A short story of true fact:
I alluded to this story in a post some months ago. I thought for general interest I would flesh it out a bit.
For many years I had this couple as patients. She is now the sole survivor and is now rudderless because he died I believe about three years ago. He had served in the United States Army and had reached a very high rank and was in fact commander of a base, which one I will not say because I want to preserve anonymity of the individuals about whom I am writing. To say that he was a militant right winger is a gross understatement and she was a devout follower of Rush Limbaugh, But she had to keep it quiet because her husband felt that Limbaugh was too moderate. You are probably beginning to get the idea.
Now the reason, the REASON, i’m telling the story now will become apparent in a few sentences. When the husband died of cancer, one of the promises the wife made to him was that she would carry on the battle for this heart and soul of America. Of course, I have no idea what this really means to these people, but a very interesting thing occurred in December. I saw the widow in my office for a routine check up and she asked me if I would like to join her for a ride down to Washington on January 6. Now for many years before she was married to this gentleman, who by the way was living at his base very far away, she used to stalk me and follow me around Center city Philadelphia . If I went to four stores I would “Run into her” in two of them at least. In all fairness to her she did stop this behavior when I got married in the late 80s but she was one of those women who when she talks to you stares into your eyes and does not blink. The word for my reaction to her behaviors in those days was “disconcerting” and I felt I needed to wash my hands and face after an interaction with her.
Of course, I said no thank you to her invitation, and she said to me, and I am nearly quoting her verbatim but not quite, that “there is going to be a revolution in this country and the first shots are going to be fired on that day. I don’t want to go alone because I am afraid that the people who are putting Biden in the office i’m going to kidnap us and kill us in the same way that the people who were in the real plane that was hidden before the missile that was supposed to be the plane hit the Pentagon were exterminated.“
I’m pretty good at dealing with lunacy, I have to do it at least once or twice a day in my job, and so I affirmed her stance, nodded my head and said unfortunately I will have to be working that day and I am already booked. Actually that was a lie, I am off on Wednesdays and was therefore able to watch it all happened live on television safely ensconced in my home. After the incident, when I saw her next, she said I didn’t go but I wish I had because if they were more of Us there, we would have taken the capital and held it until the election was reversed. (For some reason she always thought that I was a fellow traveler)
I said to her at that time, I don’t know what to say to you…. I really find it uncomfortable participating in seditious takeover‘s of the federal government. I really think you need to separate yourself from these beliefs that you have adopted and consider that the only plot ongoing is the plot of your favorite soon to be ex president Donald Trump to become President-for-life. She did not take this very well as you can imagine but she literally petted my face and said I feel so sorry if someone like you has been taken in and I hope you eventually see the truth and the light.
Jesus H Christ….
I have since seen her, and she does not mention in the conversation or that day but I am certain that she possesses the same beliefs. My point of relating this is that there were people around and many of them felt that they were on a holy mission to seize the government. This woman was aware of the timing, the purpose, and the tactics well before the event occurred. I don’t know what kind of connections she has to any inner circle, it is quite possible that she does given the rank of her now deceased husband, but I will tell you that if the vast number of people Who populate Democratic Underground met her, say at the grocery store, and just had a casual conversation about the price of lettuce or whatever, you would find her interesting, bright, attractive, friendly, engaging, and alert to her surroundings. She dresses impeccably makes up her face and has her hair done most appropriately, wears clothes befitting a woman of her age and station, But the inability of her mind to divorce herself from these unrealities and the difference and respect she has for this miscreant who used to be president is staggering in context with everything else. It just goes to show that something was being planned, many people knew in advance, and they in fact walk among us unscathed.
