The MAGA armchair warriors are up in arms this week. What remains to be seen is if they actually take to the streets, as threatened. My instinct is no. I base this upon the fact that MAGA was enabled and empowered to show up in Washington, D.C. on January 6, 2021 by the fact that Donald Trump was telling them openly that he would handle their legal fees and/or issue blanket pardons.

That’s not happening this time. Ergo, I think they’re blowing smoke. VICE News:

In what is becoming a now all-too-familiar trend, former President Donald Trump’s far-right supporters have threatened civil war after news broke Thursday that the former president was indicted for allegedly taking classified documents from the White House without permission.

“We need to start killing these traitorous fuckstains,” wrote one Trump supporter on The Donald, a rabidly pro-Trump message board that played a key role in planning the January 6 attack on the Capitol. Another user added: “It’s not gonna stop until bodies start stacking up. We are not civilly represented anymore and they’ll come for us next. Some of us, they already have.” […]

Trump supporters are making specific threats too. In one post on The Donald titled, “A little bit about Merrick Garland, his wife, his daughters,” a user shared a link to an article about the attorney general’s children.

Under the post, another user replied: “His children are fair game as far as I’m concerned.”

In a post about the special counsel conducting the probe, one user on The Donald wrote: “Jack Smith should be arrested the minute he steps foot in the red state of Florida.

“Perhaps it’s time for that Civil War that the damn DemoKKKrats have been trying to start for years now,” a member of The Donald wrote. Another, referencing former President Barack Obama and former secretary of State Hillary Clinton, said: “FACT: OUR FOREFATHERS WOULD HAVE HUNG THESE TWO FOR TREASON…” […]

Others on similar social media platforms made general calls for an armed uprising. “The entire Republican Party should flood the courthouse and demand real justice here,” one supporter wrote on Truth Social. It wasn’t just anonymous users saying this, however: Right-wing talk show host Charlie Kirk called on all Trump supporters to descend on Miami on Tuesday to protest the indictment.

It’s the biggest campaign contribution ever, thanks Dims,” one user wrote on The Donald. “This will actually help Trump get re-elected by a wide margin. Then he will go on a rampage. These communists don’t know when to quit,” another wrote.

They’re huffing and puffing and I’ll believe it when I see them blow the house down. I think the “mob” in Miami next Tuesday will resemble the one in Manhattan the day that Trump was indicted there. You may recall that the reporters outnumbered the protestors and got bored and began to interview one another.

That said, anything can and does happen.

  1. Rebels without a clue. I hope you posers realize you can’t eat buckets of KFC in the joint, as most of you look like you failed to train for war. Boot camp? Two months of physical and mental adversity. I doubt most of you, that I’ve seen, would be able to meet the requirements. So BRING IT ON YOU FASCIST MUTHERFUCKERS! When I see your U-Haul pull up, I’ll be ready. Note to the sane citizens: if you need a u-haul, be sure to reserve it.HAHAHA

    • I wonder if there are any odds-makers who are taking bets on whether the MAGAs riot in Miami? I think Tuesday will come and go.

      Say, anybody heard from Mitch McConnell lately?

      • He’s been on radio silence since cavein mccarthy was elected speaker. He’s trying to become invisible so he won’t get any attention for the part he played in dfg’s dirty dealings in the White House.

  2. I’m tired of the assorted congresscritters pushing this. I’d like them to have to talk to the FBI about their social media statements, as well as their backing of the former guy.

  3. Many years ago I had to spend some time at a ‘teaparty’ with the FBI. It was laughable how they stepped out of a cliche, dark suits, sunglasses indoors, guns at the hip. Back then they seemed more like frat boys to me with half baked ideas and threats. Since I was raised by a violent drunk, I really couldn’t be threatened. They got frustrated with me turning their questions back on them. Since I had done nothing wrong, they had to release me. They do have my palm prints on file. Let’s hope they’ve gotten better at their job. Telling the truth in America can get you into trouble quickly if they don’t like what they hear. FACT.

  4. I think those overweight, underbrained ‘militia’ should stop wearing camouflage pants and start wearing khaki ones.
    They will need to wear those to hide the colour their pants will turn when they face ‘targets’ who WILL shoot back (unlike the dummies they ‘train’ on)

  5. Civil war. Hmmm. Ok. A) I’ll take a “wait and see” position on this one since so many magats closely resemble the two in the picture at the beginning of this piece and those two aren’t doing anything other than sitting on their asses and stuffing food in their faces, and B) Do they think they are the only ones with weapons, of any kind, available? Their ignorance boggles the mind. Just because we don’t walk around armed, or at least showing we’re armed, does not mean we do not own firearms. Many, many of us hunt, target practice, own weapons for whatever reason and you’d likely not even know. There are as well many of us who do not like what former guy and the magats are doing to our nation so should there be an insurrection, war, minor outbreak of asinine violence, whatever, and it comes anywhere near THE REST OF US (i.e. the MAJORITY) these f**kwads are more likely than not going to receive what they should have received a very long time ago: a bullet in the head (thanks RATM) or some other life taking action.

    I’m sick to f**king death of their stupidity. They are an embarrassment to our country and need to be taken out of action permanently. Civil war? Sure, why not. Our nation would likely be better for it if we do it correctly this time and treat them, the losers, appropriately and imprison/execute them for treason. We neglected to do that in the 1800’s and it has brought us to this moment in time. Let’s not repeat that stupid decision.
