A conspiracy theorist dies and goes to heaven.

God says, “I’ll tell you anything you want to know.”

“At last! Who shot JFK?”

God says, “Oswald, acting alone.”

Conspiracy theorist says, “Shit. This goes even higher than I thought…”

These RIFs are the brain-child of Russell Voght, the main author of Project 2025.

Voght is a Far Right extremist who wants to obliterate the Federal Government. Literally.

He wants to nuke it. Vaporize it. Send it into oblivion. This is just the start.

Ironically many US citizens used to criticise ‘socialised medicine’ as they didn’t realise public funding underpinned their own system, indeed every system.

Adelita Grijalva won her election to Congress over two weeks ago, but Mike Johnson still hasn't sworn her in.

Why the delay?

Perhaps it's because Grijalva would cast the final vote needed to release the Epstein files.

The campaign against “antifa” is about establishing a beachhead for further attacks on speech and assembly rights. We see that today in the effort to preemptively label No Kings protesters as “terrorists.”

When leadership hides, the reason is no good

Supreme Court reverses lower court rulings while hiding behind the shadow docket

Congressional Rs hide from press and negotiations, hide on vacation, then hide from constituents

The administration hides their intentions

Trump hides from accountability

They aren’t afraid of “ANTIFA.”

They’re afraid of accountability, of people who document what they do, and of a public that can still recognize fascism when it sees it.
