King of the Weirdos Trump is lashing out in a racist panic against President Kamala Harris, and Republicans are so mad their Weird ideas are subjecting them to ridicule

Every post by Tim Pool is:
1) Trump in he-man fantasy attire
2) Civil War Civil War Civil War!
3) Women should be nice to me

"She will not show up for the prime minister’s joint session of Congress today.  She would rather address, in the summer, a sorority — a colored sorority — like she can’t get out of that. So that’s her decision..."  - Weirdo Brian Kilmeade of Faux Friends (07/24/24)

Trump is the King of Weirdos and in a full-blown panic over soon-to-be President Kamala Harris.  So, when given a platform during an interview with the NABJ, Trump lobbed a full-blown racist tirade in keeping with his utter bigoted weirdness.  

Trump is, of course, a sick, depraved, and criminal weirdo.  His latest attack on President Harris is the charge she isn't really black.  This is, of course, a standard bigoted Republican attack.  They put the onus on Kamala Harris to prove to them she is really black and as we saw with Barack Obama she can never reach the goalposts they will continually move.  Additionally, white Republican racists love to claim Kamala Harris is engaged in identity politics unlike them because white male couch fucking Republican is normal or standard and everyone else is a derivative, DEI HIRE!

Now, to reactionary white males huffing each others farts and reposting the same sexist memes about Vice President Kamala Harris this is a devastating attack and fits in with their blinkered weird worldview in which they are the final arbiters of other people lives, backgrounds, and rights.  But, to regular Americans it's gross and weird.

But, for Trump its' a rallying cry for his base of gross, weird, sexist, disgusting white men and a way for him to steal some attention off of the surging Kamala Harris candidacy.  And equally disgusting will be the Corporate Media response which will cover this latest Trump scandal without actually calling him the gross, weird, racist he is or for Trump to withdraw from the race.

The reason the Democratic charge about weirdo Republicans with weirdo ideas resonates with the American people is because it's true.  Republicans have for years claimed to be the Real Americans but, with the advent of Faux News and SocialMedia they are engaged in a escalating loop of "incestuous amplification" and are in a state of "Epistemic Closure".  Trump realized he's King of the Weirdos and capitalized with his Trump NFTs years ago, but this wasn't an awareness of his weirdness but of his constant grifting and con-artistry.

Republicans are an insular cult of weirdoes.  From top-to-bottom a cult of navel gazing incels and tyrants who yearn to foist and force their weirdo ideas onto everyone.  Republicans are not serious people.  But, their creepy unlawful weird ideas are very serious.  The weirdest and most serious idea percolating in the weirdo Republican world is their plan to thwart the Will of the American People and declare criminal Loser Trump the winner.

Kevin Roberts, the bloodthirsty villain heading up the Heritage Foundation, plan to eliminate millions of people, hinted that rightwingers have a plan to simply ignore Trump's upcoming electoral defeat and have him declared the winner in the 2024 Presidential election.

Kevin Roberts, you will recall said we are in the "midst of the second American Revolution", which will remain bloodless as long as the left acquieses to Fascist Republican Dictatorship.  The weird, off-putting, tyrannical ideas in the Project 2025 are illuminating the weird Republican agenda

Please don't write Vivek is mad!

Kamala Harris is going to win the Presidential election by 10 Million votes but weirdo Republicans aren't worried about losing the Vote as they plan to simply declare Trump the Winner.  I'm guessing this will somehow involve the Independent State Legislature theory and all the traitors that have been placed into key government positions to subvert the election and conduct a bureaucratic coup d'etat.

I really hope people inside the Biden Administration are planning for this contingency because it's a far greater threat than actual street-level violence form MAGA domestic terrorists.  Coups succeed because 99.9% of military and law enforcement does not get involved in the actual attempt to overthrow a government.

And your rightwing uncle has been a frog in the slowly boiling on-line reactionary soup.  At this point he's conditioned and ready to help overthrow the American Government (which he refers to as "The Deep State") destroy all law enforcement agencies (which he knows have been "weaponized" against Trump) and support the rounding up of migrants, Trans people, Kamala Harris, AOC, any other childless cat lady as determined by Couch Fucker Vance (because they are loons and criminals).  Republican politicians are weird.  Republican men are creepy.  Republicans don't know how to attack Kamala Harris other than with disgusting sexist and racist bullshit.

Louisiana Republican weirdo John Kennedy is a creepy phony foghorn leghorn, who spent an entire Faux News interview calling soon-to-be President Kamala Harris names.  Faux News journalist Neil Cavuto tried over and over and over again to steer weirdo Kennedy into not making personal sexist and insulting racist attacks against Vice President Harris and he could not do it.  None of them can because Republicans are weirdos.

What's really telling is as the Republicans are weird is taking hold  and the Harris campaign gains traction erstwhile liberals and journalists are all of a sudden worried about bullying and name-calling and concern trolling that calling Republicans weird is wrong.  It is precisely because Republicans are weird and pointing it out makes the Corporate Media uncomfortable because it shows how their bothsides bullshit and water-carrying for weirdo Republicans was done to help creepy weirdo bigoted Republicans get elected.

So, don't expect The Corporate Media to call for Trump's immediate resignation and just watch as they massage, rationalize, deflect, and continue taking him neither literally or seriously.  

But, Vice President Harris does and she is fighting them.  When we fight, We Win!

Wagner Group Coup Attempt? Republicans worry about Putin's well-being!

Update:

Was it all a ruse?  This "Insurrection" launched while Prigozhin was so far from Moscow?  I can only hope President Biden is receiving detailed and  timely information.  And I can't say I see the geo-political benefit to Putin.  Nor how the Attempted Coup solidifies Putin's power.  As his Lieutenants had to work it out without his imprimatur.  

Wisconsin disgrace Ron Johnson, who likes to spend his 4th of July, paying fealty to Vladimir Putin might be considering a resolution to send troops into Russia to help Putin put down the apparent Coup attempt launched by Yevgeny Prigozhin, the head of the paramilitary Wagner group.

This began when Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu, issued a decree that all Paramilitary groups must sign a loyalty oath to the Ministry of Defense by July 1st.  Prigozhin, began this action, by claiming in a nod to Russian history that the Tsar has been deceived and it's up to him to remove the bad bureaucratic elements enriching themselves and betraying Russia!  Wagner group then claimed to have been fired upon by Russian military forces and Prigozhin turned his mercenaries backs towards Russia, seizing Rostov-on-Don and sending advance elements into Voronezh in an obvious attempt to make it to Moscow.  Putin has vowed to destroy this rebellion and thus far at least enough of his shattered military is responding instead of standing aside;

"All those who consciously stood on the path of betrayal, who prepared an armed rebellion, stood on the path of blackmail and terrorist methods, will suffer inevitable punishment, before the law and before our people,"Putin said in a five-minute speech.

Prigozhin seems to have bitten off more than he can Coup, because an attempt like this relies upon speed and not allowing heavy weaponry and military units interfere.  Wagner group has captured some equipment as well so their eventual inability to resupply is not yet a factor but, if they get bogged down or if Putin manages to deploy loyal troops to engage in a protracted skirmish to slow/stop the Wagner group advance it may signal the end of the Coup attempt.  

