Here's convicted felon and recently released from prison, Steve Bannon, and Kash Patel (who, I've read, is on the short list to head the CIA in Trump's regime).
This is EXACTLY the way fascists speak and threaten when they take power. Kash Patel, the next possible Director of Central Intelligence under Trump:
“We’re going to come after the people in the media who lied about American citizens, who helped Joe Biden rig presidential elections. We’re going to come after you.”

Buckle up. It's going to be a rough 4 year ride.
ReplyDelete"This isn't American"... but prosecuting former US Presidents and lawyers who defended him was?
ReplyDeleteRemember all those censored stories between 2021-5? The truth is out there.
Trump's been a lawbreaker all his life. He broke the law, was indicted, was found guilty and liable. That's how justice works. You are so marinated in Trump's lies, deceits, and lawlessness that you actually believe he deserves to commit crimes and get away with them.
DeleteRaw Story: "President-elect Donald Trump courted union voters during his successful 2024 presidential bid, and now Bloomberg reports that his incoming administration is poised to deliver a "body blow" to organized labor that has enjoyed a significant renaissance under President Joe Biden's administration."
DeleteBait and switch. Deceit and lies. Never trust a convicted criminal, adjudicated sexual assaulter/rapist who deceived and cheated on all three wives and even on his mistress with a porn star.
Trump is a liar deep in his dishonest bones.
The poor fools who trusted and voted for him will soon find out this truth.
“When criminals break the laws, the laws become “the deep state” to criminals.” — Malcolm Nance
DeleteAnd there it is.
Delete-fj again normalizing criminality in defense of fascism and authoritarianism.
As the promise of America (Soon to be Amerika) dies and agonizing death fir millions upon millions.
Nelson Mandela should never have been elected president of South Africa... he "had a record".
DeleteNelson Mandela was in prison because he fought against apartheid, a crime against humanity.
DeleteTrump was indicted, found guilty and liable by juries after hearing the evidence against him.
Mandela was a national hero in his country; Trump is a national criminal in America.
That you compare the two is just another piece of evidence of your unserious gibberish and determination to make a fool of yourself just to be a disrupter.

Lies are the building blocks of fascism.
This warning was issued in 2016, and now, a fortress has been built to shield their base from any unwelcome news.
We are living in fragmented realities, parallel worlds that no longer intersect.
Let me tell you something about what is going to happen to Kash Patel when he starts his witch hunt @CIA … like the Austrian government in Ibiza… videos of his phone calls to mistresses, rent boys & crimes, both real and imagined will magically appear. His financial dealings will splash all over European newspapers.
ReplyDeleteWhen he calls for criminal activity, not one person will say to him anything other than “Sir, we are constitutionally bound to not follow unlawful orders to operate on US citizens on US soil.”
He will be found in his corner office crying daily by his PSD about how the janitors spit on his floor.
He will have to call DoorDash out of dread his lunch is being spit in … he won’t be wrong.—Malcolm Nance
Now Amerika... is rapidly morphing into a Fascist Italy or a Nazi Germany.
ReplyDeleteThe power crazed blood thirsty soon to be Furher Trump and his radical power hungry toadies will fundamentally and thoroughly change this nation from a democratic republic into MAGA's apparently desired authoritarian Christian Nationalist nation where anybody, at any time, and for any trumped up reason can be prosecuted and imprisoned (or killed) on the whim of a narcissitic asshole without compassion or love for anything but his pathetic self. EFF Trump.
Fascism.

Authoritarians and Fascists are busy on the airwaves talking about their plans to subvert democracy. The hypocrisy is stunning.
ReplyDeleteThe over the top rhetoric is also on purpose, a test of the reactions of the American people - where will the fascists have to deploy resources to quell rebellion. And yes Les, the intent is to transform the USA into a copy of Russia, North Korea, or China, all regimes admired by the MAGAsphere. As Matt Walsh gleefully stated Project 2025 was the plan all along. (Yeah, like many of us didn't see THAT coming)
Here's a thought - no. We will not go quietly into that good night. Resistance is in our blood, it's who we are as Americans.
Each of us will have to decide how that resistance manifests.
I suck a firing a weapon (more likely to hit a friendly than the target no matter the amount of practice) so I'm doing what I do best - write comments and tell stories. I was thinking that maybe that wasn't enough when a story I tell came to me - the story of the Halfpenny Nail - I'm sure I've mentioned it here once or twice. TLDR version is this:
Because the halfpenny nail was lost the horse shoe was lost,
because the shoe was lost the rider was lost,
because the rider was lost the message was lost,
because the message was lost the battle was lost,
because the battle was lost the war was lost,
because the war was lost the kingdom was lost,
because the kingdom was lost the empire was lost,
all for the lack of a halfpenny nail.
I looked to Maddow for inspiration and she didn't disappoint. There is a clip where Maddow is talking about next steps after the election. Lots of great advice but what stuck out for me was the glee in her voice and eyes as she announced that We Who Resist get to be Pirates now!!!!
Oh yes please.
I'm going to need a new wardrobe.
I'm still trying to understand the minds of the people who voted to have a convicted criminal, adjudicated sexual assaulter/rapist to lead this country. Trump will be America's Orban, Bolsanaro, Berlusconi. People voted for those anti-democracy scoundrels as well.
DeletePS. Trump appointed a woman as his Chief of Staff, -- a first. I hope she protects herself from the Pu$$y Grabber-in-Chief, and has a talk with the 20+ women who've accused the lecher of sexual assault, including the woman he digitally raped in Bloomingdale's and was found liable for doing so.
‘Your body, my choice’: Women report rise in online misogyny following Donald Trump’s victory.
I can't think of a more apt descriptive of what the next Trump regime will be about.
Donald Trump spent nearly 10 years desensitizing the nation to decency, dignity, truth, integrity. and ignorance while normalizing greed, hate, racism, misogyny, crime, lying, cheating, division, and filth.
ReplyDeleteHe may be president next year, but, he will NEVER have the respect or love of decent, law abiding, honest, compassionate people. Nor will the greasy manipulative lying bullshit of his MAGA lie gain the trust or support when the sleep walking sheeple realize they got screwed as well.
No way to truly understand the minds that accepted Trump's lies, divisive instincts, racism, misogyny, and disgusting behaviors. Other than ignorance (wilfull or otherwise).
ReplyDeleteWe now know the road ahead will ultimately be fraught with problems and challenges that the greed machine of Trump, supporting billionaires, and price gouging corporations do not give one iota of concern to. When wild fires and the effects of climate change worsens perhaps the sleeping folks who voted Trump will realize what they actually did.
I note, hard working presumably intelligent people voted against their own self interest when they voted Trump again.
ReplyDelete"Whats the Matter With Kansas" now applies to the nation. People will vote against their own interests. The sole issue in these hard rock right states is
Deletethat their womenfolk will vote to overturn draconian abortion laws. The Founding Fathers are scratching their heads.
