Per The Atlantic article; “When Trump canceled a visit to the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery near Paris in 2018, he blamed rain for the last-minute decision, saying that “the helicopter couldn’t fly” and that the Secret Service wouldn’t drive him there. Neither claim was true.

Trump rejected the idea of the visit because he feared his hair would become disheveled in the rain, and because he did not believe it important to honor American war dead, according to four people with firsthand knowledge of the discussion that day. In a conversation with senior staff members on the morning of the scheduled visit, Trump said, “Why should I go to that cemetery? It’s filled with losers.” In a separate conversation on the same trip, Trump referred to the more than 1,800 marines who lost their lives at Belleau Wood as “suckers” for getting killed”.

Speaker Mike Johnson: Radical Right Wing Extremist

Steve Schmidt reacts to Republicans electing Louisiana Congressman Mike Johnson Speaker of the House of Representatives.

 

Mike Johnson is a Radical Right Wing Republican Extremist & Religious Fanatic. His views and beliefs on just about everything is totally out of step with the majority of Americans. He’s an election denier and Trump Supporter who claims Trump won the 2020 election, voted to overturn the 2020 Election, said January 6 was a legitimate protest, claims Covid is a Hoax, claims Vaccines are Dangerous, a Climate Change Denier who claims climate Change is a Hoax, a Religious Fanatic who embraces Christian Nationalism, says the United States is a “Biblical Republic” and does not believe in the separation of church and state. He’s against Same Sex Relationships & Gay Marriage, Anti LGBT Rights, Author of 3 bills to Ban Abortion Nationwide, wants to Cut Medicare, Medicaid & Social Security, and has said Social Security is a Ponzi Scheme.

All 220 Republicans voting for this Extremist (supported by Trump) tells you everything you need to know about today’s Republicans and why ALL need to be voted out.

The fact that a Radical Right Wing ideologue like Mike Johnson has been made speaker, when his views (& the Supreme Court) is out of step with the majority, is another example of what a mess the United States Government is, which has enabled Republicans to seize minority rule by lying, cheating using gerrymandering, theft of seats by illegal redistricting and the Anti-democratic Electoral College which made Republicans Trump & Bush President, when they got the LEAST votes.

Trump, Johnson duo is the ‘authoritarian meets zealot buddy movie’ that no one needs

“It doesn’t matter that Donald Trump sees this through the prism of self-preservation, and Mike Johnson I guess sees it as his biblical calling. Their goals are the same,” says Jen Psaki. “It all has the makings of basically an authoritarian meets zealot buddy movie that really no one needs in this country.”

 

Mike Johnson is one of the Treasonous Republicans who voted to overturn the 2020 election.

In November of 2020, former Vice President Joe Biden was elected to be the 46th President of the United States by overwhelming margins in the popular vote and the Electoral College. Despite Biden’s decisive victory, Donald Trump and other prominent Republicans commenced a daily assault on the legitimacy of the election that included filing dozens of frivolous lawsuits seeking to have the results invalidated.

Hundreds of Republican elected officials across the country amplified these false claims, and in doing so, they helped incite the January 6 attack on the Capitol building, which left five people dead, including one Capitol Police officer.

And even after this deadly insurrection, 147 Republicans (which included Mike Johnson) still voted against certifying the election.

 

The courageous Reconstruction Congress implanted into our governing document safeguards to cleanse from our government ranks any traitors and others who would seek to destroy the Union. To that end, Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment stipulates that:

“No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any state, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any state legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any state, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof”. (The above text was taken verbatim from Rep. Bill Pascrell (D-N.J.) letter to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi dated December 11, 2020)

During the four years Trump was President, House Republicans pledged their loyalty to Trump above our country. In 2019, every house Republican refused to vote to impeach Trump for his numerous violations of his Oath of Office and his abuses of power. They have proven over and over again that they are unreasonable, condone lawlessness and are unfit to hold ANY position in elected public office.

ALL Republicans who voted against certifying the 2020 Election are unfit to hold public office and should be REMOVED from Congress.

 

Mike Johnson was one of the 106 Republican House members who signed onto the amicus brief to overturn the 2020 election.

Republicans Pick Election Denier And Trump Loyalist To Be New House Speaker

Republican Representative Mike Johnson from Louisiana is the new Speaker of the House, and the GOP could not have made a worse choice for the country. After a tumultuous few weeks, Republicans finally coalesced around the nominee after a blessing from Donald Trump, and that’s not the least bit surprising. Johnson served on both Trump impeachment defense teams, fought to NOT certify the 2020 election results, and even filed an amicus brief in Texas to toss out more than 100,000 votes in the 2020 election. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses the dangers of this fringe lunatic now leading the House.

 

During his sermon at the Christian Center in Shreveport, Louisiana, Johnson said: “Some of you were around in the late 60s, you remember that what that was about? The counterculture revolution, Woodstock, and drugs and peace and free love and all that, but,” he claimed, it was “more about the undermining of the foundations of religion and morality.”

“Because if you remember in the late 60s we invented things like no-fault divorce laws. We invented the sexual revolution. We invented radical feminism. We invented legalized abortion in 1973, where the state government sanctioned the killing of the unborn,” he said.

“All these things happened because as collectively as Americans, we began to get together in growing numbers and thumb our nose at the creator and say, ‘We don’t believe that anymore, we’re rejecting the founders natural law philosophy in favor of moral relativism, and we’re going down another path.’ “

“Now, what we tolerate in moderation our children excuse in excess. What happens when you fast forward another 30 or 40 years?” he asked. “We know that we’re living in a completely amoral society. And people say, ‘How can a young person go into their school house and open fire on their classmates?’ Because we taught a whole generation, a couple of generations now, of Americans that there is no right and wrong. That it’s about survival of the fittest and you evolved from the primordial slime, why is that life of any sacred value because there’s nobody sacred to whom it’s owed.”

No mention about GUNS being responsible for the shootings because like most Republicans, Mike Johnson is bought & paid for by the NRA.

Under the Democrat Clinton Administration Assault Weapons Ban, the maximum capacity of a magazine was set at 10 rounds. AR-15s were one of 18 semiautomatic weapons banned under the 1994 law that expired in 2004 during the Republican George W. Bush administration despite broad public support and a drop in gun fatalities. Since then, killers have used semiautomatics to target victims en masse. Republicans are responsible for mass shootings and deaths since 2004 because President George W. Bush let the Assault Weapons Ban expire in 2004. Republicans have refused since then to allow it to be renewed.

5 things to know about Speaker Mike Johnson

All eyes are on Rep. Mike Johnson (R-La.), the 51-year-old whose election to be the 56th Speaker on Wednesday put an end to the over three weeks of turmoil and GOP infighting in the lower chamber. Johnson, who was serving his second term as vice chair of the House Republican Conference, won the Speaker’s gavel in…

Per the above article:

Johnson has opposed Ukraine aid

  • Johnson was one of 57 Republicans to vote “no” on a $40 billion aid package to Ukraine.

Johnson pushed to overturn 2020 election results

  • Almost immediately after the 2020 election, Johnson emerged as a supporter of then-President Trump’s unfounded claims that the election was stolen from him.
  • Later in 2020, Johnson led an amicus brief signed by 100 House Republicans supporting a Texas lawsuit that aimed to overturn the 2020 election results in Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. After the brief was introduced, Johnston posted to X, “President Trump called me this morning to let me know how much he appreciates the amicus brief we are filing on behalf of Members of Congress. Indeed, this is a big one!’”
  • Johnson was also one of 139 House Republicans who later voted to object to the election results in Arizona, Pennsylvania or both, shortly after the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the Capitol.

Johnson is an ally of Trump

  • Johnson has also come out as a vocal critic of the mounting legal battles against Trump, arguing the former president and “disfavored” Republicans have been targeted by legal and political systems.
  • Johnson serves on the House Judiciary’s Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government and has used discussion of President Biden and his family’s alleged foreign business dealings to call out the “bogus” charges against Trump, which include a case from the special counsel Jack Smith over Trump’s efforts to overturn the election.

Johnson voted against the recent bill to keep the government open

  • Johnson was among the 90 Republicans who voted in opposition of the CR, though it still passed in a largely bipartisan 335-91 vote.

 

Mike Johnson’s campaign contributions from company tied to Russia

The Louisiana Republican’s team previously said it returned all the money it received from a company predominantly owned by Russian nationals in 2018.

Per the above article: “Mike Johnson’s Campaign Contributions From Company Tied to Russia”

A group of Russian nationals were able to donate to newly elected House Speaker Mike Johnson’s campaign in 2018 by funneling the money through a U.S. company. The Texas-based American Ethane company previously donated tens of thousands of dollars to the campaigns of Louisiana Republicans including Johnson, who was voted by the House to replace Rep. Kevin McCarthy as Speaker on Wednesday following three weeks of GOP chaos in the lower chamber.

One of the men behind the company, Nikolaev, an oligarch with close ties to Russian President Vladimir Putin, was also found to have financially backed Maria Butina, a Russian citizen who lived in Washington D.C. Butina was sentenced to 18 months in prison in 2019 after admitting to acting as an unregistered foreign agent to infiltrate conservative political groups and influence foreign policy to Russia’s benefit before and after the 2016 election.

Johnson’s former campaign manager, Jason Hebert, previously told The Advocate that the campaign returned the money given to them by American Ethane in 2018 once it was “made aware of the situation.”

Sharing a subpoena issued as part of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation in 2018, Los Angeles-based attorney Ronald Lebow posted on X (formerly Twitter): “Besides being supportive of the attempted coup, Johnson received money from Russian Oligarchs and was known to Marina Butina, the Russian spy/go between funneling money from Putin to the NRA and Republicans like Johnson.”

It is against federal law for a campaign to knowingly accept donations from a foreign-owned corporation, a foreign national, or any company owned or controlled by foreign nationals.

A Federal Election Commission investigation ruled in 2022 that American Ethane made political campaign contributions using funds derived from loans from foreign entities ultimately owned by Russian nationals and that American Ethane had “zero domestic funds available” to make those contributions.

In a scathing letter, two FEC commissioners, Democrats Shana M. Broussard and Ellen L. Weintraub, condemned their Republican colleagues after the agency only fined American Ethane a $9,500 civil penalty for donating to GOP candidates in Louisiana in 2018 despite being almost entirely owned by Russian nationals”.

This is another example of how Russia and it’s murderous, terrorist dictator Putin supports Republicans, because their anti-democratic fascist policies aligns well with those of Russia.

 

Mike Johnson hates America, but he believes he can save it

“We’re living in a completely amoral society.”

Per the above article: “Mike Johnson, the new Republican speaker of the House, has a very dark view of America. He believes that the United States is “a completely amoral society” and that global “sinister” forces have a hold on some of its governmental policies.

Immediately after Johnson—a little known congressman from Louisiana whose most notable act to date has been leading the effort to block the certification of Joe Biden’s 2020 victory—was elevated by the House GOP to be speaker, people started digging into his background and discovered that he was a far-right Christian fundamentalist who seeks to ban all abortions, who has called for getting rid of no-fault divorce, who has decried same-sex marriage, and who has compared homosexuality to pedophilia. He is a culture war extremist.

He also seems to hate America—at least, modern-day America.