Also taking a wait and see approach are the rabid Putin loving Reactionaries who for 16 months have declared Ukraine's resistance and US/NATO support of said resistance a monstrous mistake and tantamount to a war crime.  Glenn Greenwald has yet to weigh in on this monumental situation and is silent down in Brazil because he doesn't know who will be signing his checks come tomorrow morning.

Florida is the epicenter for Coup Attempts in the Untied States and Brazil

So, Jair Bolsonaro the leader who arguably killed more of his citizens than Ron DeathSantis moved to Orlando, Florida and strolled down the street like an exalted foreign potentate has now launched on Trump Style Insurrection Brazil.
Thousands of supporters of Brazil’s former rightwing president Jair Bolsonaro stormed the country’s Congress, supreme court and presidential palace on Sunday, creating a crisis for new leftist leader Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva just a week into his presidency. 

Social media footage showed crowds vandalising the interiors of the three institutions in Brasília in scenes reminiscent of the US Capitol invasion two years ago by supporters of ex-president Donald Trump. Clad in the yellow and green of the Brazilian flag, the protesters demanded Lula’s election victory be overturned, that the leftwinger be imprisoned and for a military coup d’état. Around 150 people were arrested, local media reported.
Jair Bolsonaro lost re-election in Brazil last year and every right-winger in the United States was imploring him to stay and deny the results of the Election and simply stay in power

“Well, wait a second,” Tucker Carlson said with a furrowed brow. “The election is still ongoing. The incumbent has not conceded. How do you know the claims are, quote, false? Well, of course, you don’t. You’re taking sides and using censorship to cement the results in place. This is propaganda. YouTube is interfering in a democratic election in a sovereign nation. How is that allowed?”

Steven Bannon and Stephen Miller ran with the lie that Lula stole the election aided by President Biden, the State Department and the CIA and suggested violence was the answer.  Steve Bannon appears to be key facilitator for setting both the Jan6th Insurrection and the Bolsonaro Brazilian Coup attempt in motion.

And it's incontrovertible that if Donald John Fucking Traitor Trump had been in office during the 2022 Brazil Election Bolsanaro would have denied the results, arrested Lula and his supporters, stayed in Office and instituted a Junta.  Recall Traitor Trump was silent when the paramilitary goons of Turkish Dictator Erdoğan, attacked a group of mostly American protesters outside the Turkish ambassador’s residence in Washington, D.C. 9 Americans were wounded by the Turkish guards.

Did Ron DeSantis have any pre-knowledge of the Coup Attempt?  Did Ron DeSantis provide aid to Bolsanaro?  Did DeSantis facilitate the strategy or provide Florida as a staging and planning with this?  Did Mike Flynn meet with Bolsonaro?  Did DeSantis have a plane standing by to jet Bolsonaro back to Brazil if his supporters started and the military toppled the Lula Government?

What's clear is Fascism spearheaded by Republicans, Faux News, and on-line rightwing propagandists are exporting the American version and supporting authoritarians worldwide and Florida is a Nexus.

The Long Road to January 6th and the Long Road from January 6th towards Justice

Update: Whoa! President Joe Biden usurped my post here by laying out the facts of Trump's Attempt to Overthrow the United States Government.  All the while never mentioning the Republican Traitor's name.
A year has passed since Conservatives, inspired by Donald John Trump, planned by members of the Trump cabal, aided by Republicans in Congress and funded, supported, and transported by Rightwing luminaries attempted to overthrow the United States government.

Now, rightwing propagandists and Republican conspirators have attempted to deny their role, obscure the truth about the criminals who attacked the Nation, and propose a revisionist history of the incident.  But, I will never forget, Never Forget, those white puffy faced rioters strolling nonchalantly out of the Capitol building; arms raised in Triumph, ecstatic, openly mugging for the camera.  And Trump giddy at the spectacle.

But, fortunately many arrests have been made and sentences relating to the Coup d'etat have been handed out, the evidence presented having proven over and over again Trump, his MAGA Mob, and numerous members of the Republican Party attempted to destroy the democracy of the United States through violence.

But, many Americans remain angry and afraid the architects and prime movers of the Insurrection remain at large and seem free to obfuscate, lie, and plot again.


Attorney General Merrick Garland has caught flak for not speeding the pace of the arrests.  But, AG Garland is not pursuing some petty thief or drunk driver he's building the largest case of Malfeasance and Conspiracy against the United States Government since the Iran-Contra Affair and pursuing the worst Traitor to the United States since the Confederacy; Donald John Trump. 

This effort and investigation has got to be flawless, immaculately researched, detailed and double checked and then checked again because conservatives have been gearing up, theorizing and fantasizing about overthrowing the United States government for years.

For instance, back in February 2014, Stan Solomon spoke with the venerable rightwing icon Phyllis Schlafy over marching on Washington D.C. to depose President Obama and remove him and others by force and violence;
“If we would have not 100,000 but 100 million march on Washington and say, ‘No way,’ I don’t think our military and the few pitiful police they have there wouldn’t be able to stop us,” Stan Solomon said, “I don’t think our military would fire on the American people. And we need to clean that cesspool of Democrats and Republicans, of illegals certainly, and say it’s time to save America for America, basically.” “Yes, I agree, America for Americans,” Schlafly responded.
One year later Traitor Trump would adopt this America for Americans propaganda under the banner of Make America Great Again.  The corpse of Phyllis Schlafy would spend her final hours on earth embracing Trump and transferring over the legitimacy of her 40+ years as a rightwing icon. 

Of course, the grossest thing about all of this is all this destruction aimed at the United States by internal enemies is it is all for Donald Trump.  Comically, like all Fascists, DJ Trump has ZERO accomplishments and is all talk and self-congratulations.  Now, the tragedy is that talk is catalyst of the rendering asunder of the Democratic Republic.  Perhaps... such a fission was always in the offing.  I certainly think so with the undemocratic and authoritarian maneuvers conservatives have engaged in since they lost Richard Nixon in 1974 and the subversion has only accelerated since the Republicans stole the 2000 election.

But, all this for Trump?  His venal crimes and stupidity date back decades when the Nixon-era Department of Justice cited his father and him for racial discrimination.

A few of the more dramatic lowlights: 
  • Trump and his Criminal Family were found liable for defrauding a Veteran's Charity and ordered to payback $2,000,000 while also being Court-ordered to attend classes, and are barred from running a charity in New York State.
  • Trump was also found liable for his scam University and was had a $25,000,000 fraud settlement upheld against him.
Traitor Trump smashed the United States, too
But, no matter what crimes are uncovered about Trump, his Horde of Cultists don't care because they got what they wanted Maladministration; emotional affirmation and the dopamine fix of feeling their enemies were made to suffer.  The feeling of belonging, of being part of the in-group, of Power.  Conservatives jettisoned their so-called beliefs, morals, principles for Fascism.

