22. This is happening WAAAAAY sooner than I thought. |
|
That's actually a good thing.
Their projections were for the middle or 3rd quarter of the next Republican President's first term. They didn't count on losing control of the model yet.
It's beautiful... can you see it?

We are living in revolutionary times. Most revolutions in this country are mostly peaceful. I fear I need to keep reminding people of that. But that is the energy you are feeling.

2. Nice how they wait until the wee hours of the morning to make their sneaky move. |
|
They probably think no one is watching or it is too dark for people to see what is going on.

4. From a tactical POV it's the best time |
|
So it should not be surprising. We are not night animals nor do we have night vission.
This is why it's done. It's not sneaky. And people need to learn this fast.

14. San Diego pd went off too |
|
They tend to be great. My conclussion, when even pds not known for this do it...it is concerted and orders are coming way above the patrolman's pay grade.
