According to Nick Fuentes: “You gotta recognize the fact that this is a godless country…I hate it. It’s immoral. It’s wrong. It’s heinous. It’s evil. But this is an evil country, and this country will surprise you with how evil it is. And that’s why you’ve got to get this out of your head that there is some silent majority cavalry that’s going to come out of the woods and save us at the last minute. It’s not.” And, then this neo-NAZI added: “When you look at these things like abortion, it’s popular …And you can thank the Jewish media for that. Abortion is popular, sodomy is popular, being gay is popular, being a feminist is popular, sex out of wedlock is popular, contraceptives-it’s all popular at all. That’s not to say it’s good. That’s not to say I like that. Popular means that people support it, which they do. It sucks, and it is what it is, but that’s why we need a dictatorship. That’s unironically why we need to get rid of all that. We need to take control of the media or take control of the government and force the people to believe what we believe or force them to play by our rules and reshape the society.”

Here’s why neo-FASCISTS like Fuentes HATE people like me and why they refer to liberals – showing their IGNORANCE – as being the “fascists.” I will not indulge you farther other than to say I’ve posted the DEFINITION of Fascism here numerous times and FINALLY some of the people in the so-called liberal media are recognizing that is where the GOP has “gone.” I listened to a member of the “liberal press” the other day suggesting people SHOULD vote out republicans because this “rot” has infected the republican party and has spread to where it’s beyond fixable. Not to pat myself on the back – OK, that’s exactly what I’m doing – I’ve been saying the republican party needs to “go” for over 10 years on this site. (Maybe closer to 15 years) It’s as if those who run the 24/7 Cable “news” outlets need to have irrefutable evidence before they can see the “writing on the wall.”

Why would I be bringing up Nick Fuentes? Well, if you read my previous post you know I wrote about Fuentes and “Ye” (AKA Konye West) having dinner with Donald Trump at Mara Lago last week causing a “stir” among – well, democrats and disenchanted republicans. Why that surprised anyone is beyond me, but here’s the next chapter in that fiasco. First off, Trump claimed he had no idea who Furentes was (although there were reports he was interested in some of what he said) and, then, just a couple days ago, guess what? Yep, there was Trump posting on his social web disaster (I can’t remember the name) that the CONSTITUTION should be “terminated” so that he could be re-instated as president. I’m not kidding!!

Trump was apparently complaining about how Twitter failed to publish photos of a “naked” Hunter Biden prior to the 2020 presidential election. In his mind, that was so egregious that our consitution should be terminated suggesting it cost him the election. Publishing these photos would have violated Twitter’s rules, at the time, but, Trump is now suggesting (since Elon Musk took over Twitter?) these photos SHOULD have been published. (Honestly, had the photos been published, I believe I, for one, would STILL have voted for Biden – of course, I wouldn’t have viewed the photos) Well, as I tried to process this STUPIDITY it dawned on me – then, shouldn’t the naked photos of Stormy Daniels along with the photos of Trump snuggled up next to her along with the suggestion he had an affair with her while Melania was pregnant with Barron been published? Have you ever wondered why Trump paid $130,000 to keep those photos private?

Here’s a brief explanation of why I, and I’m sure most, consider Fuentes – and, of course, Trump, such wack jobs: First, I’ve written a complete post about the abortion issue and it’s way more complicated than our “liberal media” would have people believe – but, to keep it simple, if you don’t believe in abortion, DON’T have one. (Of course, if you’re like I was 45 years ago when my wife, pregnant with our first child, began having a miscarriage you’d probably do the same thing I did – which was rush her to the hospital as she was bleeding profusely where she had what amounted to an abortion – although the fetus was already dead). If you don’t believe in sodomy, don’t participate in it. etc. etc. The idea of Fuentes’ “dictatorship” (or Trump’s suspending the constitution) tells you all you need to know about the right wingers in the republican party. And, trust me, it goes much deeper than Fuentes and Trump.

