Simmering Threats of Violence Dominate GOP Circles Over FBI Mar-a-Lago ‘Raid’


Right-wing agitators with millions of followers have long insisted the time will soon arrive when violence will not only be necessary, but also be one’s patriotic duty in order to “save the republic.”  The FBI’s search at Mar-a-Lago for classified documents is now presented as that tipping point, an existential threat to the United States that true patriots must thwart and prepare for “civil war.”  Meanwhile, folks like Representatives Marjorie Taylor Greene and Matt Gaetz are calling for defunding the FBI, while one Florida legislator is demanding Florida law enforcement immediately arrest any FBI personnel within the state, and sever all ties with Federal law enforcement agencies.

Of course, and to no one’s surprise, Donald Trump is claiming “nothing like this ever happened to another ex-president before,” which is basically true, but that’s only because nothing like a “President Donald Trump” has ever happened to America before.  I mean, how dare these law enforcement agencies try and do their job, which is to enforce our laws!


I also find it hilarious listening to Trump whine about how this was a completely “unannounced raid.”  No kidding?  What did he expect, the FBI to call up and ask “Is this a convenient time for us to drop by?  We’d hate to impose.”  Besides, what’s he complaining about, anyway?  He’s already started fundraising off this.  Why, Trump ought to send Merrick Garland a nice “thank you note” if you ask me.


Meanwhile, MAGAs are claiming this is all so unfair to President Trump, and don’t understand why the FBI just doesn't watch Fox News or Newsmax - rather than doing their job.  That way, they’d understand that when Trump accuses someone else of doing something HE actually did, authorities are supposed to go after whomever Trump is “accusing” of doing the crime, NOT HIM!  It’s all so simple - if you just stick with the program.


Anyway, thanks to rightist media provocateurs, and opportunistic politicians like Ron DeSantis, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Matt Gaetz, and Rick Scott fanning the flames, folks who've made bad decisions all their lives will soon be heading off to war for a man who couldn’t care less about them.  Time to squeeze that big belly into that tactical gear you picked up at the Army & Navy Surplus, and wave that AR-15 around like a tough guy.


You see, Trump was running the same criminal enterprise out of the White House that he's now running out of Mar-a-Lago.  Therefore, until he’s sitting in jail, America has to be considered an “active crime scene.”  This was all very fine until the FBI moved in, and now Republicans are quite rattled.  So much so, that some are even considering asking Colin Kaepernick to take a knee, and pray for Donald Trump.

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War:  In a fiery speech, arguing that impeachment would disenfranchise Donald Trump’s supporters, defense lawyer David Schoen is being harshly criticized for his thinly veiled threat - warning that impeaching the former president could very well result in even more violence from Donald Trump’s easily enraged base. So, if I understand Schoen’s argument correctly, it sounds as if he’s implying that “if you bring Trump to trial, then that angry, violent mob who attacked the Capitol, wanting to hang Vice President Pence and kill various members of Congress, might get really, really mad again - and there will be reprisals.”   You know, we’re talking stuff like ”Nice country you have here - be a damn shame if something were to happen to it!”  In other words, Schoen’s trying to incite violence, in defense of a man who’s facing trial - over inciting violence.  They don’t teach you that in law school.   Now, is it jus...

Scientists Monitoring Near-Earth Asteroid 99942 Apophis

Scientists Monitoring Near-Earth Asteroid 99942 Apophis:   Scientists meeting this week at the 2019 Planetary Defense Conference, say they’re monitoring the 99942 Apophis asteroid which will be coming within 20,000 miles (33,000 kilometers) of the Earth’s surface in just 10 years.  The thing is, by the year 2029, Trump will likely be settling into his 4th term - so if an asteroid suddenly threatens to destroy the Earth, my guess is that after 16 years of Trump, no one will really much care. https://www.johnnyrobishcomedy.com  Oldest Human Footprint Found in the Americas Confirmed in Chile:   Researchers say a 15,600-year old footprint discovered by a student in southern Chile is believed to be the oldest human footprint ever found in the Americas.  Oddly enough, scientists say the footprint appears to be that of someone wearing size 12 Bruno Magli shoes, but because it’s from well over 15K years ago - they’re rather doubtful it has any connection to t...

Trump Returns to Do White House Coronavirus Briefings Solo

Trump Returns to Do White House Coronavirus Briefings Solo:  Three months after he abandoned the daily virus briefings and attempted to turn the country’s attention to what he described as the “great American comeback,” President Trump took the lectern in the White House briefing room alone on Tuesday, free to say whatever he wanted without any distractions from the usual bunch “sciencey nerds” behind him. And, in a rare moment of candor, Trump reluctantly admitted that the spread of the coronavirus will likely get worse before it gets better, and that people should probably wear masks.  Well said Mr President!  The fact is, most of us are already rather optimistic things will begin to get better - sometime after November 3rd. Ironically, now that Trump is finally admitting the virus is spreading fast and that people should wear masks, you’d think most of those armed militia thugs, whom Trump egged on to to out and “liberate” those Democratic run states from t...
