Nothing to see here folks, nothing to see! Please do not be alarmed! Please disburse!  Please disburse! Of course, I say all of that extremely tongue-in-cheek because not only is this very bizarre but it raises multiple red flags. I’ll explain what those are in just a moment, but first here’s what just happened…. As reported by MTG: Capitol Police hold “Casualty Evacuation Exercise” at the Capitol with multiple helicopters last night. Stay with me on this.

Stay with me on this. Trump told us to make it to big to rig and we are on our way to making that happen as long as everyone votes for Trump, but we are in danger of losing the House with approximately 20 House seats literally too close. Without the House, we can not pass critical legislation to bring forward our MAGA agenda. But also, if Democrats control the House, they will refuse to certify President Trump’s election on January 6th. They’ve already said they won’t certify. Leading into this election just in the past few months, Democrats are making big moves to secure the Capital in January for certification on the 6th. Last night, Capitol Police conducted a “Casualty Evacuation Exercise” on the East Front with multiple helicopters. This comes after the DoD signed off on military force to be used to assist police against the American people, Mayorkas designating Jan 6th as a “Special Security Event” through Homeland Security, Mayor Bowser of DC requesting security for Jan 6th, and announcement of fencing to be erected Jan 5-21st. While security is always important, Democrats are the party of riots, violence, and destruction. If they lose, they don’t care about securing anything. They nearly burned down Washington on Trump’s inauguration in 2017, rioted nightly during 2020, called us all Nazi’s and Trump Hitler for years, and shot Trump in the face. But they are ramping up mass security for the Capitol because they are planning to maintain control of the Capitol by winning the House. Trump’s momentum is too big to stop and we are watching the polls stopping the steal for Trump, but we are not doing the same thing for critical House races. And if Trump wins the WH, Republicans win the Senate, but we lose the House, Democrats will build a fortress of resistance in the House. They will stop everything, they will impeach Trump again, and they will abuse every ounce of power that comes with the House of Representatives. And Democrats see all of us as the enemy. Make sure you VOTE all the way down ballot for Republicans and don’t skip voting just because you are in an unwinnable Democrat state or a solid Republican state and you don’t think your vote matters that much. You voting for Trump AND that RINO Congressman you can’t stand is actually the key right now to saving this country!! We have to win the Presidency, the House, and the Senate!!! GO VOTE AND WIN IT ALL!!! There is a complete “MSM” blackout on this story…. Test it for yourself, try to Google anything about this and no matter what you search you can’t find one single news article written about it. Good thing you have us! But it most definitely is real. Here is the U.S. Capitol Police Twitter account warning about the exercises in advance: EXERCISE: This evening, the United States Capitol Police & our federal partners are conducting a routine training exercise on the grounds of the U.S. Capitol.