I just purchased the January 6th Select Committee’s report which is supposed to be published this next week (just prior to Christmas) and, after reading that I should have much more detail about how deep the ROT actually goes. For example, it came out last week on Congressperson sent texts to Mark Meadows suggesting Trump invoke “Marshall Law” in order to prevent Joe Biden from taking the oath of office. (The dude’s in Congress and couldn’t spell “Martial” correct – although I misspell my fair share of words, I’m just not a member of Congress) I believe republicans in Congress like Jim Jordan, Scott Perry, Mo Brooks (former as of January 1), Andy Biggs, Paul Gosar, Marjorie Taylor Greene, and Louie Gohmert – and maybe others – very well could be part of the CONSPIRACY to overthrow our government. Will the Committee refer those who refused to answer subpoenas to the Justice Department? I doubt it, although I believe it’s totally appropriate. Will this mean members of Congress, in the future, won’t have to testify if they don’t want to? Yikes!

Personally, I’m on the edge of my seat waiting for the hammer of Justice to fall on Mr. Trump – and, potentially, on members of his family based on the lawbreaking which apparently was routine in the “Trump Organization.” I’ve been lamenting (with MILLIONS of other Americans) on the Justice Department allowing Trump to continue his illegal conduct when the EVIDENCE of his lawbreaking has been public for several months now. I keep thinking Merrick Garland fears to response of the right wing militia movement in America – AKA white nationalists – in the event Trump is indicted. And, Trump, sensing that FEAR, actually, in an interview with Hugh Hewitt, suggested that his supporters would react violently to him being arrested. And, I’ve said, all along: “Bring it on!” Let’s get this overwith – because the DAMAGE to America will be far greater if Trump is NOT indicted than what possibly might happen if he is. And, I have to admit, when AG Garland announced a “special counsel” (Jack Smith) to investigate Trump I thought: “Here we go” – more delays which will end up with NOTHING happening. Well………………………………..

I was wrong about Jack Smith. It appears he is AGGRESSIVIVELY pursuing the investigation into Trump’s participation in the INSURRECTION along with MANY of those who allegedly COULD be part of a charge of SEDITIOUS CONSPIRACY. On this site I’ve, on several occasions, pointed out what it takes to be part of a CONSPIRACY (not much) and it’s obvious to me there are a plethora of high level republicans who should be doing two things right now – one: shaking in their boots and two: getting good defense LAWYERS. I’ve also, on several occasions, listed – off the top of my head – the obvious co-conspirators with Trump in the attempted coup d’etat: Mark Meadows, Rudy Giuliani, Jim Jordan, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Scott Perry, Paul Gosar, Andy Biggs, Mo Brooks, Jenna Ellis, Jeff Clarke, John Eastman, Sidney Powell, Steve Bannon, Peter Navarro, and Ginni Thomas – Oh yes, can’t forget Ted Cruz, Josh Hawley, and Jody Hice – plus all those involved with the fraudulent elector scheme and, I’m sure many others. Will Jack Smith charge this many people – especially with so many members of Congress involved? I doubt it – but, I, for one, would welcome it. Maybe prosecute in “waves” as they’re doing with the “Oathkeepers.” (Everytime I write that I have to wonder, “what oath?”)

I was a sixth grade teacher for the final 23 years of my working life (occasionally 7th graders) and I continue to struggle understanding how the so-called “mainstream media” seems to always be playing “catch up.” When “little old” peop;le like me figure stuff out way before hand. It seems it should ALWAYS be the other way around. For example I’ve written extensively how the White Nationalists/supremacists – AKA “KKK” members of our society who were pretty much pushed “under the rocks” until Obama was elected, openly claimed Trump to be their “vehicle into the mainstream of American politics.” (Many consider Trump their “fuhrer”) I read that exact claim coming from David Duke and Don Black – both former “Grand Wizards” of the KKK after doing a little research following reading the book “Rising out of Hatred” about Don Black’s son Dereck. The information has been there since Trump started calling Mexicans “rapists.”

