ANNOUNCEMENT: Since they don’t like being called Christian Nationalists, just use the term “Heretics” instead. “False Teachers” or “Distorters of the Truth” can also be used. They’re just charlatans who choose to identify as Christians. Their pronouns are false/prophet.

Thomas Massie pushed for the release of the Epstein files, and the response has been tens of millions in outside spending, smear campaigns, and coordinated attacks. If this is what they do to a sitting member of Congress, imagine what Epstein survivors face when considering whether to come forward.

20 years ago, President George W. Bush and the GOP of that day proudly extended the Voting Rights Act. And today, that party’s appointees in the Supreme Court nullified the last pillar of it. Because in the last 20 years, the GOP has fully transformed itself into the party of the Confederates.

I predicted for months that taxpayers were going to end up paying for the ballroom. That’s because Trump had “pledges” from people to contribute money to pay for it, not checks. Now Republicans have the excuse they need to make us pay for it. “Customs duties” is bs. bsky.app/profile/acyn...

“They got money for wars, but can’t feed the poor.” — Tupac said it years ago… and here we are. The Pentagon is now asking for an additional $200 BILLION for this war. We always find the money for war. But when it comes to housing, healthcare, or feeding people? Suddenly it’s crickets.

Bovino is just the patsy - a noxious and odious fall guy. Stephen Miller is the architect and prime mover of the whole thing. Everything they do is at his direction - often after his threats. As long as he runs policy in the WH, nothing will change no matter how many Bovinos come and go.

#Trump is checking off each step to his wanna be #dictatorship He has already done 8 out of the 10 without much resistance. I fear the only way to beat him and his cronies is at their own game ~ #SheShed
Steps to Establish a Dictatorship Using a State of Emergency:
Declare the Emergency
Use real or exaggerated threats (e.g., terrorism, natural disasters, unrest) to justify declaring a state of emergency.
Highlight the necessity for swift, centralized action to protect the nation.
Expand Executive Powers
Enact emergency laws or decrees granting extraordinary powers to the executive branch, bypassing legislative and judicial oversight.
Suspend Civil Liberties
Limit freedoms like speech, assembly, and press under the guise of maintaining public order and safety.
Control Media and Information
Censor dissenting voices and take over or co-opt media outlets to propagate the government's narrative and suppress opposition.
Target Opponents
Use emergency powers to arrest or silence political opponents, activists, and independent journalists, labeling them threats to national security
Extend the Emergency Indefinitely
Use ongoing or new crises to justify repeatedly extending the state of emergency, ensuring no return to normal constitutional governance.
Undermine Democratic Institutions
Gradually weaken or dissolve democratic structures such as the legislature, judiciary, and independent agencies under the pretext of emergency reforms.
Consolidate Security Forces
Centralize control over the military and police, using them to enforce emergency measures and suppress dissent.
Enforce Loyalty and Compliance
Introduce measures like loyalty oaths or economic incentives to ensure support from influential groups, including business leaders and bureaucrats.
Legalize Authoritarianism
Pass constitutional changes or laws that embed authoritarian practices, solidifying long-term control even after the
"emergency" ends.
