Toward the end, Mike's video claims there is undeniable proof of China's involvement in hijacking the 2020 election and shows some evidence.
If that is what occurred then I hate to say it, frens, but it seems that GEOTUS let us down BIG TIME. As the sitting Commander-in-Chief, he should have pulled out all the stops and fought for us and our country with everything he's got.
Instead? We got a Trump rally pep talk on the 6th with, contrary to what he said in his lead up, NOT A SINGLE shred of new evidence presented.
-
Sure, GEOTUS was stabbed in the back by Pence's decision...
-
Sure, Wood/Powell/Giuliani/etal were trying to get the word out in the courts...
-
Sure, the MSM was working overtime to discredit and obfuscate at every turn...
-
etc etc
but IMO that does not excuse a clear abdication of his duties.
In my view, stealing the election was the ultimate manifestation of The Swamp. And rather than rise to the occasion and use every power within his authority as our President, he relied on "third party" supporters to carry the baton for him. Other times the kitchen got hot, he likewise deferred, saying he'd rather, "Not get involved..."
Sorry frens, for the slight damper on our "rally". But I had to get that off my chest.
The need to MAGA just got 100x taller!
Peak.
Clown.
World.
Even in their own warped reality.
Truth over facts.
Does that not bother anyone else?
Rather than tie himself to the mast and say, "We must win the Whitehouse at all costs!" Pence instead sat back and contemplated what he felt the proper role is for the VP in this situation. And, right or wrong, that led him to form his own conclusion. And, unfortunately, that led him to believe that Trump was expendable to that goal. "If my answer leads me to support Trump, then great. But if it doesn't, then that's fine too. At least I stood up for what I felt was right."
And this, to me, is the weird irony of the matter. By standing up for individuality and grit, we may "think too much of ourselves" and, by extension, miss the forest for the trees. Because unfortunately, that is NOT how we win in the political sphere. What wins there is quite literally strength in numbers. And in order to achieve that, it almost demands a sort of "individual comes second" mentality so that everyone's chief aim can be set to, "Win at all costs!"
Does that make it right? Or wrong? I don't know... I'm just trying to shed some light on the lay of the land and give some perspective as to why we constantly find ourselves in these losing situations. And it may help explain why liberalism always seems to be the path that is eventually followed in this country. Because conservative America hasn't realized that we're trying to win in a context that has absolutely no bearing to the fight at hand.
Time and time again we spend our time and energy pointing out their hypocrisies.
- "Where were they when BLM was literally burning and ransacking our streets!?!?!?!"
- "No one cried foul when Antifa took over THIS capitol building!!!"
- etc etc
These posts are 100% correct to point out the blatant double standard.
And yet. And yet.
To rely on this as some sort of "proof" is to miss the point entirely.
For the left it has never been about honesty or fairness or decency. All of these things are a means to an end.
If the actions support the same end, then the actions themselves are deemed acceptable.
If the actions are an attempt to support another purpose (like MAGA, etc), then the actions themselves are deemed reprehensible and worthy of the strongest punishment.
This complete lack of standards is very hard for conservatives to comprehend. I admit it took me a while to be able to see it and accept it for what it is. Because it doesn't make sense. It is not rational.
But you know what it is?
Effective.
And the longer we keep trying to "reason" and "equate" and "measure" and "compare" our movement to theirs, I fear we will continue to miss the plot and continue to lose at every turn.
"Don't worry, the truth will win!" and similar cries, while well meaning, are also beset by this same false standard.
Yes, truth wins when we're talking about matters of judgment and equivalency. But again, that is NOT what we are up against here.
The quicker we learn that and get it through our thick skulls, the quicker we are able to understand the war that we are really in.
EDIT: And IMO we saw this firsthand with Pence. Rather than tie himself to the mast and say, "We must win the Whitehouse at all costs!" he instead sat back and contemplated what he felt the proper role is for the VP in this situation. And, right or wrong, that led him to form his own conclusion. And, unfortunately, that led him to believe that Trump was expendable to that goal. "If my answer leads me to support Trump, then great. But if it doesn't, then that's fine too. At least I stood up for what I felt was right."

The states should not have the authority to freely certify the results of an improperly handled election process. No signature checks? No <xyz>?
Then yes, VP has every obligation to at the very least demand they first complete a "by the book" lawful count of the votes.
If the 6th works...
If showing up in large numbers is enough to sway and influence the political elites...
If exercising a "quiet and implied" threat of an armed uprising gets the gov't establishment to change course...
What then?
We need to understand there is a very real possibility then, that the other side picks up and starts wielding that very same tool.
"Oh, so peaceful protest is back on the menu to catch the attention of the Pelosi's and Schumer's? Well, let's just kick that up a notch, shall we?"
