January 6th will be America's Second Independence Day

"We mustn't judge too harshly Will... It was his first time." - Hannibal Lecter

Many things required cleaning up after the January 6th Insurrection; from the broken glass in the Rotunda, to the shit-smeared walls throughout the hallways and offices, to the shattered trust in the peaceful transition of power in the World's foremost Democracy.

But, nothing required more work than for Republicans & Rightwingers to white-wash the video footage and images the American people saw that day with their own eyes.

January 6th was an Inflection Point.  The Republican Party had been steadily descending towards Authoritarianism and the denial of democracy and the repudiation of the Democratic Republic for decades with accelerating features from 2001-2021, but after the initial shock of that day wore off, Republicans fully embraced full-blown Fascism.

 There is no coming back from this for Republicans.  They have decided to Rule or Ruin.  But, to that end they still need to do Revisionist History and catapult the propaganda about January 6th, as they steadily erode confidence in the United States of America and set about conducting their next attempt to Overthrow the Government and replace it with a NeoConfederate style of governance dominated by fundamentalist white supremacy and predicated on the propositions of oppression, intolerance, and adulation of the rich.

To that end; Squeaker Kevin McCarthy gave video surveillance footage to Chief Propagandist Tucker Carlson to do what he does; craft a web of lies and convince conservatives the true villains of January 6th were not that raucous mob of criminals who, it should never be forgotten, did successfully delay the certification of the 2020 election but, those who investigated the crimes and underlying motivations of the Trump White House and Republicans and Rightwing provocateurs who set the events in motion.

Remember except for a few strokes of luck and some individually brave actions, there would have been numerous dead Democratic Congressmen and Senators in the Capitol on that day.  And make no mistake that was the plan by the Trump White House. 

But, while several Republican Senators have tepidly pushed back against Carlson's Revisionist History right now, the arc of history is set.  Arch Traitors in the GOP will never stop pushing lies around the attempted TrumPutsch and Auto-Golpe De'Estado planned and executed by the Trump White House and multiple members of the Republican Party inside and out the Federal Government.  Thus, Republicans & Rightwingers must and will completely support the Spirit of January 6th and the Lies of a Rigged and Stolen 2020 Election while castigating a few individuals as bad apples.  

By the end of the decade Republicans will have convinced themselves and their mob of domestic terrorists that Jan6th stands with July 4th as the Days of Independence.

Republicans want Trains to run on time, so they can ship you to Death Camps

Apparently, Republicans have decided their decades long agenda of slashing government regulation and rules designed to curtail negligent business from cutting corners and conducting their businesses unsafely is the fault of President Joe Biden.  Republicans can do this while they literally work to create the conditions for future incidents like this.

I guess Republicans have decided to dust off the old playbook of blaming everything on a Democratic President even and especially things they are responsible for.  This time its' the Norfolk Suffolk train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio which Republicans Blame Biden for, similar to how the blamed Barack for the Deepwater Horizon oil rig explosion in 2010.

with a Death to America Rally today
Of course, all of this lays at the feet of the Republican agenda of strangling the regulation of big business while companies like this are more than willing to slash safety protocols because they know the cost of cleaning up any damage will, most likely, be borne by the American taxpayer.  Privatize the Profits and Socialize the Losses remains a key component of business attraction to Republican politicians.

For years, we've witnessed Republican legislatures and executives undermine, neuter, and eliminate regulations and then when a disaster hits, they run to the loving arms of Faux News to blame Democrats.

Think the Texas Power Grid failure, the odious Ted Cruz and doddering Greg Abbott blamed Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and the Green New Deal.  

Do you remember in 2015 when the EPA investigated and attempted to clean up abandoned mines in Colorado and were overwhelmed by the negligent malefeacance of the companies who just up and abandoned the toxic waste products?  So that the Animas River was turned into an orange sludge from millions of gallons of waste which spilled into it?  Hey, that business in America let someone else clean up your mess and if they fuck it up well that's on them!

Voting for Republican deregulation vividly
demonstrated in Ohio.

Just think back to the election of 2020 when Rightwingers everywhere were screaming, literally screaming, that Joe Brandon was declaring War on American Energy by trying to limit fucking fossil fuels.

