Excellent video. Much of what he talked about has grown to the point, that the next step is "crises". He clearly describes what happens when we reach that stage. Everyone ready?
A few days ago you featured yet another proposal to restrict ammunition. A warning from decades ago:
N: But what about the National Guard?
C: Oh that was more difficult at first glance. [this was written in 1939] But the federal government owned and controlled the arms used by the Guard. Under the guise of replacement practically all the ammunition in the hands of the Guards was called in the week before his coup. Of course, had it been realized that all the ammunition in all the Guards was being called in at once, it would have caused trouble, but control of the nation's communications plus the fact that each separate order was classified as a confidential military order allowed him to get away with it.
from Robert A Heinlein, For We The Living New York (2004) page 67 of the Pocket Books paperback.
Robert A. Heinlein, when he wrote this (about a year before his first story publication) was a retired (for medical reasons) Naval Officer. Much of this book seems to be a lame rehearsal for his 1960 best-seller, Stranger In A Strange Land, which propounds several dubious alternative possibilities, but this paragraph stood out.

This is exactly what Lawlor learned as a student in USSR.
He is doing his best to enact the authoritarianism, crimes, and obscenity promoted by the Soviet Union in target nations, in this country.
He and his ilk must be told "We have our own system of doing things, a democratic republic, under our Constitution, and we will not accept yours."
If Lawlor insists, he can be a big wheel in Cuba, North Korea, or another adherent of that failed ideology.
The methods used to destabilize nations are just as pertinent as when the lecture was given.
Lawlor is nothing but a KGB stooge "Марионетка КГБ", sent back here to cause unrest in our country.
