They told us Democrats would turn America into a show-your-papers society.
They told us Democrats would strip away the Second Amendment.
They told us Democrats would jail us for what we say.
They told us Democrats would drag us into more foreign wars.
They told us Democrats would cover up a child sex trafficking ring.
And then Republicans took power and decided to do all of it themselves.
Hard to imagine a bigger scandal than the head of immigration enforcement taking a bag of cash in an FBI sting, & having it covered up by the Attorney General. Should be the biggest story of the week. Huge headlines, dominating even on Fox. A real test of journalistic integrity.
“If we don’t measure food insecurity, no one’s hungry”
“If we delete research on right-wing violence, there’s no right-wing violence”
“If we don’t release inflation data, there’s no inflation”
“If we stop Covid testing, we’ll have fewer cases”
You see what’s happening, right?
Trump fired the head of job statistics so you won't know how many people are unemployed.
Trump delayed the inflation report so you won't know how bad the economy is.
Trump cancelled the annual hunger survey so you won't know how many people are starving.
This is NOT America.
Trump is directing the DOJ to prosecute his political enemies “now”.
The Pentagon is banning journalism.
The FCC is targeting critics of the President to get them taken off air.
Trump’s border czar took cash bribes and Patel’s FBI dropped the case.
That’s just this week.
It really is staggering to see so many people willing to abandon our 249 year experiment in democracy for an increasingly unstable criminally convicted reality show charlatan.
Border Czar Tom Homan was caught by the FBI accepting bribes - on camera - to deliver government contracts in exchange for $50,000 in cash.
Pam Bondi knew.
Kash Patel knew.
Emil Bove knew.
And they made the investigation go away.
A corrupt attempt to conceal brazen graft.
1. Politicize independent institutions
2. Spread disinformation
3. Scapegoat vulnerable communities
4. Expand executive power
5. Quash dissent
6. Corrupt elections
7. Stoke political violence
The right was so easily made to believe the thing they purport to despise
