   So I should vote harder so we can send a gop senator who will vote for John Thule for majority leader?

   I recently read a similar article, I think from The Hill. Asked a state elected official about it, he said he had not heard this. OK fine.

   Now I see this post based on NYT reporting from a Repub PAC.

   Gotta love politics and lying politicians.
   Tillis must be paying Trump back for some perceived slight he received. Just like Conyers in TX.

   Begs the question then… how can this government be dissolved, replaced, or otherwise made gone? Without using the cartridge box. Are there legal measures to nullify an election process at this point? They’re selling the notion that we’re stuck with them, but that merely places us into a corner where we only have that one box we can use.
   We have seen it repeatedly in many places, process and red-tape are used to confound the wish of the voters. Our lack of viable candidates like this, and the decrepit 2-party system are additional examples. They have rigged the system to heads they win, tails we lose. Its time to flip the tables and play a new game. Can we do that without hanging them? I know they won’t like it, which may end up requiring shooting, but…

      You asked a good question Joe.

      Massive grid down event. Their control comes from electronic surveillance, owning the media, the courts, police, military (as long as they are PAID) and banking.

      No Power THEY have NO Real Power aside from within arm’s reach. That and they will not be able to pay for their Police and Military. Pity is they are apt to become local Warlords with their tribeing up and firepower.

      But the cost will be horrific as water and sewage systems fail killing many with lack of safe water within 3 days to a week or so (some rainwater etc. extending the situation). More die from dysentery and other “wonderful” 3rd world bad water diseases.

      As about SNIP About 40.1 million people in the United States have diabetes as of 2023, representing roughly 12% of the U.S. population.

      They are toast, so one in 10 of the folks you know will pass soon from that disease even if they have a well and independent water-septic systems.

      SNIP About 16.5% of U.S. adults reported taking prescription medication for their mental health in the past 12 months, according to the 2020 National Health Interview Survey
      CDC

      This figure includes antidepressants, anti‑anxiety drugs, mood stabilizers, and other psychiatric medications, which are the primary “mood‑altering” drugs used in the U.S.

      So about 1 in 6 people you know are on Mood Altering drugs JUST to Handle “Normal Life Stressors”.

      Some of them *might* be your foxhole buddys.

      How are they going to handle BAD TIMES when those drugs run out?

      THEN Comes the OTHER 3 Horsemen (as we’ve covered disease) with FAMINE slowly starving otherwise decent folks into violence to feed their kids.

      A kind Grandmom will steal and kill to feed her grandkids.

      Let alone the GIMME DAT EBT violence.

      THAT’s why my plan is to law low and avoid as much trouble as possible until the mass die off occurs.

      It’s my opinion that folks running out in the streets trying to “punish evildoers” and such nonsense will be roadkill or loot drops as they find real predators out there.