Because conservatives (as natural authoritarians) yearned for a Fascist Savior for a long, long time.  Thus, having been conditioned by years of rabid social media falsehoods, decades of agitprop email chain letters, 25 years of Faux News lies, 40 years of toxic Talk Radio, 60 years of John Bircher propaganda, and 150 years of Revisionist Civil War History the culmination was the elevation of a senile, overweight, mobbed up, grifter, conman, rapist, racist, traitor Donald Fvcking Trump to President.

But all that is the past, in the present we have to deal with the Republican Party as it stands; a Fully Fascist, anti-democratic authoritarian organization hoping to "win" enough of Congress this year to outlaw free and fair elections and ensconce themselves into Permanent Control of the United States.

So, the task facing Merrick Garland is to assemble as air-tight a case as possible.  But, understand bad actors on Fox, disingenuous right-wingers on social media are ready, willing and more than able to pounce on any error and will create as much disjunction, confusion, and throw everything they can to undermine justice as possible.

The United States 2021: A Break the glass moment.

Representative Sean Casten held a small event in which he spoke about the threat we are facing from the lawless authoritarian Republican Party.  While Congressman Casten highlighted the bureaucratic roadblocks he did not shy away from invoking the Civil War.  Specifically, uttering the chilling phrase "break the glass moment". 

The Trump administration and their Republican allies planned a Coup, with a snappy Powerpoint presentation, outlining multiple methods of bureaucratic chicanery in their planned attack on Democracy and to overthrow the US Government.  On Jan 6th, Trump roused his hand-picked mob, to give his crimes a sheen of a popular uprising, as he hoped Pence would overthrow President Biden's November victory and if Pence wouldn't do it on his own accord well then his wonderful Insurrectionists would make it legal.  But, this isn't just about the Trump Golpe de Estado attempt (which everyone around Traitor Trump knew was a massive MAGA crime) but, also about how the Republican Party long ago jettisoned their commitment to elections or representation to the Nation.

Faced with losing elections, Republicans made the time honored authoritarian decision to pick their own voters, since voters won't pick them.  Faced with the problem of legislation, Republicans decided to let special interests and lobbying groups for the Rich and powerful write their legislation.  Faced with the will of the people being completely against them, Republicans have stolen the Supreme Court to ensure, their 5 Injustices undermine any future limitations upon them and retroactively undo past achievements. 

I have no doubt the Democrats in Congress understand the danger they, the Nation, and We the People are facing.  I also think Democrats are afraid.  And rightly so.  Because many Republicans are waiting, yearning, begging for anything they can use as a Casus Belli and begin slaughtering the Non-MAGA. 

Everyone is mad Merrick Garland, Speaker Pelosi and the Democratic leadership et al haven't announced the expulsions, Impeachments, and arrests of Trump, his cronies and Republicans in Congress and the Supreme Court.  But, it should be obvious that those moves are the Casus Belli Republicans are waiting for and will usher in violence from the right.

So... we wait.  The current election is always the most important election.  Republicans think their legerdemain and voting suppression will garner them the House and Senate in 2022 and they can quash the investigations.  Democrats hope the steady flow of damning evidence will lead to more and more arrests and prosecutions.

But, the Republican Party is a fully Fascist organization now.  The current young Republicans are third generation to grow up, fully immersed in the non-stop barrage of rightwing lies and propaganda.  Republicans are growing more and more comfortable with the prospect of Violence to achieve political power.  There are thousands of conservatives who want to drop liberals from helicopters, who want to go to any rally or demonstration and shoot people.  There are millions more conservatives who would willingly go along.

Republicans already launched the first salvo on January 6th...

Everything illustrates The January 6th Trump Coup was worse than we thought

"Just say that the election was corrupt + leave the rest to me and the Republican Congressmen," Trump said on a call with Acting Attorney General Jeffery Rosen and acting deputy attorney general Richard Donoghue.

                                                   

It's no wonder the entire Republican Party are fighting viciously to keep information about their Golpe de Estado on Jan 6th hidden and forgotten.  Every new revelation indicates the Republican attempt to overthrow the United States came closer and had far greater coordination than we've thought.

As I watched in real time the mic-up'd battle rattle Ranger file march up the steps through the deluded rapacious mob on the Capitol Steps,  I knew that was a Kill/Capture team gunning for every Democratic Representative they could and probably the Vice President.

The Trump Coup Plotters really thought (or expected) a counter-protest by BLM in Washington DC would delay and draw off any police response to the Capitol building and leave the rabble the opportunity to round-up and execute anyone who would deny Trump his Presidency.  It's why Trump appointed Dept of Defense officials delayed response to the Capitol.  It's why Trump ignored calls from Non-MAGA Republicans to stop the riot.  It's why Trump is praising domestic terrorist Ashli Babbitt.  

Meanwhile as the insurrectionists breached the Capitol, key Republicans were tweeting out real time location data on Speaker Nancy Pelosi.  Those same Republican traitors provided other material aid and comfort to the criminal conservative coup members.

Now comes further proof that Trump and his cronies were in direct communication with the insurrectionists during the siege.  And were still pressuring Mike Pence to overturn the election results as Pence was hiding from the rioters.

The Republican Party stands for nothing and has nothing to offer the American people.  This is why the Republicans have increased their pace of voter suppression and are actively working on installing Trump in 2024.  Seizing power and instituting an oppressive white fundamentalist ethno-state, with government enforced eternal wage slavery and corporate bondage.

So, going forward it may be that the House Republicans who actively participated and provided intel to the rightwing domestic terrorists may get away with it.  Trump may be able to avoid justice as he has done throughout his long criminal career.  Everyone is worried what will happen in 2024 if Republicans control the House of Representatives in 2022 since Traitor Trump will be the GOP nominee for President.

If that's the case (hopefully not) then Republicans will overturn the election results or just flat out ignore their losses and collect their "winnings".  Trump will then be installed, granted a 3rd term in 2028 to "make up" for his stolen 2020 victory and turn the his daughter as the GOP makes the Presidency hereditary in the Trump Family...

The immovable IG Report meets the irresistible Rightwing propaganda

The shockingly shameful circus on display during the Trump Impeachment Hearings has now confirmed the entire Republican Party is naught but a criminal conspiracy.

Immediately upon release of the almost 500 pages of the Horowitz Inspector General Report, Republicans were running with the same playbook as the Mueller Report; We told you! Total Exoneration! Shocking corruption by the Democrats! No Collusion! We told you! Clinton and Obama and Ukraine and Russia spied on Trump! Coup Attempt! Government overthow!

Conservatives couldn't tell a Coup d'etat from a Coupe DeVille.

This is a morally bankrupt and wholly disingenuous display but sound strategy by the Republicans. A handful of conservatives are going to actually read the report and most of those are bad faith actors who will elide or obfuscate on the true findings to present "bleeding chunks" of the report selectively to the Barbarian horde of #MAGA. From there the army of  Twitter MAGA will flood every avenue of social media to ensure the lies and falsehoods presented by AG Bill Barr, Faux News, Hate Radio, and the rightwing disinformation machine are repeated over and over and over and over and over. 

The truth of the report will be lost in the flood of rightwing propaganda and screams of Fake News!

