The American Left – NAMELY Dem-Communists*** combined
with their Mainstream Media (MSM) propaganda machine††† including their violent Black Shirt-Masked wings of
Antifa and Black Lives Matter (BLM) – intends steal
the November 3 election by hook, crook and violence. That means an actual
American coup. If Trump fails to double to protect the election process I
suspect … well actually call for – American Patriot private citizens to stand
UP to confront the Dem-Communist coup attempt with equal vigor to preserve the
American Republic our Founding Fathers envisioned for Life, Liberty and the
Pursuit of Happiness.

How to Steal an Election [Pt 1]

In one of the greatest
public disinformation campaigns in American history, the "Transition
Integrity Project" (TIP) released a 22-page report in August 2020
"war gaming" (their term) four election crisis scenarios.... The
outcome of each TIP scenario results in street violence and political impasse.
·
The political power
resourced and generated from a document like the TIP report... introduces the
threat of terror and street violence (to the general population) as a
"normal" or "expected" outcome.
·
Here is what you will see,
hear and read in the next few weeks: "Yes, expect violence in the
aftermath of the election, because now that is the new 'normal.' Trump made us
do it...."
·
Who is paying the bills for
TIP and its affiliates?... No one does this for free, and someone (or some
entity) is paying the bill. Who?
·
What evidence is there of
awareness and preparedness on the political Right to confront and counter the
TIP (and other Leftists) and their plans to disrupt the election? Not much.
Time is short. The Left's threat of violence and subversion of the election is
real. How we respond is critical.
The political power
generated from a document like the "Transition Integrity Project"
report introduces the threat of terror and street violence as a
"normal" or "expected" outcome of the upcoming presidential
election. Here is what you will see, hear and read in the next few weeks:
"Yes, expect violence in the aftermath of the election, because now that
is the new 'normal.' Trump made us do it...." Pictured: Police officers in

How does one ensure their political allies are
ideologically synchronized, and know exactly how to disrupt a presidential
election? What about the "journalists" in the news media and the
babblers on social media -- how does one get them onboard with the planned nationwide
revolutionary disruption? Easy! Publish a report titled: "Preventing a
Disrupted Presidential Election."
In one of the greatest public disinformation campaigns in
American history -- the Left and their NeverTrumper allies (under the nom de
guerre: "Transition Integrity Project") released a 22-page report
in August 2020 "war gaming" (their term) four election crisis
scenarios:
1. A decisive Trump win;
2. A decisive Biden win;
3. A narrow Biden win; and,
4. A period of extended
uncertainty after the election.
The outcome of each TIP scenario results in street
violence and political impasse.
TIP organizers and leaders include Georgetown law
professor Rosa Brooks, Nils Gilman of the "independent" Berggruen
Institute in California, and John Podesta, the longtime fixer and handler of
the Clinton political dynasty. The nominally Republican members of group
include former Republican National Chair Michael Steele, journalist David Frum,
and former magazine editor Bill Kristol.
Publication of the TIP report is an information warfare
strategy employed for revolutionary political purposes. The strategy is
sophisticated and multifaceted. The TIP document:
§ Lays the groundwork for "consensus" news media and
social media narratives;
§ Rationalizes "unconventional strategies" for
generating maximum confusion and turmoil over "unfavorable" election
outcomes;
§ Projects accusations of unlawful/criminal conduct on President
Trump and those voting for him;
§ Co-opts the (already politically sympathetic) Washington DC
federal bureaucracy to support their strategy from the headquarters of every
department and agency of the Executive;
§ Relies (correctly) on a low-awareness/low-energy response from
the political Right to counter the TIP program.
Is it possible that the leadership of the American Left,
along with their NeverTrumper allies, are busy talking themselves into
advocating and promoting street violence as a response to a presidential
election?
The answer is: Yes.
In the opening paragraph of their "bipartisan"
report, TIP states: "We assess with a high degree of likelihood that
November's elections will be marked by a chaotic legal and political
landscape." Especially if they have their way.
An alternative to one of the war-gamed scenarios resulted
in the TIPsters advocating for the secession of Washington, Oregon and
California. Is there no sense of historical irony in the Democrat party?
Secession over an election? Again? [Blog Editor: “Again” alluding Dem Party
1861 secessionist Civil War after Republican Abraham Lincoln’s election in 1860.]
The single greatest irony of the TIP report is the
overwhelming use of "projection" in framing and characterizing
various claims against President Trump (and his supporters) as a means to
justify the Left's "irregular" plans to disrupt the election process.
Projection, as a political technique, is not a secret.
The American Left has never bothered to hide or disguise it, nor have they even
found it desirable to do so.
The covert portion of the projection technique is the
funding and organizational involvement behind the projection itself. Who is
paying the bills for TIP and its affiliates? This is a highly organized,
sophisticated operation with career political operatives calling the shots. No
one does this for free, and someone (or some entity) is paying the bill. Who?
The TIP report is itself an exercise of power. Political
intelligence information and public policy strategies are being fused through
the actions of TIP. That synthesis is a demonstration of real political power,
and it is being implemented in a written plan that contemplates street violence
to affect the outcome of the US presidential election. The political power
resourced and generated from a document like the TIP report can be used for
persuasion (through news and social media), indoctrination (of activists and
other "true believers"), and introduces the threat of terror and
street violence (to the general population) as a "normal" or
"expected" outcome.
Here is how the news and social media narrative is coming
together and what you will see, hear and read in the next few weeks: "Yes,
expect violence in the aftermath of the election, because now that is the new
'normal.' Trump made us do it. He made us take the election, because the old,
regular system just cannot be relied upon. That's why we had to publish our
report, so we could organize 'around' all of the regular processes. Obama
promised 'fundamental transformation,' and now, years later – we're finally
going to deliver."
What evidence is there of awareness and preparedness on
the political Right to confront and counter the TIP (and other Leftists) and
their plans to disrupt the election? Not much. Time is short. The Left's threat
of violence and subversion of the election is real. How we respond is critical.

