For us to be at each other's throats.

There has never been a President who so actively harms the American people as Donald J. Trump.

This whole rally-thing is effed up. I hope no one goes there, other than the covid-ites.

Yes, Tarrump is a walking "emergency" and that's a good idea in any case.

A clear and present danger is about to arrive to do voodoo with his cult of followers who have great fealty above and beyond any patriotism or respect for their country at large. That's sounds critical to me.

Due to circumstances, he has had to substitute COVID-19 for poisoned Kool-Aid which slows down the process.

“I have received information from the Tulsa Police Department and other law enforcement agencies that shows that individuals from organized groups who have been involved in destructive and violent behavior in other States are planning to travel to the City of Tulsa for purposes of causing unrest in and around the rally,” Bynum said in his order, which was posted on the police department's Facebook and Twitter pages.


And this:

Bynum's order said crowds of 100,000 or more are expected in the area around the rally.


I'll be safely listening to the Tulsa police scanner on Broadcastify.

I used to listen to it a lot, but they blocked it here because the "bad guys" were using it to their advantage.

I went to OSU in the 1990's and under Republican rule in those years the city has deteriorated. Infrastructure is terrible. Poverty approaches 3rd world in certain parts of Oklahoma.

The emergency happened long before now.

Write in, aggravate, exaggerate and provocate. Threaten and call out. Use this media intelligently by spreading the fear they should have from true patriots. Work it, I know you know how.

Then, just don't show up, don't go. Crickets and ghostland. Not a single liberal, progressive, Democratic soul in sight.

That will be the film-at-eleven victory. Not a drop of righteous blood spilled on bad ground. Only the thick, sick saliva of mouth-breathing, disappointed fools who carried ammo and camo all the way from their cache. Hundreds of them, stuck on the TeeVee with that gob-smacked look. "Whuu-happined?"

But, don't-show-up it must be. Not even phone cams. Let FOX do it.

that could be better used for sorely needed public works projects considering COVID-19 will severely reduce your revenues?

All this craziness just so tRump can get his jollies for a couple of hours.....

A few million in federal tax dollars wasted as well......

Just the same as he has stiffed so many that worked or fulfilled contracts for his gain.
