    The desk is obviously to hide the fact that he's not wearing pants.

    Does that “Christian” militia group in Michigan remind anyone of a jihadist training group in Afghanistan??
  • @Durgenheim
    The wildest thing is that these traitors gave up the game with every chance they could; it wasn't a secret what they wanted to do and how they wanted to accomplish it. It was entirely transparent, but somehow, as long as they didn't use specific words or phrases, they somehow are able to avoid all legal ramifications - even when their own supporters committed crimes because of their rhetoric.
  • @boxhead6177
    The fact that these politicians are called "law makers", when they are in fact both "law ignorant" and "law breakers" is astounding.

    I remember when I told people that Trump saying "Stand back, stand-by" was more of an order rather than a call to leave I got so much push back from it. From my VERY limited military experience (I was in military school) there is a big difference from telling military people to "stand-by" and "dismiss". These words are very powerful.
  • I came to this video after the 11 Oath Keepers were charged with seditious conspiracy. I watched a short PBS video wherein an attorney who was being interviewed said it's been a very difficult charge to convict in the past because prosecutors failed to prove that the defendants had a "sincere belief" they could genuinely bring their plot to fruition. My question is: why would a "sincere belief" matter?

    “So it’s treason then” oh oh look he did the thing 😂

    Basically if you plan to commit sedition or treason just be REAL vague, never explicit.
  • Here in Ireland we have the 'Offences against the state act' which is in fact a result and governed by our constitution. What it says is that even discussing the illegal overthrow of the state or doing anything to harm it, or raising any form of armed group other than the legal police force or armed forced of the state, is treason. So you cannot form any sort of militia. You aren't even allowed to discuss the overthrow of the government by any means other than the ballot box. Now you could say that for example a gun club, of which there are a few in Ireland, would be 'forming a militia', guys who like shooting guns on the weekend are all of one mind and this constitutes an armed force in the country right? But to get any sort of a license in Ireland to own a weapon, you have to explicitly state that you are not a member of any outlawed group or unknown group that stands apart from the Irish armed forces or police force. Even members of the armed forces and even police officers (who are unarmed in Ireland anyway) have to sign this. It reminds them that their club is not a militia and if they think it is they can be tried for treason. Our constitution prohibits any armed force, full stop, that is not paid for and operated by the Irish state. In fact ONE person, who is not an Irish citizen, with a gun, could be legally interpreted as a foreign force. Hence the recent and ongoing argument that as a neutral nation, with this law, we cannot allow US deliveries of weapons to Ukraine from landing at Shannon airport since those weapons are owned and operated by a foreign government. Regardless of how friendly that foreign government might be, our constitution prohibits a foreign army operating on our territory. The only way to circumvent that is to rewrite the constitution, and the only way that would happen is for the Irish population to remove our neutrality clause by a referendum, and 95% of the population will not do that! We've been a neutral nation since the foundation of the state, through every war in the 209th century and every war in the 21st including the current one n Ukraine. Although we did impose sanctions on Russia becasue we are also in the EU. A legal way around this is for the US to 'donate' these weapons to Ireland, including the aircraft that delivered them, and we would then immediately pass them on to the UK as some ort of 'gift' and the UK would then deliver them to Ukraine. Bizarre right? However other laws prevent Ireland from transiting, dealing or delivering arms, so that's sort of screwed, but at least its just a law and not a constitutional requirement. This might seem like its is complete state control of a right to bear arms... and yes, that is exactly what it is. However you can still own a weapon in ireland... Its just that not a lot of people can be bothered. Americans often cite the constitutional right to carry arms in case King George V comes back and invades the US. However Ireland has, and had, more reason to fear an invasion by the British needing us to have guns than the US will ever have. We are after all the only nation that borders with the UK. Yet we manage not to run about in the woods dressed up like an idiot playing cowboys!

    This didn’t age poorly. It aged sadly.

    "The stuff that was on instagram deserves to be in jail." That line is fantastic.
  • @gryyphyn8639
    Holy crap. THANK YOU for pointing out that initial American leadership was guilty of treason against the crown. That context is so incredibly important to what is happening right now.
  • @ridgebhouse
    you have a great talent for taking complex topics making them easier to understand while adding a little humor. Good job!😉
  • @Next0gen0
    "You are advocating for Serfdom" That statement is irony on the highest level.
  • @cjtramm8
    My dad was a defense attorney, he would have loved listening to you. I do think he would have debated many point but he love to do that. Great job.
