House with ‘Dump Trump’ sign gets shot up in Ohio as election tensions soar

Future Factions of the full on war:

Status Quo Nostalgists

This will perhaps be the most powerful faction. People who want to return to a Bush/Obama era style of supposed status quo. People who profit from international arms sales and dislike stock market disruptions including valleys and spikes.

Hard Core Conspiratorialists

Trump / Alex Jones followers. Fueled by talk radio and local TV and whatever types of social media platforms they can maintain. Pumped with the rhetoric of extermination (think Rwanda) and heavily armed and weapon proficient. They will have some alliance with law enforcement and the military but not as much as the Status Quo Nostalgists and will probably be the second most powerful faction.

Mexican Reclaimers

Mexican identity politics types who will want autonomous rule of land stolen from Mexico through the Mexican–American War and other past events. Likely to receive funding from drug cartels and armed with a genuine historical beef this will likely be the third most powerful faction

Black Reparationists

They’ll be armed, ready to fight, have a legit beef will demand full reimbursement for everything stolen from them. 4th in power. Maybe first in ruthlessness.

Anti-Elitist/Anti-Intellectual/Anti-Science Folk

Loosely organized. Not very prone to fight. Occasionally overlapped and allied with Hard Core Conspiratorialists

The Revolutionary Left / Neo-Maoists

Antifa anarchist communists almost exclusively white. Surprisingly well organized but not sufficiently armed. Will probably focus on assassinations and terrorism. And old fashioned arson and vandalism.

Natives

Yes, they’re still here and do have funding through hotels and casinos. Any further attempts to encroach on their autonomy will be met with violence.

Lone Wolves

They’ll still be shooting up schools and crowds and blowing up buildings with fertilizer and all that.

Foreign Agitators

They’ll be doing what the CIA has been doing to them for ages. Stirring up ****. Infiltration. Using violence and framing other groups to fan the flames and selling arms and drugs.

Eco-Fascists

Basically terrorists with good intentions. Similar tactics as The Revolutionary Left / Neo-Maoists.

White Supremacists

Fringe but aggressive. Not territorially expansionist but will keep their area white with deadly force.

An unknown gunman fired into a crowd gathered at a Saturday afternoon burial service of a teenager who was fatally shot by a Florida sheriff’s deputy earlier this month, officials said.

The deceased teen’s mother was wounded by the bullet, Florida Today reported.

The Arizona Republican Party asked its Twitter followers this week if they would be "willing" to die to overturn President Trump's election loss.

On Monday, an activist associated with the "Stop the Steal" movement, which promotes baseless arguments that Democrats "stole" the election, tweeted, "I am willing to give my life for this fight."

In response, the official account for the Arizona branch of the GOP quote tweeted the sentiment, adding, "He is. Are you?"

Bull****. Just rhetoric. Easy to say. Let's imagine, for some incredibly crazy reason, the Supreme Court said ok we'll over turn the election and give it to Trump. Just call in to the prison and we'll give you the lethal injection. What? You said you'd be willing to give your life... think he'd go? As we say here in Ireland, he would in me bollox!

The chair of the Texas Republican Party appeared to float secession after the Supreme Court shot down a lawsuit led by the Lone Star State seeking to overturn the results of the presidential election.

Texas GOP chair Allen West rebuked the high court in a statement, saying that "law-abiding states" should "form a Union" after the decision throwing out the lawsuit from Texas.

**** yeah! #Texit
