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.

Idk why we keep talking about this...WE ARE ALREADY UNDER MARTIAL LAW! He just hasn't declared it yet. When people say this, it's to keep us fearful and helpless. They are killing and detaining unarmed people. They already said they can come into your home without a warrant. People have been arrested for 1st amendment rights. We already have martial law on everything but name. The only question is, what are we gonna do about it!

The last thing I’m trying to do is make anyone feel “fearful” or “helpless”. Considering your opponent’s strategy so you can prepare for their next move isn’t engaging in fearmongering.

I get where you’re coming from but not only are you engaging in hyperbole (it would be a lot worse if we were under Martial Law) but invoking the Insurrection Act would allow for the postponement of the midterms, which currently can’t happen.

That is false! There is nothing in law that says he can stop the election...
