Enemy of the State, Arlington Road, and Manhunt: Deadly Games (Richard Jewell Atlanta '96 Olympics bombing)...

All of those are relevant to what's unfolding today.

All of those movies are in essence "docu-dramas" based on reality, with the central
message being how the government has continually used patsies and set ups, and
how the FBI and our justice system in general has never been interested in justice,
but more about controlling the political narrative often knowingly convicting the wrong
man... because it fits the desired political agenda which always includes immediacy.

People seem to have forgot how the FBI's famed "crime lab," was literally shut down
because of massive evidence of falsifying evidence over years and years...

The FBI over the last 20 years has become stacked at the managerial and leadership
level with political leftists and without any degree of exaggeration, is today, a literal
reincarnation of the Cheka, NKVD, Stasi and SS, being a complete and total
politicly weaponized secret police who's main job is to protect the criminals in DC,
cover up their crimes, and persecute and prosecute their political enemies.

For America to recover to anything remotely close to what most of us grew up in,
we need a literal political revolution and are going to have to put a lot of people
in prison for long, long periods of time...

Imho, that will only be able to be done in Nuremberg II types of trials.

Realistically, I'm not sure if that's possible any longer. It would take a "State of Emergency,"
basically martial law," and military tribunals because our judicial system from the local, state
and federal level, including SCOTUS - is completely corrupt.

It will be an almost unimaginable challenge to turn this around, but the choice is either
to fight on your feet, or live on your knees...

Or to leave (with virtually no where to go abroad, especially once America falls).

Not to be too conspiritorial, but Trump passed an Executive Order to close the
open back door (especially if launched from south of the border) America has
to an EMP attack, and virtually nothing was done, they've just drug their feet on this.

Which to me, means they're keeping this as an ace in the hole. A weakness our enemies
all know that is easily exploitable, even to a significant degree by "low tech."

I think the Deep State keeps it open to launch it themselves when needed and then use
the plausible deniability of blaming it on Russia, or Iran (not China, until when (not if)
they take China down as well).

I hate to say this, but if Trump was successful in winning a 2nd term and went after
the Deep State which he undoubtedly would have done... we would have been hit
by an EMP to collapse the country.

The vast majority of Trump support is in the middle heartland of America, which is where
they could most effectively use it as a political weapon to crush their opposition without
affecting themselves.

What to do about that?

Make it a primary focus of your preps, build a frost-proof well and pump to access
drinking water, as well as alternative ways to heat your home and cook. Large
LP gas tank, wood stove and heat etc, along with a rainwater watch catch system,
water and food storage, solar power etc.

The problem is if you're in a suburban or even many rural environments, you don't
stand much of a chance to remain being the lone man standing for much over a week
or ten days... here, the solution would only be long term if you are significantly remote
and off grid - which is not practical for 95% of people. So do what you can do,
and realize that being a lone wolf in an EMP oriented collapse is only possible
being far, far off grid and even then, hopefully part of a well-connected group.

So, what's the solution?

In a regional EMP attack, I believe it will be having an "Overland Vehicle,"
with auxiliary long distance fuel tanks, being able to take a bug out load and
your family on a 600+ mile non-stop trip to areas with power... and to be able
to do it immediately upon the first sign that this was an EMP, because most
roads will be impassable within half a day. Obviously a large 4x4 SUV or
King Cab style Truck with a camper etc, able to traverse terrain that cars
cannot is important. A pro-set up is not cheap, probably price prohibitive
for most, so having a well organized, always staged and quickly loadable
bug out system in place using a van or traditional SUV, but being able
to get out of town within a couple of hours where traditional roads are
still useable would be key. And to do that, recognizing that it is an EMP
attack and not a massive power outage means non-traditional communication
ability is key...

Comms, are key here, with Ham radio and short wave radio a must.

Lots to think about, prioritize things based on your situation, there is no
one-size fits all solution. But, what was once a low risk probability, is
no longer low risk... because this is no longer the America we knew.

That's the thing about great films, music, etc., throughout history. They anticipate. Sometimes by decades.

Need look no further than Dylan's, Hard Rain's Gonna Fall. Final verse, one of light bulb cluster in the noggin' that lite up in late 2007 to power intense search & move to deep rural WV in 2008. Final verse says it..

And what will you do now, my blue-eyed son?
And what will you do now, my darling young one?

I’m a-going back out ’fore the rain starts a-falling
I’ll walk to the depths of the deepest dark forest
Where the people are many and their hands are all empty
Where the pellets of poison are flooding their waters
Where the home in the valley meets the damp dirty prison
And the executioner’s face is always well hidden
Where hunger is ugly, where the souls are forgotten
Where black is the color, where none is the number
And I’ll tell it, and speak it, and think it, and breathe it
And reflect from the mountain so all souls can see it
Then I’ll stand on the ocean until I start sinking
But I’ll know my song well before I start singing
.

Bob Dylan – A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall Lyrics | Genius Lyrics

"Knowing YOUR song well" = doing all the other DD/research to find where to go "...for the rain starts a-falling."

Sometime will post more about seeing him sing this live, late Summer 1963 in an almost empty Gaslight Cafe. Zero exaggeration. The most charismatic ever saw in my life. Life changing experience nobody could ever forget...
