Someday, in free and normie America, I’ll be an old man muttering under my breath and popping heart pills as my plane descends into Marjorie T. Greene International Airport.

I look forward to him doing and saying nothing when they start sending the rest of us to reeducation camps.

They want so very badly to be kings.

We should have a big meeting about that.

I’ve gotten better acquainted with extended family I would otherwise never interact with. Like, ever. That’s pretty cool.

I’ve already decided if I’m ever in Georgia, I’m pinging you for a meetup. I expect the same if you’re ever in God’s country (aka Nebraska).

I've read enough history to know two things: (1) you can never tell which useless action will be the last turn of the key, and (2) nothing ever matters until it does. Small, good acts β€” when repeated over and over again by small people history will never remember β€” move more mountains than you know.

Bolivia and Chile haven’t been at war since 1884, and yet: nothing. It’s a disgrace. Rigged, one might say.

Hey, if Dear Leader sees it on TV, it’s true. This is so crazy it might just work!

My church skews old, white, and MAGA; but everyone celebrated the marriage of a black man and a white woman among us, and mixed-race grandkids and adopted grandkids are normal and loved. Banging on about racist Republicans is inaccurate and counterproductive. They aren’t, and they know they aren’t.

There’s probably a regional bias. I know the Old Confederacy is a different animal. Implicit bias surely plays into other regions, but it’s also possible to overstate the influence of race.

It’s the only reason I still *occasionally* poke my head up on FB to get shot at. I attend a conservative evangelical church weekly, even fill the pulpit sometimes. I try to provide a permission structure for fellow travelers who might be wavering in their heart of hearts. No idea if it’s working. πŸ˜‚

I know a three time Trump-voting veteran who hates Democrats like you’d never believe. He told me a few weeks ago that the NG deployments make him nervous, and asked if I thought we were close to civil war. Trump is burning all his bridges.

How the Nations Rage: Rethinking Faith and Politics in a Divided Age Jonathan Leeman

Faith and politics make uneasy partners. Jonathan Leeman offers a framework for Christian engagement in public lifeβ€”grounded in humility, conviction, and the image of the church as an embassy of a higher kingdom. Full review: nwcasebolt.substack.com/p/how-the-na...

The Antifa listening session was the moment I believed this fully. The people in that room were afraid. They've lost the narrative and they know it. They slapped a plan together around Kirk's murder β€” and everyone else moved on. They don't have the military, they don't have the people. Tick, tock.

He's unpredictable! A maverick! He might talk about sanctions, or he might *not* talk about sanctions. You never know which way he's gonna jump.

I’m not sure how this *doesn’t* happen unless the electorate legit breaks for MAGA in β€˜26 and β€˜28. If not, Trump & Co. will try to hold power using every dirty trick in the book. It will get ugly, and they’ll fail because they’re buffoons with no actual support. Americans will want retribution.

Wait, that’s a thing? I stand for the anthem because I was raised that way, and I like doing it. Doesn’t bother me if others don’t.

But we’re supposed to stand for God Bless America too?

I’m getting old, man, I gotta pace my standing.

Don't be afraid. It's the dumbest peacocking and performative pearl-clutching you've ever seen. But it's also sad, shabby theater β€” a desperate attempt to prop up a coup with a murder most Americans have already forgotten about. I won't say it was easy to listen to, but fear was not my takeaway.

They're not ready for this. They're trying to convince themselves Kirk's murder lets them go full fash, but they're wrong. They don't have the military, they don't have the people. They have a sick old man, a bunch of ppolice academy dropouts, and a team of mediocre grifters. They have nothing.

Listening live to the White House Antifa β€œlistening session”. They’re trying mightily to turn Kirk’s murder into their Reichstag fire.

This is such small potatoes. Nothing they say aligns with anything real. So it won’t work, and they have nothing else. NOTHING.

Pour one out for the sad fascists.

The one and only reason I *might* believe this is that a lot of GOP politicians feel trapped in this thing. We bash them for cowardice when they criticize Trump privately and anonymously and then salute in public. But this does suggest to me that they’ll take an exit if it looks safe.

Also: most Americans have no genetic fear of the military, and a lot of genetic confidence in the rule of law and their right to vote. Even most rank/file MAGA are bamboozled into thinking we need the troops to protect those exact same rights. A fascist cabal at the top can’t change this overnight.
