Good morning all my deranged neighbors, suckers, losers, marxists, vermin, fascists, communists and radical left thugs. Ready for the revenge of the Trump Crime Family today?? Take his ridiculous stuff seriously. He means it and there will be violence because of it. Win or lose, they (MAGA) will throw well armed, coordinated and trained people at critical points of our democracy to usurp power. They can only be denied by seeing overwhelming support of Democracy in the electorate.
Fred. I’m dead serious. Those fascist terms are a prelude to the violence being planned. If you don’t see the retribution message causing violence where you live let me tell you I’ve seen it here in my blue State. There are willing armed individuals planning on it.
So am I. That's why I am pounding the drum so hard. Every day I've got MAGA chuds in my replies or comments telling me that I'm suffering from TDS or some bullshit...then they tell me I'll be "back on my knees" or will be the first one they come for. They are serious and they are hungry for the violence.
Timothy Snyder’s book On Tyranny chapter 20: “Be as courageous as you can.“If none of us is prepared to die for freedom, then all of us will die under tyranny.”
And I’m supposed to be on an East Valley Democrats float for Gilbert Days parade in Arizona. Great now I don’t even want to do that for fear of getting shot let alone put yard signs for Biden/Harris on my yard for the 2024 election. Having nightmares after reading Timothy Snyder’s book On Tyranny, where he states people need to be willing to die for their beliefs. Truly frightening, scary and disheartening.
I keep saying it, but it seems as though the majority of Americans aren't listening: If Donald Trump is elected in 2024, that will be the end of this country's democracy. No, I'm not exaggerating and no, it's not hyperbole. The fact that millions of people in this country seem to be just fine with that is appalling to me.
Did I hear that the *giant detention camps* proposed by Project 2025, to hold millions of people prior to their deportation, have names selected by Stephen Miller, such as Dachau and Treblinka?
We know Trump acts like a Mob Boss. If anyone thinks they will benefit from a second Trump term, you are terribly mistaken. Trump will be able to use the force of the federal government to do to EVERYONE what he has one to all the people around him.
You may feel like the most loyal Trump supporter and 100% behind him for now. You may wish Trump to have the power to “clean up” this nation right now. But you’ve seen Trump turn on a dime. Trusted Allie’s get dumped then tarred and feathered. He got a mob ready to hang Mike Pence.
That’s YOUR future under Trump 2.0. You can deputize yourself, send police after your enemies. Guess what? They can send the police after you. Maybe after your Gay nephew. You know you can’t be loyal enough to Trump. Like The Godfather he is going to call in favors. It’s fun to order the police on your enemies. It’s less fun to be called on to rough up whoever they tell you to.
Know that “Donate” button that just auto-renews for Trump? Now imagine it on stuff from the Government. Don’t like it? Who are you going to call? Don’t have the money? FCK YOU. PAY ME. (to mix up Mob movie references.)
Great story Fred. Though, unfortunately, I don’t believe it provides as strong of a beacon against dictatorship as you believe it does. We can’t ignore what the US and other western allies were doing to Iraq and Iran during the 35 years you mentioned. This includes governments as well as a military industrial complex that didn’t give a shit if Iraq and Iran destroyed each other in the 80s. Even with a false positive diplomatic visit to Iraq from a younger Don Rumsfeld.
Saddam was a son of a bitch. No doubt. But the US shares some significant liability in propping up his dictatorship, as has been per usual during our 200 plus years of narcissistic foreign policy history. Saddam’s sadistic rule of law does not excuse the lies the US told the world in order to green light an invasion where Iraqi citizens relief from autocracy was just an ancillary benefit to our 20 year occupation; preparing Baghdad to become surrogate central for the Ayatollahs’ Persian Kingdom.
Maybe we need to continue looking to Germany. Then again, the “Spirit of Saint Louis” Lindbergh and Ford (amongst many more) had other plans for US alliances during the greatest generation’s war. Cheeto Dust King and the Heritage Foundation plans and tactics are not new to this country. Just as sure as Biden and the DIMS are currently the only path to preserving what remains of our democracy.

It's an insane moment and we have to take it seriously. They are telling us their plan and it's isn't funny.
