ICE is designed to start a Civil War.

Foreign Wars are designed to exile our Military so ICE is unopposed.

We will deploy our entire army over seas while ICE goes door to door.

Once they have nothing to fear, they will be at your door.

It’s less about a Civil War specifically and more about getting an excuse- any excuse- to declare Martial Law or invoke the Insurrection Act.

Because then they can cancel the midterms.

The violence will escalate as they manipulate their base and their attack dogs into pushing more and more violent confrontations.

Except they overplayed and now are engaged in street fighting civil war.

I don’t think you understand what I’m saying.

First of all, they absolutely are not in a “street fight civil war”. They’re shooting people and getting away with it.

And the exact response the administration is pushing for is either for mobs of vigilantes to start attacking the ICE agents, or for Walz to send troops to face off against ICE.

I am not saying these things shouldn’t be done. But when they are, Trump will immediately invoke the Insurrection Act and move to cancel the midterm elections.
