What Is to Be Done? Preparing the Information Battlespace
What Is to Be Done? Preparing the Information Battlespace--Michael Walsh
"Great commanders understand the importance of choosing their battlefields carefully and, whenever possible, fighting on the most favorable and advantageous terrain.
...Even if the odds are against you, in other words, a smaller and generally more mobile force can defeat a large army if the field of fight is advantageous.

As American conservatives—traditional Americans, we should more properly call them—continue to reel from the cultural and political onslaught of the Biden/Harris/Ron Klain/Barack Obama administration, it’s about time we come to realize that we are fighting the wrong enemy on the wrong battlefield, without a proper army.
So, what is to be done?
...The truth is, the Democrats were caught with their pants down in 2016, immediately vowed to never let it happen again, and then set about their four-year task of battlespace preparation.

...The truth is, the Democrats were caught with their pants down in 2016, immediately vowed to never let it happen again, and then set about their four-year task of battlespace preparation.
You can read all about how they did it in this by now-notorious piece in Time Magazine, which includes the following victory lap:
“There was a conspiracy unfolding behind the scenes …. They got states to change voting systems and laws and helped secure hundreds of millions in public and private funding. They fended off voter-suppression lawsuits, recruited armies of poll workers and got millions of people to vote by mail for the first time...Read all!

Tucker Carlson Responds to Bombshell Spying Revelations and Burns His Critics to the Ground
"As RedState reported earlier, Tucker Carlson’s previous claims of being spied on and having his communications leaked by the NSA were true.
Axios reported on the leaked emails today, which contained nothing but Carlson attempting to set up an interview with Russia’s Vladamir Putin.
Of note is that NBC News interviewed Putin just a few weeks ago and there is nothing untoward about a news host seeking an interview with an adversarial figure.
Now, Carlson has responded via his show and in the process, he burned his critics and the intel community to the ground.
...Our intel communities are hopelessly corrupt. There is no saving them.
Now, Carlson has responded via his show and in the process, he burned his critics and the intel community to the ground.
...Our intel communities are hopelessly corrupt. There is no saving them.
They need to be completely torn down by the next Republican president.
As to the absolute hacks who are claiming that it’s not spying for the NSA to gather communications of a journalist, unmask him, and then leak to the media, they are the worst kind of bootlickers.
...This is not how things are supposed to work, and anyone defending this is disgusting...Read all!

Keystone XL Pipeline Company Suing Joe Biden for Damages - Louder With Crowder
Keystone XL Pipeline Company Suing Joe Biden for Damages - Louder With Crowder:
Joe Biden's first order of business after being sworn in as president was to kill American jobs. That's what happened when he executive-ordered away the permit for the Keystone XL pipeline. There were good-paying jobs. Biden signed the EO. Those good-paying jobs disappeared and the American employees who had them were forced to fend for themselves. Now it may cost American taxpayers as well. TC Energy, the company responsible for the pipeline, is looking to recover damages, to the tune of $15 billion dollars.

Justice Department Ex-Staffer Testifies to Abuse of Power in Voting Section:
If HR 4 were to pass, radical Justice Department bureaucrats will object to nearly every election integrity reform enacted by states. Americans do not want biased federal bureaucrats running their elections. Washington should stay out of elections and let the states continue to run them as they have for more than 200 years.
The way we were-----The Hammond Circus Train Wreck | A Short Documentary | Fascinating Horror
"On the 22nd of June, 1918, the Hagenbeck-Wallace Circus was on its way to its next scheduled performance in Hammond, Indiana.
More than 300 labourers and circus performers were on board one of the circus’s two dedicated trains when it was forced to stop to deal with a mechanical issue.
The vast majority of passengers were asleep, unaware entirely that another train was bearing down on them at full speed, and that in just a few minutes the Hagenback-Wallace Circus would suffer one of the worst tragedies it would ever endure."