Of course, this current deregulation disaster in Ohio has allowed the worst of the rightwing on-line provocateurs like small faced Charlie Kirk and King Bigot Fucker Carlson to declare this was secretly an attack on White People by President Biden and VP Kamala Harris.

It’s very simple. It’s because the war on white people continues. Why would you care for the white working-class voters in eastern Ohio? - Charlie Kirk

This is the other plank of the Republican game plan of always blaming Democratic Presidents for Republican malfeasance; they also cry and moan and bitch non-stop, all day, everyday in the hopes the electorate will give in to their tantrum and let them have control of the government.  This worked very well on my Generation X slacker cohorts in 2000 but is having less effect on the Milleninals and Zoomers who've learned to talk trash back to the Twitter trolls and rightwing propagandists and haven't been brain-washed by the BothSides are the same and other rhetorical bullshit rightwingers used on Gen-X and the Boomers to such effect.  It certainly worked on White people in Ohio, who voted for Trump for voted for do-nothing Mike DeWine for Governor and know-nothing V.D. Vance for Senator.  But, now that the white people of Ohio's votes for Republicans and deregulation are coming back to destroy them and their communities it's time to shift the blame.

The only reason Republicans want the trains to run on time and not derail is because they are planning on using them the same way their ideological ancestors in Germany did; to round-up the people the Republicans hate and send them to death camps.

If Republicans take control of the US Government they will Imprison or Kill LGBTQ persons

 All your Hoohahs are being to us!
As well as many other people, deemed insufficiently MAGA.

No, not hyperbole.  

In Ohio, House State Republicans passed a law HB 151, empowering conservatives to inspect the genitals of any little girl they deem fit to inspect.

In Idaho yesterday, Police interdicted and arrested 31 white power "Patriot Front" paramilitary terrorists who apparently planned to attack and beat people in a Pride Parade.

"It is clear to us, based on the gear the individuals had with them ... along with paperwork that we seized from them, that they came to riot downtown," Coeur d'Alene Police Chief Lee White said Saturday at a press conference.

Perhaps, they didn't coordinate in time with the Kootenai Sheriff Bob Norris to inform them of their intentions and didn't know that the Chief of Police is not under the County Sheriff system?

I am 100% certain that conservative rhetoric on-line is angry about Antifa or BLM and accuses the Couer d'Alene Police of ignoring leftist destruction of the Pacific Northwest.  I've heard from Officers I work with that Portland and Seattle where literally burned to the ground and the media ignored thousands of murders committed by Antifa.

Besides Every Accusation Is A Confession (EAIAC), the conservative hyper focus on "Grooming" and violence underscores the fact that Republicans by and large are either on board with using political violence to control the United States or willing to turn a blind eye to it.  And the grooming charge, is just covering for the Republican plan to empower themselves to detain any woman they wish and subject her to all sorts of gross violations.

Just as they've done before with fear of black people, fear of gay marriage, fear of Transpersons is the strategy Republicans have adopted to scare normies into backing the advance of Fascism. 

Note, how deftly and how coordinated Reactionary propagandists claimed The Uvalde murderer was a Transperson and how even today disgusting pukes like Candace Owens continue to claim the killer was Trans.

Certainly everyone says this upcoming election is the most important in our lifetimes, this isn't actually true in 2022, as 2016 was the most important (as evidenced by the 3 Supreme Injustices appointed by Traitor Trump) and 2020 gave us a respite from the advance of Fascism but, what we're looking at in 2022 is the GOP laying the groundwork to steal the 2024 Presidential Election, the ensconcing of Anti-Trans Laws, the complete White-washing of US history,  a Federal Ban on Abortion, and the Supreme Six Injustices knocking down rights for Gay people, contraception, freedom of travel for women, while striking down of Griswold v. CT, Loving v. Virginia, and Lawrence v. Texas.

And the Supreme Six Injustices are also busy ensuring that Police Officers, in this case the scurrilous Border Patrol, be free to violate the 4th Amendment, free from criticism, and free to abuse because as the Couer d'Arlene Police show the Republicans know they need a Special Secret Police, a Trumpstazi or Trumpstapo as it were, to work with the Rightwing Paramilitary Terrorists and trample the American people.
