Trump's Texas Speech Calling For Race War--- What A Serious Counter-Terrorism Investigation Should Be Focused On

For security experts who have had training in counterrorism or defending against insurgencies, there are certain specific areas whiich are likely (or hopefully) being investigated in the aftermath  of Trump's dogwhistle call for race war in his Texas speech, which targeted three cities. New York,  Washington DC, and Atlanta. 

Atlanta, I believe is the most serious actual target, since the Federal law enforcement and National Guard capability of DC and NY should be a sufficient deterrent to an actual armed attack en masse along the lines of January 6th. Atlanta however is more isolated (meaning a historically African American Democratic stronghold City located in the surrounding Trump Red State of the neo-Confederate GOP) with a long history of racist violence, including relatively recent racist mob attacks on African American peaceful marches and activity, (See Forsythe Georgia) and a state which elected the vile racist Marjorie Taylor Greene, one of Trump's closest acolytes. It also shares a border with the January 6th insurrectionist training camp, the DeSantis/Matt Gaetz State of Florida, which produced a large number of Capitol rioters. 

Also it should be remembered that today's heavily armed Confederate and Nazi terrorist militias are enormously symbolic in their decisions to unleash violence, as you saw in Charlottesville, which was built as an action to defend the Confederate monument there.  They seize upon historic dates and locations to launch their actions,  (ex. McVeigh bombed the Oklahoma Federal Building on April 19, anniversary of Waco) and Trump's Texas speech was delivered on January 30th, anniversary of Hitler's ascension to Chancellor of Germany. (An important point made by columnist Will Bunch which Professor HCR referenced yesterday) Do not think these things are coincidence,, they are a pattern.. (remember that the Alt right CPAC conference last year built a stage for Trump which was an SS Rune symbol?) 

Atlanta is the home of the MLK Church, and family legacy, in many ways the birth center of the US Civil Rights movement and home base of the old SCLC.  It is the current home base for Governor candidate Stacey Abrams, the leader of the US voting rights movement, also centered in Atlanta.  Trump would see them as a preferrable target, given his own violently racist identity.

In understanding the terror threat which presents itself in the form of Trump's speech, in effect, he is acting like a terrorist hijacker who takes hostages, threatening to throw a body out the door every 15 minutes until he gets money and a helicopter. His rage is not just about him, but that his family is facing indictment and he's about to lose his daddy's family business.

Nevertheless, Trump may believe he has legal protection or cover in DC or New York, but he doesn't have much at all in Atlanta, therefore is most vulnerable there. So I believe that security experts and FBI agents who are being brought in to protect the principals of the Georgia prosecution should also be paying very close attention to MLK's former church, Ebeneezer Baptist Church, of which Senator Warnock has been Pastor,  the King family themselves, candidate Abrams and her volunteers, and all other political and religious targets symbolic of the Civil Rights movement, emphatically including but not limited to Georgia.  

This was the second Trump call for race war, after last week's Arizona speech where he accused Democrats of white genocide by giving preferential access to Blacks for the covid vaccine. The point being, when someone like Trump tells you who they are, and what they plan to do, just like Adolf Hitler in his Munich Putsch trial, it is best to listen to them and plan accordingly.

Today in History, July 17, 1918- Czar of Russia and Family Executed

Today in History, July 17, 1918, Execution of the Romanovs, the Czar and Czaritsa of Russia and their Children by the Soviet Government. By July 1918, Russia was engulfed in a hellish civil war which would cost millions of lives and damage a country already reeling from the devastation of World War I. Swept away in this hellfire was the old Tsarist monarchy, last headed by Nicholas II. Nicholas had abdicated in 1917 as the Russian Revolution swept through the nation. Since then he had been a prisoner of successive governments, first the Provisional Government and then the administration run by Vladimir Lenin and the Bolsheviks. The Romanovs were shipped from place to place, eventually coming to Yekaterinburg in April, in the Urals, an area known for its hard Communist sympathies. As the White Russian forces grew closer, Lenin and his associates ordere...

Milton Friedman- The Man Who Revived Fascist Economics, and Called It "Freedom".

Image
  You may have heard the name before, as he was featured in a PBS Series, titled "Free To Choose", also the title of his most famous and misnamed book. He was a prolific author, and widely publicized by Conservative News Media and Magazines, especially by the followers of William F. Buckley. In fact, Milton Friedman is the current top economic advisor to the so-called "movement conservatives", from Nixon to Reagan, to Newt Gingrich and Trumpworld,  and is still to this day the main architect of the GOP approach to dealing with the present economic crisis, though he has been keeping a low profile. A very low profile. In fact, six feet under. He is currently dead, and has been for 14 years, yet his horrific philosophy continues to stalk about, haunting us like the living dead animated by a Voodoo curse, burning live Chickens, chanting incantations, and propitiating the irrational forces of Britain's Adam Smith and his "Invisible Hand". (Which is the hand...

How Do You Know If What You Are Reading Is True Or Useful? - A One Year Old Facebook Post

Image
 How do we know whether what we are reading is true, or for that matter useful? There are many journalists in the US today who are not only excellent writers, but are just good people. They are well informed, have the best intentions and are highly professional.  I have to force myself to write, and it comes with great difficulty because I am blocked, and had little journalistic training. Without an editor I feel lost, and feel as though I want to rewrite everything or throw it out after I read it. Reading books and articles is my favorite hobby, and when I'm doing that I am in my happy place.  As of now I have 30 News and Magazine sites bookmarked and I read them everyday as a routine. I usually read anywhere from 2-10 articles in each, depending upon what newsworthy events are breaking that day. Plus I have a number of books on history that I have going at any one time. This is no big accomplishment or unique, it's just how I occupy my time and is my form of work these ...
