our intelligence services have been warning that they've been busy working on just that. Gee, we're in the run-up to the election. Could what's happening qualify? Is this chaos big, and unprecedented, enough? Is the weaponizing and takeover of the protests of police murder blatant enough?

And during all those secret phone calls with the asset Putin helped place in the oval office, has an agitated Trump by any chance been seeking instruction and reassurance on his reelection? He asks everyone else for input, if not instruction.

MSNBC's reporting there's been a lot of discussion in the WH about what Trump should do. Of course that collection of incompetents doesn't know.

And he told -45 to let Erik Prince do his thing with his gang of thugs. I suspect they are the organization hub for the terrorists. We have to be vigilant and avoid violence and record those creating it.