Capturing real boots on the ground video of the entire event. Watch here: Ok, so why do I say this raises multiple red flags? The first is just the obvious strangeness of the drills, combined with the close proximity to the election. That’s obvious. But now I want to dig a little deeper and remind everyone back on 9/11 of 2001 when we had the tragic attacks on the Twin Towers and the Pentagon, one detail many people often forget or didn’t know about is that our government was running multiple “training exercises” on the day of the attacks which actually led to a ton of confusion when the real event hit at the exact same time. What are the odds? Here are FOUR of the training exercises our Government was conducting on that very day — take a look and see how oddly similar they all are to the actual events that occurred that day: On September 11, 2001, several military and government exercises were indeed taking place that involved scenarios involving aircraft hijackings and responses to terrorist attacks. These drills coincided with the real-life attacks on the World Trade Center and other locations. Below are the primary details of these simulations, their nature, and the similarities they had with the actual events. 1. Vigilant Guardian Organizer: NORAD (North American Aerospace Defense Command) Focus: This exercise was part of a series that simulated potential threats to the United States. On 9/11, the scenario involved simulated hijackings intended to test the military’s response to terrorist aircraft hijackings. Overlap with Real Event: Vigilant Guardian featured simulations of hijacked planes, which closely mirrored the real hijackings that were occurring in real time. As a result, when the real hijackings were first reported, there was some initial confusion, with personnel unsure if they were part of the exercise or an actual threat. This temporarily affected response time and clarity. 2. Global Guardian Organizer: The U.S. Strategic Command (STRATCOM) Focus: While Global Guardian was not explicitly a hijacking drill, it was a large-scale military exercise that involved readiness for various national defense scenarios, including response drills for possible nuclear and other catastrophic threats. Overlap with Real Event: This exercise required heightened military readiness and response posture, which helped prepare response teams to a degree but also contributed to initial confusion as some personnel considered whether the real events might be part of a larger exercise. 3. Northern Vigilance Organizer: NORAD Focus: Northern Vigilance was an exercise simulating a Russian aircraft threat that required relocating U.S. fighter jets to Alaska and Canada to monitor airspace for potential Russian incursions. Overlap with Real Event: This repositioning of fighter jets away from the continental U.S. led to some delays in scrambling jets to intercept the hijacked aircraft. However, this did not necessarily mirror the specifics of the 9/11 hijackings but contributed to the overall challenge in response. 4. Tripod II Organizer: FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) Focus: Tripod II was an emergency response exercise scheduled to begin in New York City on September 12, 2001, simulating a biological or chemical attack. Overlap with Real Event: While this drill did not coincide with the timing of the attacks, it brought additional emergency response teams to New York before 9/11. Consequently, some of the pre-staged resources were available to respond to the real event the next day, helping to expedite some emergency operations. Similarities and Challenges Created by the Drills Confusion in Real-Time: Because Vigilant Guardian included hijacking scenarios, there was initial uncertainty among some military personnel about whether the real hijackings were part of the drill or an actual attack. This created brief delays in response as it took time to clarify the threat. Resource Allocation: Exercises like Northern Vigilance, which repositioned aircraft and personnel, inadvertently impacted the immediate response capability in the northeastern United States. This decision likely affected response times to intercept hijacked planes. Communication and Response Impact: The presence of multiple drills contributed to communication difficulties across agencies. While drills often help streamline responses by setting up protocols, the simultaneity of multiple exercises complicated the clarity of orders and operations in the initial moments of the attack. The overlap between these exercises and the actual events on September 11 has been scrutinized in various official investigations and reports, such as the 9/11 Commission Report. The coincidence of these drills with the attacks, while noted, was ultimately deemed a product of scheduling and planning for general threat preparedness rather than a factor that could have prevented the attacks. I am reminded of Kramer with “Fusilli Jerry” saying “million to one shot doc, million to one!” But back to being serious because this is very serious, I am also reminded that this just happened last month — they sure seem to be practicing for something and terrified of some big event that they think is going to wipe them all out, don’t they: BREAKING: Lawmakers Pushing Constitutional Amendment For a “Mass Casualty Event” In Case Most Of Congress Is Knocked Out! BREAKING: Lawmakers Pushing Constitutional Amendment For a "Mass Casualty Event" In Case Most Of Congress Is Knocked Out! NOTHING CAN STOP WHAT IS COMING? Oh my... Yesterday we had President Trump literally buying his popcorn....and today we have Congress creating a contingent plan in case half of Congress suddenly gets wiped out! Gee, what could cause something like that? We'll get to that in a moment, first the headlines.... NEW - U.S. lawmakers plan for possible "mass casualty" event, proposing a constitutional amendment to replace members quickly and change various lines of succession in a "national crisis."https://t.co/1RAVKYLBbx — Disclose.tv (@disclosetv) September 24, 2024 Politico has more details about the urgency of passing a new Constitutional Amendment: Over the past 15 years, members of Congress have survived two near-deadly shootings, a train crash with dozens of them