These traitors tied to Oath Keepers' leader, Stewart Rhodes met on January 3rd to plan to take on the whole U.S. Government. Read this for the PowerPoint deck they used. 🤪

On a cold January day last year, more than two dozen people gathered inside a meeting hall at the Solanco Fairgrounds in Quarryville, a wide-open room that typically hosts the local fire company’s Christmas bazaar and the annual fall fair’s baked goods contest.

On this particular Sunday afternoon – Jan. 3, 2021 – the topic was darker and much more urgent.

Members of so-called “patriot” and militia groups from across Pennsylvania and New Jersey strategized about how they would communicate with each other in the event of a major catastrophe. The failure of the electrical grid. An epic natural disaster. An armed clash with their own government.

Many in the room believed the collapse of American society was "inevitable," that the American political process was broken.

The meeting, described in detail for the first time by two participants, plays a central role in the federal government’s prosecution of a New Jersey man, James Breheny, who attended that meeting and was caught on video storming the U.S. Capitol three days later, during the armed insurrection of Jan. 6, 2021.

1. They had the intent to do bodily harm to certain congresscritters ......

as well as I to the VP. Luckily the Capitol Police Man stopped Rmoney who was headed directly into the path of the terrorists who I'm pretty sure would have beat him.

2. There are many that want to incite a civil war.

Probably more than we think, in 2020 you could not find a military style weapon or ammo anywhere. They think they can take on the US government. I fear in 2026 it will be Democrats against the US government. I feel fortunate to be 74 years old, I won't have to live in a dictatorship for long.

3. The problem is that one party cannot prevent the loss of democracy.

The American people have to decide if they want to live under autocratic rule.
Many are willing to trade in the American government for white supremacy minority rule.

I was thinking the same thing. I won't have that long to live under a dictatorship.

4. As of now we only have one party and a cult that

Will burn the country down to get their way. People like Alex Jones want to destroy Democracy. On 911 when Bush was president he claimed that our government imploded the towers. He put out a video " Lose Change"
My brother believed that b.s..

5. The GOP has been using the CIA/KGB psy-ops playbook for decades

to advance their personal power and wealth.

6. Very active Klan activities in that area as well

Southern Lancaster County is a hotbed of racist fucks.

7. Republican betrayal of America and democracy

Lock Republican traitors up.
