     So, the former president of the United States is calling on states to take up arms to support Texas in its standoff against the federal government. That’s about as close to calling for civil war as you’re going to get without actually saying the words.

     This is a situation that could spiral out of control in a heartbeat. I would not assume it’s just bluster. #politics #texas #trump #immigration

     When I am President, on Day One,
     instead of fighting Texas, I will work hand in
     hand with Governor Abbott and other Border
     States to Stop the Invasion, Seal the Border,
     and Rapidly Begin the Largest Domestic
     Deportation Operation in History. Those Biden
     has let in should not get comfortable because
     they will be going home.

     This is Trump's only shot to not die in prison. He has to take over the country. His cult of idiots will support him. Biden needs to federalize the national guard in Texas and order any governors who have mobilized guard units to be arrested for insurrection, ASAP.

     One thing that I think a lot of people may be overlooking is that Abbott’s (armed) defiance of the federal government — now backed by Trump and 25 GOP governors — is exactly what right-wing extremists have been waiting for. And training for. I have been writing about this exact situation for 6 years (see below); extremists have been preparing for this day much longer. This is almost biblical for them.

     And sure, Trump fans may cosplay civil war a lot, but when the governor of Texas is openly defying the federal government, and the former president is calling on states to send their national guards to help Texas stand against the federal government — and 25 states have pledged to actually do so — that’s not cosplay anymore. This is a real threat.