Every topic of American life is subject to these up-is-down, black-is-white bad faith Republican arguments; from healthcare, to the environment, the 2nd Amendment to Education. This wholesale bad faith by the Republicans is not something the Democratic Party, the apparatus of Government, the foundational documents, the Nation, or We the People can withstand. Especially, since the Republicans have weaponized their bad faith arguments to rile up the Reactionary #MAGAts. And conservatives no longer need to receive Republican propaganda from on high; they've long adopted techniques of self-radicaliztion.

Even this short New Republic article is far too long and far too nuanced for Trumpublicans too read when tweets from Chuck Grassley, Lou Dobbs, or the Chosen One himself declare the Obama FBI and Ukraine tried to steal the 2016 election. This is the Endgame everyone. There is no way back from this.

The Second President of the Confederacy D.J. Trump declares Civil War 2.0

The Confederacy is not a place; it's a people. - Trump All Father
As I predicted, faced with his legal removal Trump has decided threatening violence and stoking civil war is his best recourse. He raised the Spectre of a COUP in his beyond outrageous tweeter feed. BTW, fuck you @ Jack Dorsey for your platform which is overrun with fascists and is amplifying Trump's incitements. Twitter does have a clear bias and it's for The Fash. 

Of course, while Twitler screeches 'Coup' 'Coup' 'Coup', like a syphilitic rooster, I must at least point out the Conservative Maga Horde could not tell a Coup d'etat from a Coupe DeVille. Edward Luttwak defines a Coup d'etat as "the infiltration of a small but critical segment of the state apparatus, which is then used to displace the government from its control of the remainder." (Coup d'Etat pg.12)

Nor is this a Putsch or Pronunciamiento or Cuartelazo or any other term for an overthrow of a government. But, the Oathbreakers and III Inch Penises and other rightwing paramilitary domestic terrorists stand ready to slaughter Americans.

This is beyond reckless and beyond outrageous and beyond whatever other modifier you want to attach. But, here we are... Trump is just the figurehead for the culmination of 50 years of evil rightwing hatred, policy agenda, and propaganda efforts.

Conservatives learned lessons form Vietnam and Watergate. They will never allow another Republican President to be impeached no matter what crimes President Trump has committed and is committing.

Conservatives also adopted the IOKIYAR It's Okay If You're a Republican) defense. Roy Moore, Gym Jordan, Brett Kavanugh's offenses were all ignored and an active smear campaign defense was adopted because these men are dutiful warriors helping to advance the rightwing agenda of intolerance and oppression. These Rape-publcians knew never to apologize but, to instead attack their victims and accusers.

The other lesson conservatives learned that all the talk about Demographic destiny and long-term damage to a Party is nonsense. There is no Long Term only Short Term. Win now and by the time the next election rolls around the fallout from your destructive victory back then will be forgotten or overshadowed by the current crisis. George W. Bush's criminal maladministration should have shunted the Republican Party to the political wilderness for a generation yet after losing in 2006 and 2008 they roared back into power in 2010 and hamstrung Barack Obama's Presidency, dutifully aided by the Media who also helped propel Traitor D.J. Trump into a viable candidate.

Of course, this underplays the True Coup which has been going on for decades in America. The Republican Party routinely loses elections but, due to their masterful skill at manipulating the Apparatus of Government routinely get control of the Government. Republicans have lost 5 of the last 6 Presidential Elections yet it hasn't slowed or reversed their Ultra-Reactionary policies. Republicans often receive less overall votes for State and Federal Legislatures but because of their voter suppression and unlawful district mapping programs win more seats.

The True Coup, the long term slow moving Coup, has been the Republican Party maintaining and gaining more and more political power and control as their voting base shrinks.

Now, faced with the real prospect of having their Chosen One, the Racist Rapist selected by the Electoral Collage for the White House, removed conservatives are turning back to their tried and true lever of controlling the Government; Violence.

Conservatives are aching, yearning, waiting for the order to begin killing the Non-#Maga. And before you dismiss this because the rightwing domestic terrorists have no planes and no tanks understand: the Arch-Traitor Oathkeepers don't believe they will beat the U.S. Army, they believe as their sporadic acts of rightwing terror unfold and morph into full-blown Civil War, the U.S. Army will join them.

The FBI Plot and Conservative Coup d'etat against America

"Well, the damage is done to Hillary Clinton," Kellyanne Conway revels in the FBI Plot to steal the election.

Conservatives have hated America for the last 50 years. In 1968, right-wingers began their long war against the United States to destroy the Democratic Republic and replace it with a Neo-Feudal Wage Slave State.

While in regular coup d'etats an actual military/ paramilitary assault and capture of key governmental facilities and persons is required the conservatives have been infiltrating and undermining the fabric of society, shredding the social contract, deregulating commerce and industry, destroying institutions of authority, while catapulting propaganda to inculcate violent stupid and active ignorant feral followers.

The Republican Plot has worked beautifully since Ronnie Raygun's Regime in the 1980's and continues to bear strange fruit. But, along the way while the Nation was turned into a Plutocracy, the conservative cancer revived the strain of white supremacy which Republicans sought to use for electoral advantage without ever ceding actual political power.

Now, just a week before the 2016 elections the FBI has made their move to overthrow the will of the American People and help install a short-fingered, morally and financially bankrupt abuser into the White House.

The Republican Party is all in because they see 2016 is their last chance at thwarting the Will of  the People and entrenching themselves into the Federal Government.

The slow moving conservative coup has yielded fantastic rewards such as the stolen 2000 Presidential Election and the stolen gerrymandered 2014 Congressional Races which saw Democratic Candidates win millions more votes than Republicans and lose the House by a wide margin.

Bolstered by falsehoods from anti-Clinton rogue FBI agents, Faux News began the ball rolling by having Bret Baier claim indictments were forthcoming against HRC.

Known liar Sean Hannity spent the last week repeating these Faux News lies and ignoring the two murdered Des Moines Iowa LEOs. Now elected Republicans and Trump spokesliars are repeating the lies and running with the "I'm hearing" indictments are forthcoming and 'some people say' innuendo.

The incestuous amplification effect which Dick Cheney and Republicans used to sell the Iraq War is at play again. Conservatives have made it clear they will use violence when they lose, Republicans are playing immediate impeachment and girdlock, and Trump has declared HRC's victory will mean a Constitutional Crisis.

In actuality, the Nation is in and has been in a Constitutional Crisis for years as Republicans have abrogated responsible governing and adopted a nihilistic philosophy of destroying the Nation in order to "save it".

Right-wing domestic terrorist kills 2 Iowa Police Officers and conservatives don't care

Unless, someone helps advance the evil conservative agenda they do not count as real Americans. Nor do conservatives honor those who do not hold to right-wing orthodoxy. It matters not if you are a Veteran or Police Officer if you oppose them, conservatives will engage in the politics of personal destruction against you.

Conservatives don't give a shit about Cops. On every issue conservatives are bloodsucking parasites who view people as a means of advancing the right-wing agenda of intolerance, oppression, and the adulation of the rich.

