Seditious Stewart Rhodes was in Washington, DC this week. In attendance for a hearing on the J6 bomber, Rhodes had a reserved front row seat courtesy of his Republican partners in crime. Rep. Moskowitz made note of his presence, proceeded to ridicule and rebuke the traitor for having the gall to be anywhere near the capital.
But why would Rhodes show up now? First and foremost, ego. Hes large and in charge. Flexing to impress the members of his group.
I also think its a wink and a nod to former Oathkeepers who are now ICE agents. Rhodes is the signal, the green light for tighter interaction and coordination between the Feds and private militia organizations. His presence in DC also lends a sense of legitimacy for the J6 insurrectionists, an assurance that their movement is still very much alive.
Make no mistake; the Oathkeepers, Proud Boys and other militia groups are still standing by, still more than eager to commit treason against our country.
And no one knows that better than Stephen Miller.
Next to Trump, Stephen Miller is the most dangerous man in the current administration.
Its no secret Miller wants the Insurrection Act declared. Thats been his wet dream since J6 and hes been salivating for it ever since. President Millers increasingly strident tone and hysterical Hitlerian cosplay is becoming, if that were even possible, more dangerous as the minutes tick by.
Applying more pressure to federal agents, misleading them with lies and encouraging their worst instincts, Miller is intent on creating the social chaos necessary to get the IA in place.
Chomping at the bit to get federal boots marching on the streets of Blue States, its clear from his torture of the city that Minneapolis is his test case.
With the tragic murder of Good still in the headlines, Walz (and Pfzikter) took the brutal and unconstitutional behavior of ICE and CPB to court to get them out of their states or at the very least put the constitution back in play.
Unfortunately, a TRO was not granted. Instead, Judge Menendez scheduled two hearings for next week. The Feds go first on Monday the 19th, MN & IL respond on Thursday the 22nd.
Congress bravely decided to further delay DHS funding deliberations knowing the budget deadline and potential government shutdown on the 30th looms over their shoulders.
So, the January 2026 timeline looks like this.
Walz/ICE case: 19th-22nd
Congressional recess: 19th-23rd.
Budget deadline/govt shutdown: 30th
Im sure youve noticed how fast the Trump admin is rushing to fascism. Theyre in a big hurry. Their window of opportunity is closing and they know it. Their political futures, their efforts to avoid the repercussions and consequences of their illegal and heinous acts, getting all their pardon ducks in a row, rest not only on the condition of Trumps health, but also on the results of the midterm elections which they desperately do not want to happen.
So, Miller needs that Insurrection Act up and running. He needs the machinery moving in the right direction before Congress returns from recess. The DHS funding must be approved before a possible shutdown on the 30th.
Midterms can be effectively disrupted if Blue States are off-balance trying to fend off ICE with one hand and cope with illegal funding cuts with the other.
Time to burn Minneapolis to the ground and make it seem like its their own fault.
Enter the seditious Stewart Rhodes.
By being in the Capitol Building after his public disgrace, one could say Rhodes is tacitly indicating to his minions that they should go to Minneapolis this weekend because their cause was, and is, just. Instigate the violence necessary to teach those libtards a lesson theyll never forget, give President Miller the grounds to demand his Trump puppet declare the Insurrection Act.
And for the IA to be put in place, there will need to be sufficient carnage. This meaning death and/or severe injuries, particularly of a LEO being shot or preferably killed. Create a martyr or two, so when Congress returns from recess and begins working on the legislation for DHS, they can name the new funding bill, The Dead LEO Officer Bill or The Trudy McCall Memorandum, whatever.
But if ICE/CBP cant sufficiently goad a local to attack them in a manner which would cause one of their agents grievous bodily harm, perhaps a militia member could be enticed to do so.
Militia members shooting at ICE. Come on now, be real. But since J6, its been more than clear private militias have no compunction about assaulting other LEOs.
And militia members like to play dress up just like ICE does. In a protest situation, how will anyone be able to tell anyone apart.
Wearing no or misleading ID, strapped up and masked up, itll be a sea of angry, black-garbed tear gas throwing, zip-tie wearing group of hairless apes facing off against a collection of dissenters and resistors and grandmas who themselves are so pissed off and angry about one of their fellow citizens being shot in the face by a murdering pig of a Federal thug, theyre out in the streets wearing frog costumes, blowing whistles, yelling and chanting taunts, throwing snowballs, making rude gestures, singing protest songs and carrying signs. Toss into the mix any local police and sheriffs deputies on the scene, powder keg doesnt begin to describe the volatility of the situation.
When the DOJ gets in front of the judge next Monday the 19th, and Minneapolis had a bloody weekend due in large part from additional outside agitators such as Rhodes and his ilk, Bondi will smirk in court as she shows the judge violent videos. The MN & IL follow-up on Thursday could have a rough go.
Miller wants our country to be full-on Nazi. The potential bloodshed of the coming weekend could finally put the declaration of the Insurrection Act that hes wanted for so long within his bony grasp.
All Miller needs, all he wants is the blood of his fellow citizens on the concrete so he can tell his boss its finally time, for once and for all, to crush their perceived enemies.
And the Traitor Rhodes, in one form or another, can make that happen.
*I just learned an hour ago that there is a RW influencer speech and march in downtown Minneapolis tomorrow. Sending positive energy their way.
