In 2022, Wilson told “Meet the Press” he aimed for a spiritual takeover of his community, to “make Moscow a Christian town,” a model or “microcosm” for Christian rule across America. Wait. Moscow, Idaho? That’s the same university town in national headlines, four UofI students stabbed to death.

A zealous Trumper, Wilson’s growing Christian ‘theonomist’ (God’s rule) empire is part of an influential network of far-right fundamentalists. They preach that women should not have the right to vote. Women, Wilson says, lack the discernment for that, God-ordained, rightfully male, authority.

It's part of his psychopathology, the quiet part out loud - a reflex, the flip side of perpetual lying. The sociopath treats his vices as virtues; the imperial president rewards criminals and embraces a value system in which there are only grifters and suckers. And evil serves a greater good.
Trump Literally Brags About Taking Away People’s Free Speech
Donald Trump has been saying the quiet part out loud for some time now.

Done! Both ballots went into a drop-box at our local park yesterday. Easy peasy. No excuses. Yes on 50!

Facial-recognition software is now being tested on immigrants, for wider application later in their crackdown on "crime". As Stephen Miller insists: opposition = terrorism, protest = insurrection, DEI = unconstitutional. We just became criminals.

For the rest of us it will be a crime to wear a mask, regardless of future disease outbreaks because it interferes with their facial-recognition software. When our constitutional rights of privacy are vacated by the Supremes, their ability to track us, in an attack on "crime", will become critical.
Are Trump's masked thugs the new Ku Klux Klan?
Masked, armed law enforcement agents who regularly violate the law and strip people of their constitutional rights is nothing new in America. They have, in fact, a long and well-documented history, in...

Just to be clear: Trump wants to train elements of the United States military to kill Americans in our cities. Excuse me, to "take them out". Like the small boats off Venezuela, summary execution, presumption of guilt. Provocations for war at home and abroad.

Stephen Miller has crossed several semantic Rubicons recently: opposition equals terrorism, protest equals insurrection, and DEI is unconstitutional. By that base logic, he feels empowered to crush resistance. Deportation for immigrants, prisons for us.

I'm not a baby boomer, I'm a "war child". Old enough to remember what anti-fascist means. And like books, the music of our generation is under attack be the new purity police. Many of the '60's "British Invasion" were children of the blitz. American folk and rock voiced protest. And we remember.

Under US law, it is illegal to depict a living president or any other living person on currency. This includes both bills and circulating coins. The law was enacted in 1866 to prevent abuses where government officials put their own likenesses on money.

BONUS: And while you're at war with Venezuela, you can suspend elections. (If China doesn't invade Taiwan first.)

So once again, Trump creates the problem then, like the 'arsonist hero' who sets the fire so he can heroically put it out, pays for it on the taxpayer's dime. He's more correctly an 'incompetent criminal'.

Aren't these farmer bailouts the dreaded "socialism"? And didn't I read that China bought their soybeans instead from Argentina, leaving American farmers without their primary market thanks to Trump's tariffs?

Ah... "the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful human being they've ever known." Memories of Raymond Shaw. Keep him away from playing cards.