The ambush and execution style murder of two Iowa Police Officers, would seem to fulfill the right-wing rhetoric of Obama's and #BlackLivesMatter War on Cops except the alleged murderer is a Trump-lovin', confederate flag wavin', white power spoutin' red-blooded white american name Scott Michael Greene.

Thus, Faux News and the right-wing internet are silent. This attack on Police doesn't conform to their propaganda, it doesn't advance their agenda, it doesn't aid the conservative slow moving coup d'état; thus it is as if it never happened.

Of course, the murderer was allowed to surrender even after killing two cops in two separate ambush style attacks. Personally, I'm okay with his capture because the Iowa State Police and FBI should be able to garner intel from this killer but, the fact that this Trump supporting cop killer can surrender and not be immediately shot dead after killing two officers will not surprise the black and other minority communities, who are never afforded the opportunity to surrender when unarmed.

As we have seen over and over again, right-wing domestic terrorism is coddled and encouraged in America, especially because the perpetrators are overwhelmingly white males. We have an entire News Organization, large swaths of the internet, and elected Republicans officials espousing armed revolution and the removal President HRC immediately after her winning the election. So, two, or three or more dead Cops killed to advance the right-wing take over of America is a price conservatives are willing to pay and willing to extract.

The Conservative Coup to turn The United States into The Neo-Confederacy

"Are you going to pull those pistols or whistle Dixie?"
America has been undergoing a rapdily accelerating Coup by Conservatives. After their military defeat during the Civil War, the conservatives of this Nation began a campaign of low-grade guerilla warfare against America targeting Women, Liberals, Unionists, Minorities, and Immigrants; all groups oppossed to the creation of the Southern White Man's Utopia the Neo-Confederacy.

Since the Era of Ronald Reagan, who opened up his white resentment campaign in Philadelphia, Mississippi, with "I believe in state's rights. I’m going to devote myself to trying to reorder those priorities and to restore to the states and local communities those functions which properly belong there." Conservatives have inflitrated enough areas of local, state, and federal government to alter, undermine and neuter protections for the American People and re-establish the Era when the 1% Ruled and White Conservatives acted as Whip Holders and Attack Dogs keeping everyone else in line.

But, in the last 15 years, they've accelearated their efforts, with major strikes at the heart of Democracy.
  • The impeachment of President Bill Clinton.
  • Convicted Criminal Tom DeLay and other Republicans redistricting Congressional Districts to devalue Democratic Votes. 
  • The Stolen 2000 Presidential Election, in which Al Gore won the Popular Vote by almost a million votes and won more votes in Florida.
  • The SCOTUS rulings especially Bush v. Gore and Citizen's United and Shelby County v. Holder.
  • The Congressional Obstruction during Barack Obama's Presidency.
Recall that beginning in 2009 Republicans declared their number one goal was to ensure President Obama was a one-term President, not to help American struggling with the Republican Recession, not to deal with the Global War on Terror which conservatives by and large avoided, nope their goal was to get back to undercutting the American Middle Class and impoverishing the American Worker in order to create the Neo-Confederate Corporate dominated Wage Slave State.

Senator Tom Cotton is King of the 47 Traitors


When I say Republicans you say Traitors...

A while ago, I wrote that the Republican party had staged a coup d'état, in that a small group of Politicians had seized effective control of the Government contrary to the Will of the People. This weekend we had confirmation the Republican party had attempted to seize power and subvert the United States Constitution and System of Government.

47 Republican Traitors in the U.S. Senate sent a letter directly to the Government in Iran, indicating that even if they reach an agreement with President Obama, the Traitors will not honor it. The charge to undermine President Obama is being led by Senator Tom Cotton, a military veteran, but 46 other Republicans including Mark Kirk of Illinois, another veteran, signed on for this treasonous course of action.

Now, it should come as no surprise as the Republican Party has a long history of subverting the sitting President of the United States vis-a-vis Iran, in order to usurp power. But, the reason in this case is multi-faceted.

For the first part, the Republican Party is wholly owned and operated by the Rich. And how do the Rich get richer? By using the awesome power of Government to steal money from the Poor. And what is the faster way to steal from the Poor? War. And thus the Republicans, the Guardians of the Plutocracy, are trying to start a War with Iran in order to funnel more of the Wealth up to their Rich Masters.

But, while their goal is a War with Iran with which they will steal another 3 Trillion dollars from the American People, the Republicans are petty, petulant children who can not stand the idea of another Foreign Policy success by President Obama. One which the American People between now and January 2017 would probably grow to agree with if Iran honors the terms of the Agreement.

So, the Republicans figured they could just flout The Logan Act and undermine the Negotiations because they had assumed their coup had been successful.
A Coup consists of the infiltration of a small but critical segment of the state apparatus, which is then used to displace the government from its control of the remainder. - Edward Luttwak, Coup d'Etat: A Practical Handbook
Republicans are natural cowards and traitors, whose sole purpose for existing is to destroy America and institute a Neo-Feudal Nation engaged in a Perpetual State of War, in which the 99% are either shackled in Corporate Bondage or ground down by the gears of War, dying and being wounded in order to fill the coffers of the Plutocracy.

Updated:
"Israel struck Iraq's nuclear program in 1981 and they didn't reconstitute it," Tom Traitor Cotton, admits on Tuesday March 11th, that Iraq did not have a WMD program and the Neocon Wars were naught but a scheme to swindle Trillions, which resulted in over 4000 American deaths, a million dead Iraqis, and wounded hundreds of thousands of Americans, which they'll spend their whole lives recovering.

Conservatives and Guns have turned the US into a Failed State.

Another day another shooting. Another weekend in Chicago another dozen shot.

The shooting at Reynolds High School east of Portland, Oregon is the 74th school shooting since the Massacre at Sandy Hook in Newton. The problem is the proliferation of guns.

Guns. Guns. Guns.

Of course, besides flooding the Nation with hundreds of millions of firearms the other issue equally to blame for the Gun Violence is the existence Right-Wing Tea Party ideology which creates thousands of conservative drones ready to conduct Domestic Terrorist attacks over the faux scandals of Umbrella-Gate, the rescuing of an American POW, or when Alex Jones proclaims every shooting is a False Flag.

Everything else is a secondary issue. Without the guns, we would not be losing 30,000 Americans with another 100,000 a year at least wounded by gunfire. Of course, we'll never how many people are wounded each and every year by gun humping fanatics because the NRA and Republican Party will fight every effort to stop Gun Violence.

This is something you expect in an African Nation which having just thrown off the shackles of Western Imperialism, became embroiled in a Civil War, then a Military Junta followed by a Communist Revolution and then a Right-Wing coup d'état.

Not here. Not in the USA; the Beacon of Freedom, the Shining City on a Hill, the World's so-called Greatest Democratic Republic.

Right-Wingers and Republicans always proclaim every one of these Conservative Domestic Terrorist attacks are actually done by Leftists and registered Democrats.

And why wouldn't lying Republicans claim this? The Media won't call them out for their lies. The American Right has a strong fascist streak.
"Here are the 3 rules of Fascism; Make Shit up, Scream it Loudly, and then Kill People." - Eddie Izzard, Chicago Theater 06/09/14.
But, consider what the NRA and conservatives have embraced as the cause and solution. Mental Illness and a Federal Database to catalogue those suffering from it.

