I have had considerably more idiot trolls responding to my notes than normal. I am not in the mood for it. The worst among us seem unable to not reveal the rot of their soul.
I experienced the same thing. I seldom block anyone but I did several times last night. Sadly, many of them were rightists saying things like “Zion Don deserved it” or the like.
I still have not banned anyone. They don't typically return after I eviscerate them. I prefer to leave their comment up to reveal their character. But I suppose it is only a matter of time before one persists.
But neither Communists nor Nazis nor even WW2 had their way with Spain.
Nor did Hitler get his road to Gibraltar 🇬🇮, which he very much wanted.
It is true, the Spanish had their way with each other…
… as far as government or nepos (nepotism) having sticky fingers… that government governs best that governs least … the Founders of America didn’t feel the need to explain everything, but that’s what they meant.
Here’s the thing: we all already knew the left were bloodthirsty, inhuman, gleeful liars and hypocrites who’d piss on all of our graves merely for voting differently than them. Their reaction to this shouldn’t surprise or shock anybody. You know if Trump had been killed they’d be dancing in the streets. So anyone who is still on board with the regime is unsalvagable by any human means.
The nation dodged a bullet yesterday. Had the assassin killed Donald Trump, it would have likely triggered something too ugly to imagine. But anyone who is not incensed and angry by the assassination attempt, the ineptitude of the security surveillance that let a gunman get in a sniper "hide" in plain sight 130 yards away, and who won't be angrier by a lethargic DOJ slow-walking and bumbling an 18 month investigation may be pretty much one of those "enemies of democracy" they talk about. I pray for a return to normalcy.
I'm not sure it would have been civil war had the bullet found its mark (Trump has always struck me - to use the tired Roman analogy - more as a combination of the brothers Gracchus than anything else, both in what he represents and the times he lives in), but it certainly would have been ugly. We were all very lucky yesterday.
The window for a peaceful solution to our national problems is closing. 'Pray for the peace of Babylon for in it you will have peace' was good advice 2600 years ago and it is good advice now.
I have read an autobiographical account of a foreign volunteer fighting on the side of… the fascists. This was totally unfashionable in an age when, like now, it is North Face, Gucci, and socialism. The “peasants” were also fascists but the writers, professors, and elites were bolsheviks. Cannot remember the title but we are all living the story now. How will it end.
I cannot express enough gratitude that we were spared the horrors of civil war. It feels like we have been granted one final opportunity to roll back the empire and set things right.
Trump dodged a literal bullet; we may have well dodged a figurative one. But the fact that Trump is still alive doesn't mean our Sotelo Moment will turn out any differently in the end. We should examine not just the fact that the attempt was made, but that he almost certainly had significant help from somewhere, and the subsequent "too bad he missed" social media surge tells us that what led to this is alive and well and still kicking.

“We just hated each other.”
Franco’s Brother in law on why the Spanish Civil war happened.
The most honest moment in Serrano Suñer's public life.
Perhaps.

One inch away from world changing disaster.

Well said sir

Hear hear! Honestly, we French must do that with ALL those who would cheer against the nationalistes en France & Quebec!
This is absolutely disgusting and how anyone could even consider cheering on such an event is horrifying. It is terrible.
Prayers for the bystander who was unlucky and prayers to Trump and his family. We were very blessed this wasn't worse.

Sir; God preserved us on SATURDAY. Today is Sunday.
The Churches are filled.
If the Men of the Cloth ⛪️ say this morning the Hour is at Hand; Alea Iacta Est.
This is a Protestant country Sir, I say this as Irish American Catholic of Feni@n bloodline.
THEY DECIDE. This 🇺🇸 is their country, they are the Temporal Power here… and of course our kingdom is not of the world.

Was it "Mine Were of Trouble" by Peter Kemp ?
Yes
👍🏻
I thought of Sotelo yesterday. I had no idea it was the same day on the calendar. Wow.
Preach on, Brother. Preach on.
