RepublicaNazis

 


Let’s start with a little background information.

White attendees at a Trump tackled and beat a Black protestor. Trump approved of the attack, telling Fox News, “Maybe he should have been roughed up because it was absolutely disgusting what he was doing.”

 In 2018, Trump praised then-US Rep. Greg Gianforte for physically attacking a reporter who asked him questions on the trail. “Any guy that can do a body slam, he is my type!" Trump joked at a rally.

Following Trump’s orders on January 6, 2021, to “fight like hell and take your country back”, his mob of thugs stormed the Capitol, terrorized Congress, and beat cops bloody in an attempt to overturn the 2020 election. After watching their violence and mayhem for HOURS on TV, and realizing they failed in their mission, he finally told them to leave. In the same message he praised the thugs.

"I know you're in pain. I know you're hurt. We had an election that was stolen. It was a landslide. But you have to go home now...we love you, you're very special."

When the thugs and seditionists were finally locked up for their crimes, Trump would say they were “hostages, not prisoners”. His thugs were charged and  convicted of their crimes.

He was also justly indicted with abundant evidence for his crimes, but the corrupt Supreme Court Justices in his pocket decided to protect him with the blatantly unconstitutional concept of “presidential immunity”. Finally, after winning in 2024 he pardoned ALL of his thugs.

Thus, Trump became the Godfather of 21st Century America’s political violence. Half the country and most of the world knows this vile authoritarian has no scruples, decency, or interest in following the law.

So, here we are in the second Trump presidency, America's first convicted criminal president and administration.

Masked ICE agents, many in civilian clothes, went on a spree of illegal abductions and mass deportations to gulags in Central America. Non-violent immigrants were sent to a prison in El Salvador, built to hold gang members and “terrorists”.

Trump next targeted Los Angeles, home of the largest immigrant population in the country.

Not waiting for a request by the California governor, he sent the military into Los Angeles in an unnecessary show of force.  Governor Newsom and the mayor knew the local police had the situation in hand.

His illegal deportations without due process inspired the massive “No Kings” rallies attended by millions of Americans across the country. This was the largest protest in American history. And it scares Trump’s party of fascists.

When fascists are frightened, they viciously smear, threaten, and demonize opposition. They would take down and handcuff Democratic Senator Padilla.

This is what Republican Speaker of the House Mike Johnson said about the California governor. “I'm not going to give you legal analysis on whether Gavin Newsom should be arrested, but he ought to be tarred and feathered.”

How "Christian" of him.

Early on the Saturday morning of the No Kings protests, a gunman tried to kill state Democratic Sen. John Hoffman and his wife, Yvette, at their Minnesota home. Soon after, the same gunman shot and killed Democratic state Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, at their nearby home. Their two children are now orphans.

They were killed for simply being pro-choice Democrats.

The so-called “pro-life Christian" nationalist murderer had preached: “God is going to raise up apostles and prophets in America to correct his church, and those that are connected to the body, they will come through this mess and they will be strong again. They don’t know how their sexual orientation, they’re confused. The enemy has gotten so far into their mind and their soul.” And, “God is going to raise up apostles and prophets in America to correct his church, and those that are connected to the body, they will come through this mess and they will be strong again”.

I’ll remind you of the type of regime that would ban abortion.

On October 10, 1936, Heinrich Himmler created the Reich Central Office for Combating Homosexuality and Abortion, or Special Office (II S), a sub-department of Executive Department II of the Gestapo.

(“Hitler did a lot of good things”. – DJ Trump)

 Let’s compare the reactions to the assassinations from a few politicians.

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz asserted, “This cannot be the norm. It cannot be the way that we deal with our political differences. Melissa Hortman was the core of who our values were. It’s not about hatred. It’s not about mean tweets. It’s not about demeaning someone. It’s leading with grace and compassion and vision and compromise and decency.”

Contrast Walz's comment to what Trump said. “Well, it’s a terrible thing. I think he’s a terrible governor. I think he’s a grossly incompetent person. But I may, I may call him, I may call other people, too.” (This is why Mike Johnson's calling for Newsom to be tarred and feathered isn’t a problem for Trump.)

There's a photo of the killer's home-printed sheets of paper with "No Kings" on the back seat of his car, obviously intended to be a decoy to confuse  investigators. So naturally Republican Sen. Bernie Moreno tried to pin the assassination on the “extreme left”. He wrote online, “The degree to which the extreme left has become radical, violent, and intolerant is both stunning and terrifying.” (Since when has the “extreme left” assassinated pro-choice Democrats? Never.)

This projection is how evil fascists like Nazis attack those they hate.

Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) also went full neo-Nazi with his sick justification of the killing, “This is what happens when Marxists don’t get their way.”

Of course, Democrats are NOT Marxists, but that has been the go-to fascist smear tactic since Hitler and Mussolini.

This despicable mindset of the radical right is not simply conspiracy theories and misinformation. It is their deliberate propaganda meant to demonize opposition their Felonious Fuhrer termed, “the enemy within”. The day after the murders Trump openly incited MORE VIOLENCE, saying Democrats "cheat in elections", are "sick of mind", and "hate our country".

Trump and his Republicans have transformed their party into America’s version of Nazism. The primary difference being we have our educational institutions, free press, judiciary, and Democratic opposition, which all happen to be the primary targets of American fascists.

And it will get worse. IF we have fair elections in 2026 this fascist scourge can be attenuated. But it can only happen by overwhelming Democratic and independent voter turnout.

Good luck, America. You’re going to need it.