Apparently within the epistemically closed right-wing fart bubble they are unaware of how committal was used in the past as a weapon. Today's involuntary committal forms have several declarations that must be signed by the complainant. They affirm the complainant has no legal case against the person to be committed, there is no pending financial dispute and state the nature of their relationship.

Now, as a corollary, Conservatives claim Liberalism is a mental disease.

So, the question is based on these right-wing claims about Liberalism and the political ideology of mass shooters would the NRA and conservative gun humpers support confiscating all guns owned by registered Democrats and self-proclaimed Liberals?

Because US Congressmen are paralyzed or complicit. State Governments have Tea Party madmen increasing the availability of Guns and engaging in murderous schemes granting every right-wing domestic terrorist the ability to carry weapons anywhere while adopting vague laws which ensure every confrontation will descend into gun fights.

The Republican Party, their conservative drones and Tea Party Domestic Terrorists have done their job. They've sundered the Nation.

Las Vegas "This is the start of a Revolution"; Right-Wing Domestic Terrorism in full effect (Updated)

View image on Twitter
Our picture of Jerad Miller guarding the road into Bundy Ranch in mid-April:
The Right-Wing Revolution to overthrow the Government of the United States has progressed beyond a coup d'état by the 300 Republicans in the federal government and into a shooting war where Conservative Domestic Terrorists are gunning down Law Enforcement Officers.

Conservatives will not be satisfied until they undo the Will of the American People and enforce their evil through the barrel of a gun.

Conservatism is Terrorism.

Two Bundyists ambushed and murdered two Las Vegas Police Officers then absconded to a Wal-Mart where they killed another person before taking their own lives.

Dean Heller, the US Republican Senator from Nevada, gave his full support to these two and hundreds more Bundyists conservative terrorists in their showdown with the BLM, emboldening them to murder to Las Vegas Police Officers. "What Senator Reid may call domestic terrorists, I call patriots," Senator Dean Heller (R). 

The Republican Party fully supports the efforts of Conservative Domestic Terrorists because of the political power it grants them.

The Bundy Ranch Affair proved what everyone in the US Government knew in 2009. Right-Wing Domestic Terrorists pose a serious threat to the American People and Government employees.

The male half of the two killers often posted on Alex Jones Infowars, asking the question, 'The Police (To Kill or Not to Kill)'. Little Green Footballs has an early collection of information gathered on this particular Right-Wing Terrorist. (Alex Jones, of course, has proclaimed that these Domestic Terrorists are an MK-ULTRA fueled false-flag government conspiracy unleashed by Senator Harry Reid.)

The Las Vegas Conservative Terrorist Attack came on the heels and overshadowed another one.

In Georgia, a Sovereign Citizen decided to take control of a Georgia Courthouse to kill as many government workers as possible, take hostages and effect political change with his massive armory.

Of course, this Sovereign Citizen can be dismissed because his last name was MARX, and as every conservative domestic terrorist can tell you, 'the Nazis were named National Socialists therefore they are Socialists, duh liberals!'

So Marx was ipso facto a Marxist in the same way that the Chicago Bears Football team is made up of actual Grizzlies and Pandas.

It's bad enough LEOs have to worry about criminal scum buckets, but conservative terrorists are a bigger threat because they have the complete backing of the Republican Party and various well-funded, politically connected Terrorists Organizations like the Roger Ailes Fox News Corp, Wayne LaPierre's NRA and Tony Perkin's Family Research Council.

And no matter the attack Alex Jones or Wayne LaPierre will blame the Government. As when the NRA paraded a Navy SEAL out to make a propaganda video which... claims calling the Murderous Shooting Rampages, "shootings" is the real propaganda.

The Gun Humping Fanatics are rapidly turning our Country into a Failed State. The III Percenters, Open Carry Texas, Oathbreakers, the Cliven Bundyists all fit the classic definition of terrorists; Someone who seeks to effect political change with Violence or the Threat of Violence.

Nonetheless, what conservatives and their Republican backers understand is their implicit threat of violence (Molon Labe) is not getting them the Government Power they crave fast enough so they have moved on to Murder.

Update:
Bradblog has an interview of Daryl Johnson, author of the 2009 DHS report on Rightwing Extremism, by Brian Levin in 2011.

What we have in the US is a systematic turning of a blind eye towards Conservative Extremism. The Media doesn't want to cover it for fear of being labeled Liberal. So they go out of their way to minimize coverage. Additionally, when a Rightwing Domestic Terrorist Organization like the Tea Party or III Percenters or Oathbreakers, begins a disinformation campaign to proclaim some Shooter who was clearly inspired by Right-Wing Rhetoric is actually a Leftist. The Media dutifully covers that angle because it has to ensure both sides of the issue are covered.

Update 2:
The Internet's dumbest man, but most prodigious propagandist, Jim Hoft has declared the Las Vegas  Domestic Terrorists are Leftist Neo-Nazis and the comments are stunning.

This is the continuing cycle of Right-Wing Violence.

Advancing the Free Enterprise System upon the backs of the Working Class in 2014

"They don’t have a true free enterprise system." - Representative Paul Ryan. Erstwhile Catholic Paul Ryan shows his true allegiance as he disagrees with The Pope in order to defend his True Lord, the American One Percent.

Paul Ryan's family "made" all their money by government contracts while Ryan himself went on the government dole after a mere 6 months as a "Businessman". Last year during the Republican coup d'état to overthrow Democracy and install Corporate Control of the Nation, Ryan let on to the real reason the Right was and still is trying to sabotage the now wildly successful ACA, "we're not going to give up on destroying the health care system for the American people."

There are three canards which Right-Wingers repeatedly trot out as the be all, end all; Privatization, Deregulation, and Taxpayer Welfare for the Rich.

What the Republicans and their Moneyed Masters really mean when they recite their mantras is the 1% plans to use the Awesome Power of Government to siphon off money from the from the Poor and Working Class and transfer it to the Rich.

What they seek is giving Corporations and the Rich total economic control over the Nation. The great trick, ALEC and the Rich have pulled is stealing from and oppressing people and getting those people to blame the Government for it.

Freedom Industries poisoned the entire water supply for 300,000 Americans in West Virginia an incident which would have Faux News calling for Jack Bauer to torture every brown person he could find and the Impeachment of President Obama if it was alleged to have been caused by muslim terrorists. Yet, since it was due to the criminal negligence and malfeasance of a Corporation, Speaker of the House John Boehner immediately put the blame on Too Much Regulation and... President Obama.

Freedom Industries recently filed for Bankruptcy protection to ensure they are protected from financial responsibility as well as being protected from criminal prosecution.

