Pussy. That’s most of the leftists screaming about civil war- they want one, but expect others to do the fighting.

When things go hot, imagine guys like this waking up in the middle of the night with their throat cut after a visit from the MAGA fairy.

It turns out their latest martyr, Pretti, was actually an Antifa activist since the riots of 2020https://thepostmillennial.com/neighbor-says-alex-pretti-was-member-of-ice-watch-signal-chat. Karma’s a cast iron bitch.

Anyhow, what we are seeing now in America is our second Civil War. The left is (successfully, I might add) using 5th generation warfare. I believe they are winning.

They always tell you exactly who they are. They aren’t shy about getting their pogroms on, are they?

Over 70 million Trump voters, and they own about 500 million guns, give or take 200 million. I’m betting Karen won’t be going door to door. Here is a common core math problem:

If you want to go door to door, asking people if they are MAGA supporters and imprisoning them if they say yes, how many door kickers will get shot before your retarded ass runs out of people willing to ask the question?

This one is standing guard with a fucking Paintball gun.

If they want a fight, let’s just give it to them. Funny how Trump managed to get the left to support the Second Amendment

Thanks to no longer having a mortgage, I no longer need the $4200 per month I was paying out for a mortgage. That means I can afford to transition to a combination of PRN and travel work. To match my previous disposable income, all I need to work is a single 13 week travel contract and 3 days of PRN nursing per month, on average. So call it 75 workdays a year. A 13 week contract in the fall, and one week per month the rest of the year.

I am now semi-retired.

Pushing send on that email was harder than I thought it would be.

As a former Special Forces Warrant Officer with multiple rotations running counterinsurgency ops—both hunting insurgents and trying to separate them from sympathetic populations—I’ve seen organized resistance up close. From Anbar to Helmand, the pattern is familiar: spotters, cutouts, dead drops (or modern equivalents), disciplined comms, role specialization, and a willingness to absorb casualties while bleeding the stronger force slowly.

What’s unfolding in Minneapolis right now isn’t “protest.” It’s low-level insurgency infrastructure, built by people who’ve clearly studied the playbook.

Signal groups at 1,000-member cap per zone. Dedicated roles: mobile chasers, plate checkers logging vehicle data into shared databases, 24/7 dispatch nodes vectoring assets, SALUTE-style reporting (Size, Activity, Location, Unit, Time, Equipment) on suspected federal vehicles. Daily chat rotations and timed deletions to frustrate forensic recovery. Vetting processes for new joiners. Mutual aid from sympathetic locals (teachers providing cover, possible PD tip-offs on license plate lookups). Home-base coordination points. Rapid escalation from observation to physical obstruction—or worse.

This isn’t spontaneous outrage. This is C2 (command and control) with redundancy, OPSEC hygiene, and task organization that would make a SF team sergeant nod in recognition. Replace “ICE agents” with “occupying coalition forces” and the structure maps almost 1:1 to early-stage urban cells we hunted in the mid-2000s.

The most sobering part? It’s domestic. Funded, trained (somewhere), and directed by people who live in the same country they’re trying to paralyze law enforcement in. When your own citizens build and operate this level of parallel intelligence and rapid-response network against federal officers—complete with doxxing, vehicle pursuits, and harassment that’s already turned lethal—you’re no longer dealing with civil disobedience. You’re facing a distributed resistance that’s learned the lessons of successful insurgencies: stay below the kinetic threshold most of the time, force over-reaction when possible, maintain popular support through narrative, and never present a single center of gravity.

I spent years training partner forces to dismantle exactly this kind of apparatus. Now pieces of it are standing up in American cities, enabled by elements of local government and civil society. That should keep every thinking American awake at night.

Not because I want escalation. But because history shows these things don’t de-escalate on their own once the infrastructure exists and the cadre believe they’re winning the information war.

We either recognize what we’re actually looking at—or we pretend it’s still just “activism” until the structures harden and spread.

Your call, America. But from where I sit, this isn’t January 2026 politics anymore. It’s phase one of something we’ve spent decades trying to keep off our own soil.

The left is following the CIA insurgency manual to a tee. We are seeing an organized attempt at overthrowing the government.

Note that with this past shooting, the left is all singing the same song on the Internet and social media: he had a second amendment right to attack that cop while carrying a gun. It’s as if there is a single, approved script. This isn’t grassroots, it’s Astroturf.

A protest was organized, signs were made, and there were press releases about the planned protest, all in less than 7 hours in response to an event that happened over 1200 miles away. How are they this organized, and who is paying for it?

