	Good news or bad news?
	Well, it doesn't matter.
	You're going to get a little bit of both.
	I'm not sure if this is good or bad news.
	But today, today just isn't Flag Day.
	It's not just President Trump's birthday.
	It's something darker.
	Something coordinated.
	a nationwide dress rehearsal for chaos.
	And while millions of patriotic Americans plan to celebrate the red, white, and blue, a web...
	Destruction.
	What's coming is an organic protest.
	It's precision-orchestrated, choreographed destabilization.
	And June 14th wasn't picked by accident.
	Behind the scenes, what many are calling a rogue shadow network, is mobilizing operatives across dozens of American cities.
	Protests, riots, civil unrest, call it what you want, doesn't really matter.
	But the timing is too perfect.
	The logistics are too calculated.
	This is engineered anarchy.
	Already in Los Angeles, the Trump administration has had to take decisive action.
	Deploying the National Guard and even the Marines to control open riots and looting and arson and mass attacks on police and private property.
	Looks like 2020 deja vu all over again.
	But this time, excuse me, this time, popcorn husks.
	This time, the stakes, my friend, are higher.
	And there's an election on the horizon, a president who won't bend, and a public that's seen this movie before.
	And here's the kicker.
	Legal scholars and media talking heads are wringing their hands, asking if Trump has formally declared an insurrection.
	Spare us.
	Please, please.
	When the country's on fire, do you really care what subsection of the Insurrection Act is invoked?
	It's nice, in view of what we went through with January 6th, that the president's constitutional duty is to preserve the republic, uphold the rule of law, and protect the American people.
	If local officials...
	Then the federal government must act.
	It's that simple.
	So let's stop pretending that we're dealing with peaceful marches and heartfelt activism.
	What we're seeing is organized revolt.
	And these aren't protesters.
	These are political mercenaries funded by NGOs, dangerous NGOs, with unclear loyalties and overseas backers.
	This is regime change.
	This is plain and simple.
	This is regime change.
	And it's kind of like that logic turned inward.
	Now, for decades, America exported instability.
	We backed coups, color revolutions, Arab Springs, peaceful uprising.
	We did it through our intel, through our CIA, from Ajax and Kermit Roosevelt.
	We did it in every region from Eastern Europe to the Middle East.
	But now the playbook has come home.
	And the tactics that once toppled foreign governments are being used upon us and against us.
	Manufactured outrage, psy-ups through TikTok and X, I still call it Twitter.
	Pre-positioned protest gear, pain agitators, bricks and pallets ready to be hurled, and a compliant media and its machinery ready to sanctify it all.
	Now let me be very clear here.
	You don't have to love Trump to understand what's happening here.
	You don't have to wear a red hat or fly a Trump flag.
	All you need is a shred of honesty and two working neurons.
	Because this goes beyond partisanship.
	This is about whether the United States is allowed to have a president who puts America first.
	Or whether our elections and laws are just theater.
	While real power, real power is held by global financiers and NGOs and media cartels and the Soroses and the G7s and the World Economic Forums and those guys.
	The digital overlords.
	June 14th is a test, my friend, not just for Trump, not just for conservatives.
	It's a test for every American who still believes in borders.
	And law and family and all that corny stuff.
	You know, faith and sovereignty.
	And here's where it gets personal.
	Those of us who've criticized U.S. foreign policy for years, who've condemned the warmongering and the lies in Iraq and the drone killings, the funding, our own funding of terrorist groups under the guise of democracy promotion, we now find ourselves saying something we never thought we would.
	Thank God for the Marines.
	Because when the fire spreads from foreign soil to front yard, when the tactics used to topple Assad or destabilize Orban, as many people would like, are unleashed in New York or Atlanta or St. Louis, you realize that reform, no matter how righteous, is meaningless without order.
	And without peace, there is no platform for dissent.
	And without law, there's no liberty.
	And without borders, physical, legal, moral, all of them, there is no country.
	The events surrounding June 14 are a stress test, and many are going to fall for it.
	Watch as mayors fold.
	Watch as blue state governors, these twits, these quizlings, do nothing.
	Watch as CNN and MSDNC glorify destruction of democracy in action.
	And legacy newspapers and publishing units and installations about to collapse under their own weight of uselessness.
	Watch them publish glowing profiles of the people setting fire to our cities as brave protesters.
	Then watch how quickly they condemn Trump for doing what any president must do, enforce the Constitution.
	It's all going to happen.
	This is the paradox of our age.
	The same people screaming and yelling fascism when Trump deploys or utilizes troops are silent when activists burn federal buildings.
	Why?
	They call it resistance when anarchists block highways and attack police stations and loot businesses.
	But they call it authoritarian when the president restores calm.
	Does this make fun, sense rather to you?
	Or fun?
	What does that mean?
	Here's the good news.
	The American people, you, us, we see through it.
	And we've had enough.
	We remember 2020.
	We remember Chaz.
	Remember that?
	We remember the media gaslighting and the weak Republicans who did nothing.
	This time it's different.
	This time the gloves are on.
	And whether or not Trump uses the term insurrection or seditious conspiracy is a technicality.
	What matters is that he acts.
	And he has.
	And he will.
	And he must.
	Because remember something.
	Without decisive leadership, this country will not survive what's coming.
	So what can you do?
	First, stay alert.
	These uprisings don't happen in a vacuum.
	They are coordinated.
	Watch for the signs.
	NGO involvement.
	University campuses serving as nerve centers.
	Prescripted media narratives from companies designed to promote the narrative.
	Second, support local law enforcement.
	The men and women holding the line are doing so without the backing they deserve.
	Pray for them.
	Stand with them.
	They were going to be defunded a while back.
	Remember this one?
	Speak out when they're smeared.
	Third, Speak truth unapologetically.
	The days of police silence are over.
	The days of polite courtesy and quiescence are over.
	If you see something, say something.
	If you hear lies, confront them.
	If your school, workplace, or community is taken over by this madness, draw the line.
	And finally, dear friends, understand this.
	We are at war.
	Not a war of bombs and bullets yet.
	But a war of narratives, institutions, and a war of and against our sovereignty.
	The nation is not always waving a flag or, you know, in unison, and neither is the enemy.
	See, sometimes it wears a suit.
	Sometimes it has a press pass.
	Sometimes it carries a sign that says peace while throwing bricks through your window.
	Do not be fooled.
	Fooled.
	Fooled.
	I can't speak today.
	Do not be fooled!
	Or fold.
	Do not be cowed.
	June 14th will be remembered.
	How it's remembered is up to us.
	The time for watching is over and the time for standing is now.
	Pay attention to what I said, my friends.
	Be active.
	Be alert.
	Be alarmed.
	Be aware.
	Be vigilant.
	Be smart.
	Be informed.
	Be a part of Lionel Nation.
	Join us.
	Join our quest.