Making the connection to Trump’s “policies” and his “base” to the neo-Nazi movement in America should not have been that hard. You’re starting to see those references routinely on some of the “non” mainstream sources of information, but still the corporate media is very timidly refusing to go there – from what I can muster. As I’ve stated here, when I watch television, if it’s not sports related, it’s usually MSNBC. My daughters watch CNN claiming MSNBC is “too liberal” and all I can think of is they’re both corporate news outlets and they seem more concerned with the possiblity of lawsuits caused by “going to far” than in actually reporting the TRUTH about what is driving this wedge deeply into our country. And, to me, I’ve come to believe it’s more on the media than on the democrats to rescue “we the people” from what is more and more becoming a direct attack on our constitution.

Another thing which has been obvious to me – but I rarely hear mention of in the “news” is the reality the right wing assault on America will not slow down one bit based on one – or two – or however many lost elections they endure. They work from the “bottom up,” they have unlimited funding for their covert operation, and the ONLY way to stop them is to vote republicans into the history books (I know I’ve said that ad nauseum) and EXPOSE their surreptitious funders into the “sunlight.” We know about the Koch “brothers” (now “brother”) and much of their network of WEALTHY “old” American money which emerged from the John Birch Society and is re-imerging using Trump as their “mechanism” – what MOST people have no idea about would be – one example – groups like the “American Legislative Exchange Council” – usually referred to as “ALEC” – working at the state legislative level to pervert our political process in a way which could ultimately make the next coup d’etat successful. As many pundits HAVE said, they think January 6th was simply a “trial run.”

Final Thought: This is a “rant” over the course of several days – a rant here and a rant there – but, one last thing I’d like to reaffirm is how Trump is NOT the entire problem (although, I hope to live long enough to see him convicted of at least SOME of his criminal conduct) just the mechanism for those in America who don’t believe our system of government – a democratic republic – works for them. These are people who have (finally) begun to be labled as “neo-fascists,” “autocrats,” or some other anti democratic characterization. That is, because they DON’T believe in “democracy,” and THEY believe progressives to be the “fascists” because there are more of us than there are of them – thereby justifying (in their minds) the extreme anti-democratic behvior which has become the norm on the “right.” The last thing they would consider, would be actually trying to expand their “base” by working to meet the needs of “we the people.” Of course, that would really aggravate the white nationalists who comprise the majority of the republican “base” – so, they’d have to make a choice. At this point, who knows if it’s even possible? Fuentes just came out and said what many of the others won’t say in public – “We need to take control of the media or take control of the government and force the people to believe what we believe or force them to play by our rules” – That’s the bottom line that has been driving all the voter suppression stuff and other parts of the right wing agenda which progressives MUST continually be AWARE of.

The best example of this is coming into public view as text messages received by the January 6th Committee are becoming public – messages sent to Mark Meadows from various members of Congress. Honestly, as I read through some of them – and, again, I’m JUST a retired 6th grade school teacher – I couldn’t help but laugh – at which point I would remind myself I’m reading text’s from MEMBERS of Congress and their ABSURD premises are actually DANGEROUS simply because of their position in government. These messages are full of grammatical mistakes I wouldn’t have accepted from my 6th graders and the logic was even worse. We have numerous members of Congress getting sucked into some of the most wild conspiracy theories you can imagine – and, they were passing this garbage along to Trump, who apparently is susceptible to this nonsense as well. The bottom line: The CONSPIRACY to foment the INSURRECTION on January 6th, 2021 included, as I’ve stated many times (including above) many members of Congress and the EVIDENCE of this is becoming public drip by drip. And, they’re not finished!

A reminder of a few things I’ve predicted since January 20, 2017: First, there would come a day when Trump would regret his walk down the escalator at Trump Tower announing his candidacy for president – if that day hasn’t happened by now – it appears it soon will – due to the impending CRIMINAL investigations gaining “steam.” Second: I said, early on, Trump would last as president until the republican members of Congress had had enough. Well, I certainly didn’t think it would take this long – but, I believe that day is fast approaching as more and more republicans realize they can’t “win” with him. (Enter, Ron DeSantis – who’s cleverly been positioning himself for this “day” over the past four years – a man much more conniving than Trump) Third: the EVIDENCE of what really happened on January 6th, 2021 would come out, “drip by drip” and Trump’s CRIMINAL conduct would be fully exposed. I would suggest that last one reminds me of going to the Movie Theater and seeing the sign regarding the next movie – reading: “Coming Soon!”