• At the scene of a drive by shooting with a police officer holding a shotgun standing behind you in case the shooter comes back
• running into an unsecure scene with multiple gunshot victims to save a 17 year old girl who was shot 15 times.
• the girl who was stabbed 7 times in the chest by her estranged boyfriend
• The time that took the worst toll on me was the baby that drowned. I bore the guilt of not being able to save him for years. I was in therapy for six months. It was crushing. I’m better now, and I have come to terms with it, but it’s still there.
• the Hurricane Katrina response.
• I was the triage officer for 1999’s tornado swarm in Central Florida. We spent over a week looking for bodies.
• The new mother with the 6 week old child who had a seizure. I spent years believing that I should have criked her. Maybe, if only, etc.
• Trauma on top of emotional trauma. Pastor Pete was there for all of it.

He didn’t need to push his religion on anyone. His faith, he would say, didn’t require agreement or validation from anyone. It wasn’t threatened by someone else who didn’t believe. He is all that I would hope a godly and Christian man should be.

.He didn’t retire until a few years after I did.

I recently got in a discussion of evolution with someone online. He demanded that I prove that evolution exists, then handwaved away every single piece of evidence. The only evidence he provided for his own beliefs was a book, written by men, and so he said, inspired by a god he couldn’t provide evidence for.

The Pastor would not have done the same. He was an honest man who didn’t need to attack the beliefs and ideas of others in order to validate his own ideals. All of us would be mush better people if we could emulate him. I know that I am not cut from that cloth, although I occasionally try.

Pastor Pete died just last week, I was just told yesterday by a friend. I haven’t seen him in a few years, but the world is a little bit less without him. He will be sorely missed, even in absentia.

“Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.”

They are using the Right’s own values as a weapon:

• Saying that real Christians would help the poor and the illegal immigrants- using your religion, that they themselves don’t share, as a weapon
• Saying you aren’t a “real” supporter of the 2A if you don’t start shooting ICE agents, even though they haven’t ever cared about the 2A themselves
• Wringing their hands over children being deported, even though they care so little about children themselves that they abort millions of them

They are posting dumb shit like this:

They don’t know how pistols work, but they will use that ignorance as a weapon against you.

I am to the point where I recognize this for what it is: The left has no guiding principles, except this one:

They want to win, they want to be in power, no matter the cost.

This is why I no longer care about rules, other than winning. It’s time to reflect on two basic truths:

1. You can have principles, or you can win. If one side is playing a game without rules, you are doomed to lose. Imagine playing Monopoly against the person that is the banker, and who is making interest free loans to himself as needed. You can stand by your principles, but in the end, those principles will see you lined up in front of a trench with a gun to your head. It’s going to get much, much worse.
2. All that matters is what you are willing to do, and what you are willing to put up with. This is no longer a philosophical disagreement. It’s a fight for survival.

That famous philosopher Johnny Depp (as Captain Jack Sparrow) said:

Will Turner: You didn’t beat me. You ignored the rules of engagement. In a fair fight, I’d kill you.

Jack Sparrow: That’s not much incentive for me to fight fair, then, is it?…The only rules that really matter are these: what a man can do and what a man can’t do.

Don’t let the left tie you down with irrelevancies. Rules are luxuries that only apply in games and civilized society. We are not in either.

Other videos show Pretti seemingly coming to the defense of a legal observer who was shoved to the ground by a federal officer. That officer then sprays Pretti with a chemical agent, repeatedly, before tackling him to the street along with other agents.

Coming to the defense of a “legal observer” while armed? That isn’t a protest. As soon as you participated, you are no longer observing, you are participating. Don’t get me wrong, I am not saying he doesn’t have a right to be armed, but if you are, then you engage in an altercation with someone who is also armed, you are no longer a participant, you have now crossed the line to being a combatant.

The left is having a field day, screaming that gun owners should be coming to their aid. Yeah, go fuck yourselves. You are on your own. In fact, I hope ICE shoots a few more of you. Did you give a shit about Viki Weaver? Ashli Babbitt?

On that topic, Tim Walz is doubling down. He has placed Trump in a position where he has to respond. Watch his stupid speech, where he says that he will be using the National Guard to “get these people out of here,” meaning Federal law enforcement:

We will soon see a sitting Governor order national guard troops to assist in engaging and capturing Federal law enforcement. Of course, everyone knows Trump can’t back down. That means this can only result in a few outcomes, and all of them are bad.

At this point, we are closer to a Civil War than we have been in more than 60 years.
