Tyler Robinson, the alleged assassin of Charlie Kirk, is speculated to be a Groyper based on his memes and rhetoric.

Groypers are a loose network of alt right pro Trump extremist who are vocal supporters of white supremacist and “America First” podcaster Nick Fuentes.

To review: an apparent right wing civil war between white Christian nationalist Groypers and white Christian nationalist college campus activists results in the murder of a leader of the latter; and that will now spark a 1930s-style putsch against liberals by the fascists who run the country.
"Stephen Miller vowed Friday that he and [..] Trump would use this week's assassination of Charlie Kirk to 'dismantle' the organized left using state power."

Miller: "It could be a RICO charge, a conspiracy charge, conspiracy against the United States, insurrection."

Very weird that anyone in the press covers Trump’s illegal domestic military deployments as a crime story when the White House Press Secretary openly says “every Democrat-run city” instead of “high-crime city.”

That’s not merely repeating their lie, it’s changing an admission into a lie for them.
No one would be confused about what is happening here if they saw it in another country.

New numbers show ICE is devouring US law enforcement: 1 in 5 US marshals, 1 in 5 FBI agents, half of all DEA agents, and over two-thirds of all ATF agents are now assigned to ICE enforcement. These are agencies with critical jobs they're now NOT doing.

there simply isn't enough coverage of the fact that, as a matter of ideology and public policy, trump and his administration think domestic violence is good
Trump minimizes domestic abuse during a talk at the Museum of the Bible: "Things that take place in the home, they call crime ... If a man has a little fight with the wife, they say this was a crime, see?"

The NYT Editorial Board told you that “Every Day is Jan. 6 Now,” & “the Republic faces an existential threat,” and then its entire news operation & editors went right back to doing whatever 👆 is on a daily basis. I guess they didn’t really mean it, or it was all a joke 🤷‍♂️

Trump dying in office after Biden lived through his term would be such an indictment of the press.

Made “Biden Old” the top story, treating it as an uncovered secret, a scandal. Then lamented not covering it even more. All while treating “Trump Old” as a nonstory. Because he’s loud and lies a lot.

I see. So he will sue California (a bullshit threat) for something he openly encouraged Texas to do???
Trump is worried about California’s redistricting efforts to counter act Texas Republicans gerrymandering.

He tells reporters he will utilize the Department of Justice to sue California.

Weaponizing the DOJ against the state.

In case you wondered whether ICE has fully transitioned to a tool of a fascist regime: This is not something any federal agent should shout at a member of the public.
While masked agents were violently attacking a delivery worker this morning, bystanders repeatedly asked to see their badge numbers but they refused.

Bystander: You guys are ruining this country, you know that, right?

Agent: Liberals already ruined it.

Trump is reportedly creating a loyalty scorecard that rates how hard corporations work to support his agenda. 

His regime is apparently planning to consult the ratings when considering corporate requests. 

This is how things work in a dictatorship.