In a 2016 sermon he preached at the Christian Center of Shreveport—while he was running for Congress—Johnson summed up his take on the United States. Standing before an American flag and an Israeli flag, Johnson delivered a 90-minute-long presentation in which he traced all present ills to the countercultural upheaval of the 1960s and 1970s that undermined “the foundations of religion and morality.” He ticked off the culprits: no-fault divorce, the sexual revolution, radical feminism, and legalized abortion. “Collectively as Americans,” he declared, “we began to get together in growing number and thumb our noses at the Creator and say we don’t believe that anymore.” The nation, he bemoaned, chose a path of “moral relativism.” He pronounced a harsh verdict: “We’re living in a completely amoral society.

for Mike Johnson, the world is full of devilish and anti-Christian forces. On a podcast that featured him and Jordan Peterson, the Canadian conservative provocateur, the pair turned toward the topic of climate change. Johnson demeaned climate activists as irrational, and he contended that they “regarded the climate agenda as part of their religion.” He continued: “They’re not serving the people. They’re serving the planet…They have effectively replaced Father God with Mother Earth…They believe we owe fealty to Mother Earth. We are created by the Earth, they believe. So we must owe everything to the Earth itself.” He was saying climate advocates were anti-God.

Johnson took it further. Peterson, who depicted climate change as a hoax, suggested that there was “something more nefarious going on…even than we owe fealty to the planet. It’s something like we have to destroy capitalism at all cost.” Johnson agreed: “I think that’s right. They’re consistently irrational. At a local or regional level here in the US, for example, I think the religious zeal argument makes some sense. But I do think on the international level, the persons who are ultimately responsible for this, those who are pushing the agenda, the elites at the top of the food chain, so to speak, there is a more sinister agenda. Ultimately, you and I, I think, agree this is about government control. They will pursue that with religious fervor, of course, as well. And they seem to have gotten the entire civilized world bought in on this, at least the leaders of many of these nations bought in on this idea that we have to pursue this agenda at any cost.”

In his first speech after becoming speaker, Johnson proclaimed, “I believe that scripture, the Bible is very clear. That God is the one that raises up those in authority.” He must be interpreting his improbable rise to speakership as an act of God—and a step toward the “biblical” United States for which he has long yearned.

Johnson, whose public demeanor is gentle and polite, is propelled by a rather grim and Manichean attitude toward the world. The United States is a moral hellhole. Those who embrace a biblical perspective, like he and Kelly do, are a small and decreasing minority—backs against the wall—fighting for the light in a time of darkness. And “sinister” conspirators at the global level are plotting against them”.

 

What Mike Johnson has said about cutting social security

New House Speaker Mike Johnson now faces scrutiny over past claims that entitlements threaten U.S. government stability.

Per the above article: “Attention is being drawn to Representative Mike Johnson’s stance on America’s entitlement programs—Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid.

During his tenure as chair of the Republican Study Committee (RSC) from 2019 to 2021, Johnson, a Republican from Louisiana, vigorously championed budget resolutions proposing trillions in cuts to these programs.

According to Bobby Kogan, senior director of Federal Budget Policy at American Progress, the proposed cuts were staggering; roughly $2 trillion from Medicare, $3 trillion from Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act, and $750 billion from Social Security.

At an American Enterprise Institute for Public Policy Research event before he was elected speaker, Johnson did not mince his words, saying that entitlements like Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security pose an “existential threat” to the American way of life and the “whole form of government.”

A reduction in entitlement programs could have profound implications for the American people. Millions rely on Social Security for retirement income, on Medicare for health coverage in their golden years, and on Medicaid for essential healthcare services, particularly for low-income and vulnerable populations”.

 

The Christian Nationalism of Speaker Mike Johnson

Newly elected Speaker Mike Johnson embraces a Christian Nationalist view of the U.S.

Per the above article: “In his first day as the new Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, Mike Johnson (R-LA) wasted no time in using sweeping religious rhetoric to magnify this political moment. While addressing his colleagues he shared how, “I don’t believe there are any coincidences. I believe that scripture, the Bible, is very clear that God is the one that raises up those in authority, he raised up each of you, all of us. And I believe that God has ordained and allowed us to be brought here to this specific moment and time.”

While what Speaker Johnson believes God ordained him to do will become clear in the coming weeks and months, his prior work, words, and writing give several clues. Although he has never called himself a Christian Nationalist nor publicly embraced the term as other House Reps have done, each example points to the strong embrace of the ethos of Christian nationalism—a cultural framework that advocates for a particular expression of Christianity to be fused with American civic life, with the government vigorously promoting and preserving this version of Christianity as the principal and undisputed cultural framework.

Speaker Johnson has explicitly embraced the idea that the U.S. was founded upon particular Christian principles, in 2016 claiming, “You know, we don’t live in a democracy . . . It’s a constitutional republic. And the founders set that up because they followed the biblical admonition on what a civil society is supposed to look like.”

In the same interview, he reiterated his belief that the separation of church and state is not a constitutional principle. “Over the last 60 or 70 years our generation has been convinced that there is a separation of church and state . . . most people think that is part of the Constitution, but it’s not.” And in 2022, he stated “The founders wanted to protect the church from an encroaching state, not the other way around.” Johnson, and those he has famously represented, insist the United States is a nation with “Judeo-Christian roots” at which “secular forces are chipping away.”

 

MAGA Mike Johnson’s Extreme Record Uncovered

Practically nobody knew who Mike Johnson was yesterday morning, and everything we have learned since has proven that Johnson’s speakership cements the extreme MAGA takeover of the House Republican Conference.

MAGA Mike Johnson’s Extreme Record Uncovered

Per the above article: “Practically nobody knew who Mike Johnson was yesterday morning, and everything we have learned since has proven that Johnson’s speakership cements the extreme MAGA takeover of the House Republican Conference. Since getting the gavel, Johnson has received nothing but praise from Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans – who’ve dubbed him “MAGA Mike” – while facing new scrutiny for his role leading efforts to overturn the 2020 election, fighting for a national abortion ban, railing against equal rights for the LGBTQ community, and working to gut Social Security and Medicare.

Johnson is a staunch ally of Donald Trump who has received nothing but praise from the former president and his MAGA minions since becoming speaker. They’ve even nicknamed him “MAGA Mike.”

Trump: “MAGA MIKE JOHNSON!”

Matt Gaetz: “MAGA is ascendant, and if you don’t think that moving from Kevin McCarthy to MAGA Mike Johnson shows the ascendance of this movement, and where the power of the Republican Party truly lies, then you’re not paying attention.”

Trump: “We think Mike Johnson is going to do really well. He’s popular. He’s smart. He’s sharp. He’s going to do fantastic… I think he’s going to be a fantastic Speaker.”

CNN: “Why Trump is so happy about the new House speaker”

The Hill: “Johnson won the gavel with the full support of the Republican conference Tuesday, including lawmakers closely aligned with Trump.”

CNN: “But the record suggests [Johnson] is no less partisan, particularly on issues of importance to Trump, like the 2020 election and Republicans’ effort to impeach President Joe Biden.”

Johnson is refusing to answer questions about his role as a behind-the-scenes “architect” of Trump’s Big Lie — helping spread election conspiracy theories and leading the effort to overturn the 2020 election results.

Politico: “A relatively junior House Republican at the time, Johnson was nevertheless the leading voice in support of a fateful position: that the GOP should rally around Donald Trump and object to counting electoral votes submitted by at least a handful of states won by Joe Biden…

“A review of the chaotic weeks between Trump’s defeat at the polls on Nov. 3, 2020, and the Jan. 6 Capitol attack shows that Johnson led the way in shaping legal arguments that became gospel among GOP lawmakers who sought to derail Biden’s path to the White House — even after all but the most extreme options had elapsed. As Trump’s legal challenges faltered, Johnson consistently spread a singular message: It’s not over yet.”

Washington Post: “In the weeks after the 2020 election, an obscure Republican lawmaker from Louisiana led a congressional effort to overturn the presidential results in four battleground states that had helped secure Joe Biden’s victory over Donald Trump… Johnson played one of the most significant roles of any member of Congress in the effort to overturn the election.”

Johnson is an anti-abortion extremist who’s repeatedly supported and voted for a cruel national abortion ban.

New York Times: “In Congress, Mr. Johnson has voted for a national abortion ban and co-sponsored a 20-week abortion ban, earning him an A-plus rating from the anti-abortion group Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America. After the Supreme Court voted to overturn Roe v. Wade in June last year, he celebrated.”

Jezebel: “Shortly after Johnson’s confirmation, on Thursday New York Magazine’s Irin Carmon resurfaced an old interview between her and Johnson from 2015 when he served in Louisiana’s state House and was working to dismantle abortion access.

At the time, Carmon writes that Johnson, who expressed hope that Roe v. Wade would someday be overturned, railed against people supposedly ‘using abortion as birth control’ and appeared to blame school shootings on abortion: ‘When you break up the nuclear family, when you tell a generation of people that life has no value, no meaning, that it’s expendable, then you do wind up with school shooters.’”

During Johnson’s time as a chair and current member of the ultra-conservative Republican Study Committee, he’s supported slashing trillions from Social Security and Medicare.

Common Dreams: “The newly elected Republican speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives has previously proposed trillions of dollars in cuts to Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid and suggested that slashing the programs should be the top priority of Congress.

“During his tenure as chair of the Republican Study Committee (RSC) between 2019 and 2021, Rep. Mike Johnson (R-La.) helped craft budget resolutions that called for roughly $2 trillion in Medicare cuts, $3 trillion in Medicaid and Affordable Care Act cuts, and $750 billion in Social Security Cuts, noted Bobby Kogan of the Center for American Progress.”

Semafor: “These days, the RSC is best known around Washington as a GOP policy shop responsible for crafting proposals to balance the federal budget, often through changes and cuts to Social Security and Medicare.”

Johnson has a long history of making hateful comments about the LGBTQ community – and has supported and introduced legislation that refuses to grant LGBTQ people the equal rights they deserve.

ABC News: “An ABC News examination of public records, news reports and documents shows the extent to which Johnson dedicated earlier phases of his career to limiting gay rights, including same-sex marriage and health care access, and through anti-gay activism on college campuses.

“In 2005, the Family Research Council, an influential right-wing lobbying group, honored Johnson for his work defending Louisiana’s constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage.”

CNN: “Speaker of the House Mike Johnson has a history of harsh anti-gay language from his time as an attorney for a socially conservative legal group in the mid-2000s. In editorials that ran in his local Shreveport, Louisiana, paper, The Times, Johnson called homosexuality a ‘inherently unnatura’ and ‘dangerous lifestyle’ that would lead to legalized pedophilia and possibly even destroy ‘the entire democratic system.’

“And, in another editorial, he wrote, ‘Your race, creed, and sex are what you are, while homosexuality and cross-dressing are things you do,” he wrote. “This is a free country, but we don’t give special protections for every person’s bizarre choices.’

“Now, Johnson is the speaker of the House at a time when a majority of Americans are strongly supportive of gay rights.”

Insider: “Last October, Johnson led over two dozen of his colleagues in introducing the “Stop the Sexualization of Children Act of 2022.”

The bill is essentially the national version of Florida’s Parental Rights in Education Law — dubbed “Don’t Say Gay” by critics.

That’s led the Human Rights Campaign to condemn the bill as the ‘latest cruel attempt to stigmatize and marginalize the community.’”

 

‘Go pick up a Bible’: Speaker Mike Johnson defends anti-LGBTQ+ views

Republican House speaker, who has advanced extreme views as attorney and legislator, says ‘I am a Bible-believing Christian’

Per the above article: Before entering Congress in 2016, he was an attorney for rightwing Christian groups and a state legislator. In both roles he advanced extreme views, particularly against abortion and LGBTQ+ rights.

