A senior administration official, as well as other officials, told Rolling Stone that it is a priority of Trump that these kinds of military deployments -- in times of relative calm -- become normalized in American political culture. More: rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Just as important: normalizing this fascist activity *within* the military. Guard troopers are by definition citizen-soldiers. The duality is essential to the mission, culture, and good order. Divorcing those two roles is essential to the fascist project.

People aren’t getting it. Honestly, many libs are “ok with”. He is starting with minority cities. He is smart. White libs think, “ Oh my, this is absolutely horrible. Well…crime is kinda bad.” “We won’t be impacted.” The country is being stolen from them right under their noses.Smh

How to empower an authoritarian state‼️ This WH is working from a script. History books are full of this same thing. Not that ignorant Donnie knows. Ask Stephen Miller tho; Miller knows and he’s the director. 🚩🚩🚩

This is why we can't just sit back and laugh. It's farcical this time. They're going to keep doing it. It'll be less farcical every time until it's normal. Then they're going to start doing more than walk around. The footlong-thrower was funny, because they didn't shoot him. They will next time.

This isn’t going to fly in the Midwest. He can try to put troops in Chicago or St. Louis or wherever but it’s just going to fueling a bunch of crazy MAGA wet dreams & they will attack. They won’t be able to help themselves, been training for this for decades. This is the Jade Helm they will die on

Told you all this was what was going on. It’s all about normalizing the presence of heavily armed military forces on the streets of American towns and cities. There will be no free elections next year, they will be suspended due to a national “emergency” and dissent will be brutally suppressed.

On the other, the hedonic treadmill is a real thing, and Trump has always benefited by doing many things that the public hates, to the extent that they forget how much they hate each one. If the courts continue to delay on procedural bullshit, folks may forget how outrageous this is. ...

On the third hand, part of me thinks that once the nominal president's health catches up with him, President Miller is absolutely fucked. Does Vance which is to say Peter Thiel have any use for a jackass whose Nazi monomania is making the whole rob-the-Treasury project deeply unpopular?

Ds will sign into Bluesky. Call themselves the Resistance (a bunch of 8yr olds w/a clubhouse). Post tough stuff and then risk absolutely nothing. MAGA is wiling to fight for their craziness. Blacks- we are willing to fight and die. We did. But the D party- leadership and every day folk. Not a chance

LA & DC are Trial Runs for the befuddled old dangerously stupid fucker to try to fulfill his fantasy of having TOTAL Authoritarian Rule. "Off-His-Rocker Man" wants to emulate one of his Heroes, the one he nicknamed "Little Rocket Man"!

Its pretty clear this criminal administration is looking for flimsy opportunities to blame protestors & left for a press to martial law. They didn’t get it, so now they’re baiting in D.C. Pulls the narrative off Trump’s very close ties to Epstein. Its the files.
