The Republican cult is disenfranchising hundreds of thousands of voters and working to suppress voting and create chaos in battleground states. A familiar crew of corrupt fascist oligarchs are funding this assault.
And now the Republican plan, forthrightly announced in the 1970s, to return the federal courts to their traditional role as reactionary redoubt of property and plutocracy has been supercharged by the death of Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
Inciting violence at his Nurembergesque rallies and “press conferences,” Trump is also already calling a potential Democratic win in November a “coup.” His party/cult’s anti-reality conspiracy bubble is bubbling over with such rhetoric; his paramilitaries-police coalition has already killed. (As always, the projection, that is, the taking of one’s own characteristics and projecting them on the enemy, is out in force with these fuckers.)
Here’s a merciless primer on how bad things are and how corporate media abets the disaster. It cuts through the bullshit with remarkable straight-forwardness.
Without a real opposition party, we have to depend on non-state actors: check out 866ourvote.org for helping with voting, and protecting voting. Trumpists are already out protesting early voters in Virginia.
Thank you.
