Less than a year ago this was not thought to be possible.

The Trump regime is about to label protesters as Antifa and use this to end open dissent.

No Kings Day Oct 18 may be the last chance to gather without fear to protest.

Doesn’t Project 2025 want a federal government scope of power and regulations as at the start of the 20th Century? Trump wished them well, hired Vought (an architect of P 2025) then released him to cut jobs?

For a plan that Trump didn’t know, it sure worked out for P 2025.

Don’t forget the pardons he has given out (after money changed hands) to convicted fraudsters where over $2B in penalties and restitution orders were wiped out.

SCOTUS said he can sell pardons and it’s not criminal.

But all the corruption is impeachable by Congress

Why would Epstein kill himself when he has weaselled his way out of consequences before? He could also get a pardon from Trump. Trump already had pardoned his allies Stone & Flynn.

Release the Epstein Files to look for a motive and opportunity for Epstein’s murder.

CBS reporter Edward R. Murrow embodied what a journalist should be: someone who holds power to account instead of capitulating to it.

Over 70 years later, his segment denouncing Joe McCarthy’s congressional witch hunts rings truer than ever.

Pritzker: "If the Constitution means anything -- and I guess we all are questioning that right now -- the Insurrection Act cannot be invoked ... they just want troops on the ground because they want to militarize especially blue cities in blue states."

These last in the chain of criminal actions are never getting pardons, they don’t have enough money to buy them. Unless Military pushes back against illegal orders they will likely be prosecuted when Trump Regime falls. If not where is the deterrent next time? That’s what was missing from Jan 6.

louis8086.bsky.social @louis8086.bsky.social · 14h

I saw the exact same parallel. Trump has supporters willing to do stuff for his benefit-he doesn’t even need to ask them to “do us a favour”… he just needs to blow the dog whistle & his hounds will go after Trump’s enemies.

I wonder if this was Epstein’s fate - he still had leverage, why suicide?

So the tentacles of control and manipulation are many and deep. I hope America can figure a way out. Maybe defeating Trumpism is the way to a political awakening that can break the chains of the oligarchy.

The self interest of House members and Senators is the foundation upon which the American Republic was founded. Never before has Congress given up its power like it has to the cult leader. Time to take back their power because they want to keep their job.
