I may be going with a group to Washington, D.C., for the 6th. I expect a crowd of over 1M people there. Busses are being leased all over the country, all headed the same direction. I just hope we leave early enough to avoid the traffic snarls we’re certain to run into. I also hope everyone who goes understands how enticing a target that many patriots in one place makes for those who are trying to steal this country away from us. We’ll have to trust the security forces there to keep us safe, but I’m also aware that the trip to and from D.C. could be equally as hazardous. I won’t be able to relax until we’re at least out of Virginia.

A war is coming. I can smell it. Get your mind wrapped around it. Don’t let it drive you crazy, though. You just need to get mentally prepared for a nightmare. You don’t want it to be a surprise.

Then again, I could be wrong. I pray every day I am, but I’ve seen this day coming from years ago. I thought we’d have more time, but it looks like we don’t.

Gather up with friends and family and make yourselves a survival plan. Even if there’s nothing going on near you, it’s the smart thing to do.

I talked to my county sheriff this morning and offered my services to him. I had a suspicion he didn’t have a contingency plan ready to go. I was right! He seems to think our county is a backwater and won’t be on anyone’s hit list. He admitted he understood the potential and has had a series of discussions with his top echelon, but they haven’t even committed a plan to paper. I told him of my background. I was a military logistician for 28 years and I’ve written so many planning documents I can’t count them. I told him I could write an executable plan for him if he wanted, and I could muster up a few hundred people just like me to stand behind him and his people. I hope he doesn’t sit on his hands. Just to make sure, I contacted his administrative assistant, who I’ve known for years. I laid the situation out in black and white to her and told her to make sure the sheriff doesn’t think he’s okay without advanced planning. If his people are overrun, they’ll never regain the upper hand without the National Guard. That’s a problem because if they’re here, they’ll also be in Montgomery, Birmingham, and Huntsville. There’s not enough guardsmen to go around. That idea is a non-starter.

These are things people everywhere in the country have to be thinking about. But, they only have a day or so to think, then they need to start acting. A civil war isn’t something we should play catch-up on. That’s what makes for years of fighting. If such things can be stopped right out of the gate, it’ll take a far shorter time. Maybe as few as two months. Even then, tens of thousands are likely to die. Don’t even turn on your TV if it starts. If you do, all you’ll hear about is violent bands of white supremacists, right wing militants, rogue militias, and all the usual suspects. They’ll paint Antifa, Black Lives Matter, the New Black Panthers, the John Brown Gun Club, and all the other anarchist and Marxist groups as victims. Far too many are going to be fooled by that.

One thing I warned my sheriff of – the first groups we see coming at us will be in disguise. They’ll be wearing MAGA hats, Trump campaign T-shirts, etc., and will be carrying American flags, the Gadsden Flag and other symbols that might normally identify them as part of the so-called “right.” Part of my planning includes everyone not in uniform wearing distinctive garb that is easily identifiable and change the color every day. I also will propose challenges and responses, like the military uses, and a verbal cue so the “real” patriots know when they’re looking at an infiltrator. There are all kinds of things to be thought of, and I need to get busy doing that thinking. It’s obvious to me the sheriff here isn’t.

Okay, now that all that’s been said, let me assure you I haven’t gone totally around the bend. I’m a bit agitated by everything that’s going on and trying to keep my cool. If I lose it I’m no good to anyone. The things I’ve been telling you are all too real. I’ve been monitoring the domestic terror groups for years. I look at their web page postings and have gotten pretty good at interpreting their subtle messaging. The only reason we’re not seeing much from them right now is …. MONEY. Those people are professional anarchists. The riot scenes we’ve seen all year were pre-scripted and paid-for. Some of them were done solely to give those black-clad thugs some real-life experience so when the real fights start, they won’t run. They let them go crazy in a few towns before their handlers let them carry guns. Today they’re armed. They’ve been observed at gun ranges all over the country learning how to use their weapons. All they’re waiting for is their plane tickets, contact phone numbers, and cash payments. Everything they will need is already staged somewhere near their arrival city, most likely in a recently leased warehouse or possibly several leased storefronts that suddenly have their windows painted or papered over so no one sees what's inside. They’re always paid in cash. The money comes from overseas and it’s been laundered so many times the FBI still hasn’t figured out the sources. They’ve been trying ever since the Freddie Gray riots in Baltimore, but still haven’t succeeded. Oh, lest I forget – they’ve been on a recruiting drive all year. They’re no longer looking for those thumb-sucking, basement-dwelling mama’s boys of yesterday. Have you wondered why some governors have all of a sudden released a lot of violent criminals from jail and stopped prosecutions? Wonder no more. We’ll see them again soon enough. They’re on the same payroll now. They’re killers. They’re psychos. They can’t be intimidated. And they’ll show up on our streets to do what they’ve been paid to do. We either fight them or they’ll systematically slaughter us.

You can share this with anyone you wish. Some will think it’s the ravings of a lunatic, but others will know better. That’s what I want for others – know better and find a safe place. You should be okay until the evening of the 5th. After that – who knows!

God may or may not be on our side in this. America is very reminiscent of Jerusalem before the Babylonians invaded Israel, carted all the Hebrews off, and enslaved them. It could be God is a bit tired of our nonsense and is putting us all to the ultimate test. I’m constantly reminded of how the Jews in Germany refused to acknowledge their situation until it was far too late. That’s us! We are watching the culmination of a plan that was set in motion before 1930. There have been warnings along the way, but no one would heed. Everyone wanted to think “It can’t happen in America!” My father warned me of this day when I was 14. We were discussing things like WWII and the rise of the Soviets. He told me then that only a fool would think it can’t happen here. He told me to never trust politicians in Washington and always be aware that the greedy bastards will eventually sell us all out. He was exactly right.

In Liberty,
