Better to keep the yahoos keyed up and fearful that their lifestyle is ending with these culture wars, and have them ready to support the next insurrection against our government. It's called ratings... Many of those talking heads you see on TV don't believe what they're saying (though some do). They're doing it for the paycheck. Most of them are just like Andy Griffith's Lonesome Rhodes, only there's no Patricia Neal to turn up their mics (most of the time) to catch them off-guard. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Hibi Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 7 hours ago, Bogie56 said: Security in DC is beefed up further after Capitol Police receive intelligence of a militia plot to breach the Capitol by far-right group Three Percenters on Thursday - the day QAnon loyalists believe Trump will be made president again Capitol police received an intelligence bulletin on Tuesday warning of a far-right militia plot to breach the Capitol this Thursday, specifically naming a threat from the Three Percenters. Capitol police had announced earlier on Tuesday that they had been made aware of 'concerning information and intelligence pertaining to March 4th' and were increasing security as a result. According to the QAnon conspiracy theory, Thursday is the day that President Donald Trump (pictured center) will return to power. The Capitol is being guarded by almost 5,000 troops ahead of March 4 (pictured top and bottom). Members of the Three Percenters have been among those charged with involvement in the January 6 Capitol riot. According to a George Washington University study published on Tuesday, rioters included members of military networks, military 'clusters,' and 'inspired believers'.