Meanwhile, the type of American that Republicans love and conservatism breeds is Terry Rupe of Kentucky. Mr. Rupe receives federal assistance especially medical care for his daughter.
"I don't have any use for the federal government," Rupe said, even though his household's $13,000 yearly income comes exclusively from Washington. "[T]hey've never done anything for me. I'm not ungrateful, but I don't have much faith in this health care law. Do I think it's going to work? No. Do I think it's going to bankrupt the country? Yes."
Getting people to vote themselves into Wage Slavery and Corporate Bondage.
"And the Post Office actually has some real assets. They have real estate, they have an overfunded pension fund..."
Here is Steve Forbes licking his chops at getting at the Post Office Pension where Wall Street financiers can clip it and whittle it away, as they have done to other State Pensions, until the workers have nothing and Forbes has several million more in off-shore bank accounts.

Modern Capitalists like Steve Forbes don't create anything these days, and this is the way the Current Robber Barons are different and perhaps even worse than the Rockefeller's, Mellon's and Morgans of the 19th century. That is the Free Enterprise System Paul Ryan wants to implement. A system in which money is taken from the Workers and given to the Capitalists by Republican Goons.

The bigger a Corporation gets the less and less in real dollars they end up paying in taxes.

ESPN the "Worldwide Leader" in Sports Broadcasting has received $260 Million over 12 years in taxpayer Welfare. Big Fish swim for free. Most subscriber packages come with ESPN and since Americans can't customize their cable choices not only do you have to pay a fee for having the privilege to have ESPN but, part of your taxes subsidizes their existence.

From 2011 through 2012, the CEOs of the top six publicly held fast food chains including McDonald's, Yum! Brands, Wendy's, Burger King, Domino's and Dunkin' Brands, hauled in more than $183 million in fully tax deductible "performance pay," lowering their companies’ IRS bills by an estimated $64 million. "Performance Pay" is a euphemism for taxpayer funded welfare for Billionaires.

In 2009, dozens of American Plutocrats sued to keep their names secret as the Department of Justice began investigating the Swiss-based Banking Giant UBS. It turned out that in the last days of the George W(orst President Ever) Bush Regime, 52,000 Americans illegally stole and moved Hundreds of Billions of purloined loot from the United States into Switzerland. 6 months later UBS agreed to pay a $780 million dollar fine (an unheard of event in the history of Swiss Banking) to keep the names and total dollar amounts stolen secret.

Now, RNC propagandists Reince Priebus and Solomon Yue are pushing for a repeal of the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA), which is set to take effect on 07/01/14.

Approved in 2010 after a tax-avoidance scandal involving a Swiss bank, FATCA requires most foreign banks and investment funds to report to the U.S. Internal Revenue Service information about U.S. customers' accounts worth $50,000 or more.

Of course, the Super Rich who control this country want the Law repealed. The Rich in this Nation aren't increasing the wealth through elbow grease and hard work but through byzantine tax laws, legerdemain and political control.

The American Plutocratic Overlords do want a smaller government; small enough to fit in their pocket. And that is what their Wholly Owned Republican and Pro-Business Democratic henchmen are paid to accomplish.

Happy Right-Wing Coup d'etat Day! Sorry conservatives, George Zimmerman won't be joining you

Today is the Day. The Day Right-Wingers have declared their intention to march on DC and Overthrown the Government
On November 19, 2013, a day that will hopefully live on in the history of our once great republic...
Bristling that America is a Center-Left Nation, Conservatives have been engaged in a 5 year plus campaign to undermine the democratically elected President and usurp power, through lies, bigotry and calls for violence.

The problem is the Coup was accomplished many years ago when the Ultra-Reactionary Neo-Feudalist Government was ensconced by the Rich to return the Country to the control of those who own it.

And the Government of the Plutocracy has been wildly successful at fostering Income Inequality not seen since the Gilded Era of the Robber Barons and the Slave Owning Days of the Founding Fathers. While dismantling and destroying any Governmental institution which aids the Poor and Working Class. 

One Right-Wing champion who will not be aiding in the effort to overthrown the Government is George Zimmerman, who was arrested again. For Domestic Violence... again. With a gun... again.

The reason the Right latched onto and defended Zimmerman was because Conservatives love when black children are murdered and because right-wingers deemed Zimmerman the Vanguard against President Obama.

While conservatism is not in its' "last throes" what we are witnessing is the slow end of undeserved white male privilege and it's not pretty.

The end of White Male Privilege is perhaps the third most dangerous threat facing America, far behind gang crime and Capitalism, but way more dangerous than Islamic Terrorism.

However, it's only going to get worse as the years roll by and the demographic shift continues.

And expect to see more Sovereign Citizen murder of police officers and more young black women shot in the face for ringing a doorbell, and more Open Carry Gun Nuts waiting in ambush for unarmed women and more white supremacists following those people around in order to Take their Country Back.

When you see Open Carry gun nuts walking around in the alert
or admin carry mode, think potential mass shooting.

"Fake" Libertarian spoils the ascension of Ken Cuccinelli in Virginia Governor's Race

The Stab-in-the-Back is the most fulfilling narrative that defeated political campaigns adopt.

In 2000, Al Gore "lost" the Presidency because too many Floridians voted for Ralph Nader. That's the easy sloppy narrative that many progressives seem to believe when the truth is that Gore ran a poor campaign and Republicans in Florida shut down the recount so that Gore v. Bush would be decided by the Reactionary Heavy SCOTUS. Which dutifully handed the Presidency to the Worst Man to ever hold the office.

Of course, in the alternate US where the winner of the 2000 Presidential election, Al Gore, took office September 11th would have led to an immediate call for Impeachment and a Right-Wing Military Coup attempt led by Lt. General William Boykin to overthrown President Gore would follow.

Right-Wing fanatics are super mad that Ken Cuccinelli lost to Terry McAuliffe in Virginia. It can't be because of the reprehensible beliefs which Cuccinelli and his choice for Lt. Governor espoused.

No no! It's because Hillary Clinton got a "Fake Libertarian" onto the ballot who siphoned votes away from Cuccinelli and stole the election.

First off, Libertarianism was founded to dupe working class white people into voting against their interests. In 1972 the term "Libertarian" barely won the nod as title of the Party over "New Liberal Party".

In 1980 David H. Koch, of the Koch Brothers, was the Libertarian VP nominee. The party received 1% of the Nationwide vote.

Since, then Libertarians have worked hard to reinvent themselves to be palatable to left-wingers. But, Libertarian is just a scam term Ultra Reactionary's use to dupe middle class people to vote to enslave themselves into Corporate Bondage and Wage Slavery.

Now, any Libertarian who espouses the I vote Libertarian because I want to be left alone! There's No such thing as a Free Lunch! The principle of Zero-Aggression! Ron Paul!!! is either woefully misinformed or a right-wing liar.

Ron Paul has no problem with the Government oppressing you. He just wants the Power of Oppression to be vested in the Hands of the States instead of the Federal Government. And Oppression was exactly what Ken Cuccinelli promised.

Ken Cuccinelli, whom Ron Paul not only endorsed but campaigned for, asserted as Attorney General that the 2003 SCOTUS decision Lawrence v. Texas did apply to Virginia. He attempted to get Sodomy Laws reapplied to the State and wanted to arrest Men and Women who engaged in Sexual acts he deemed abnormal. Demanding that local Law Enforcement officers invade peoples' homes and conduct wide-ranging inspections into their sexual mores.

