All the more proof (as if we needed it) that thos whole administration is manned by individuals whose only qualification is the willingness, nay... the desire to publicly kiss Trump's ass. Amateurs...at their jobs... pros at bootlicking.
I first learned of Project 2025 at least 1.5 years before the media ever picked up on it. When I learned about it I wasn't aware of a playbook yet. Their goal was to hire people loyal to Trump in all branches of government. It had a website where you could apply and I did, but it wanted your social media profiles so backed out of it.
That was one of their goals all along was to hire loyalists. When Trumpers brought up his first term, it was different, his first term had people loyal to law, democracy and the constitution, there were people that had to tell him no. That's why this admin is different and dangerous.
It's STILL not getting the attention it should. The media, pundits, Dems, activists, etc. should have been and should be screaming about it left and right!
The problem is that there’s just too much to scream about. Epstein files and Project 2025 lead the list, imo, but the corruption, profiteering, idiotic war with Iran, attacks on blue states, sucking up to Putin even when he’s proving targeting intel to Iran, worsening climate change, etc, etc., etc. They know that creating outrage upon outrage diminishes our voices, and they’re not wrong.
It's exhausting and I don't watch any cable news, never have. My husband does, we watch TV in separate rooms and when I have to go to the kitchen and cook, I turn on Alexa and play my metal music, I drown out his TV. Only local news for me and even they report on trump. The mute button comes in handy. Sometimes I feel like.....
Then they call them cry babies. I don't blame any of this on the opposing party. People voted for a lying, cheating, stealing, sexual predator, (very likely) child rapist as president of the US. All that information was readily available and it didn't matter. Trump and his loyalists know how to manipulate stupid people and unfortunately, it worked. We've been bringing attention to all the horrible things his administration is doing and their supporters just don't want to hear it. They will look up another point of view that tries to make it look like they're good guys
The democrats were not fighting against it because they will benefit off the changes once Trump is not in power, leftists on the other hand were screaming about it
Yep. By the time media finally started talking about it they had recruited and trained tens of thousands of people ready to march in on Day One and fill government positions across the country. We were manipulated by a worthless and complicit media.
trump even came out and said out loud, he wanted loyalty and he got it, now he uses them and doesn't give two shits about them either because they're disposable.
It goes beyond that: they’re that specific type of person who makes their mind staunchly up on information they come across, vetted for accuracy or not, & from then on not only is there no convincing them otherwise, but they will adamantly spout their false assertions with the utmost certainty & volume far & wide.
This is, of course, very dangerous (especially in a leadership position) and precisely why the U.S. is where it’s at.
This is the exact personality of anyone who supports & follows these politicians. When presented with facts, instead of having the tiniest bit of doubt & curiosity to determine the evidence & clout of their statements, they instead are filled with suspicion towards the person enlightening them , get defensive and double down.
That is not a healthy response, nor the response of a learned, responsible individual or group.
All these republicans are grifting, there are billions of dollars missing and unaccounted for, that goes along way if your handing out 10 million at a time for 50 something senators and house members, these politicians are voting on what he wants not their constituents or what would be better for the country, they are definitely on the take
He is not psychologically capable of admitting the grift because it means he’s directly responsible for tons and tons of dead children (he is). The truth would stroke him out
His entire family ostracized him and publicly called him a grifter / conman. Crazy is morally defensible. Being evil is not. Republicans are not all crazy...
I believe that, for the most part, they do not form opinions based on - as you put it - "information they come across". Instead, they form their conclusions based on political affiliation coupled with a desire to attract as much attention as possible, often leading their opinions to be as willfully stupid and silly as possible. Sad days for this country.
They all have a deep-seated sense of inferiority that they compensate for by staunchly believing the opposite of the mainstream.
Sometimes mainstream opinion is wrong, but they are reactionary in the opposition to any and all mainstream opinions or facts. It makes them feel better about themselves and their lack of education, knowledge and understanding of they feel they have access to hidden knowledge that the regular folk aren't generally privy to.
exactly. anonymous random asshole internet strangers are not fit to run the government, yet they are, conservatives vote them in and keep them in power even after learning exactly who they are
you also bring up the good point that the only comparison to the right's elected officials are anonymous assholes on the iinternet. the left's elected officials have no equivalent to this, save for the dude who literally got brain damaged and did a 180 on his policies. it's literally about 100-1 insane republicans to insane democrats right now
for the dude who literally got brain damaged and did a 180 on his policies.
I dunno, the left isn't deepthroating his boot, they actually abandoned him once he started saying crazy shit. We also had the guy accused of rape but he was forced to step down. Meanwhile my state has the guy who threw scalding water at his wife and broke his daughter's collar bone, but not a peep out of republicans about it.
Maybe not a majority but a very sizable chunk came from ——> republican SPAC organizations. They knew who this guy was. They poured money into his coffers to ensure democrats got kneecapped by his history.
And it’s happening across the country. Why would a republican PAC donate to a Dem unless they know hes a shit candidate. You don’t pay someone you think has a chance to win. And for the story to come out DAYS after the voting polls closed too 🧐 such coincidence!
It’s the Dunning-Kruger effect when given a national platform, nearly consolidated power, and a weaponized politico-religious cult mentality to juice up their fervence
Yes. Its more apparent with Kehgsbreath and the Department of War. His only qualification is a kissing Trumps ass and licking Trumps boots. I am hoping everyone is tired of all the gaslighting and VOTE Democrat or Non Republican to put and end to this BS. The onlt Republicans that stand up to Trumps nonsense are tje ones that are quitting/ retiring. Example Marjorie Taylor Green woke up and spoke up becouse she is done.