Johnson’s work for the Alliance Defending Freedom has attracted widespread attention. The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), which monitors far-right activity, calls the ADF a hate group – a label it rejects.

Nonetheless, the SPLC says the ADF has “supported the recriminalisation of sexual acts between consenting LGBTQ+ adults in the US and criminalisation abroad; defended state-sanctioned sterilisation of trans people abroad; contended that LGBTQ+ people are more likely to engage in paedophilia; and claimed that a ‘homosexual agenda’ will destroy Christianity and society”.

Homosexual relationships are inherently unnatural,” Johnson wrote in 2004, “and, the studies clearly show, are ultimately harmful and costly for everyone.”

Johnson also called same-sex marriage, which would be made legal across the US in 2015, “the dark harbinger of chaos and sexual anarchy that could doom even the strongest republic”.

Johnson said authorities had “legitimate grounds to proscribe same-sex deviate intercourse”.

“In closing these bedroom doors,” he wrote, “they have opened a Pandora’s box.”

The above remark is most striking; “In closing these bedroom doors, they have opened a Pandora’s box.” This seems to indicate that Johnson literally wants to legislate what consenting adults can do in the privacy of their own bedroom.

Johnson may think he was made Speaker of the House by God to do what HE thinks God wants, and as Speaker, he’s going to change the world into what HE wants. But his delusions of grandeur will hit a brick wall because President Biden won’t sign any legislation which takes away people’s freedom into law. Any insane legislation Johnson & his MAGA House try’s to pass will prove they’re out-of-control lunatics to the American people and help ensure Republicans are voted out in 2024.

Former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee tried to scare the Right into believing that the country is under attack from Democrats, and he went as far as to say that it is Biden who is going after Trump, and if he’s successful, this could be the last election “decided by ballots…instead of bullets.” These kinds of violent threats of revolution are becoming far too common on the Right, as Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains.

During his latest public appearance, he called upon the estimated 8,000 attendees to assault those he deems “enemies of America.”

“They didn’t sneak into the White House — they lied, they cheated, they scammed, and every day the Democrats violate their sacred oath to the Constitution. And if you can’t impress your friends on that, they shouldn’t be your friends,” he said to cheers from the crowd.

“So I love you people madly,” he continued, “but I’d love you more if you went forward and just went berserk on the skulls of the Democrats and the Marxists and the Communists.” [source: thewrap.com/ted-nugent-incites-violence-berserk-skulls-democrats]

ELECTION FACTS:

  • More people voted for Democrats than Republicans during the last 7 out of 8 elections as shown in the above graph. more details…
  • As of October 2022, 48 million registered voters identify themselves as Democrats. At 38.78%, Democrats represent the largest share of registered voters in the states and territories that allow voters to indicate partisan affiliation on their registration forms. details…
  • 36.4 million registered voters identified themselves as Republicans, representing 29.42% of registered voters in these areas.
  • A total of 35.3 million registered voters identified themselves as independents or unaffiliated with any political party. This amounted to 28.55% of registered voters in these areas.
    Approximately 4 million registered voters identified themselves as members of other political parties. This amounted to 3.25% of registered voters in these areas.
  • In the 2020 presidential election, Joe Biden (D) received a combined 53.5% of the vote to Donald Trump’s (R) 44.7% across these states and territories. Both candidates received a larger percentage of votes than the percentage of their respective party’s registered voters.
  • Independent and minor-party voters made up 31.80% of all registered voters in these areas, while independent and minor-party presidential candidates received about 1.9% of the vote nationwide.

Independent Voters Political Leaning

Independent Voters Political Leaning is often are portrayed as political free agents with the potential to alleviate the nation’s rigid partisan divisions. Yet the reality is that most independents are not all that “independent” politically. And the small share of Americans who are truly independent – less than 10% of the public has no partisan leaning – stand out for their low level of interest in politics.

Among the public overall, 38% describe themselves as independents, while 31% are Democrats and 26% call themselves Republicans, according to Pew Research Center surveys conducted in 2018. These shares have changed only modestly in recent years, but the proportion of independents is higher than it was from 2000-2008, when no more than about a third of the public identified as independents. details…

CONCLUSION: The above data shows there are 11.6 million more registered Democrats than Republicans Nationwide. 31% of Independents vote Democrat and 26% vote Republican. The fact that there are so many more voters who are registered Democrat and more Independents vote for Democrats, makes claims that the “Election was stolen” to be insane and unreasonable.

REPUBLICANS ARE A MINORITY PARTY WITH LESS VOTERS

If it weren’t for the electoral college which sometimes allows to Republicans to win due to how a small margin of people vote in Swing States, Republicans would never win another election. As shown above, more people voted for Democrats than Republicans during the last 7 out of 8 elections. That number increased in the 2020 election with Democrats receiving 8 million more votes than Republicans and is likely to further increase with more young voters, who votes for Democrats over Republicans.

REPUBLICAN POLICIES AND BEHAVIOR IS UNPOPULAR WITH THE MAJORITY

Republicans passing laws attacking Freedom of Speech, Criminalizing Assembly & Protests, Laws Legalizing Running Over & Killing Protestors, Limiting what can be Discussed & Taught in Classrooms, Banning Books, Anti-Choice Legislation Against Women, Placing $10,000 Bounties on anyone who helps a Women get an Abortion, Voting to eliminate Affordable Healthcare over 70 times, Plans to cut Social Security, Medicare & Medicaid, Conspiracy Theories, Lying with impunity, Violent Rhetoric, Religious Fanaticism, Anti-LGBT laws, Praising murderous dictators such as Putin, Wanting to eliminate Democracy and make Trump a Dictator for life, Rigging Elections by Gerrymandering, Voter Obstruction, Voter Purges, Passing laws to Overturn Election Results, Decreasing Voting by Mail, Decreasing Drop Boxes, Decreasing the Days & Hours people can Vote, Making it Illegal to give Food or Water to people waiting in Long Lines they’re responsible for causing to make it difficult to Vote, etc are out of step with the values of the majority of Americans. Most Americans find this conduct outrageous and have vowed to never vote again for Republicans.

Sidney Powell Pleads GUILTY Attempting to OVERTURN 2020 ELECTION

October 19, 2023 – “Powell pleaded guilty to six misdemeanor counts of conspiracy to commit election interference in Fulton County Georgia Superior Court as part of a deal reached with prosecutors.

Powell agreed to serve six years of probation and pay a $6,000 fine and $2,700 in restitution to the state of Georgia. She also agreed to submit an apology letter to the citizens of Georgia and to testify at related court proceedings.

Powell was one of 19 defendants named in District Attorney Fani Willis’ indictment, which also charged former President Donald Trump.

Powell, who acted as one of Trump’s lawyers after his 2020 election loss to Joe Biden, was charged with racketeering, conspiracy to commit election fraud, conspiracy to commit computer theft, trespassing and invasion of privacy, and conspiracy to defraud the state.

Powell was among the Trump allies who had pushed conspiracy theories about voter fraud in the 2020 presidential election. At a White House meeting in December 2020, Trump discussed the idea of naming Powell as a special counsel to investigate voter fraud”.

Giuliani is ordered to pay $148 million to Georgia election workers he defamed

The former mayor of New York helped Donald Trump try to overturn his 2020 election loss, and in the process spread lies about election workers in battleground states.

Giuliani ordered to immediately pay $146 million to Georgia election workers he defamed

Per the above article: “Former Trump campaign attorney Rudy Giuliani has been ordered to pay a staggering $148 million to two former Georgia election workers he spread lies about following the 2020 election.

The decision on Friday comes at the end of a week-long federal civil trial in Washington, D.C., where an eight-person jury heard from the workers — Wandrea “Shaye” Moss and her mother Ruby Freeman — about how 2020 election conspiracies spread by Giuliani and former President Donald Trump turned their lives upside down. “I was afraid for my life,” Moss said during her testimony on Tuesday. “I literally felt that someone would attempt to hang me and there was nothing anyone could do about it.”

Jurors heard numerous violent and racist voicemails the women received, after Giuliani used his massive platform as a campaign attorney for Trump to spread lies about their actions as election workers in Georgia.

In the time after voting ended in 2020, Giuliani shared video from an absentee ballot counting facility in Fulton County, which he falsely claimed showed the two women cheating and scanning ballots multiple times to benefit Joe Biden.

A hand-count audit in Georgia found votes to have been tallied correctly in the 2020 election, and a years-long investigation by the Georgia secretary of state’s office found the accusations against Moss and Freeman to be “false and unsubstantiated. There was no evidence that suggested they did anything wrong, except show up for work and work hard,” testified Frank Braun, who oversaw the investigation for the secretary of state’s office”.

New details emerge about Trump’s efforts to overturn election

The Senate Judiciary Committee released a sweeping report detailing how President Donald Trump tried to overturn the 2020 presidential election.

 

Trump’s unsubstantiated claim that mail-in ballots will lead to voter fraud is more proof of how delusional and unfit Trump is to be President.

 

There is no evidence to back up Trump’s blanket claim that “mailed ballots are corrupt.” Voting experts say the president is exaggerating when he says mail ballots are “fraudulent in many cases.” While the instances of voter fraud via mail-in or absentee ballots are more common than in-person voting fraud, the number of known cases is relatively rare.

Trump also falsely claimed that California reached a settlement with Judicial Watch in which the state “agree[d] that a million people should not have voted.” California and Los Angeles County agreed to remove inactive voters from their voter rolls per federal law. But there’s no evidence any of them voted, fraudulently or otherwise.

And as he has in the past, Trump claimed there’s “a lot of fraudulent voting going on in this country.” Experts say voter fraud is rare.

Renowned Psychologist : Like Hitler, Trump suffers from Sadism, Malignant Narcissism & Paranoia

Renowned Psychologist Dr. John Gartner, who specializes in borderline personality disorder, biopolar disorder, and depression stated; Trump has the most dangerous form of mental illness that you can find in a leader… Malignant Narcissism.

Gartner stated that Malignant narcissism is a combination of 4 traits, which includes narcissism, paranoia, antisocial personality disorder (the psychology of a criminal and someone who routinely lies) and sadism.

The sadist aspects of Trump’s apparent mental illness, according is Gartner, means that “he is driven and gets intense pleasure from harming, humiliating, and degrading other people.”

“He has actually gotten intense pleasure from [other people’s] pain. He is reveling in the chaos and the destruction he is causing,” Gartner explained. “The more he feels threatened by the Mueller investigation, the more he needs to experience the exaltation of feeling drunk with power, through his ability to harm and humiliate and degrade other people.”

While Gartner stopped short of saying that Trump is the next incarnation of Hitler, he did emphasize the importance of looking back at history as a means to try and prevent the catastrophes of the past from happening yet again.

In speaking of Trump, Gartner did not imply that Trump would follow in the path of Hitler, but he did underscore his belief that “these are the kind of people who really can commit genocide,” when comparing the two men.

“I’m not saying he’s Hitler. I’m saying he has the same psychology. He’s of the same type, cut from the same cloth…. He is someone, who if given the chance, would enact that same kind of destructive agenda.”

