• Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

🔥 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐓𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐝 𝐓𝐨 𝐅𝐥𝐢𝐩 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐩𝐭 — 𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐦𝐩 𝐅𝐥𝐢𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐝 𝐈𝐭 𝐁𝐚𝐜𝐤.

People are already trying to spin Donald Trump’s response to that ad as “sociopathic,” “unhinged,” or “dangerous.”

No — let’s slow down and look at what actually happened.

The people in that ad weren’t “warning” anyone. They weren’t defending democracy. They weren’t offering legal clarity.

They were 𝐧𝐮𝐝𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐠.
𝐇𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠.
𝐓𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐫𝐲.

They crafted a message designed to push someone — specifically 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐲 — toward crossing a constitutional line while pretending to be innocent bystanders “just reminding everyone of the law.”

And this is where you see their true nature:

The modern Left has become the 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐬𝐭 𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐛𝐮𝐥𝐥𝐲 — the cowardly kind.
The kind that never throws a punch themselves.
The kind that hides in the shadows while manipulating their own base to do the dirty work and take the fall.

Because if anyone in the military took that ad seriously and acted on it?

𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐛𝐞 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫.
Not the life of the people who crafted the ad.
Not the politicians hiding behind lawyers and PR teams.
Not the activists posing as “guardians of democracy.”

No — the soldier would take the fall.

Just like every riot, every staged protest, every “resistance” stunt where the Left whispers “Do it…” from the shadows and then screams:

“𝐇𝐞’𝐬 𝐚 𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠!”
“𝐇𝐞’𝐬 𝐚 𝐝𝐢𝐜𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫!”
“𝐇𝐞’𝐬 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐜𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐲!”

And it gets worse:

For more than a year, the Left-wing media cried that if Donald Trump were elected, they would all be fired, silenced, or imprisoned.
They swore their newsrooms would be raided.
They swore democracy itself would end.

Yet here they are —
𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐚 𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐥𝐞 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐝, 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐚 𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐥𝐞 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐝 —
still sitting in their studios, still screaming about the next terrible thing Donald Trump is supposedly going to do to them.

You almost have to wonder if they even realize how foolish they sound.
Then again… probably not.
Their base still believes them.

Now let’s go deeper.

This ad wasn’t just manipulative — it was crafted with the precision of a guild made of 𝐬𝐨𝐜𝐢𝐨𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐬, 𝐩𝐬𝐲𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐬, 𝐥𝐚𝐰𝐲𝐞𝐫𝐬, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐩𝐬𝐲𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐬 — people who know exactly how to weaponize suggestion without giving a direct order.

The heart of their message implied that soldiers could decide for themselves whether an order from the Commander-in-Chief was unlawful.

And they very carefully left out the only truth that matters:

𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐝𝐮𝐚𝐥 𝐬𝐨𝐥𝐝𝐢𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐝𝐨 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐠𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐝𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐝𝐞 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐥𝐚𝐰𝐟𝐮𝐥.
That authority lies with the courts, Congress, and the military justice system.

They omitted that on purpose.

Because confusion was the weapon.
And pushing someone else across the line was the goal.

We all saw it.
And Trump absolutely saw it.

So in one clear, controlled, perfectly calibrated comment — knowing it would explode across the internet — he stated the actual law:

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐝𝐞𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐬𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐨𝐧 — 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐝𝐞 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡.

He didn’t threaten anyone.
He didn’t escalate.
He didn’t rage.

He clarified.

He held up the mirror and essentially said:

“𝐈𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐜𝐫𝐨𝐬𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮’𝐫𝐞 𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐭, 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐞 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐞𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐬 — 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐥𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐭𝐨𝐨.”

That’s why the Left panicked.
That’s why the media immediately flipped the script and pretended Trump was “trying to kill them.”

Same playbook:

“𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐦𝐩 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐧 𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐦𝐢𝐞𝐬.”
“𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐦𝐩 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐰 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐋𝐞𝐟𝐭 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝐜𝐚𝐦𝐩𝐬.”
“𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐦𝐩 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐲 𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐜𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐲.”

Meanwhile, the only people who have ever been silenced, censored, fired, attacked, or shot at were 𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐑𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭.

Their propaganda used to be subtle.
Now it’s frantic, sloppy, and desperate.

And once again, they tried to flip the script.
And once again, Trump handed it back — calmly, clearly, and with the truth.