Cuccinelli also declared his administration would reduce Virginia Women to broodmare status and considered any Federal law which helped to provide health care to women to be illegal and unconstitutional.

But, of course, that's not a problem for Libertarians, who are overwhelmingly young white males, who could care less about women's issues and declare themselves Libertarians as an expression of the fury that White Male Privilege no longer holds Supremacy in America.

How's your principle of Zero Aggression going to hold up when David Koch dumps 4000 tons of Petcoke next to your house one day? Who will you turn to?

And therein lies the whole tale of Libertarianism. The Young White (Protestant) Males can not envision a day when the Corporate Plutocracy treats them the same way it treats minorities and women.

A Republican or Right-Wingers cry for "Civility"

are actually Demands that liberals censor themselves. Don't. When a Republican lap dog of the Rich or unhinged Right-Wing troll demands tolerance it's a trick to reframe the discussion or debate under their terms.

After President Obama's press conference yesterday, in which he perfectly laid out the Republican Shutdown goals and causes (i.e. it's an attempted Coup), Republican Representative Luke Messer took to MSNBC to whine, "The President talked about civility but he used the term hijack..."

Boo hoo hoo hoo the President is saying mean things about Republicans. Waaaaaah! How can anyone believe Republicans are super tough hard-charging patriots when words by that scary man in the White House make them cry?

But, what's really going on is a technique that the Right learned under the Mastery of the King Rat Fucker Lee Atwater and shaped by Conseravtive Icons Jack Abramoff, Ralph Reed, and Grover Norquist in the early 1980's.

During Abramoff's and Norquist's leadership of the College Republicans they and their trollish minions advised CR chapters to test the boundaries of liberalism by, 
Form a "Beastiality Club" or "Straight People's Alliance". Charter the club and apply for student activity money. If the gays are able to obtain funds, you should be able to. If the student government refuses to give you money, hold a press conference and attack them for being sexists and discriminatory. Complain to the Dean's office. Threaten a law suit. - College Republican Technology Manual early 1980's as reported by Thomas Frank in The Wrecking Crew
From Jack Abramoff, Grover Norquist, Karl Rove and Ralph Reed and their legions of right-wing college punks in the 1980's the modern Tea Party fanatics, the James O'Keefe's of today, learned to always chuckle, 'Oh I thought Liberals were supposed to be tolerant" in order to reframe the debate or steer it away from the topic at hand.

First, the ghost of Karl Popper should appear and say, In the name of tolerance, I claim the Right not to tolerate the intolerant, and hit the Tea Party fanatic in the Head with a Hammer.

Second, don't get sucked into their bullshit. When a Right-Winger proclaims victory by saying 'Liberals resort to name-calling when they are losing the argument" it's actual a Tell and Pre-Attack Que. The Conservative is telling you he doesn't have an argument and he's setting up his attack, You have to be tolerant or I win. You have to absorb my insults calmly or I win. You can't call me a racist or a liar or I win. 

As Father Michael Pfleger said yesterday, “They’d rather see America fail than Obama succeed.” Call this Republican Shutdown what it really is; An attempted coup d'état and a cold Civil War.

Update:
While the Right is working to destroy President Obama it should always be remembered that this Shutdown and Coup attempt are just battles in the Long War the vicious right have been waging upon Us. Their final solution is the complete negation of the Progressive Era and the creation of the Ultra-Reactionary Neo-Feudalist Dream State;
The common vision: an America in which the rich will be taxed at the same rates as the poor, where capital is freed from government constraints, where government services are turned over to the free market, where the minimum wage is repealed, unions are made irrelevant, and law-abiding citizens can pack handguns in every state and town. "My ideal citizen is the self-employed, homeschooling, IRA-owning guy with a concealed-carry permit,"said Grover Norquist. "Because that person doesn't need the goddamn government for anything."

Republicans attempting a Coup d'État

For the second time in 13 years, the Republican Party is attempting to thwart the will of the majority of Americans and enforce an Undemocratic Government which they control upon the US.

Unlike 2000 when the Republicans had a Stooge President installed via the decree of five SC Justices, this Coup involves the Party attempting to enact the Austerity Budget which serves the interests of the Wealthy Elite while pandering to the bigoted Right-Wing base of conservative dupes.

As with the Sequestration, the Republican Plan is to defund elements of the Government which they do not like or which aid those whom they do not represent (children, women, the poor, the Working Class) while selectively transferring Hundreds of Billions of dollars into the hands of the Super Rich.

But, unlike Sequestration the Democratic Party has not agreed to the Republicans duplicitous maneuvers of funding a select few slivers of the Government.

Additionally, the Shutdown has a chance of running into the Debt Ceiling and becoming a bigger problem. Or does it?
"Most budget agreements in the past have always involved debt limit increases. We think that's the forcing mechanism, just like the Budget Control Act that President Obama signed before." Representative P90X Ryan.
As Ryan's admission and other revelations have shown us, it appears the Republican Party had no intention of dealing fairly with the President, the Democratic Party or the American People. Nor has the Modern GOP ever had any intention of working for the American people.

What they have planned ever since losing the 2012 Presidential Election and garnering 1.5 million fewer votes for the House of Representatives was to install the Ultra-Reactionary Budget of the 1% and bring the Nation to it's knees in order to install a Neo-Feudalist State.

Under a "President" Romney, America would have been broken under the Paul Ryan's Work You to Death Budget, but having failed to win an election (despite Voter Suppression efforts in several swing states) Republicans are attempting a Coup. Election results be damned.

The Government Shutdown is a misnomer, many parts of the Government are still being funded, but parts of the Government that Republicans hate, the furloughed Government Workers who earn a decent wage and the EPA for instance, are feeling the crunch.
"You want my opinion? This is President Obama’s shutdown. He is responsible for shutting this thing down. No, I don’t think they should get their back pay, frankly, I really don’t. I’m sick and tired of a massive, bloated federal bureaucracy living on our backs, and taking money out of us, a lot more money than most of us earn in the private sector, then getting a furlough, and then getting their money back at the end of it. Sorry, I’m not for that. I want to punish these people. - Stuart Varney, Faux News resident Upper Class Tory Twit. 
"These People" whom Varney wants to punish are middle class Americans who work as Park Rangers being subjected to the scorn of the flabby, pasty chicken hawk Randy Neugebauer or as the Capitol Police potentially risking their lives to protect the very Republicans who have them working without pay. 

They aren't K Street lobbyists, they aren't Hedge Fund Vultures and that's the point. They aren't Rich. Actions speak louder than words so we didn't need Varney's verbal confirmation that a Republican Government is out to harm 99% of Americans, while blaming President Obama, and reduce us to Wage Slavery but there it is...

The Democratic Republic is about to go under. We have an Income Inequality and Wealth Gap heretofore unseen in American History.

And we have 300 Republican Fanatics who have undertaken a Crusade to purge Washington DC of all the Progressive gains of the 20th century and return us to their Idyllic Era of the Glided Age when Unrestrained Vulture Capitalism and Corporate Juggernauts roamed the Lands as Colossus, crushing all beneath their Iron Heel and greasing their gears with the blood of thousands.