Gartner accentuated his observations that Trump is demonizing immigrants similarly to how Hitler

 

Numerous mental health professionals claim Trump is a Malignant Narcissist. Dr. Lance Dodes stated; “If we could construct a psychiatric Frankenstein monster, we could not create a leader more dangerously mentally ill than Donald Trump. He is a paranoid, psychopathic, narcissist who is divorced from reality and lashes out impulsively at his imagined enemies’.

 

Psychiatrist Warns That Trump Has Become More ‘Psychotic’ As Trials Get Closer

Per the article referenced in the above video at; salon.com/2024/02/02/either-malpractice-or-criminal-dr-justin-frank-on-power-and

Donald Trump has repeatedly shown that he is a lawless person — but his malign influence extends far beyond himself.

We are a society more divided than united. Many of us are anti-intellectual and don’t want to think. That makes such people attracted to strongmen and bullies like Trump. Trump has made his followers reject the truth for alternate facts – and that makes most of us insecure and uncertain about what to believe.

Trump’s “dangerous charisma” attracts already corrupt and ethically compromised people into his orbit. He also exerts a malignant perfidious influence over people who are vulnerable to such energy and temptations, but for whatever reason have not yet fully surrendered to them. This is a defining feature of dangerous leaders.

Dr. Frank continues to warn about Trump’s extremely dangerous mind and overall pattern of behavior and why as seen with the second E. Jean Carroll court case for defamation, and escalating threats of violence and retribution against his “enemies”, that the corrupt ex-president will not be stopped by “the walls closing in.” Instead, Dr. Frank predicts that Trump is a malignant narcissist who will go down in a blaze of glory before he ever surrenders or is otherwise made to yield in his assaults on society, human decency, and the rule of law.

From the time Trump was five years old, he hated rules and couldn’t control himself. If Trump didn’t like something, he would convert feelings into immediate action. He threw rocks at a toddler who lived next door when he was five. He punched out his second-grade teacher because he got mad at him. As a father, Trump knocked out his son, Don Jr., when he was in high school because he wasn’t dressed appropriately. Trump has always been like this. As people age, they generally do not change; they instead become more of their true selves. His capacity for self-restraint is becoming a thinner veneer over fundamental destructiveness. He is increasingly no longer able to fake it. This is why Trump is in court acting out, mumbling, being angry and disruptive.

In my opinion, Donald Trump is a “segmental thinker”. He lives in the moment and is attracted by a shiny object and forgets everything else.

The main thing that I am worried about is the complacency of the public and specifically the country’s leaders and law enforcement and other people in positions of authority and power who are still letting Trump run wild. Trump is extremely dangerous. Trump does not believe in laws and rules. He wants to be a lawless dictator. This is why I continue to share my conclusion, based on the evidence, that Donald Trump appears to be psychotic. He is a person who is detached from reality. Even with the trials and other pressures, Trump is not capable of breaking down, of being cowed and/or broken. If anything, Trump will go down in flames if he goes down at all. Trump is an extreme narcissist who will destroy anyone who has ever done anything to hurt him, to oppose him, or defy him.

 

Trump is so LAWLESS and CORRUPT that he tried to pressure the Department of Justice to declare the 2020 election was corrupted so he could stay in office AGAINST the will of the people.

 

Trump is so LAWLESS and CORRUPT that he pressured Georgia’s Republican secretary of state to “find more votes” to shift the count in his favor.

Special Prosecutor Jack Smith’s unsealed court filing that says Trump ‘resorted to crimes’ after 2020 election

Trump laid the groundwork to try to overturn the 2020 election even before he lost, knowingly pushed false claims of voter fraud and “resorted to crimes” in his failed bid to cling to power, according to a newly unsealed court filing from prosecutors that offers new evidence from the landmark criminal case against the former president.

In a 165-page legal brief unsealed by a federal judge (albeit with some redactions), the special counsel fleshed out detailed evidence he would use against Trump at trial. Smith also presented his arguments for why Trump is not immune from the charges, despite the Supreme Court’s ruling over the summer that granted presidents broad immunity for official acts.

At 2:24 p.m. on Jan. 6, as Trump supporters were attacking the Capitol, Trump took to Twitter to condemn Vice President Mike Pence, saying Pence lacked “courage” because Pence had resisted Trump’s pressure to intervene in the Electoral College certification. When Trump was told by an aide of Pence’s evacuation, prosecutors say Trump responded: “So what?” [source: politico.com/news/2024/10/02/jack-smith-trump-election-brief-details-00182287]

Republican are Socialist Hypocrites

The above video exposes how Republicans are hypocrites who engage in, and condone Socialism for the Rich in the form of corporate bails-outs, tax payer funded sports stadiums, farm subsidies (22 billion in 2019 when Trump was President) etc, but harsh “pull yourself by up by your own bootstraps” Capitalism for everyone else.

Republicans who say they want to “Fight the Democrats Socialist Agenda” are Socialist Hypocrites, Anti-Democratic Fascist and Corporate Boot-lickers who pander to the RICH.

Per an article at salon.com – “Beware of right-wing scare tactics about Democratic socialism: Conservatives are using this boogeyman to manipulate their base”; “If you polled Republican primary voters and asked them if they supported Social Security or Medicare and Medicaid, an overwhelming majority would say ‘Yes.’ And that would, strictly speaking, make them socialists. Both liberals and conservatives treasure fundamentally socialist programs, but propagandistic polls like this mislead respondents into thinking the choice between socialism and capitalism is a binary one.

“We already have, as Sanders says, socialist safety nets for the very rich and the very poor, but pitiless free market capitalism for everyone else. He’s merely proposing we extend those safety nets to the middle class. Republicans talk about democratic socialism as though it’s interchangeable with communism. The later involves the government owning the means of production (which no one actually proposes); the former is a return to the midcentury norm, to the America of FDR and Eisenhower and Johnson”.

Senator Bernie Sanders stated; “Almost everything he [FDR] proposed was called ‘socialist.’ Social Security, which transformed life for the elderly in this country was ‘socialist.’ The concept of the ‘minimum wage’ was seen as a radical intrusion into the marketplace and was described as ‘socialist.’ Unemployment insurance, abolishing child labor, the 40-hour work week, collective bargaining, strong banking regulations, deposit insurance, and job programs that put millions of people to work were all described, one way or another, as ‘socialist.’ Yet these programs have become the fabric of our nation and the foundation of the middle class.”

 

Republicans who bashed the Infrastructure Bill as being the “Biggest leap towards socialism this nation has ever seen” are now attempting to take credit for Infrastructure Bill they voted against. This is just another example of Republican’s “Socialist Hypocrisy”.

 

These are some of the items in the Infrastructure Bill which Republicans called “Socialist”.

Let not forget how it was Democratic President Franklin D. Roosevelt who lifted America out of the Great Depression and put Americans back to work with his Grand New Deal.

 

President Harry Truman explains the difference between Republicans & Democrats at the 1948 Democratic Convention

 

 

Republicans use boogeyman phrases like “Socialist”, “Marxist” “Communists” and “Democrats will take your guns away” to SCARE uninformed people into NOT voting for Democrats, the very party dedicated to improving lives of the middle class and the poor. Democrats are NOT Socialist, Marxist or Communists. Most Republicans couldn’t accurately describe what Marxism, Socialism or Communism means if they’re life depended on it. Scare tactics is their stock-in-trade, because they have nothing else to offer.

When Republicans use their old, tired scare tactic campaign slogan that their going to Fight the “Democrats Socialist Agenda”, what they’re really saying is they want to take away your Affordable Health Care, Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid and other programs which benefit the middle class and the poor.

All Republicans care about is maintaining POWER and giving Tax breaks to the RICH so they can stay in power. They do NOTHING for the Middle Class and the Poor. What has a Republican ever done for you and your family?

 

Republicans LIE About Socialism to Scare Americans Into Settling for Less Than They Deserve

Jesse talks about socialism in America and its past and future. Also discussed are the many lies that Republicans tell about it in an effort to instill fear in American voters about that which there is nothing to fear.

 

Republicans have been lying about Democrats for years to convince people to vote for Republicans against their own best interests.

During the 2008 Presidential election, Republicans accused Barack Obama as being a Arab, Muslim and Terrorist. Republican Rep Allen West falsely claimed that 78 to 81 Democrat members of congress were members of Communist Party. The above video also shows Democrat’s policies are wildly popular in poll after poll.

 

Republicans voted 70 times to eliminate Affordable Health Care and have been wanting to CUT Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid for years

 

 

Republicans pursue Radical Right Wing Social issues such as passing Anti-Abortion, Anti-LGBT laws to get a large segment of the population to vote for them and use voter obstruction tactics so they can stay in power against the will of the majority of Americans. They have no problem lying or doing, saying what-ever it takes to hold onto power.

Trump & Republicans lying about the 2020 election, claiming the election was “Rigged”, “Stolen” and he “Won in a landslide” when the facts prove otherwise prove they are liars who have no decency.

Fighting “Democrats Socialist Agenda” means ending programs, services and benefits like these which we all take for granted;

Affordable Health Care

Social Security

Medicare

Medicaid

Guaranteed public education

Public transportation

Fire departments

Police departments

Public libraries

Every branch of the US military

Roads & highways

Public, not private prisons & jails

Public hospitals

The Veterans Affairs Administration

Public universities

Public parks

Public toilets

Public drinking fountains

Public parking

Public everything

 

 

 

For decades, Republicans has used the term “Socialism” and “Socialist” as a scare tactic to try and keep people from voting for Democrats.

Republicans like to proclaim… “The United States will NEVER be a Socialist Country”. Well, it already is and they’re either too stupid to realize it, or too dishonest to admit it.

 

Taxpayers Funded Stadiums and Sports Socialism

Taxpayer funded construction of sports stadiums is rarely an investment that generates enough revenue to justify the expense.

John Elroy executive vice president of football operations for the Denver Broncos of the National Football League (NFL), say’s he’s a Republican because he’s against “safety nets”.

Republicans keep saying they are less government and wasteful spending. As shown in this video, a Democrat Mayor in Atlanta said NO to construction of a new taxpayer funded sports stadium while a Republican in a nearby town said YES.

This is an example of “Welfare for the Wealthy” and how Republicans have no problem using millions of taxpayer money for sports, but do not want to help regular Americans and the poor.

Sports and Farm Bill Socialism “safety nets” is OK fine with Republicans but most of these Repub scrooges don’t believe in helping the poor.

 

RED STATES ARE THE BIGGEST USERS OF “SOCIALIST” PROGRAMS

 

 

Welfare Hypocrisy: Red States Are The Real Freeloaders

For years the Republican Party has been telling us that the welfare system in America is helping to make people lazy and making them too dependent on the federal government.

 

Republicans Always Pretend to be such “Good Christians”

Republicans constantly site the bible to rationalize their every day actions, but are hypocrites by doing everything possible to take away assistance to the poor.

Matthew 25:40 says “Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me”.

Matthew 25:31-46 says “For I was hungry, and you fed me. I was thirsty, and you gave me a drink. I was a stranger, and you invited me into your home. I was naked, and you gave me clothing. I was sick, and you cared for me. I was in prison, and you visited me.’’

Cutting assistance to the poor is in direct opposition to Christ’s teachings, proving Republicans are some of the biggest hypocrites on this planet.

 

 

 

Per Wikipedia, the definition of Fascism is; “a form of radical authoritarian ultranationalism, characterized by dictatorial power, forcible suppression of opposition and control of industry and commerce. Fascists believe that liberal democracy is obsolete and they regard the complete mobilization of society under a totalitarian one-party state as necessary to prepare a nation for armed conflict and to respond effectively to economic difficulties. Such a state is led by a strong leader—such as a dictator and a martial government composed of the members of the governing fascist party”.