on board, and a Capitol riot that had hundreds of lawmakers fearing for their lives. Despite those incidents, the institution is wholly unprepared for a catastrophic event that kills or incapacitates multiple members — even if that hypothetical tragedy results in a major power shift: changing which party holds the majority in the House or Senate. Members of Congress themselves have proposed a host of solutions to the havoc a mass casualty could wreak. Those propositions range from a constitutional amendment allowing members to designate their own successors to simple rule changes to prevent violence from shifting party power. But a POLITICO review shows that both Republican and Democratic leaders, including chairs of key committees, have failed to significantly advance any of the ideas proposed since a mass shooting at a GOP baseball practice in 2017. That’s largely based on a reluctance to acknowledge the issue and a general resistance in Congress to changing rules. That strikes many members as foolhardy. “The number of rounds in one pistol clip can change the balance of power of the House or the Senate,” said former Rep. Brian Baird (D-Wash.), who took up the issue after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, when a hijacked plane came within 20 minutes of crashing into the Capitol. Lawmakers and their staff face real threats of political violence every day. Capitol Police opened 8,008 cases to assess threats against lawmakers in 2023, a 100 percent increase from 2017. The two assassination attempts against former President Donald Trump are blaring reminders of the ever-present dangers for public officials. The lack of a plan to respond to a mass casualty is particularly acute in the House: It has no mechanism to quickly fill unexpected vacancies, even on a temporary basis. Instead, a special election must be held to replace a member. That can take months. In the meantime, the House would have to operate shorthanded — perhaps extremely shorthanded. But doing so could leave a vast swath of the country unrepresented, meaning any action that Congress takes would be vulnerable to a court challenge. In practice, this could mean putting the full power of the chamber in the hands of members who, for example, boycott a State of the Union address or speech from a foreign dignitary only to see their colleagues who attend killed in a terrorist attack. Events like party conventions, caucus retreats and international member trips are also known potential targets. And there’s another worry: What if the slim congressional margins create an incentive for an act of political violence explicitly designed to shift control from one party to the other? “Part of the problem right now is someone with bad intentions could flip a majority for four months. And that’s horrifying,” said Rep. Derek Kilmer (D-Wash.), referring to how long it might take to fill vacancies through special elections, rather than immediate appointments. “And our reaction can’t be, ‘Well, that’ll never happen.’ Or, ‘Well, we’ll deal with that when the time comes.’ Because once the time comes, it’s too late.” ‘THE ANGEL OF DEATH’ Following multiple potentially deadly crises, House leaders in both parties have deprioritized or ignored the issue. No speaker since 9/11 — including Mike Johnson and his two predecessors, Kevin McCarthy and Nancy Pelosi — has put their political heft behind proposals to prepare the legislature for a catastrophe. And without such high-level support, plans to prepare Congress for a mass casualty event have fallen victim to jurisdictional scuffles and lawmaker bickering. Right now, the main idea to address the issue is a constitutional amendment that would require members of the House to submit a list of at least five possible successors to be tapped in the event of their death. If any member dies in office, the state’s governor would select an individual from the list to serve on a temporary basis until officials hold a special election for a permanent replacement. That proposal is being pushed by Kilmer and Rep. Brad Wenstrup (R-Ohio), who say it would remove an incentive for political violence and preserve the legitimacy of Congress in a crisis. Wenstrup was on the baseball field in Virginia in 2017 when a gunman took aim at Republicans. He used his military and medical training to treat then-GOP Whip Steve Scalise (R-La.) until paramedics arrived. “There were 136 rounds fired that morning, and he had names of Republicans and descriptions in his pocket,” Wenstrup said. “The idea is for us to have a situation in place where no one can get away with doing that as far as changing the balance of power.” “I worry that my friends and the Democratic caucus think I’m the angel of death,” Kilmer said, “because we’d be on a bus to a retreat, and I’ll be like, ‘does anyone know what happens if we die? Or if something happens to the bus?’ And they’re like ‘Kilmer? Enough already.’” A HIGH BAR Of course, approving a constitutional amendment would be incredibly difficult: It requires two-thirds support of each congressional chamber and then ratification from three-fourths of state legislatures. But there is a precedent for it. The 17th Amendment, enacted over a century ago, created a succession plan for Senate vacancies that empowered 45 states to allow the governor to temporarily appoint a replacement until an election is held. Five states still don’t allow appointments and require a special election. The House could try other avenues if a constitutional amendment isn’t possible. Some members have mulled changes to House rules designed to prevent a mass casualty from switching control of the chamber to the opposite party mid-session. Another idea would be to impose strict mandates on states to hold swift special elections after a mass vacancy. But advocates warn against such a piecemeal approach. Some in the chamber view the changes made after 9/11 as simply providing the veneer of solving the problem. As it stands now, the House can only fill its vacancies only by special election, which take an average of 136 days to conduct. If a crisis occurred, Congress’ role as a check on the executive branch could be severely diminished precisely when the federal government potentially needs to act.