How to Steal an Election - Part II

§ Through the release of the TIP report, the American Left has
established itself and its dishonest storyline as the official narrative of the
2020 presidential election. They have alerted the militant wing of their
movement to seize control of the lead-up to election day, to election day
itself, and all the way out past inauguration day. This is a campaign unto
itself -- not an event.
§ No single statement or particular recommendation is completely
outrageous... they support and amplify dubious premises: Leftist protestors are
non-violent while Trump supporters are agents provocateurs; Trump will misuse
the military and law enforcement to hold on to power; universal mail-in voting
poses no risk of fraud; finding new ballots weeks after the election is
completely normal; news critical of Biden is misinformation; a Trump victory will
be evidence of foreign interference, etc.
§ Now you understand how the Left intends to disrupt and steal the
2020 presidential election. You understand the psychological warfare techniques
being used right now to convince you (wrongly) of being demoralized and
weakened. You have been warned. The question for you and others in opposition
to the TIP plan is: What are you going to do?
Voter Fraud Ahead

Having established the Left's documented plan
to disrupt the 2020 presidential election, let's examine further some of the
information operations techniques now being deployed against the American
public to persuade and influence the election "season" ahead.
The very publication of the Transition Integrity Project
(TIP) report and the subsequent news media reporting about it are components of
psychological warfare within the broader information warfare campaign aimed at
spreading demoralizing rumors to Trump supporters. The goal is to break down
and weaken support before, during and after election day. Demoralized and
unmotivated supporters do not make their support for their candidate public.
They do not campaign in neighborhoods or post yard signs. They do not vote.
They do not volunteer at polling places. They become convinced their hopes are
a lost, and highly controversial cause. They do not wish to be called a racist,
or a hater, or identified with other fringe elements. They stay at home and
watch TV.
Having been psychologically conditioned (through the
COVID-19 pandemic) to withdraw, isolate, and lock-down -- on largely fiat
orders of various government officials -- many Americans will react to the
"irregular" and extra-legal tactics of the Left. The Left relies on
this reaction to suppress voter turnout and use varying forms of terror, such
as reprisals and the threats of reprisals, against those who do not cooperate
or who challenge the projected accusations detailed in the TIP report.
The TIP report is careful not to engage in sedition. They
are a whisper away from advocating violence -- but these are very sharp
political operatives that are all lawyered-up, so they speak in code. Here are
some examples for you to read between the lines:
§ "If there is a crisis, events will unfold quickly, and
sleep-deprived leaders will be asked to make consequential decisions quickly.
Thinking through options now will help to ensure better decisions"
§ "Planners need to take seriously the notion that this may well
be a street fight, not a legal battle; technocratic solutions, courts, and a
reliance on elites observing norms are not the answer here."
§ "Groups, coalitions, and networks should be preparing now
to establish the necessary communications and organizing infrastructure to
support mass mobilization."
§ "Military and law enforcement leaders need to be
particularly attuned to the possibility that partisan actors will seek to
manipulate or misuse their coercive powers for inappropriate political
ends."
No single statement or particular recommendation is
completely outrageous, except that, in the context of the report, they support
and amplify dubious premises: Leftist protestors are non-violent while Trump
supporters are agents provocateurs; Trump will misuse the military and law
enforcement to hold on to power; universal mail-in voting poses no risk of
fraud; finding new ballots weeks after the election is completely normal; news
critical of Biden is misinformation; a Trump victory will be evidence of
foreign interference, etc.
The voter psychological conditioning campaign, wherein
suppression and reprisal become a self-fulfilling prophesy, will not receive
news media or social media scrutiny. Those who raise the threats of violence
and reprisals will be termed conspiracy theorists, marginalized and dismissed.
Once again, who wants to be called a racist, a hater, or identified with some
other fringe elements?
Through the release of the TIP report, the American Left
has established itself and its dishonest storyline as the official narrative of
the 2020 presidential election. They have alerted the militant wing of their
movement to seize control of the lead-up to election day, to election day
itself, and all the way out past inauguration day. This is a campaign unto
itself -- not an event. Now you understand how the Left intends to disrupt and
steal the 2020 presidential election. You understand the psychological warfare
techniques being used right now to convince you (wrongly) of being demoralized
and weakened. You have been warned. The question for you and others in opposition
to the TIP plan is: What are you going to do?