Republicans are proving they’re Anti-Democratic Authoritarian Fascist, rigging elections by Gerrymandering, Voter Obstruction, Voter Purges passing laws to Overturn Election Results, making it illegal to give water to people waiting in long lines, decreasing Drop Boxes and decreasing the days people can vote. They refuse to eliminate the UN-Democratic Electoral College which has made 2 of their unpopular candidates President who LOST the popular vote… Trump in 2016 and George W. Bush in 2000.

Republicans fit all of Characteristics of Fascism described in the article below.

Fourteen Characteristics of Fascism Article by Dr. Lawrence Britt

1. Disdain for the Recognition of Human Rights – Because of fear of enemies and the need for security, the people in fascist regimes are persuaded that human rights can be ignored in certain cases because of “need.” The people tend to look the other way or even approve of torture, summary executions, assassinations, long incarcerations of prisoners, etc.

2. Identification of Enemies/Scapegoats as a Unifying Cause – The people are rallied into a unifying patriotic frenzy over the need to eliminate a perceived common threat or foe: racial , ethnic or religious minorities; liberals; communists; socialists, terrorists, etc.

3. Supremacy of the Military – Even when there are widespread domestic problems, the military is given a disproportionate amount of government funding, and the domestic agenda is neglected. Soldiers and military service are glamorized.

4. Rampant Sexism – The governments of fascist nations tend to be almost exclusively male-dominated. Under fascist regimes, traditional gender roles are made more rigid. Divorce, abortion and homosexuality are suppressed and the state is represented as the ultimate guardian of the family institution.

5. Controlled Mass Media – Sometimes to media is directly controlled by the government, but in other cases, the media is indirectly controlled by government regulation, or sympathetic media spokespeople and executives. Censorship, especially in war time, is very common.

6. Obsession with National Security – Fear is used as a motivational tool by the government over the masses.

7. Religion and Government are Intertwined – Governments in fascist nations tend to use the most common religion in the nation as a tool to manipulate public opinion. Religious rhetoric and terminology is common from government leaders, even when the major tenets of the religion are diametrically opposed to the government’s policies or actions.

8. Corporate Power is Protected – The industrial and business aristocracy of a fascist nation often are the ones who put the government leaders into power, creating a mutually beneficial business/government relationship and power elite.

9. Labor Power is Suppressed – Because the organizing power of labor is the only real threat to a fascist government, labor unions are either eliminated entirely, or are severely suppressed.

10. Disdain for Intellectuals and the Arts – Fascist nations tend to promote and tolerate open hostility to higher education, and academia. It is not uncommon for professors and other academics to be censored or even arrested. Free expression in the arts and letters is openly attacked.

11. Obsession with Crime and Punishment – Under fascist regimes, the police are given almost limitless power to enforce laws. The people are often willing to overlook police abuses and even forego civil liberties in the name of patriotism. There is often a national police force with virtually unlimited power in fascist nations.

12. Rampant Cronyism and Corruption – Fascist regimes almost always are governed by groups of friends and associates who appoint each other to government positions and use governmental power and authority to protect their friends from accountability. It is not uncommon in fascist regimes for national resources and even treasures to be appropriated or even outright stolen by government leaders.

13. Manipulate & Control elections – Sometimes elections in fascist nations are a complete sham. Other times elections are manipulated by smear campaigns against or even assassination of opposition candidates, use of legislation to control voting numbers or political district boundaries, and manipulation of the media. Fascist nations also typically use their judiciaries to manipulate & control elections.

14. Powerful and Continuing Nationalism – Fascist regimes tend to make constant use of patriotic mottos, slogans, symbols, songs, and other paraphernalia. Flags are seen everywhere, as are flag symbols on clothing and in public displays.

 

NOTE THE SIMILARITIES BETWEEN REPUBLICANS AND ISLAMIC TERRORISTS

 

Radical Right Wing Republicans can be easily spotted in Pick-up Trucks with flags (similar to Islamic Terrorist in pick-up trucks with flags).

Here’s a few of the behaviors and ideologies Republicans and Islamic ISIS Terrorist have in common;

  1. Bullies
  2. Religious extremists
  3. Extremists who resort to Violence to get their way (January 6, 2021 riots to overturn legitimate election which their leader, Trump lost)
  4. Condone eliminating a free press and democracy
  5. Extreme Patriotism. Flags are seen everywhere, as are flag symbols on clothing and in public displays.

The basis of fascism’s support of violent action in politics is connected to social Darwinism. Fascist movements have commonly held social Darwinist views of nations, races, and societies. They say that nations and races must purge themselves of socially and biologically weak or degenerate people, while simultaneously promoting the creation of strong people, in order to survive in a world defined by perpetual national and racial conflict.

 

The Rules of the Demagogue | #RejectGOPFascism

 

Republicans are engaging in Nazi tactics by “Accusing the other side of that which THEY are Guilty” and repeating Trump’s “BIG LIE” that he won the 2020 election.

 

Republicans are constantly demonizing Antifa (Anti-Fascist) as being BAD. Being against Antifa means your against Democracy and FOR anti-democratic, authoritarian Fascism. German Nazis were Fascist.

POLL: Only 36% Of Republicans Support Freedom Of The Press

43% of Republicans think President Trump “should have the authority to close news outlets engaged in bad behavior,” while only 36% disagreed with the statement, according to an Ipsos poll

 

Trump Supporters Are Excited By The Idea Of Him Being A Dictator

Donald Trump did exactly what most of us expected, and he actually convinced his base that he SHOULD be a dictator if he gets back into office, and that it is somehow a good thing to trample on the Constitution. Ever since Trump first made his dictator comments, his supporters have been quick to defend and ultimately offer their praise of the comments, and that part isn’t dying down, either. A new poll also shows that a strong number of Iowa voters say that his rhetoric makes it MORE likely that they will support him.

 

 

Republicans Want to END Democracy

Videos & info on this page show how Trump and Republicans want to end Democracy, End Freedom of Speech, End Freedom of the Press, End Women’s Rights, Jail / Imprison Trump opponents / critics and those who says things he doesn’t like or disagrees with.

 

Listen to Republicans admit they want to end Democracy. They plan to turn the United States into a Fascist Dictatorship where criticizing Trump could get you imprisoned or executed as an ‘enemy of the state’. The Radical Right Wing dominated “Supreme Court” ruled in Trump favor giving him “Absolute Immunity” so he can’t be held accountable for lawless actions as long as those action can be rationalized as part of his “Presidential Duties”. Therefore, criticizing Trump could be rationalized as a ‘threat to the republic’. This is how citizens in North Korea and Russia are dealt with.

‘Project 2025’: Trump & Radical Right Wing Republicans Plan to turn the United States into a Fascist Dictatorship

 

Video by the Lincoln Project details how if Trump becomes President in 2025, he could have opponents and critics ‘arrested’, ‘locked up’ & ‘executed’ and media outlets critical of him, shut down. It would be the end of Freedom of Speech, Freedom of the Press, the Rule of Law, the Constitution and the United States.

 

Hard-Right Republicans want to replace democracy: Anti-Trump conservative

“Democracy is hard work and they want a shortcut to achieve their craven policy ends without doing the work,” Rick Wilson told Newsweek.

Per the above article: “Some on the far-right, including within the Republican Party, are seeking to “replace democracy” with a system that “they alone benefit from,” according to a leading anti-Trump conservative.

Rick Wilson, a former GOP media consultant who co-founded The Lincoln Project, a conservative campaign group opposed to Donald Trump, told Newsweek when asked why some conservatives have been sympathetic towards Vladimir Putin’s authoritarian regime.

They want to put the control of all the people in the hands of a government that reflects their own ideological bias. It’s easy to see why they would want to replace democracy with a system that allows that they alone benefit from.”

Trump’s Promises and Plans for 2025 — in his own words

There’s no mystery about what Donald Trump wants to do in his second term. He’s told us his plans and Project 2025 is how Trump’s rhetoric will become an authoritarian reality for us all. Here’s what he has promised, in his own words.

1 – Pardon power
Trump will use his pardon power to shield himself and his allies from criminal accountability

2 – Directing Investigations Against Critics and Rivals
He’s promised to order the Department of Justice to investigate people who challenge him.

3 – Regulatory Retaliation
Trump has also promised to purge professional staff and experts inside the government and replace them with “Yes” Men and Women.

4 – Federal Law Enforcement Overreach
Trump plans to explode police powers in ways that would make America unrecognizable.

5 – Domestic Deployment of the Military
Trump wants to use the military to police our streets and send troops to our cities over the will of state and local officials.

6 – The Autocrat Won’t Leave
AND, like he showed us in 2020 and on January 6th, that if he is elected to office, he will be unwilling to leave. He’s willing to use every tool at his disposal to remain in power.

These promises are not just words; they are tactics pulled straight from the authoritarian playbook.

 

Project 2025 is Republican’s Radical plan to make Trump a Dictator by increasing his authority over every part of the Federal Government so he can end Democracy, end Freedom of Speech and eliminate Freedom of the Press by shutting down media outlets which have been critical of him and order the Department of Justice to prosecute political enemies.

 

Three former Trump White House staffers says a 2nd Trump term would be ‘the end of American democracy as we know it’

 

TRUMP WILL END FREEDOM OF SPEECH

The above video shows Trump taking about putting people in jail for saying & doing things he doesn’t like (or for failing to do what he wants) and having FCC licenses of news outlets revoked

 

In an interview with Andy Borowitz from The New Yorker on May 9, 2018, Trump Stated about the United States Constitution; “I’ve seen a lot of bad deals in my life, but this Constitution is a total mess. We need to tear it up and start over. The first thing we do when we pull out of the Constitution is get rid of two of those branches. He also called the First Amendment “something that really has to go. No one in his right mind would put something like that in a Constitution. Russia doesn’t have it. North Korea doesn’t have it. All the best countries don’t have it.”

  • September, 24 2024 suggested it should be “illegal” to rebuke judicial decisions or try and advocate in favor of a certain decision. “It should be illegal, what happens,” Trump told a crowd in Pennsylvania. “You know, you have these guys like playing the ref, like the great Bobby Knight. These people should be put in jail the way they talk about our judges and our justices, trying to get them to sway their vote, sway their decision.”
  • On November 29 2023, Trump stated that he wants the ‘Federal Government to come down Hard on MSNBC’ for its criticism of him.
  • On Veterans Day, November 11, 2023 Trump stated; ”We pledge to you that we will root out the communists, Marxists, fascists and the radical left thugs that live like vermin within the confines of our country that lie and steal and cheat on elections”.
  • In response to outrage over Trump’s ‘vermin’ comment, his campaign spokesperson Steven Cheung stated about Trump opponents; “their entire existence will be crushed when President Trump returns to the White House.”
  • On March 28, 2024 Steve Bannon stated: “After we’ve won, the Accountability Project’s going to start and it’s going to be thorough this time. It’s going to be they’re going to be in prison”.
  • On “The View” (Dec 6, 2023) co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin, who served as White House Director of Strategic Communications for Trump, claimed he wanted to have a member of his own staff ‘executed’ for leaking a story about him going to the bunker during the George Floyd protests.
  • Trump supporter Mike Davis stated he’d pardon all of the January 6 rioters, toss opponents in “the gulag” and ‘caging migrant kids would be “glorious’.
  • Kash Patel, who may be a member of Trump’s lawless administration stated; “We will go out and find the conspirators, not just in government but in the media,” Patel said. “Yes, 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.
  • On May 23rd, 2024, Former Trump White House advisor Steve Bannon stated: “We mock your fear, we want your fear. We are going to hold everyone who opposes Trump responsible”

Trump & his cronies have made it clear they intend to seek retribution against political enemies, eliminate Freedom of Speech and shut down news outlets which are critical of him. They have made it clear; if Trump is elected President they plan on engaging in a reign of LAWLESSNESS and TERROR, where dissenters are arrested, locked up and executed, similar to Putin’s Russia.