Representatives Derek Kilmer (D-Wash.), Brad Wenstrup (R-Ohio), William Timmons (R-S.C.), and Emanuel Cleaver II (D-Mo.) are spearheading this effort. The proposal would require each representative to submit a list of potential replacements to their state governor. If a representative dies, the governor would appoint a replacement within 10 days. This measure aims to ensure continued representation and discourage violence intended to shift the balance of power in Congress. Rep. Kilmer: "We've seen a 300 percent increase in threats against members over the last seven years." However, the amendment faces significant hurdles, requiring a two-thirds vote in both houses of Congress and ratification by three-fourths of state legislatures. Critics also point out potential challenges in implementation, particularly regarding states' ability to hold rapid special elections. Despite these obstacles, proponents argue that the growing threat of political violence necessitates such precautions to safeguard the continuity of government. What do you think?

Joe Rogan’s episode of his podcast featuring President Trump has reached millions of viewers. On YouTube alone, the episode has 37.5 million views in three days. Will Kamala Harris seize the opportunity for outreach to that large audience? Rogan provided an update on a potential Harris episode. “Also, for the record the Harris campaign has not passed on doing the podcast. They offered a date for Tuesday, but I would have had to travel to her and they only wanted to do an hour,” Rogan said. “I strongly feel the best way to do it is in the studio in Austin. My sincere wish is to just have a nice conversation and get to know her as a human being. I really hope we can make it happen,” he continued.

The highly-anticipated interview with the Republican candidate has already racked up well-over 37 million views on YouTube since airing. Meanwhile, Rogan’s refusal to compromise with Harris’ team followed reports he’d been in negotiations for a sit-down with her for weeks — but they opted to pull the plug. Rogan confirmed during his gabfest with Trump that talks to host Harris on his platform were still ongoing but didn’t elaborate further. Trump quickly seized on the opportunity, scoffing at the idea of Harris sitting down for a three-hour interview – a common timeframe for guests on Rogan’s show. “Can you imagine Kamala doing this show? She’s be laying on the floor” Trump started. “If she did this kind of an interview with you, I hope she does, because it would be a mess. She’d be laying on the floor. Comatose. She’d be saying, ‘Call in the medics’.” Meanwhile, reports broke Tuesday morning that Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH), Trump’s running mate, will sit down for an interview with Rogan. “JD Vance seizes the opportunity, will appear on the Joe Rogan podcast as Kamala Harris is reportedly avoiding the show in Austin. The announcement comes after Rogan revealed that the Harris team did not want to use his Austin studio,” Collin Rugg wrote. “The show with Vance is set for Wednesday, according to CNN, and will be released later this week,” he added.

The podcast – called the Joe Rogan Experience – is seen as a way to reach young male voters, a demographic the Trump team has placed a premium on reaching given their strategy of trying to win the November by juicing their turnout. Vance’s scheduled interview at 9am would come just over a week after Trump sat down with Rogan for a three-hour recording that garnered tens of millions of views across YouTube and other online platforms. Trump’s rival, Kamala Harris, has publicized a possible interview with Rogan as part of her own attempts to win over young men, but it is in limbo. Rogan said on Monday that the interview with Harris was still under consideration but that he had refused terms placed on the conversation by the vice-president’s campaign. Watch the full three-hour episode with President Trump below:

The Nevada Supreme Court affirmed a lower court decision and ruled that election officials can count mailed ballots with no postmark received up to three days after Election Day. The Republican National Committee (RNC) and President Trump’s campaign committee filed a lawsuit attempting to block the counting of ballots without postmarks. BREAKING: NV Supreme Court rules that ballots without postmark arriving 3 days AFTER the election must be counted. A massive blow to election integrity. — End Wokeness (@EndWokeness) October 28, 2024 The Nevada Independent reports: In a decision Monday, five of the high court’s seven justices disagreed with the Republican National Committee’s (RNC) interpretation of the law at the center of the lawsuit and determined it would not be in the public interest to change election procedures this late in the cycle. Justices Douglas Herndon and Kristina Pickering agreed with the ruling but disagreed with the majority’s interpretation of the law in question. The ruling upholds a Carson City judge’s denial of the Republicans’ request in August to stop the counting of these ballots. It is the latest defeat in the barrage of lawsuits filed by state and local Republicans related to Nevada’s mail ballot laws and voter roll maintenance, none of which have resulted in GOP victories, though one is pending a ruling and the others are in various stages of appeal. In a statement Monday, an RNC spokesperson accused the court of ignoring the postmark requirement in state law and said it “has undermined the integrity of Nevada’s elections.” “Requiring ballots to be postmarked on or before election day is a critical election integrity safeguard that ensures ballots mailed after election day are not counted,” the statement said.

The decision served as a blow to Republicans, who argued the law should just apply to ballots whose postmarks are illegible. “If a voter properly and timely casts their vote by mailing their ballot before or on the day of the election, and through a post office omission the ballot is not postmarked, it would go against public policy to discount that properly cast vote,” Nevada’s majority opinion read. “Indeed, there is no principled distinction between mail ballots where the postmark is ‘illegible’ or ‘smudged’ and those with no postmark — in each instance, the date the mail ballot was received by the post office cannot be determined,” the court filing continued. The high court upheld the district court decision that the GOP lacked standing, saying the plaintiffs did not provide sufficient evidence that the mail ballots would be subject to voter fraud or that the security measures in place were inadequate to address concerns.
