Drums Along the Potomac
2016-11-06
[American Thinker] Watching the events of last week online I’m reminded of Drums Along the Mohawk a story about a couple in New York’s Mohawk Valley during the Revolutionary War. The New York frontier settlers fought off Tories, Indians, the British with a small militia, muskets, and grit until peace was restored and they could return to farming.

A revolutionary war is being fought again in New York and D.C., this time between the administration’s corrupted Department of Justice, the compliant press and the Democratic Party on one hand, and the New York Police Department, the U.S. Attorney Preet Bahara, and the FBI on the other. The issues at stake are not all that different: the right of free people to govern themselves. The weapons are not muskets, but the Internet.

Background: The Wheels Coming Off the Hillary Bus

We’re just 2 days away from the election and having worked at times in bureaucratic organizations I can imagine the turmoil in the vast Clinton machine. The constant releases of hacked emails by Wikileaks in such a top-down operation surely has hamstrung their work. People who work there are either searching frantically for their names in the emails, gossiping among each other about what is found there and worrying about what is to come. The head of the DNC, Debbie Wasserman Schultz was replaced, only to find the new head Donna Brazile was herself the subject of scandal -- leaking debate questions she learned were going to be asked of Hillary.

It’s not only Wikileaks -- Project Veritas’s exposure of the Creamer-headed vote-rigging and thuggery operation must have put a crimp in its 50-year-long Midwestern vote-stealing scheme. People who worked for him have to be unsure of their next steps and with the Wisconsin attorney general promising an investigation, it must be harder still to operate as usual.

Huma Abedin, Hillary’s right-hand gal of many hats, is on the sidelines as her husband’s computer with its 650 thousand emails is being examined by local cops and the FBI for evidence of child pornography and national security leaks. The Clinton Foundation slush fund is under scrutiny for pay-to-play corruption and tax fraud and their many employees, recipients, and donors must be scouring their records and getting unwelcome law enforcement inquiries.
Con't.

#3  Pretty comprehensive look at what is being described as a counter coup. Feldman doesn't take it into account, but maybe writer Matt Bracken has that there is a lot going on amongst Patriots who are watching this. Patriots considering doing Patriot stuff. As I have said before, repeatedly, regardless of who wins the White House we are looking at a nationwide sh*t show.

#2  A book before a movie and a pretty good starter novel. Got your German Flats, General Herkimier, fightin, groping Hessian and a fair amount of history. Highly recommended.

#1  Oh, "Drums Along the Mohawk" was just a movie. "Drums Along the Potomac" is yet to be made--the script is still being written. In the meantime for your watching, there is a Tom Cruise movie to be released in 2017 called "American Made;" otherwise referred to as Mena--something about Barry Seal, cocaine, "Slick" and a little town in Arkansas.