 

Let’s not forget how Trump praises brutal, murderous dictators like Kim Jong Un and Putin.

 

Republicans have declared WAR on the Truth and Democracy

 

Authoritarian expert exposes the danger of a 2nd Trump Presidency and Republican’s Radical Right Wing Project 2025

 

Representative Gerry Connolly explains how Trump and his cronies intend to “terminate rules, regulations & articles, even those in the Constitution”, invoke the “Insurrection Act”, declare “Martial Law” to Quash Protests and replace 50,000 Federal Employees with Trump loyalists.

 

Trump cronies like Steve Bannon has promised to use “Shock Troops” to take over the government shown in the above video.

 

Trump team argues assassination of rivals is covered by presidential immunity

Trump believes he should have Presidential Immunity to do anything he wants. On Jan. 9, 2024, Trump’s legal team argued to the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals that a President should be able to order SEAL Team Six to kill a political opponent and be immune to criminal prosecution. On July 1, 2024, the Radical Right Wing dominated Supreme Court agreed and gave Trump the authority of a Dictator by granting him “Absolute Immunity”. He’s promised to ‘root out’ those who he thinks are ‘communists, marxists and ‘the radical left’. This means anyone who opposes him.

Trump’s statements prove he intends to violate his Oath of Office, the United States Constitution, Citizens rights, eliminate Freedom of Speech and shut down media outlets which have been critical of him.

 

Trump has proven to be a lawless Pathological Liar, Narcissistic Sociopath and a clear & present danger which the RNC is recklessly unleashing onto the American public by enabling, sponsoring and promoting on they’re ticket.

 

 

If a Republican wins the Presidential election in 2024, they’re planning to implement “Project 2025” which would give their leader the power of a Dictator.

As stated by wikipedia; “Project 2025 seeks to place the entire Executive Branch of the U.S. federal government under direct presidential control, eliminating the independence of the Department of Justice, Federal Communications Commission, Federal Trade Commission and other agencies. To reshape the Executive Branch of the U.S. federal government in the event of a Republican victory in the 2024 United States presidential election. Established in 2022, the project seeks to recruit thousands to come to Washington, D.C., to replace existing employees to restructure the Executive Branch of the federal government as to further the agenda and policies of Donald Trump. The plan would perform a quick takeover of the entire U.S. federal government under a maximalist version of the unitary executive theory – a theory proposing the president of the United States have absolute power of the executive branch – upon inauguration”.

“The development of the plan is led by the Heritage Foundation, a conservative U.S. think tank. It includes widespread changes across the entire government, particularly with regard to economic policy and the role of the federal government and federal agencies”.

Why Republicans Don’t Want A Democracy

 

RADICAL RIGHT WING REPUBLICANS WANT THE UNITED STATES TO BECOME LIKE VICTOR ORBÁN’S HUNGARY

Videos show how Autocrat Victor Orbán & his Radical Right Wing Party eliminated Democracy in Hungary by taking over the Government and turned it into a authoritarian fascist one-party-rule dictatorship where elections & the courts are rigged, all of the media is state controlled and praise for Victor Orbán Propaganda is seen everywhere. This is what Trump and Republicans want to do to the United States.

 

Hungary Is a Version of What Republicans Wants For The U.S.

Chief national correspondent at the New York Times, Mark Leibovich, and former FBI Assistant Director for Counterintelligence, Frank Figliuzzi, react to Fox News’ anchor Tucker Carlson’s bizarre choice to host his show from Hungary, a country with an authoritarian regime.

Right-Wingers turned Hungary into a Anti-Democratic Fascist One-Party-Rule Dictatorship. It will happen here unless Republicans are STOPPED.

Republicans have passed laws to overturn / override election results in states they control and put partisans in control of counting the votes, allowing them to make sure only Republicans are declared the winner.

Fiona Hill Discusses how Democracy in the United States is Under Assault

 

Trump & Republicans are following in Nazi Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels footsteps by telling the BIG LIE that Trump won the 2020 election while “Accusing the other side of that which they are guilty”.

Today’s Republicans are Anti-Democratic Fascist, determined to seize and maintain power by any means necessary.

 

Republicans are constantly demonizing Antifa (Anti-Fascist) as being BAD. Being against Antifa means your against Democracy and FOR anti-democratic, authoritarian Fascism. German Nazis were Right-Wing “Conservative” Fascist.

The full name of Hitler’s party was Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei. In English, that translates to National Socialist German Workers’ Party. But it was not a socialist party; it was a right-wing, ultranationalist party dedicated to racial purity, territorial expansion and anti-Semitism and total political control.

The Nazi party was largely supported by small-business men and conservative industrialists (just like today’s American Republican party).

Thousands of solders from around the world fought and died to defeat Fascism in WWII. We owe it to them and ourselves to continue fighting for freedom and against Anti-Democratic Fascists who wants to take away our freedom and democracy. Enemies of Democracy should be REJECTED and DEFEATED.

Republicans equate Black Lives Matter as being one and the same as Antifa. They’ll say “BLM Antifa Protestors” in the same sentence as though a BLM protestor is a automatically a member of “Antifa”. Not true.

Antifa is an ideology, not an organization” stated FBI Director Chris Wray in sworn testimony to congress on September 17, 2020.

Republicans OK with Violence to Seize Power

 

Republicans are starting to look like authoritarian parties in Hungary and Turkey, study finds | CNN

The Republicans have become more illiberal and populist in recent decades and are now starting to resemble autocratic parties like Hungary’s Fidesz and Turkey’s AKP, according to a new study from Sweden.

Per the above article’ “Experts from the V-Dem Institute at the University of Gothenburg in Sweden stated US Republicans are starting to look a lot like authoritarian parties like Hungary’s Fidesz and Turkey’s AKP.

“What we see is that the disrespect of political opponents, the encouragement of violence and also the violation of minority rights … they have all clearly increased with the Republican Party in recent years, since [President Donald Trump] came in the leadership but also before that,” Anna Luehrmann, V-Dem’s deputy director and one of the lead authors of the study, told CNN”.

 

Trump stated regarding North Korea’s brutal dictator Kim Jong Un… “He’s the head of a country and he’s the strong head. Don’t let anyone think anything different. He speaks and his people sit up at attention. I want my people to do the same.”

 

 

Republicans fit all of the Characteristics of Fascism described below

Fourteen Characteristics of Fascism Article by Dr. Lawrence Britt

1. Disdain for the Recognition of Human Rights – Because of fear of enemies and the need for security, the people in fascist regimes are persuaded that human rights can be ignored in certain cases because of “need.” The people tend to look the other way or even approve of torture, summary executions, assassinations, long incarcerations of prisoners, etc.

2. Identification of Enemies/Scapegoats as a Unifying Cause – The people are rallied into a unifying patriotic frenzy over the need to eliminate a perceived common threat or foe: racial , ethnic or religious minorities; liberals; communists; socialists, terrorists, etc.

3. Supremacy of the Military – Even when there are widespread domestic problems, the military is given a disproportionate amount of government funding, and the domestic agenda is neglected. Soldiers and military service are glamorized.

4. Rampant Sexism – The governments of fascist nations tend to be almost exclusively male-dominated. Under fascist regimes, traditional gender roles are made more rigid. Divorce, abortion and homosexuality are suppressed and the state is represented as the ultimate guardian of the family institution.

5. Controlled Mass Media – Sometimes to media is directly controlled by the government, but in other cases, the media is indirectly controlled by government regulation, or sympathetic media spokespeople and executives. Censorship, especially in war time, is very common.

6. Obsession with National Security – Fear is used as a motivational tool by the government over the masses.

7. Religion and Government are Intertwined – Governments in fascist nations tend to use the most common religion in the nation as a tool to manipulate public opinion. Religious rhetoric and terminology is common from government leaders, even when the major tenets of the religion are diametrically opposed to the government’s policies or actions.

8. Corporate Power is Protected – The industrial and business aristocracy of a fascist nation often are the ones who put the government leaders into power, creating a mutually beneficial business/government relationship and power elite.

9. Labor Power is Suppressed – Because the organizing power of labor is the only real threat to a fascist government, labor unions are either eliminated entirely, or are severely suppressed.

10. Disdain for Intellectuals and the Arts – Fascist nations tend to promote and tolerate open hostility to higher education, and academia. It is not uncommon for professors and other academics to be censored or even arrested. Free expression in the arts and letters is openly attacked.

11. Obsession with Crime and Punishment – Under fascist regimes, the police are given almost limitless power to enforce laws. The people are often willing to overlook police abuses and even forego civil liberties in the name of patriotism. There is often a national police force with virtually unlimited power in fascist nations.

12. Rampant Cronyism and Corruption – Fascist regimes almost always are governed by groups of friends and associates who appoint each other to government positions and use governmental power and authority to protect their friends from accountability. It is not uncommon in fascist regimes for national resources and even treasures to be appropriated or even outright stolen by government leaders.

13. Manipulate & Control elections – Sometimes elections in fascist nations are a complete sham. Other times elections are manipulated by smear campaigns against or even assassination of opposition candidates, use of legislation to control voting numbers or political district boundaries, and manipulation of the media. Fascist nations also typically use their judiciaries to manipulate & control elections.

14. Powerful and Continuing Nationalism – Fascist regimes tend to make constant use of patriotic mottos, slogans, symbols, songs, and other paraphernalia. Flags are seen everywhere, as are flag symbols on clothing and in public displays.

Here’s ‘stable genius’ Donald Trump in his own bizarre words

Trump Plans to Declare Martial Law to QUASH Protests

 

Trump Wants to Use the Military Against His Domestic Enemies. Congress Must Act.

The Insurrection Act – which gives the president unchecked power to deploy the military on American streets – is a threat to democracy.

Per the above article: “Trump Wants to Use the Military Against His Domestic Enemies. The Insurrection Act — which gives the president unchecked power to deploy the military on American streets”.

“As recent reports have revealed, former President Donald Trump and his allies are making plans for how a second Trump administration would use the powers of the federal government to punish Trump’s critics and political opponents. Among other things, Trump would reportedly invoke the Insurrection Act — a law that gives the president nearly unchecked powers to use the military as a domestic police force — on his first day in office, so that he could quash any public protests against him.

Federal military forces are usually barred from enforcing civilian laws by the Posse Comitatus Act. This prohibition reflects a tradition in American law and political thought that views an army turned inward as an inherent threat to democracy and individual liberty. But the Posse Comitatus Act is not an absolute rule. It allows federal troops to participate in law enforcement when doing so has been expressly authorized by Congress. The Insurrection Act provides that authorization”.

 

Trump’s Promises and Plans for 2025 — in his own words

There’s no mystery about what Donald Trump wants to do in his second term. He’s told us his plans and Project 2025 is how Trump’s rhetoric will become an authoritarian reality for us all. Here’s what he has promised, in his own words.

