Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ) proudly told longtime Trump associate Steve Bannon on his "War Room" podcast that he signed a letter demanding that FBI Director Kash Patel investigate Reps. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) as domestic terrorists over a pair of speeches that did not...
Isn’t this some real nazi fascist like tactics? Are they just testing the waters?
If they could actually get the few progressives we have in prison on BS charges, I think they would. And their supporters would cheer.
They are real nazi
I mean, really all they need to do is arrest her on some bullshit charge, drag her into a black van and put her on a plane to El Salvador. Who’s going to know about it, or do anything about it? It’d be a chilling message to all their enemies.
They’d be bragging about it on the news in order to promote the chilling effect. The question at that point would be if it caused an armed reaction. They want to start a civil war because they think they will win.
If they pulled something like this, do you think people would finally get into action?
It really feels like they’re testing the waters before going full-on Nazi and dragging their political opponents off the street.
I’ve give it a good 15 to 20% chance that the public, or a governor, would show up with enough force of arms to cause a civil war. Outside of that I’d give it a 50/50 chance of working out for the Nazi’s. The reality though is that the left isn’t organized around any kind of physical force. The worst thing the right could do is cause that to change. Because of course they would immediately try to stop it, causing a military Streisand effect. If your political opponents are organizing to physically protect themselves from you, attacking them for it, will make them organize and react with violence much faster. The only thing worse than organized violence, is quickly escalating organized violence.
The way things are going I expect the first attack along these lines on an opposition politician within a month.
Or a family member. Remember the hammer attack on Pelosi’s husband.
No, this is exactly what they’re trying to do. So far it’s worked with media outlets, law firms, and colleges. They keep their own ranks in line via either threats of a primary challenge backed by Musk, or outright death threats from Trump’s followers. They are experimenting with disappearing people to foreign countries, and Trump has already openly threatened to ship US protesters there.
