And he was doing so well!
Jack Posobiec comes crashing back to earth with the ol' pipeline nonsense.
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2021/02/if_nobodys_home_who_called_out_the_syria_airstrike.html
How, exactly, does airstrikes on Iranian-backed terrorists get you a pipeline through Syria?
By removing Assad from power?
He survived the Syrian Civil War. Nobody's removing him from power.
THE SAUDIS OPPOSE REMOVING LOCAL LEADERS FROM POWER.
They warned us repeatedly to NOT overthrow Saddam Hussein.
Assad is another Ba'athist. The dynamics in Syria were IDENTICAL to the dynamics in Iraq.
The pipeline story is idiotic.
For some people, EVERYTHING is nefarious.
Biden didn't approve the airstrikes.
Trump did.
They killed terrorists trying to kill Americans in Iraq.
"Bring them home," you say.
Sure, but in the meantime, we just let them have rockets dropped on their heads?!
Why is it that the same people who oppose airstrikes in Syria were calling for Trump to become a military dictator?
You can't diagram this level of illogic and confusion.
We don't bomb people for fun.
You understand that Iran is planning on a large-scale attack in order to test Biden, right?
Killing Iran's pet terrorists is not a bad thing.
I've PROVEN to you that tons of totally bizarre military stuff is happening, and Trump is operating totally under the radar.
American Thinker says that OBAMA ordered the airstrikes.
HE HAS NO STATUTORY POWER.
There's a reason Harris was kept out of the loop:
It's because there IS NO loop.
The US military would never carry out this sort of operation on its own.
I've figured out at least one way that Trump could still be president, but it could also be that he's the DE FACTO president, sharing power with the armed forces.
Remember:
It would be legal and constitutional, given that there was no government in place.
Biden is SCREWED.
Now his own people hate him, and the other side is successfully branding him a raging socialist.
Biden can't say a word.
NONE OF THE DEMOCRATS can say a word.
By striking down Trump, they made him more powerful than they could imagine.
Panic time.
Ha.

@ThomasWic
The best is yet to come!
They just handed Trump not only more popularity, but many reasons to royally screw them all over.
And we are suppose to be lead to believe that the democrats the the party of intelligence.
HAHA!
According to the yard signs in my neighborhood, they "believe in science" and, around the election, one actually said (not kidding), "We believe in facts."
@lp_1985 @Rooibos @ThomasWic
Would these be the same fact-based folks who completely ignored the BIden-Harris platform, voted for them, and then screeched like howler monkeys when the platform started being implemented?
They are admirably consistent.
Yes, the exact same ones.
Sounds to me like they would buy a bridge under a lush cool river in the Death Valley...
@Rooibos @lp_1985 @ThomasWic
I got one to sell them
I'm going to push back on anyone that says Biden is not POTUS and Trump is at this moment
The 20th Amendment clearly states that the POTUS has to be inaugurated on Jan. 20th and that is set in stone
Biden was inaugurated and he is POTUS.
Other evidence. He has signed EO's that have taken affect
If Biden is not POTUS, how could he sign EO's that have authority? He couldn't
What about Congress voting on Biden's cabinet?
All for show? COME ON MAN
@WorkTooMuch
Look at you, being employed by the Palestinian government and all, oh la la.
How is me stating that Biden is POTUS which is a provable fact have anything to do with the Palestinian government?
Go ahead, push all you want because we know you don't know to push anything.
I'm just stating facts...if you want to refute anything I said, go ahead
Your facts as you think you know them, so f'ing what?
@WorkTooMuch @ThomasWic What does that same Document say in terms of Treason, or Acts of War?..
You are referring to suspend writ of habeas corpus.
Congress has to do that and it's very unclear on exactly what can be suspended
@WorkTooMuch @ThomasWic
I believe with regards to a stolen Presidential election, with the help of High-Ranking US Dignitaries, Big Tech, MSM, AND Many Foreign Countries..... there may be some VERY different terrain that is being navigated....
Explain why EO form 2018 regarding foreign interference hasn’t been Biden rescinded? That should have been number 1.
I could probably list 50 different pieces of evidence that Biden is POTUS
It is what it is
You didn’t answer my question. I’m not being hostile. But one would think that would be the first to go.
I don't know why Biden hasn't done that
@WorkTooMuch
Fraud vitiates everything.
I imagine you would have received more informative responses if you had worded your post differently.
It's just BS that certain people get a pass for spreading 100% falsehoods
@WorkTooMuch @rosem - Go back to Gab, you utter and complete poultroon.
Stating Biden is POTUS is not poltroon
It's is a 100% verifiable fact
How can Biden sign an EO that goes into affect if he isn't POTUS
How could Congress vote on his cabinet members if he isn't POTUS
@WorkTooMuch @ThomasWic so the obvious question from all Thomas's followers would be:
how long and how in-depth has your research of Donald J Trump been going on?
Trump isn't God and can't just accomplish everything he wants
I am an expert on the US Constitution and b/c of that I can positively say Biden is POTUS
Yes, Madison and Washington and Hamilton and Franklin and Jay and Jefferson etc. set up our constitution so that as long as you can get your guy to show up and repeat certain words on inauguration day then all (related) crimes committed leading up to that point are expunged in perpetuity. Just need to say those magic words.
