESTIC TERRORISM, you deserve it.

9. Why is Nance not in the DOJ

Or FBI where he belongs????!!!!

13. The ReThugs think these various Fascist white supremacist groups are their winning ticket to ,...

.... win all future elections. They only care about the here and now and their elections. But if they do not totally disavow these fascists racists it will destroy the entire ReThug Party if it does not tear and shred our very Democracy first.
