No post-9/11 statement is more mistaken than that those attacks “changed everything” in America. On the contrary, they accelerated the growth of trends deeply rooted in the ruling class. Statements now by Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin and Joint Chiefs Chairman Mark Milley that “domestic extremists”, whom they functionally define as whomever opposes the ruling class, pose the greatest danger of terrorism—especially if they are white—is egregious in history. The official reorientation of the U.S. armed forces’ focus on fighting what is arguably the American people’s majority, is even more so. A grassroots progressive group called the Democratic Coalition leaves no doubt about the ruling class’s 2021 practical agenda: “We cannot rest until all of Trump’s traitorous, insurrectionist foot soldiers face justice.” Insofar as they are serious, and even if they are not, this augurs civil war.

It is a long haul to 2022. A lot can happen, which means our current elected conservatives in Congress need to stand up and push back real hard. They had better, if they want to keep their office.

I’d be very surprised if suddenly they push back. Except for a handful of them, they’re not stirring themselves to do a thing to save America.

I doubt if this “Democratic Coalition” is any more “grassroots” than BLM or Antifa. Just another front group for the Communists orchestrating the takeover.
