“Amerika” — suggesting a Russified name for the United States — is an American television miniseries that was broadcast in 1987 on ABC. It starred Kris Kristofferson, Mariel Hemingway, Sam Neill, Robert Urich, and a 17-year-old Lara Flynn Boyle in her first major role. “Amerika” was about life in the United States after a bloodless takeover by the Soviet Union. Not wanting to depict the actual coup, ABC Entertainment president Brandon Stoddard instead chose to set the action of the miniseries ten years after the event, focusing on the demoralized American people a decade after the Soviet conquest. The intent, he later explained, was to explore the American spirit under such conditions, not to portray the conflict of the Soviet takeover.
Described in promotional materials as “the most ambitious American miniseries ever created,” Amerika aired for 14½ hours (including commercials) over seven nights, and reportedly cost US$40 million to produce. The program was filmed in Toronto, London, and Hamilton, Ontario, as well as various locations in Nebraska — most notably the small town of Tecumseh and Milford, the setting for most of the action of the series. Donald Wrye was the executive producer, director, and sole writer of Amerika, while composer Basil Poledouris was hired to score the miniseries, ultimately recording (with the Hollywood Symphony Orchestra) eight hours of music — the equivalent of four feature films.

Pelosi Hires Retired LtGen Russel Honoré for the Investigation into Jan 6
Russel Honoré (pronounced ON er ray
That 9-11 style investigation
Speaker Pelosi tapped retired Army LtGen Russel Honoré (pronounced ON er ray) to head the investigation. But he is well known partisan who has busily condemned Trump and other GOP members of Congress for some time.
He even has a logo for his new station in life. A short trip through his Twitter feed gives us clues as to his views on everything from making sure you’re masked up to retweeting the idea that Senators Ted Cruz and Josh Hawley were “in on” the January 6th debacle and should be run out of DC. At one point he even said former Acting Director of Homeland Security, Chad Wolf should also be “run out of DC.” Whether it’s his own tweets or ones he “retweeted,” there are problems in here
FEMA joins the circus
FEMA says that the money it gets for combatting “terrorism” will now be targeted toward domestic terrorists because the “threat environment” has evolved. And they haven’t named a target, which is disturbing. The Democrat narrative that all Trump supporters are “terrorists” comes into play here.
“Since 2002, DHS has allocated more than $54 billion to states and territories to prevent and prepare for the threats that terrorist organizations pose. Almost 20 years later, the homeland security threat environment has evolved. As the threats evolve, so, too, must the grant programs intended to prepare communities for those threats.”
Who are the targets of the investigation? GOP Senators? Trump supporters? Trump himself? Or real extremists? It appears the Democrat narrative is the one this “investigation” will follow. To coin a phrase, these liberals are “stuck on stupid.”
Johnny Smith@JohnnyS2946You’re right General. We have to address the fact that these insurgents, terrorists or whatever name you give them have infiltrated the highest ranks of the military, police, and other L.E.Os. This is why there was a lack of security & enforcement. Sadly, it will happen again.
what say general, would this be a good place to start your bullshit investigation?
Exposing The Plan To Siege the US Capitol On January 6th, 2021
What happened on January 6, 2021 was part of a well prepared contingency plan to disrupt President Trump’s chances of contesting the election results riddled with accusations of fraud.
I previously exposed some of these plans on the website sunriseexposed.com, where I even show a tactical map that has the US Capitol as a primary target:

Subversive agent provocateurs hijacked the grassroots effort to support the President.
Ali Akbar, or Ali Alexander, who has a longstanding reputation as a political dirty trickster and agent provocateur, sidelined the ‘Women For America First’ events, taking credit for being the organizer while mislead donors to give him money.
When you click the donate button, it directs you to Ali’s personal links for ‘donation’ which had no affiliation with the official events nor the event organizers.
It became apparent Ali was planning to “storm the Capitol” in Washington, DC on January 6th using other state capitols for practice dry runs while dragging in innocent participants as fodder for eventual accusations.
Video on Main Link
Ali had another website, which has since been taken down – www.wildprotest.com
Ali never had an actual stage or event set up at the listed location.
However, the “come here” location on the ‘Wild Protest’ map coincides with a nearby location where alleged ‘Proud Boys’ agent provocateurs gathered prior to storming the US Capitol.
John Sullivan, another agent provocateur, who affiliates with Antifa and Black Lives Matter, also planned to infiltrate the ‘March for Trump’ event on January 6th. On his website ‘Insurgence USA’ Sullivan had an invitation for other agitators to disrupt the ‘March for Trump’ events.
John Sullivan has a brother, James Sullivan, that affiliated with Ali and the Proud Boys. These brothers allegedly organized events having Antifa, Black Lives Matter and Proud Boys show up to escalate opposing political groups towards violence while simultaneously capturing it all on camera for a Netflix documentary.

John Sullivan recorded himself inside the US Capitol with documentarian Jade Sacker. Sullivan’s own footage shows him breaking windows while trying to provoke others into more violent actions such telling others “we gotta get this shit burned”.
According to multiple sources that know the Sullivan brothers and have met their adoptive father “Jack” Sullivan who self-proclaims to be involved in “psyops”, or tactical psychological operations, and was attempting to work through his sons to infiltrate political movements.
Meanwhile, Proud Boy’s leader Henry “Enrique” Tarrio was outed by Reuter’s investigative journalists as being an FBI informant.
Just days before the January 6th riot at the Capitol, Tarrio was arrested for bringing two high-capacity rifle magazines to Washington, DC. He was picked up for allegedly burning a Black Lives Matter banner in DC on December 12, 2020.
While in custody he was questioned about social media posts instructing Proud Boys to go to Washington, DC on January 6th dressed “incognito” in all black like Antifa.
On January 6th, there were several radical groups participating in the riot at the Capitol such as Proud Boy’s, Black Lives Matter, Groypers, Antifa and white supremacist groups all working together mutually creating mayhem.
The riot was a who’s-who of social media influencers know for instigating trouble, none of whom attended the ‘March for Trump’ rally where President Trump spoke that day. Yet, we are supposed to believe the so-called ‘insurrection of the Capitol’ was President Trump’s fault?
Whether it was leftist agitators or rightwing extremists, both executed a plan to interfere with the legitimate process in the Joint Session of the House and Senate debating a contested election as allotted by the 12th Amendment of the Constitution.
Had the riot not happened, President Trump, his legal teams and ‘white hat’ hackers would have been able to present their alleged evidence of election fraud.

