"Shout this from the rooftops: 's "deportation plan" is really a plan for a US dictatorship. Blue cities will be in essence be invaded by red-state NG soldiers, who'll aid dead-of-night raids & violently suppress protests.

“I take all of it seriously,” Nunn, a counsel who monitors nat. sec. & liberty issues -expert in the pres. uses & abuses of the Insurrection Act *allows for the deployment of soldiers on US."

Project 2025 is 900 pages long, because they don't want you to read it. Anne Nelson read every creepy page and breaks it down in the Gaslit Nation Project 2025 Super Special.🧵

50 billionaire families poured over a billion dollars into the 2024 election so far, the vast majority to Republicans and Trump. (That doesn't count dark money hidden by Citizens United). Their goal? More tax cuts and deregulation at the expense of democracy.

The agenda also targets LGBTQ+ rights, aiming to strip civil and political protections. Imagine being fired just for being who you are. That's the dystopian future Project 2025 envisions.

This isn't just about Trump. Project 2025 lays the groundwork for any future conservative president to centralize power, making them akin to a dictator. It's a direct threat to our checks and balances.

Greed drives rising autocracy. Billionaires want to hoard their wealth, even if it means supporting fascism. It's time to start treating greed like the mental illness it is.

Do you have a friend or family member who works for the fed government in any capacity? Do you know someone who owns a business or works for a business that has government contracts that are its main source of revenue?

If Trump makes it back to the White House, GOP #Project2025 intends, within 1st 120 days, to purge most government agencies. The agencies that remain open will be staffed ONLY w/conservative loyalists. Detractors will be fired.

Taxes should be the least of Trump voters worries

"There is no doubt 'Project 2025' would transform America into a much nastier, much more dangerous, much more hostile place for anyone who dares to deviate from what the Right deems the ;natural order. In a very real sense, that’s what’s on the ballot in November."

"The election isn’t really about Biden vs. Trump; it’s a referendum on whether the effort to finally realize the promise of a truly democratic, pluralistic, multiracial society should be continued or abolished altogether. Those are the stakes."

Ruth Ben-Ghiat issues a warning: will institute another reign of terror; a 2nd presidency would end democracy & freedoms. A small circle of insiders would administer authoritarianism & conspire in his corruption: “For the personalist ruler, the party exists to defend, avenge, & enrich the ruler. Every counterrevolution needs disciplined cadres. is readying a civilian army of bureaucrats to transform US govt.” https://newrepublic.com/article/181265/permanent-counterrevolution?utm_source=Twitter&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=SF_TNR

“This attitude that our Bible and our interpretation of the Bible is the truth, it is the correct one, it is the only one we should be listening to, and our laws should be drawn from that, and we're going to force you, whatever you believe, to live by those laws is the very essence of fascism.”

PROJECT 2025 AS COUNTERREVOLUTION

The fascists believed that you have to destroy to create,
and this is what a second Trump administration would do.

Project 2025 is a plan for an authoritarian takeover of the United States that goes by a deceptively neutral name.

It preserves Trumpism’s original radical intent in its goals to “[d]ismantle the administrative state” and “decentralize and privatize as much as possible,” allowing the American people to “live freely.”

“[T]he Trump administration, with the best of intentions, simply got a slow start,” Heritage Foundation head told The New York Times in January. “And Heritage and our allies in Project 2025 believe that must never be repeated.”

The solution to this “slow start”
—code for the restraints imposed by operating in a democracy
—is counterrevolution.

The plan promises the abolition of the Department of Education and other federal agencies.

The intent here is to destroy the legal and governance cultures of liberal democracy and create new bureaucratic structures,
staffed by new politically vetted cadres,
to support autocratic rule.

So new agencies could appear to manage parents’ and family rights, Christian affairs, and other pillars of the new order.
🔥The Department of Health and Human Services is poised to have a central role in governance, 👉😱given the priorities Trumpism places on policing sexuality, weaponizing motherhood, persecuting transgender people and LGBTQ communities, and criminalizing abortion.

Somebody let the people know that it arrived early!

Reclassification of protestors to insurrectionists,

So they can kill anyone that speaks out against them is just one of many troubling parts

Rachel on Bradley W. Hart's superb "Star-Spangled Fascism" podcast:

"The harder thing for us to sort of sit with, as Americans, is that there have been fascistic tendencies, fascistic movements in America ... for longer than we like to admit."

is not some fever dream or conspiracy theory liberals have come up with.

It's a real, 920-page manifesto for neutralizing the civil service and concentrating power in the hands of an autocratic president.

It's the conservative plan to take over the country. It's what's at stake in this .

@tdwllms1 @old_hippie Project 2025 isn't dependent upon Trump -- any "conservative" President would fit this scheme. And 2025 isn't the only year they can accomplish it, just the earliest. Stay vigilant, always.

FEC must investigate apparent Trump campaign cover-up of settlements

https://www.citizensforethics.org/legal-action/legal-complaints/fec-must-investigate-apparent-trump-campaign-cover-up-of-settlements/

The Federal Election Commission must investigate whether Donald Trump’s campaign illegally attempted to hide settlement payments by routing the payments through third parties, according to a complaint filed today by Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington. The allegations of wrongdoing stem from former Trump campaign employee AJ Delgado’s sworn declaration in her pending lawsuit against Trump and his campaign over her claims of pregnancy discrimination...