1 – Pardon power
Trump will use his pardon power to shield himself and his allies from criminal accountability

2 – Directing Investigations Against Critics and Rivals
He’s promised to order the Department of Justice to investigate people who challenge him.

3 – Regulatory Retaliation
Trump has also promised to purge professional staff and experts inside the government and replace them with “Yes” Men and Women.

4 – Federal Law Enforcement Overreach

5 – Domestic Deployment of the Military
Trump wants to use the military to police our streets and send troops to our cities over the will of state and local officials.

6 – The Autocrat Won’t Leave
AND, like he showed us in 2020 and on January 6th, that if he is elected to office, he will be unwilling to leave. He’s willing to use every tool at his disposal to remain in power.

These promises are not just words; they are tactics pulled straight from the authoritarian playbook.

 

The Associated Press details Donald Trump’s repeated “hints” of an “expanded role” for the military and the lack of “guardrails” to restrain him.

 

Let’s not forget how Trump used National Guard troops to forcefully push back peaceful protesters outside the White House to clear a way for Trump to do a photo-op in front of a church to hold a bible upside down.

 

 

Representative Gerry Connolly explains how Trump plans replace 50,000 Federal Employees with Trump loyalists, gut the Pendleton Civil Service Act of 1883, invocation of the Insurrection Act on day one to QUASH protests against him. Termination of all rules, regulations & articles, even those in the Constitution if Trump is elected for a 2nd term as President.

 

Little-known lawyer pitched Trump on ‘martial law’ plan

Trump in December 2020 was entertaining fringe legal advice from a wider group of outside lawyers than was previously known as he sought to block the 2020 election result. That included hearing directly from a little-known conservative lawyer advising Trump to take steps that effectively could be called declaration of “martial law,” the New York Times reported, in another instance of fringe actors having pushed the President to take extreme steps after the 2020 election.

Trump Plans To Use Military To Attack Liberal Cities

Donald Trump has made it perfectly clear that he intends to invoke The Insurrection Act if he gets back into the White House, and has suggested that he would have the military march into blue cities and states. This would be done, according to Trump, to stop the “crime” that liberal cities are allegedly suffering from, but experts are sounding the alarm that this is just a farce. Trump will crush his political enemies with the full might of the military, and that is something that isn’t being talked about enough.

 

Republicans OK with Violence to Seize Power

 

March 28, 2024 Steve Bannon stated: “After we’ve won the Accountability Project’s going to start and it’s going to be thorough this time. It’s going to be they’re going to be in prison”.

 

Trump posted & stated on 11/11/2023; ”We pledge to you that we will root out the communists, Marxists, fascists and the radical left thugs that live like vermin within the confines of our country that lie and steal and cheat on elections”.

 

In response to outrage over Trump’s ‘vermin’ comment, his campaign spokesperson Steven Cheung stated about Trump opponents; “their entire existence will be crushed when President Trump returns to the White House.”

Democrats are not Socialist, Marxist or Communists. Trump and Republicans are the ones who LIE , cheat and tried to steal the 2020 election.

 

The above video proves it’s TRUMP who is the liar. The Washington Post reported that Trump made over 30,000 false or misleading statements during his time in office.

 

 

Trump and Republicans are the REAL Fascist

 

Trump supporter Mike Davis stated he’d pardon all of the January 6 rioters, toss opponents in “the gulag” and ‘caging migrant kids would be “glorious’.

Below is the post Davis referenced in the above video about putting Professor of History, Ruth Ben-Ghiat in the “Gulag”. Her crime? Being critical of Trump and calling him out for his Autocrat, Authoritarian, Fascist behavior which she claims is similar to Hitler & Mussolini.

 

 

 

Kash Patel, who may be a member of Trump’s administration, stated in the above video; “We will go out and find the conspirators, not just in government but in the media,” Patel said. “Yes, 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.

 

Steve Bannon Calls on “SHOCK TROOPS” to Take Over Government

 

Trump says members of Jan. 6 Select Committee should go to jail

Under Republicans “Project 2025” plans, Trump could order his Attorney General to arrest and prosecute anyone for no reason at all. Trump even mentioned this in the above video saying if he had a political rival who was doing well and “beating me very badly I’d say go down and Indict them”. “That means that if I win and somebody wants to run against me, I call my attorney general, I say listen, indict him.

 

On “The View” (Dec 6, 2023) co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin, who served as White House Director of Strategic Communications for Trump, claimed he wanted to have a member of his own staff ‘executed’ for leaking a story about him going to the bunker during the George Floyd protests.

Trump behaving like an Authoritarian Fascist Dictator

 

Trump saying he has “Total Authority” over when to re-open the country and insinuating if States don’t follow his orders it would be Mutiny is yet another example that he is a Wanna-Be King & Dictator.

 

Throughout his presidency, Trump has, at every turn, advanced extreme legal arguments and made excuses to avoid the traditional oversight that previous presidents have accepted. In the process, he has negated the checks and balances that are at the heart of our constitutional system, and elevated himself to a king-like position.

 

While campaigning in Iowa, Trump hinted at expanding the use of the military under the Insurrection Act. He specifically named blue cities like New York and Chicago calling them “crime dens.” “The next time, I’m not waiting. One of the things I did was let them run it and we’re going to show how bad a job they do”.

Trump Promises to JAIL Critics, Shut Down Critical Media

Videos and articles on this page show Trump if obsessed with revenge against those who criticized him and held him legally accountable for his reprehensible conduct. Wants to JAIL critics & shut down media outlets critical of him. Project 2025 and the corrupt, partisan radical Right Wing GOP dominated Supreme Court gave him “Absolute Immunity” and the Power of a Dictator.

 

“Enemy from within”

 

Trump & his Radical Right Wing MAGA Cronies threatens to JAIL critics, plots revenge, retribution & imprisonment of Political opponents, shut down TV Networks which criticize him and says things he doesn’t like.

Per the above article, “Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump threatened to jail people “involved in unscrupulous behavior” related to voting in the 2024 election, suggesting without evidence that the election could be stolen from him — and prompting widespread condemnation from election officials who said such rhetoric could provoke violence”.

 

 

“WHEN I WIN, those people that CHEATED will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the Law, which will include long term prison sentences so that this Depravity of Justice does not happen again,” Trump wrote on Saturday on his Truth Social platform”.

 

TRUMP and REPUBLICANS are the ones who CHEATED and attempted to STEAL the 2020 election. TRUMP and REPUBLICANS who tried to steal the 2020 election and those making plans to steal the 2024 election (by claiming ‘irregularities’ and refusing to certify the election if Trump loses) are the ones who should get ‘long term prison sentences so that this Depravity of Justice does not happen again‘.

 

Trump threatens to jail political opponents if reelected

Trump is pledging on social media to prosecute political opponents if he wins reelection in November. His threats are related to false claims that the 2020 election was stolen and that some are now trying somehow to rig the 2024 election.

 

Donald Trump threatens to imprison Biden, Harris, Pelosi, and others. Experts are worried

Donald Trump is threatening to prosecute and imprison his political enemies. Experts on democracy and the rule of law told USA TODAY the risk is real.

Per the above USA Today article – “Donald Trump threatens to imprison Biden, Harris, Pelosi, and others… Richard Painter, who was a White House ethics lawyer for President George W. Bush, likened the comments to a vision of President Vladimir Putin’s Russia, where Putin’s political opponents end up behind bars on charges such as “extremism” or “treason” after criticizing his regime.

“It’s extremely dangerous for democracy, this idea that the winner just puts the loser in prison, prosecutes the loser,” Painter told USA TODAY.

Trump Campaign National Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told USA TODAY in an email that Trump “believes anyone who breaks the law should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, including criminals who engage in election fraud.”

“Without free and fair elections, you can’t have a country. Ask Venezuela,” Leavitt said.

The former president has previously suggested prosecuting his rivals would be legitimate revenge for his own legal troubles, which include one criminal conviction in New York state court and three other criminal cases. Painter said that argument ignores some stark differences between Trump’s own situation and what he is threatening to do.

“Joe Biden never campaigned on a promise to put Donald Trump in prison,” Painter said. “When Donald Trump engaged in the conduct he did, an independent prosecutor was appointed,” he added, referring to special counsel Jack Smith, who has significant independence from Justice Department leadership and secured grand jury indictments in the two federal cases Trump faces, one alleging Trump unlawfully attempted to subvert the 2020 election and the other alleging he mishandled classified documents”.

Trump Says Anyone Who Criticizes Supreme Court Should Be Thrown In Jail

Pretty rich that Trump wants to jail anyone who criticizes HIS Radical Right Wing Supreme Court, yet he’s went after Judges who’s held him accountable and called them ‘lunatics’ and other derogatory names. Just another example of what a lunatic Trump is and why he’s unfit to be a DOG CATCHER. It’s an outrage that he’s legally allowed to run for President after inciting an insurrection to overturn the 2020 election which caused 5 deaths.

 

The above video shows that Trump is pathological liar, narcissistic sociopath and a clear & present danger which the RNC is recklessly unleashing onto the American public by enabling, sponsoring and promoting on they’re ticket.

American psychologist, psychotherapist and former part-time assistant professor at Johns Hopkins University Medical School, Dr. John Gartner stated; “If we could construct a psychiatric Frankenstein monster, we could not create a leader more dangerously mentally ill than Donald Trump,” Gartner began. “He is a paranoid, psychopathic, narcissist who is divorced from reality and lashes out impulsively at his imagined enemies. And this is someone who is handling the nuclear codes.

Former Professor at Harvard Medical School, Dr. Lance Dodes suggested; “He lies in the way anybody who scams people does. He’s tries to sell an idea or a product by telling you something that is untrue. There is also the kind of lie he has that in a way is more serious — that he has a loose grip on reality“.

Ted Cruz calls Trump a “Pathological Liar who doesn’t know the difference between truth and lies” and claims Trump “is a narcissist at a level this country’s never seen”.

Even ex-Speaker of the House, Paul Ryan referred to Trump as an ‘Authoritarian Narcissist’. No normal person would lie with impunity like Trump has (over 30,000 times while President), refuse to admit he lost the election, claim he won after he lost, then instigate a coup and insurrection to overturn the election after he lost.

 

Project 2025 Exposed

 

Trump’s Promises and Plans for 2025 — in his own words

There’s no mystery about what Donald Trump wants to do in his second term. He’s told us his plans and Project 2025 is how Trump’s rhetoric will become an authoritarian reality for us all. Here’s what he has promised, in his own words.

1 – Pardon power
Trump will use his pardon power to shield himself and his allies from criminal accountability

2 – Directing Investigations Against Critics and Rivals
He’s promised to order the Department of Justice to investigate people who challenge him.

3 – Regulatory Retaliation
Trump has also promised to purge professional staff and experts inside the government and replace them with “Yes” Men and Women.

4 – Federal Law Enforcement Overreach
Trump plans to explode police powers in ways that would make America unrecognizable.

5 – Domestic Deployment of the Military
Trump wants to use the military to police our streets and send troops to our cities over the will of state and local officials.

6 – The Autocrat Won’t Leave
AND, like he showed us in 2020 and on January 6th, that if he is elected to office, he will be unwilling to leave. He’s willing to use every tool at his disposal to remain in power.

These promises are not just words; they are tactics pulled straight from the authoritarian playbook.

