This is dated October 28th. Is this how Vaught thinks now? Is this what he is going to do while Trump is in office?

madmandolorian.bsky.social•26 days ago

If anything, seeing the work he put into Project 2025 being enacted by Trump will likely only embolden him.

kittykeats.bsky.social•26 days ago

One black president and these Rosemary's babies completely freak out.

Our civil servants and military will not participate in fascism.

Have you met the Flynn brothers? Generals in waiting for authoritarianism 🤬

edwardthethird.bsky.social•26 days ago

My point is that we are in a cycle. One that was taken over by Trump voters. The Flynn boys are on a limited schedule as well.

We will take back this country.

I want to send Russell Vought and his conservative wife, Mary, a Christmas card or maybe a fruitcake. I'm guessing a LOT of us would want to do the same. ANYBODY GOT RUSSELL VOUGHT'S HOME ADDRESS??? DC/VA area.

But it will be after they’ve eaten us, so I really don’t give a damn.

What a fucked up goal - “ put federal workers in trauma so they don’t want to get up in the morning…”. These assholes are true sociopaths

pnwwestcoast.bsky.social•26 days ago

Vought is a f*cking nut. Typical right wing screwball.

What does this make DJT Jr, Igor?

missfrijole.bsky.social•26 days ago

How is this government serving the people? Why are these fuckers so sadistic and cruel? Why do we have to suffer because of their mental health struggles related to inadequacy and daddy issues?

ericrichards.bsky.social•26 days ago

I mean isn't almost all of this illegal.

seitzbg.salty.house•26 days ago

In a country with laws that are enforced. In a country with checks and balances. In a country with intelligent citizens.

ericrichards.bsky.social•26 days ago

True enough. We are not that anymore obviously.

seitzbg.salty.house•26 days ago

Agreed, been a few decades, IMO. The decline started with Ray Gun.

thatmisbehavedgay.bsky.social•26 days ago

My hope is that while we will inevitably suffer, that the MAGAts suffer even more. The MFs deserve it.

normanmailerdaemon.bsky.social•26 days ago

Do you think Bannon’s hatred for Musk is sincere or a front?

tcar2000.bsky.social•26 days ago

Who cares? Everything they say and do is meant to give them more power and money. They are not “sincere” about anything else.

normanmailerdaemon.bsky.social•26 days ago

Yeah, you’re right. I guess part of me wants to believe that MAGA infighting will lead to their ultimate cannibalization

tcar2000.bsky.social•26 days ago

They’ll always hate us more than the slight variations expressed by their Nazi compatriots.

errplain.bsky.social•26 days ago

I'm still trying to figure out *why* their hatred is so deep that they'll vote for suffering as long as others suffer more. Is this the indoctrination of the stupid, racism/resentment left from the the civil war, hijacking of religion by the powerful, all of the above....or something else?

normanmailerdaemon.bsky.social•26 days ago

Malignant narcissism? Nixon was the same

tcar2000.bsky.social•25 days ago

Actually, it’s worse than that. MAGAts vote for policies that harm themselves more than they harm anyone else. Red states are the poor rural states (except Texas & Florida), & Trump’s economic agenda will hit them worse. Their anti-abortion laws cause more maternal & infant mortality, not less. 🤷🏻‍♀️

kmgj89.bsky.social•26 days ago

Is that MARK MEADOWS in the background?! Good Lord. Where did they dig him up again?

womenrightsforus.bsky.social•26 days ago

Don’t forget Kevin Roberts. Vance wrote the forward to his book which postponed publication until after the election.

adb11.bsky.social•26 days ago

“We’re going to do things that people will be shocked at,” Trump declared.

However, not shocking to those that read Project 2025, that nearly 2/3 of Trump’s Executive Orders mirror the Project 2025 agenda.