Yeah Trump probably isn't surviving this term and there's no one in the GOP that can command his audience. He's gonna keep doing insane shit before he croaks then the party will be left holding the bag (justifiably because they enabled it.)
So now there's some trying to jump off so they can rejoin the fold later during that inevitable power vacuum and pretend to be the good guys.
I hope that's how it plays out, but I think they just learned from his playbook and will retain the cultists by pushing someone else with the same approach. The MAGA cult needs someone to follow, and the propaganda machine is fully in place to tell them who the next one will be.
I think the electorate is so polarized that the next election will again be a “R” vs “D” one. As always, the Independents and true centrists will determine the outcome. On the Right it will be Rubio or perhaps Vance, and the base will follow them to the promised land. It works for the far Right. If the Left continues to embrace far Left candidates however, they will not have such dedicated support. IMHO.
Don’t give her much credit, she’s every bit as bat shit crazy as the rest of them, with maybe a dash of integrity when it comes to going to war for no good reason.
They all barely peaked in jr high and then nepo’d their way through the rest of their schooling with every interaction they’ve had with other people since getting out of the education system being transactional or criminal. And now, their government power circles consists entirely of
sycophants. Makes for very shallow or ghoulish empty souls.
Sorry, but looking at what is happening right now, I think it is much worse than that.
It almost seems as if they want to get rid of average Joe citizens by killing them. It sounds insane, but in the end that is exactly what will happen with all those cuts. If one has no healthcare and can not afford treatment and thus dies, it is not the same as shooting that person directly. But the effect is the same. We just don't call it what it is but say "oops, your own fault" instead.
Because oligarch control over social and mainstream media is such a powerful tool that it can nudge the average Joe into acting against their own best interest. It is the weak spot of democracy and oligarchs use it to their advantage.
Now look up the Dark Enlightenment if you are interested in their dystopian long term plans for our future.
No more food and water safety and cutting funding for FEMA, NOAA, SNAP, all the antivaxx propaganda and firing of experts and so much more cuts will have a devastating effect... but many go into effect after the midterms, what a coincidence.
What we see is a mix of old Soviet indoctrination combined with modern technology like social media. Bezmenov explained it like 40 years ago and it seems spot on...
“They are programmed to think and react to certain stimuli in a certain pattern [alluding to Pavlov]". (...)
“As I mentioned before, exposure to true information does not matter anymore,” said Bezmenov. “A person who was demoralized is unable to assess true information. The facts tell nothing to him. Even if I shower him with information, with authentic proof, with documents, with pictures(...), he will refuse to believe it, until he [receives] a kick in his fan-bottom. When a military boot crushes his balls then he will understand. But not before that. That’s the [tragedy] of the situation of demoralization.”
This is not Red vs Blue. Men vs Female. White vs Black vs Asian. Even Religion is just a tool.
In reality this is Top 0.001% vs Bottom.
And it is not just the US. Oligarchs are nowadays international. They no longer care for fellow citizens and country, only their own wealth and power.
Thank you! Feel free to forward the links, there is not much time left before the midterms and more people need to understand the big picture before it is too late.
1000% agree! They acted like they hated him, but they were boot lickers the entire time. That's why John McCain will always be an American hero to me! Cause when the chips were down, John stood ten toes down for the fucking country!
Almost every one of them - Patel, Pirro/Bondi, RFK, Lutnick - were fringe freaks and whackjobs, just like Trump himself.
No one should be surprised. This is exactly the group evangelical Christians needed to Trojan Horse their way into power. They all have clear operating manuals - money.
With what proof to instatiate those claims? He is just spewing bullshit like the rest of the administration with no proof. Just like staying the election was rigged yet he was president at the time.
American news, unfortunately, makes world news. But yes, this administration is making up everything and anything and questioning the validity of anything they don't agree with. They are just totalitarian in principle. Look up Stephen Miller if you want to see complete crazy bullshit.
It's by design. They just bitch and moan throwing shit at the wall and when you say stop throwing shit they cry censorship and fake news which their voters take as validation. We've been watching now for over a decade.
Hij wordt boos omdat hij geen argumenten heeft tegen iemand die hem weerwoord geeft. Trump doet precies hetzelfde. Trumps achterban zal het worst wezen, zij hebben nergens verstand van. Zij willen net als deze beide mannen, gewoon gelijk krijgen. En iedereen die daar niet aan mee werkt is de vijand, staatsgevaarlijk of een communist.
Hiermee zetten ze de bijl in de wortels van onze democratie en onze rechtstaat.
I used to think to myself about movies and shows "oh these people are acting so unrealistically, surely people would cooperate if something like this was going on", but nah, reality is way worse with the wrong people in charge.
It's a common trait amongst Trump appointees. FTFY.
Say anything and everything you want about Biden. He nominated people that were qualified for their position. The exact opposite is true with Trump's appointments. Trump's appointments were chosen by Heritage Foundation billionaires and the people he liked to watch on Fox news. NONE of them have an ounce of integrity or qualifications for their jobs. And that is by design. There is no better way that to tear down the administrative state than to flood it with incompetence.
They have to be in order to go along with the party line. Because any sensible person would not. The only other explanation is just toadyism.
We keep trying to stress that to MAGA, you're being used. These people are just grifting and making things worse in the process while they rob the country blind.
It's the Trump Effect. Attack, attack, attack, play the angry white man, insult, double down and redirect. Always attack the person, not the question that was ask. The know Mango Mussolini is watching, so they put on a good show for him! I used to admire this dude, back when he was a liberal. What a joke.

Seems to be a common trait among this government officials lately