Judge Rules Arizona’s Maricopa County Must Turn Over 2.1 Million November Election Ballots to Senate
A judge on Friday ruled that Maricopa County must provide some 2.1 million ballots from the Nov. 3 election to the Arizona state Senate and allow access to its election equipment to conduct an audit.
Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Timothy Thomason ruled that subpoenas issued by Arizona’s state Senate are valid and should be enforced, and he disputed arguments from Maricopa County officials saying the subpoenas are unlawful. The county previously stated that multiple audits have been sufficient and said ballots should be sealed.
“The Court finds that the subpoenas are legal and enforceable,” Thomason wrote (pdf) in his ruling. “There is no question that the Senators have the power to issue legislative subpoenas. The subpoenas comply with the statutory requirements for legislative subpoenas. The Senate also has broad constitutional power to oversee elections.”
He argued that the “Arizona legislature clearly has the power to investigate and examine election reform matters,” adding that senators can “subpoena material as part of an inquiry into election reform measures.”
The move was hailed by Republican legislators in Arizona.
Arizona Senate President Karen Fann, a Republican, told news outlets after the judge’s ruling that their move was “never about overturning the election, it was about the integrity of the Arizona election system.”
“This was always about voter integrity and the integrity of the voting system itself,” Fann added.
State Sen. Warren Petersen, a Republican, confirmed that the Senate will go through with a “forensic audit” of Maricopa’s Nov. 3 election results. Maricopa County, which includes Phoenix, saw more than 2.1 million people vote during the last election.
But Bill Gates, the vice-chairman of the Maricopa Board of Supervisors, wrote Friday that the county has “nothing to hide,” adding that officials have “conducted three fully transparent audits, including two forensic audits by independent, qualified and outside Vote System Testing Laboratories.”
“I trust the Senate will be completely transparent with the public as Maricopa County has been,” he added. “From the beginning, the County sought clarification from the court. The court has ruled. I look forward to working with the Senate to provide them the information they are requesting.”
The subpoenas were issued following allegations of voter fraud and irregularities made by former President Donald Trump and surrogates including Rudy Giuliani.
A dispute over the election began when former Senate Judiciary Chairman Eddie Farnsworth held a hearing to question county officials about the election. Farnsworth and Fann then issued several subpoenas, which prompted Maricopa County to issue a lawsuit. The subpoenas were re-issued in January.
House Democrats ask Biden to give up sole power to launch nuclear bomb
Over thirty House Democrats are asking President Biden to consider renouncing his authority to launch nuclear weapons.
In a letter sent Tuesday but publicized Wednesday, 31 lawmakers led by Reps. Jimmy Panetta (D-Calif.) and Ted Lieu (D-Calif.) urge the commander in chief to “consider modifying the decision-making process the United States uses in its command and control of nuclear forces.”
“As president, two of your most critical and solemn duties are the security of the country and the safeguarding of its nuclear arsenal,” the letter reads, noting the president’s sole authority to order the use of nuclear weapons assures keeping them under civilian control.
“However, vesting one person with this authority entails real risks,” Panetta and Lieu continued.

“Past presidents have threatened to attack other countries with nuclear weapons or exhibited behavior that caused other officials to express concern about the president’s judgment,” the two said, referencing former President Donald Trump’s very public feud with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.

In terms of alternatives, the two California Democrats suggested a number of options.
One would be to require that the vice president and speaker of the House of Representatives concur with the president’s decision to strike.
Another option would be requiring certifications from the secretary of defense that the strike order was valid, as well as the attorney general that it was legal.

The two lawmakers also suggested requiring a Congressional declaration of war and specific approval from Congress on the strike.
The last option they suggested was creating a permanent council of Congressional leaders that would hold regular deliberations with the president and their administration on national security issues.
That council would be required to be consulted before the launch of any nuclear weapon.

“While any president would presumably consult with advisors before ordering a nuclear attack, there is no requirement to do so,” the letter states, “The military is obligated to carry out the order if they assess it is legal under the laws of war.”
“Under the current posture of U.S. nuclear forces, that attack would happen in minutes.”
House Republicans on the Armed Services Committee are slamming the effort, with GOP Conference Chair Liz Cheney (R-Wy.), Committee Ranking Member Mike Rogers (R-Al.) and Subcommittee Ranking Member Mike Turner (R-Oh.) releasing a statement decrying the idea as dangerous.
“The President of the United States must have the exclusive ability to command and control our nuclear deterrent. Democrats’ dangerous efforts suggesting a restructuring of our nuclear command and control process will undermine American security, as well as the security of our allies,” the three said.
“These proposals, if enacted, would leave Americans vulnerable, destabilize the nuclear balance, and shake our allies’ confidence in the nuclear umbrella. Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping would cheer if the United States adopted such a unilateral restriction,” they continued.

Comment: Not even sixty days in to the 46th Presidency and your “team” is discussing relinquishing your power and the control of the nuclear codes to a “committee”. WOW !! Assume this is an indication of the diminished mental health of Biden or an internal power struggle is taking place.
