Thanks for trying to sort it out. I am sitting out from the chaos of it for now. Reading a few things here and there that seem more well thought out, such as this.

I know this a detail and in no way meant to demean the broad scope and important points in your article...but why were there no agents on that roof? Too small a security force no doubt as well as incompetent as you point out. And media coverage documents that the shooter was seen a minute and a half before he opened fire, and that the shooter with a rifle was reported to police, before he opened fire, and that the police confronted him and retreated. There is no will to act in our law enforcement culture any longer, as the deplorable loss of life at the school demonstrated last year- while the police took shelter and refused to go in to save the teachers and children. In a culture that mandates harming our citizens, and parents willingly offer up their children for injury, lifelong disability and death, must we just wait until all the pusillanimous are destroyed by their own hand, and a few of the bravest and honorable as well?

All good questions, with disturbing implications

I wouldn't be surprised if sheer incompetence combined with a toxic and apathetic workplace culture by themselves resulted in this

Yet there still seems to be many details that are unlikely to all happen

Hopefully enough people had access to info on the inside that eventually it will leak out to the public

Maybe O'Keefe will get a juicy recording lol

I suspect they will eventually have to have a few sacrificial lambs because the failures were so monumental and elementary and utterly indefensible

My contention since March of 2020 has been that there will not be an election in 2024. The communists will not allow it. All the legal groundwork has been laid for the HHS secretary to declare a "health emergency," or for the WHO to do so, or for the regime to start a hot war with Russia, or to invent (or stage) a "domestic terrorism" threat. It will be decided that in-person voting is too risky; for "safety," the election will either be "temporarily" postponed or all voting will be done by mail-in ballots (which would have the same effect as outright cancelling the election). Even if the election is held and Trump wins, the subsequent pre-planned riots will provide the pretext for an "emergency" declaration that prevents the transition to a new administration.

But sure: We can have one more stab at acting like this is still the country most of us thought it was just five years ago. We can proceed with the expectation that there will be elections and a way to peacefully change direction. It might work, because nothing open to human choice is inevitable and people have free will. But the communists have done nothing but telegraph their intentions. They are telling us loudly and clearly that they're homicidal sociopaths in a death cult. It's past time for normal people to take them at their word and start making contingency plans. Personally I'd like to see secession as Plan B. Texas alone is the 8th largest economy in the world. Joined by Florida and a few other states, normal people "have it in our power to begin the world over again."

You will never make sense of it. This is the way of our world at present. If you do make sense of it, so what? Nothing is gonna change as far as government goes. ALL of them, the entire DC Swampfest, want us dead and gone. Otherwise none of this would be happening. The food supply would be secure, mRNA poisons would be outlawed, and top political figures would be extremely protected. I don't see any of it.
