they say "we are talking about threats from both the 'far left' and the far right. There are not currently, nor have there ever been, "far left" elements in the US military capable or willing to take part in such a coup. There are no rogue leftist elements in the FBI or law enforcement as a whole who are a danger of such involvement. The most liberal or progressive members of Congress, or the most batshit crazy anti-establishment leftist on any village board here in Vermont, are neither inclined, nor are they capable, of leading an armed insurrection.

The threat for the sort of uprising Jones and Wilson are talking about is exclusively a far-right Christofascist one. This is both-siderism of the most ridiculous sort, designed I guess to make the discussion palatable to Wilson's former GOP allies.

Know your enemy, that is the key starting point to any military endeavor.