@WorkTooMuch @ThomasWic I concur to the points that for the impeachment Trump would not lie that they can’t impeach a private citizen so he is not POTUS now. However we have discussed many emergency powers and the OATH Trump took to protect this country. If the election was fraudulent then he has a duty to fix that and not let them take over the country. There must be a government in office that looks like it’s real for Americans not to panic therefore Biden is there. Who knows? I trust Trump!!
There's a few accounts on here that always ask these same questions and those questions are always worded the same way...
I wonder why?
Think that would be “effect”. Either way, wrong
Here’s the key sentence in Thomas’ thread.
“It would be legal and constitutional, given that there was no government in place.”
This means a shadow presidency is both legal and possible...thus a lot of noise by Biden’s “administration” with no teeth.
There's no Constitutional or legal scenario where you can have 1 shadow POTUS and another POTUS that both have authority
Trump strikes.

Biden takes the public hit.
Very ingenious.
That's a two-fer. Not sure how to spell it.
@joebennett Not alone on that but yeah interesting times for sure.
@joebennett @redwhitebluedude @ThomasWic A two-fer it is. Biden's getting HAMMERED by the left and the right both for bombing Syria. He knew nothing about it—it was absolutely NOT his call. But he wanted the job!
Sympathy? For him? For any of them? NONE.
@ikarith @redwhitebluedude @ThomasWic
In a weird way I do. They are using the guy. He should be somewhere else, close to family, closing things out or just hanging out all day in pajamas. The guy is done and they are using him like a piece of trash. I never liked his work, but everyone is redeemable.
@joebennett @redwhitebluedude @ThomasWic I see it as him making his bed and lying in it. You could argue that he's no longer there enough to really know how he's being manipulated, but he does have lucid moments. He's aware he is now "president", he chose to allow this to happen.
If this is elder abuse by those in his life, he chose them, shaped them, made them who they are. If I were passing judgment, he'd get what all pedophiles deserve, then all who sell out their country for money.
@ikarith @redwhitebluedude @ThomasWic
Well, playing devil's advocate is always a risky business.
How about if I just disagree. I'm Catholic, and I believe if you are redeemed, that's it. I'm not saying he is or isn't, it's just there, an opportunity and it's a single lane path, In my little humble opinion. You came alone, you go alone, hopefully naked both ways.
@joebennett @redwhitebluedude @ThomasWic I don't believe "once saved, always saved" is a Catholic doctrine.
The sum of our choices determine our ultimate fate. It's us and God, and God wants the same for all of us. It's our choice though, and our choices have natural consequences. Senility absolves him his actions now, but not those he's done before.
It seems quite Christian to pray God grant him a moment of clarity so that he may choose to truly repent before the end.
@joebennett @redwhitebluedude @ThomasWic I should also note that any of us in possession of our faculties may, if we are on a wrong path, choose another at any time. But I think we often don't see the choice we have, even if others do.
How long has it been since Biden saw an alternative to the frankly evil path he's been on for decades? It _is_ right to pray that he be given that chance, and I can do that.
I just can't feel bad for his choices putting him in this position. He earned it.
@ikarith @joebennett @redwhitebluedude @ThomasWic Since he has dementia he won’t suffer long enough. I know that’s a rough way to go but he won’t remember what he did and won’t be ‘paying’ the same way. Call me cold hearted but it’s true. He’ll be in lala land with jello.
@Kat @joebennett Hell is forever. (And you should not want that for him, but he seems on the way to getting it!)
@ikarith @joebennett I mean it in that other people will be in jail and know everyday why they are there. Biden won’t know where he is, (doesn’t always know now),
@Kat @joebennett A lot of people aren't going to see the inside of a cell who deserve one. If the larger objective is achieved … so be it.
The real problem and threat is global. Biden, Pelosi … comparatively small potatoes.
I will only comment on this and one other thing you are saying:
I don't believe "once saved, always saved" is a Catholic doctrine.
It isn't.
you wrote:
"The sum of our choices determine our ultimate fate"
Catholic dogma would say not so to this, you can attain redemption on your death bed if you seek redemption and receive it. The key is, if you receive it, and there in lies the rub.
@joebennett If you are on your deathbed, truly repenting of your sins and seek redemption … that seems the necessary thing.
For example, if one has committed major sins and reflect upon his life (as men do when they're near its end) and calls for a priest who has burned out, is no longer as holy as a man of the cross ought to be, and refuses to hear the man's confession out of spite … is the man damned for his sin?
I'd be more worried about the priest's soul than the penitent's in such a case.
@joebennett I'm sad to say that I have met a priest who I believe meets that description. And I know those I've been close to have encountered them.
Men of the Church are still men, and they may carry the faults of men.
This is just my opinion, but I don't think the Priest has anything to do with it.
They are a handy reminder,
You go alone,
Humility is required.
@joebennett You suggested a man on his deathbed may seek redemption, but emphasized the IF in being granted it, which is why I mentioned a priest at all.
If one truly seeks redemption—as opposed to mere pardon—he has chosen to reject sin. If Jesus died for the sins of all who do this and seek him, is there much room for doubt? Unless your point was a lack of humility and a sense of entitlement?
(I think we're on the same page, but not yet sure.)
@ThomasWic
And I love it 😀
