This regime will not sustain. Nature cannot be fooled, as Feynman said. The cracks will show.

If history is a guide, that should take only … 25-40 years.

Yeah, I'm still waiting for the benefits from Reagan's "Trickle Down" economy. Haven't seen any trickle yet!

And of course, only a few more years of embargo, and Castro regime will fold.....

davidcarper750.bsky.social•1 day ago

Patel wants to get rid of people on a one-by-one basis; RFK wants to kill us in bulk.

We can only hope that juries of their peers will not be so easily manipulated.

Bold to assume we'll still have juries.

Hope. Hope is doing a LOT in that sentence.

To stop my mental hyperventilating, I wondered if he would go after some of the GOP leadership because that would be fun.

Watching them infighting would be an ephemeral experience, as they would eliminate those not loyal to Trump.

msinformation.bsky.social•2 days ago

True true. Yeah, bleak indeed.

I'm surprised Patel wasn't at the top of everyone's list to begin with. He always seemed the most dangerous to me. To be fair, RFK has exceeded expectations so far.

The FBI agents swore an oath to protect the constitution. They have an obligation to resist fascism and an attack on our democracy. So far, Government workers have not resisted as strongly as some might expect. I hope FBI agents will be different.

They won't be. A third of them have already been fired. Those who remain are Gestapo in the making.

It's been a few weeks, and I've already got Tump fatigue. And haven't even been to the US. (And have no plans of going there either.)
