A “politically motivated attempt to wash away history and to dishonor the immense progress our country has fought for in realizing our founding principles.”

x Only someone who avoided the draft would want to rename the Department of Defense to the Department of War.

AND GOP DONOR JOHN PAULSON IS IN THE EPSTEIN FILES

x Rep. Massie dropped a bomb: Billionaire John Paulson, top GOP donor, bankroller of the Speaker, and Trump’s campaign, is in Epstein’s black book. This is why they’re terrified of a full release.

The truth won’t just expose Epstein.

It will expose the powerful who enabled him.

The tactics Trump employs have a well-documented history. Othering, victimization, conspiracy theories, unreality, anti-intellectualism, division, sexual anxiety, the mythic past are all themes which are familiar from our past, as explained in How Fascism Works - The Politics of Us and Them by Yale philosophy professor Jason Stanley. Like other demagogues, Trump uses his words to distort reality. So in order to unmask Trump’s demagoguery, it is worth examining his 2024 presidential candidacy speech and putting it side-by-side with excerpts from How Fascism Works. Included are segments from Stanley’s book to further illustrate how Trump’s rhetoric ties him back to fascism. As Stanley noted at a recent lecture at Howard University, “Stop acting like stuff is new when it is in fact a pattern.” www.bylinesupplement.com/...
