The Reign of Terror has Begun

Trump is attacking the United States on all fronts now.

Stalin is and was well hated for his brutal suppression of all opposition. For Putin it is just part of the playbook. The orange idiot is not smart enough to understand this, but the brains that prop him up are. Brutality and cruelty are their everyday tools for dealing with a free populace.

Brutalizing an opposition senator is just a normal terrorist tactic

Senator Alex Padilla, Democrat of California, was forcibly removed on Thursday from a news conference being held by Kristi Noem, the homeland security secretary, and handcuffed after he interrupted Ms. Noem at a federal building in West Los Angeles.

“Sir! Sir! Hands off!” Mr. Padilla, 52, shouted as federal agents tried to muscle him out of the room inside a government office building about 15 miles west of downtown Los Angeles where Ms. Noem was speaking. “I am Senator Alex Padilla. I have a question for the secretary.”

Assassinating opposing lawmakers is straight out of Putin and every other autocrats’ playbook

A person pretending to be a police officer assassinated a Democratic state legislator in Minnesota and killed the lawmaker’s husband in “an act of targeted political violence,” Gov. Tim Walz said Saturday. The assailant also shot and injured another Democratic lawmaker and his wife, officials said.

State Representative Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, died in the attack at their home in the Minneapolis suburbs. State Senator John A. Hoffman and his wife, Yvette, were shot multiple times at their house in a nearby suburb, but remained alive as of Saturday morning.

Mussolini, Stalin, Hitler, Trump - All the same from their results

Previously I have compared the orange cultist to Hitler and Mussolini, but in reality a man with no brains can be anything his handlers want him to be. Since the fake president has nothing but fascist handlers, what we are seeing is what we ought to have expected.

The real question is how long this goes on until the remains of the constitutional government collapse, or the people of the United States reject the orange nazis and put a real government back into Washington. Realistically I don’t have a lot of hope of that rejection, but perhaps the demonstrations we are finally seeing could be a sign of hope.

One of the telltales I am watching is California. That state has one of the world’s biggest economies, and it is based mostly on intelligence and creativity. The shear size of that economy makes it hard for the nazis to just crush it. The technological power created in California empowers all of the remaining old-line industries, and none of them can survive in today’s world economy without it.

The Putin puppets are well aware of this, and know that they have to enforce their MAGAthood on California if the rest of the country is to fall in line. The sad part is that the creativity and intellectual power cannot survive the invasion of MAGAthood, so no matter what happens, if MAGA wins, we all lose.

It is no coincidence that the worst offences against the Constitution are occurring in places where MAGA is not welcome. Intelligence and MAGA are mutually exclusive, so if MAGA wins, this country will join Russia as a former world power and giant stupidity-run fake republic with no economy to speak of. The MAGAts deserve this, but the rest of us only deserve it because we haven’t done anything to fight it off.
