15. Michigan Militia & Friends were to be part of REX-84.

In Oliver North's heyday, the idea was that the Michigan Militia and a bad number more of the other right-wing paramilitary groups across the nation would be deputized to do Reagan-Bush's domestic dirty work, in the event of a "national emergency." The idea was that the government would be able to circumvent the posse comitatus laws if there were mass protests against a "hypothetical" U.S. invasion of Central American nations like El Salvador or Nicaragua. Reagan-Bush thought they might need to round up undesirables, foreigners and whoever else they designated as enemies of the state.

Wish I could tall you down, Jackpine Radical. You are spot-on regarding our political reality. The same people who can intercept any phone call, spy and drone to their heart's content, also control Wall Street and the nuclear stockpile. Other than that, we got 'em where we want 'em: scared of the tumbril.

As for who will survive the right's big round-up: those who can afford it.