Because while we correctly lament that "the system" has failed us, guess what? It hasn't failed the other side. Actually, to the contrary, it's served its purpose exceedingly well thusfar! And that's the hard part. Paying off people to burn, loot, and murder? Pah, that's the easy stuff.
EDIT: So if the 6th works, it may very well only serve to underscore that civil society does NOT work. And that's scary as hell, IMO. Because what might fill its space?
Now, don't mistake my intentions here.
I only say this to underscore the need for GEOTUS to act. If he truly believes the election was stolen, then his admin needs to put up or shut up. Because without that, I fear honest and well intentioned citizens could be drawn into a situation that is quite literally beyond their control.
And meanwhile, the corrupt political elites are all too ready and willing to wash their hands of the mess and say, "Meh, it was their choice to do <xyz>. Go back and check the tapes, we never asked for it. Sure, we may have put out some vague and nondescript posts here and there, but it's not our fault how those were interpreted. They brought it on themselves..."
And so the military "stands down" just like the police did during the riots. Just sit back and let things play out, knowing their real purpose is to protect the political elites, NOT the common man.
Call me a doomer all you like. TAoW is not filled with stories of people rushing headlong into conflict. It's about careful thought and preparation. And if my attempting to shed light on other possibilities is so repugnant to you, then ask yourself why. Because ironically, working tireless to mentally categorize people as doomers vs patriots may very well confirm that you're unknowingly falling prey to the very same identity politics we're supposed to be fighting against. So put that in your pipe and smoke it...
At least GEOTUS exposed the corruption to us. Too bad we're the ones stuck footing the bill...
< insert clever meme image here >
They don't stand and fight for anything.
Not for the stimulus bill, packed with pork. That's OUR hard-earned tax dollar flying out the door to other countries and special projects, while OUR OWN CITIZENS face trials and hardships.
Not for our elections, rampant mishandling and broken processes.
Not for GEOTUS, one of the greatest presidents in our nation's history.
What is conservative America left with?
THEY WILL TREMBLE AT THE UNRELENTING FORCE OF OUR PEACE!!!!
Big Mike puts down the remote: "Dafuq? Nigga please, ya'll wouldn't hurt a fly..."
KEEP PUSHING, FAFO!!!!!!!
Big Mike: "I don't know what's worse, the fact they think they scurry or the-"
PEACE!!!!!!
Big Mike: "Nigga, you gotsta act, not talk."
MUH1776!!!
Big Mike: "What are you? You's a bond villain, now? What I say about talking?"
(It's like a giant horror film parody at this point)
Says all we need to know about RINO's.
And "initial reluctance" can easily be replaced with "ongoing reluctance".
- Biden on the campaign trail lets out that he ACTUALLY believes Trump called people racist? It largely goes uncorrected.
- That he ACTUALLY believes Trump called fallen soldiers suckers? It largely goes uncorrected.
Same with Harris.
Contrast that with Trump, who is constantly showing that he is "up" on the news from multiple angles, that he reasons through them and makes up his own informed judgments...
IMO, this is one of the scariest things about a Hiden and Heels admin. They've repeatedly shown they have no ability and no desire to know the truth. And that is more than worrisome!
If those in authority TRULY feel that our country is at war (a Chy-na led false transfer of power), then they need to grab hold of the reins while they still have them and fight like hell with the full weight and might of the United States of America.
If the states that joined in the case were SERIOUS that they felt the election was stolen... If those states connected the dots and saw that China was at the forefront of this charade... If they REALLY believed that's what took place, then it's high time to put up or shut up.
And that goes for the Trump admin as well.
If they REALLY believe our nation is undergoing a false transfer of power, then the gloves must come off. I don't care how obtuse or "extreme" an idea may be, if those in power and authority TRULY feel that our country is at war, then they need to grab hold of the reins while they still have them and fight like hell with the full weight and might of the United States of America.
Regardless of how much we love GEOTUS and the MAGA movement, we're seeing the "real" US Gov't play out before our eyes.
Meanwhile, the right keeps lamenting, "Can you imagine if the roles were reversed!?!?!"
But cries of foul play like that miss the entire point and only underscore how "out of touch" the right has become with the current situation.
It's not about justice and fairness.
It's about using the guise of justice and fairness for the past 50+ years to quietly subvert the American government. Hostile foreign actors used the right's decency and respect for the rule of law to instill their agendas.
And now? Now that we see their masks slipping and can notice them for what they are?
It's too late. They have already taken the necessary positions of power and authority. In our schools, in our banking institutions, in our governments...
And yet we keep beating that same drum: "If this is allowed to happen then we have no rights!!!"
Well duh! Thank you Captain Obvious, that was precisely the whole point! That's the long-game war we're only now realizing we've lost.
What's the way out of this mess? I don't know. But burying our heads in the sand and pretending the "old rules" still matter is getting us nowhere.