 

Trump & The End of Democracy

 

 

Project 2025 is Republican’s Radical plan to make Trump a Dictator by increasing his authority over every part of the Federal Government so he can end Democracy, end Freedom of Speech and eliminate Freedom of the Press by shutting down media outlets which have been critical of him and order the Department of Justice to prosecute political enemies.

 

‘Project 2025’: Trump & Radical Right Wing Republicans Plan to turn the United States into a Fascist Dictatorship

 

Reign of terror which could begin if Trump is elected President

 

Representative Gerry Connolly explains Trump and his cronies have openly stated they intend to “terminate rules, regulations & articles, even those in the Constitution”, invoke the “Insurrection Act” & declare “Martial Law” to Quash Protests, use “Shock Troops” to take over the government, replace 50,000 Federal Employees with Trump loyalists, eliminate Freedom of Speech and shut down media outlets which have been critical of him.

 

Republicans admitting they want a dictatorship and want to eliminate Democracy.

 

Trump supporter Mike Davis stated he’d pardon all of the January 6 rioters, toss opponents in “the gulag” and ‘caging migrant kids would be “glorious’.

Below is the post Davis referenced in the above video about putting Professor of History, Ruth Ben-Ghiat in the “Gulag”. Her crime? Being critical of Trump and calling him out for his Autocrat, Authoritarian, Fascist behavior which she claims is similar to Hitler & Mussolini.

 

March 28, 2024 Steve Bannon stated: “After we’ve won the Accountability Project’s going to start and it’s going to be thorough this time. It’s going to be they’re going to be in prison”.

 

Steve Bannon using TERRORIST threats saying; ‘we mock your fear, we want your fear’. We want you to be afraid because we are going to be coming after those who oppose Donald Trump and he will be imbued with authority to punish you.

 

Kash Patel, who may be a member of Trump’s administration, stated in the above video; “We will go out and find the conspirators, not just in government but in the media,” Patel said. “Yes, 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.

These types of statements are INSANE and show a total disregard for the United States Constitution and Citizens Rights. TRUMP and REPUBLICANS are the ones who LIED and attempted to RIG & STEAL the 2020 election. Trump and those in his potential “administration” have made it clear; they plan on engaging in a reign of LAWLESSNESS and TERROR.

 

PROOF Trump Wants to End Freedom of the Press

On November 29 2023, Trump stated that he wants the ‘Federal Government to come down Hard on MSNBC’ for its criticism of him.

 

In an interview with Andy Borowitz from The New Yorker on May 9, 2018, Trump Stated about the United States Constitution; “I’ve seen a lot of bad deals in my life, but this Constitution is a total mess. We need to tear it up and start over. The first thing we do when we pull out of the Constitution is get rid of two of those branches. He also called the First Amendment “something that really has to go. No one in his right mind would put something like that in a Constitution. Russia doesn’t have it. North Korea doesn’t have it. All the best countries don’t have it.”

 

During a speech on Veterans Day, former president Trump stated: ‘”We pledge to you that we will root out the communists, Marxists, fascists and the radical left thugs that live like vermin within the confines of our country that lie and steal and cheat on elections”.

 

Trump posted & stated on 11/11/2023; ”We pledge to you that we will root out the communists, Marxists, fascists and the radical left thugs that live like vermin within the confines of our country that lie and steal and cheat on elections”.

 

In response to outrage over Trump’s ‘vermin’ comment, his campaign spokesperson Steven Cheung stated about Trump opponents; “their entire existence will be crushed when President Trump returns to the White House.”

Democrats are NOT Socialist, Marxist or Communists. Trump and Republicans are the ones who LIE , cheat and tried to steal the 2020 election.

Trump’s insane statements prove he intends to violate his Oath of Office, the United States Constitution and Citizens Rights on DAY ONE. His claiming he’s only going to be a Dictator for ONE DAY is BS. Let’s not forget how Fact Checkers found Trump LIED over 30,000 times while President, so he has no credibility. He did everything possible to stay in office after he lost in 2020. If he gets back in the White House in 2024, he isn’t leaving… he’s made it clear; he wants to be a DICTATOR FOR LIFE. Under Trump’s rule, the United States could become like Russia where dissenters are arrested, locked up and executed.

 

Trump Has Same Personality as Hitler, Mussolini

Historian and Professor of History and Italian Studies at New York University Ruth Ben-Ghiat discusses how Trump has the same personality as dictators throughout history and talks about his hateful and racist ideology.

Trump is behaving like ruthless dictators Hitler and Mussolini, calling political opponents “vermin” reminiscent of rhetoric used during the 1920s and 1930s, plus promising ‘retribution’.

“Dehumanizing groups of people to encourage followers to collaborate with or tolerate state persecution is exactly what authoritarians do,” said Ruth Ben-Ghiat, author of “Strongmen: Mussolini to the Present.” [source: usatoday.com/story/news/politics/elections/2023/11/13/donald-trump-vermin-hitler-mussolini/71567397007]

 

 

Trump’s ramped-up rhetoric raises new concerns about violence and authoritarianism

 

Trump & Republicans have stated their intentions in ‘Project 2025’ to turn the Presidency into a Presidential Dictatorship by increasing the president’s authority over every part of the federal government so he cannot be restrained or held accountable by congress or the courts. He intends to bring independent agencies under direct presidential control, such as the Federal Communications Commission, which makes and enforces rules for television and internet companies, the Federal Trade Commission, which enforces various antitrust and other consumer protection rules against businesses, the FBI, CIA and Attorney General’s office.

Trump & his cronies have made it clear they want violate the First Amendment & Freedom of Speech by shutting down news outlet which are critical of him. Using plans outlined in ‘Project 2025’ and Martial Law, he could order the FCC to shut down any TV Network which is critical of him or says something he doesn’t like. He could also order his Attorney General to Arrest and Prosecute anyone for no reason at all and that person would have no recourse.

He intends to strip employment protections from tens of thousands of career civil servants, making it easier to replace them if they are deemed obstacles to his agenda. And he plans to scour the intelligence agencies, the State Department and the defense bureaucracies to remove officials not loyal to him. [source: nytimes.com/2023/07/17/us/politics/trump-plans-2025.html]

 

On “The View” (Dec 6, 2023) co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin, who served as White House Director of Strategic Communications for Trump, claimed he wanted to have a member of his own staff ‘executed’ for leaking a story about him going to the bunker during the George Floyd protests.

Incredibility, the out-of-control Radical Right Wing GOP Supreme Court ruled in Trump favor granting him “Absolute Immunity”.

The Rule of Law has been obliterated by this Radical Right Wing GOP dominated Supreme Court.

Trump and allies plot revenge, DOJ control in second term

“Trump and his allies have begun mapping out specific plans for using the federal government to punish critics and opponents should he win a second term, with the former president naming individuals he wants to investigate or prosecute and his associates drafting plans to potentially invoke the Insurrection Act on his first day in office to allow him to deploy the military against civil demonstrations.

In private, Trump has told advisers and friends in recent months that he wants the Justice Department to investigate onetime officials and allies who have become critical of his time in office, including his former chief of staff, John F. Kelly, and former attorney general William P. Barr, as well as his ex-attorney Ty Cobb and former Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman Gen. Mark A. Milley, according to people who have talked to him, who, like others, spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe private conversations. Trump has also talked of prosecuting officials at the FBI and Justice Department, a person familiar with the matter said.

In public, Trump has vowed to appoint a special prosecutor to “go after” President Biden and his family. The former president has frequently made corruption accusations against them that are not supported by available evidence.

To facilitate Trump’s ability to direct Justice Department actions, his associates have been drafting plans to dispense with 50 years of policy and practice intended to shield criminal prosecutions from political considerations. Critics have called such ideas dangerous and unconstitutional.

“It would resemble a banana republic if people came into office and started going after their opponents” said Saikrishna Prakash, a constitutional law professor at the University of Virginia who studies executive power”. [source: washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/11/05/trump-revenge-second-term]

But judgment is coming. When Trump becomes the 47th president, there will be retribution against all those who have promoted evil in this country.”

The fact is, it’s TRUMP & his followers who are promoting evil by lying about the 2020 election being stolen, then engaged in riots, violence and an insurrection (which caused 5 deaths) to overturn the election because TRUMP is such a Narcissistic Psychopath that he refused to admit he lost.

Per the above article; The alarm over Trump’s potential triumph in November is far starker than the fears stoked by past presidents. “A Trump dictatorship is increasingly inevitable,” a recent Washington Post headline warned. The Atlantic devoted an entire issue to the authoritarian horrors in store for America “If Trump Wins.” Every four years or so, Gallup asks Americans ages 15 and up: “Ideally, if you had the opportunity, would you like to move PERMANENTLY to another country?” At the end of George W. Bush’s presidency, the number responding “yes” was 11%. During Barack Obama’s tenure, it was 10%. During Trump’s presidency, it hit 16%. That’s some 40 million Americans who wanted to leave their country behind, for good.

Late last year, my wife and I closed on a deal for an apartment in a hilltop town in Umbria. Soon after, I posted a question for my fellow participants in a Facebook group called Expats in Italy: “Is it just my imagination, but is there an uptick in Americans, in particular, looking to purchase property in Italy?” As the responses poured in, many of them sounded a distinct thematic note.

From a woman in Montana who was planning to move to Tuscany: “Yes, it’s true! I bought a hilltop village home … for a song compared to US prices. Don’t want to be in US anymore. It’s expensive and sick of all the political crap and shootings.”

From a woman in Texas: “An insurrection by a narcissist who couldn’t accept election loss combined with his gun and abortion policies made moving more of a necessity than just a dream.”

From a man in Tennessee: “I’m an American ready to flee America for Italy. I doubt I’m alone.”

Not alone, indeed. Granted, my unscientific survey was limited to a self-selected group of people with a declared fancy for one particular foreign country renowned for its artistic and cultural treasures, scrumptious cuisine, and exquisite landscapes. Still, it was striking that the specter of Donald Trump — a looming shadow I hadn’t even mentioned in my question — was on so many minds.

For those casting a worried eye abroad, the economic draw is not insignificant. When I was looking to buy an apartment in Umbria, in central Italy, I found that prices for turnkey places were about a third of the price of condos in Sedona, Arizona. Property taxes and homeowners insurance are also relatively modest in Italy. Gas is more expensive, but the mouthwatering fare at local restaurants — wild-boar ragù, anyone? — is way cheaper. Politics aside, the dollars-and-cents pull to leave America is strong.

But a rising tide of conservatism at home is clearly driving more Americans to consider a move abroad. The Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade — one of Trump’s signature accomplishments — has aroused widespread anger and discontent. But while America is cracking down on reproductive rights, Europe is expanding them. Abortion is now permitted in nearly all European countries, including Catholic countries such as Portugal, Spain, and Italy. Prompted by tightening US policies, France just enshrined the right to abortion in its constitution — the first country ever to take that landmark step.

‘We’re going to come and get you’: Former FBI deputy director reacts to Steve Bannon’s threat against him

Ex-FBI deputy director under former President Trump Andrew McCabe, responds to comments from Trump ally Steve Bannon in an interview with CNN’s Anderson Cooper.

Trump & his cronies have made it clear they intend to turn the Presidency into a Presidential Dictatorship using plans outlined in ‘Project 2025’, plus seek retribution against political enemies, eliminate Freedom of Speech and shut down news outlets which are critical of him.

The American people should not have to live in fear of a Wannabe Dictator Lunatic becoming President who has threatened retribution against those who refuse to kiss his ass.
