    Is this the beginnings of stocking up a front line for January 20th...

    since a few days after the election, things seemed to simmer down( or me just closing the blinders?)
    Is it the calm before the storm?

    is Trump calling on all his radical right wing nutjobs to man the front line and create a barricade to keep him in the white house?

    why cant he just slither into the night and fade away???

    im not for all facets of the socialist push for various political ideals, but im a bigger nonfan of this.
    This reaks of rallying the troops for the inventible confrontation Trump is seeking.

    I believe those pictures are from about a year and a half ago.


    ^^^Edit; That can't be right because there are no leaves on the trees and those in the picture are wearing Winter clothes.

    The White House has said he was there today for a Christmas tour and those pictures are from his Parlor account.

    From what I'm reading there was no "invite" and instead, he was there on a "public tour" and there was no "meeting" with the POTUS.

    The GOP leader in Texas today is calling for succession from the Union......Rush Limbaugh even fears civil war now...Trump is essentially destroying the country from within. The sooner Trump is tried for treason the better. It's time to hold this guy accountable and for the truth to stand tall...the guy has set a dangerous path moving ahead for our govt.

    i hope you are right, but then i tend not to trust most of what i read.
    If he was there for more than that and did get a meeting, it would be in their best interests to not let it go public. Especially if they are really trying to stockpile a blockade.
    If he was there, i doubt it was truly just for a tour.

    But he didn't sign up for a tour. They reached out and invited him.

    I would think that if there were and "invite" and a "meeting" Tarrio would have posted pictures of him and Trump together instead of just standing on the outside patio by himself.

    His claims are no more credible than Trump's.

    https://www.thedailybeast.com/proud...house-says-it-was-actually-a-public-xmas-tour


    "Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio said on Saturday that he had been invited to the White House, ostensibly while he was in Washington, D.C. to attend a series of rallies protesting the results of the 2020 election.

    His posts, which were made on the Trumpian social media site Parler, set off alarm bells over the possibility that a top figure with a far-right, neo-fascist movement had been granted an audience with top government officials.

    But the White House says that he was not, in fact, invited at all and was merely on a public Christmas tour of the complex.

    “He was on a public WH Christmas tour,” Judd Deere, a White House spokesman, told The Daily Beast. “He did not have a meeting with the President nor did the WH invite him.”

    Tarrio’s Parler post, accompanied by a picture of the north side of the White House, had the caption, “Last minute invite to an undisclosed location…” He then posted another photo from the south side balcony—both of which could conceivably have been taken on a public tour.

    There was no indication from his posts that he stepped foot inside the White House or had an audience with any official.

    The Proud Boys are a male-only organization that has a penchant for trying to stir up political violence, including at rallies like the one being hosted Saturday. Trump has infamously declined to denounce them in the past, telling members to simply “stand back and stand by” during his first debate with Joe Biden.

    The president hinted earlier in the day that he would be visiting the rallygoers on Saturday. In November, he drove through a similar rally on his way to go golfing.

    Tarrio didn’t respond to The Daily Beast’s request for comment."

    Honestly, if the loons on the right think they stand a chance against the US Government after Jan 20th, take a look at hte Branch Davidians.
