If US security was represented as a great dam holding back a historic flood, it would be a Chinese built Temu dam held together with paper mache and ramen noodles, ready to snap in half and kill a million people downstream.  Today there is no security:  The public operates on blind faith that no one will take advantage of the vast weaknesses built into the system and government officials hide any risks associated with their policies. 

But what are the sources of the dangers headed our way?  Why is 2025 becoming more and more prominent as an inception date for an attack?  Here are the reasons why the next year is ripe for a large scale event…

Open Borders Lead To Threat Saturation 

“Homeland Security” is a misnomer; the head of DHS, Alejandro Mayorkas, openly admitted to a room full of border patrol agents this year that over 85% of illegal immigrants apprehended at the southern border are released into the country.  Mayorkas originally claimed the release rate was 70% in an interview with FOX News, only to raise that number to 85% when agents pressed him during the private meeting. 

Reports indicate that at least 400,000 known criminals have crossed the border illegally during Joe Biden’s presidency, and 13,000 of those immigrants were convicted murderers.  What we don’t know, however, is how many terror suspects and foreign agents have also entered the US in the past four years.

The DHS releases limited data.  Migrants that get a hit on the terror watch list are held and cataloged, of course, but with wide open borders and the White House running interference there’s no way to know how many slipped through. 

The political left argues that “no terror attacks have happened on Biden’s watch”, but these are the same people that originally denied the existence of Venezuelan gangs currently taking over apartment complexes in multiple cities across the country.  

The saturation of illegal migration will inevitably lead to a terror event in America, it’s only a matter of time.  It may not happen on Biden or Kamala Harris’ watch, but they will have been the catalyst that made such attacks possible.

Geopolitical Tensions And Open Borders Don’t Mix

I believe an attack is inevitable in 2025 even with Donald Trump in the Oval Office, primarily because of the geopolitical brush fires being ignited across the globe right now.  There is also always the looming danger of false flag events designed by covert actors trying to trick the public into placing blame on the wrong culprit.

The war in Ukraine and the expanding wars in the Middle East involving Israel are both dependent on US support and possibly future military involvement on the ground.  It’s fair to say that without US involvement, both of these wars would end rather quickly.  One can debate the ethical necessity of America engaging in proxy conflicts or the need for the US to protect certain allies and assets, but a lot of foreign elements view the US as the root cause of their pain. 

They also know the easiest way to attack the US is through the doorway that the current establishment has left wide open on the southern border.     

The US has been hit with a mass immigration storm while also embroiled in at least two regional proxy wars that have the potential to expand into world wars.  Why wouldn’t Russia, China, or multiple nations in the Middle East use that weakness to their advantage?  People that want the US to send troops to Ukraine or Israel could also perpetrate an attack that falsely leads back to Russia or Iran.   

I continue to argue that America has no reason to be involved in the majority of foreign entanglements and that we should stay out of these conflicts entirely.  But we are where we are, the dominoes have already been set in motion and guess where that leaves us?

Conservatives Inherit Disaster While Leftists Go Weather Underground

Think about it, Republicans inherit all the messes that Joe Biden and his handlers created – Economic, political, social, and geopolitical.  There will also be considerable motivation for establishment elites to create chaos from thin air while conservatives hold governmental power, and this presents a third domestic threat which will definitely arise in the wake of a Trump presidency:  Leftist activists.

The goal of the progressive establishment when it comes to attacking conservatives is to create so much instability and fear that conservatives feel compelled to set aside their principles and the Constitution in order to restore order.  In this way the left hopes to “prove” that conservatives are the “fascists” they often accuse us of being.  

For the past several years conservatives have also been labeled “domestic terrorists” bent on civil war, but it’s actually the progressive left that engages in the majority of civil unrest and violence in the name of political expediency.   

The first time leftists were enraged by a political loss and took to the streets to riot, most conservatives and even the Trump administration erred on the side of constitutional flexibility.  The problem is, leftists have a habit of exploiting free speech rights as a springboard for mob intimidation.  Also, most of the riots took place in Democrat controlled states and cities where local officials defended the violence and tried to block any intervention. 

The political left believes that mob violence and looting is a form of free speech and “reparations” for perceived injustices.  They feel completely justified in their behavior and that makes them exceedingly dangerous.  If you see the mass burning of random neighborhoods as an “ends justify the means” situation, then you can probably convince yourself that any crime is acceptable. 

This trend of terrorism as activism is likely to evolve beyond simple mobs in the next round.  In other words, under a new Trump Administration we should expect smaller Weather Underground-like groups among progressive activists; groups that will engage in terror attacks.  The two assassination attempts against Trump this year support this hypothesis.   

To summarize, there are four distinct instigators of political violence all active going into 2025: 

• Organized criminal gangs crossing the border as migrants.
• Foreign agents and terrorists slipping into the US using mass immigration as a cover.
• Leftist activists radicalized to believe they are righteous in their violence.
• Establishment elites and covert agencies creating false flag events.

The types of attacks we face comprise a wide spectrum and I fear that conservatives may very well throw support behind a martial law scenario should the situation break out the way I think it will.  Infrastructure attacks would be the most devastating (and would not require a high level of effort or sophistication); a lot of people may see military intervention as the best option.

I would argue that this is exactly what the establishment wants.  They want the liberty movement to abandon our foundations in the name of security – They want us to take shortcuts that lead us down an authoritarian path.  If we are to increase the safety of the American populace it’s going to take years of work to fix the mess that progressives have left behind.  No shortcuts. 

We’ll have to close the borders tight (the one place where a national guard presence makes sense).  We’ll have to deport millions of illegal migrants already in the country.  We’ll have to reduce our presence in global proxy wars.  We’ll have to secure communities through localized efforts.

Most importantly, should violence break out, community participation in defense is paramount.  The locals need to be prepared for grid down, for rioting, for random attacks.  It’s the general public that needs to be ready.  Regular civilians are the people that will be there when disaster strikes and they must be empower to take action. 

When a terror attack takes minutes to achieve, regular people who are there when it happens have seconds to respond.  Until we can repair the damage done to our national security over the past four years, the public is the first and most important line of defense.