America wake up!

waywardpirate.bsky.social•26 days ago

See what happens when you order U.S. troops to direct fire on kin, friends, and communities.
Q.:
Could white nationalist ultra-evangelical MAGA supertroops shoot their Moms & members of a civil society?
A.:
Yes, properly indoctrinated.

deathmetalmkf.bsky.social•26 days ago

We saw what they'll do last time, we won't be in the street. Our protests will be online and with our wallets. Hurt them where it counts, their bank accounts.

madmandolorian.bsky.social•26 days ago

Fascists don't care about online forums. They are about action. Unless you're hacking into their systems and doing damage, keyboard warrior-ing won't do anything to stop them.

deathmetalmkf.bsky.social•26 days ago

"Fascists don't care about online forums." Where do you think they find members?

madmandolorian.bsky.social•26 days ago

At rallies, in shareholder meetings, in mar a lago. They indoctrinate people with Fox News and misinformation, and they show up en masse.

deathmetalmkf.bsky.social•26 days ago

That's not what you claimed. You're correct with your second statement, but your original claim was forums aren't used to radicalize people, when we have many cases that show that's exactly the case. Just look up how incels become incels. From the comfort of their own bedrooms.

madmandolorian.bsky.social•26 days ago

My first comment was that fascists don't care if we sit and type angrily behind a keyboard. We can type all we want, and it won't stop them. They care when we take actual action to implement revolution.

tcar2000.bsky.social•26 days ago

But it’s great to know we could’ve eliminated this threat by simply getting up off our asses and voting, whether in person or by mail-in or absentee ballots.

mckwood.bsky.social•26 days ago

Mail-in ballots that were thrown out legally by Republicans are among those grey...just saying.

tcar2000.bsky.social•26 days ago

I'll say the same thing I've always said to Republicans who STILL claim Biden stole the election from Trump: prove it in a court of law. The GOP tried to prove it over 60 times, and failed. Have the Dems even tried to prove it? And there's no such thing as proof by YouTube video. Prove it in court.

mckwood.bsky.social•26 days ago

You are correct that I don't have proof beyond an interview from the Texas Attorney General on the topic. I would like to think that, while insufficient grounds to convict anyone, it is enough to have a conversation about in social media. More power to you hunting down conspiracy theorists though.

tcar2000.bsky.social•26 days ago

Of course any topic goes on social media. I just don't want to go down the conspiracy theory road without tangible proof in a court of law. That's a GOP trait. Watch a youtube video & believe it if you like what it says. Nope, not for me.

mckwood.bsky.social•26 days ago

This was your post originally. Right on

douchelarue.bsky.social•26 days ago

Frustrating moreso than great

tcar2000.bsky.social•26 days ago

I think it's incredibly frustrating, but also great, in that we know we can change the situation simply by voting. The fact that more people don't vote, and more people don't vote in their own self-interest, is frustrating.

jumahl.bsky.social•26 days ago

As long as elections and voting are allowed

tcar2000.bsky.social•25 days ago

On the campaign trail Trump promised us that we won’t need elections after the last one. We have a huge population that doesn’t bother to vote, either in person or by mail, so I guess they’re happy with that.

wind5.bsky.social•26 days ago

Do not march in the streets because Trump is dying to call martial law. go underground work in small groups work with the legal system!!!!! THROW LEGAL BATTLES AT MAGA 24/7

Keep doing domestic HARD! But the plan is to engage NATO in Europe with Greenland so they don’t have enough to watch Ukraine. Also Panama for Central and South America. Also Canada for the Five Eyes. Watch out. This is the plan. Russia & China will aid.

houdini100.bsky.social•26 days ago

I had been saying as the fascist firehouse of executive orders were coming that the OMB to be headed by Russell Vought was mentioned consistently throughout the orders. Usually at the end as one of the offices making decisions on implementation or budget for the order.

Posse Comitatus Act, a federal law that limits the use of the military to enforce domestic policies

This will be a test for military commanders. But Republican supporting commanders (most?) will be tempted

Perhaps the Dems need to push back by warning them they will be prosecuted if they deploy
