Former President Donald Trump is seeking a dangerous agenda that could uproot American democracy, warned columnist Scot Lehigh in the Boston Globe on Tuesday.
This comes amid a broader uproar over Trump's reported plans for a second term, including purging the civil service and replacing it with loyalists — with the Heritage Foundation helping him to recruit his new footsoldiers and build a Christian nationalist blueprint for reshaping the government — and as he amps up dehumanizing rhetoric, describing left-wing opponents as "vermin" to be rooted out in a Veterans Day speech.
"Former president Donald Trump has crossed a red line into championing what we’d recognize as full-flung fascism if it came from the mouth of a foreign leader," wrote Lehigh. "It demonstrates just how inured we’ve become to Trump’s despicable despotic rhetoric that he’s not ostracized or treated like a renegade to the US Constitution and American democracy. Instead, he remains the front-runner for the Republican presidential nomination. In that role, he obviously feels comfortable espousing views that go well beyond anything he said in his 2016 or 2020 campaigns."

It's really funny when the weaponized justice department goes after people praying in front of abortion clinics and transgender weirdness in books or drag queen storybook hour. The Justice Department told the US Marshalls to 'stand down' on harassing the Supreme Court Justices. President Biden has instructed his Justice Department to overlook 18 U.S.C. 1503 catering to the leftist angry mob but busting Christians who pray to save a life.
Once they are adults, They can be as weird as they want.
President Biden says they are HIS kids, not our kids. That is so foxtrot in the head!

Yeah, its as if tolerating insubordinate employees, violating the First Amendment by forcing social media platforms to delete thoughts the government doesn't like, violating First Amendment activities like worshipping in Church, violating Second Amendment rights by rule making instead of changing laws, and very Selective prosecutorial actions are all in the progressive wheelhouse. Oh wait, they are.
Now the newest one is going after conservatives and their security clearances because they refused to wear a face diaper, or because of military service affiliation or their political beliefs. Yeah, there's zero fascism on the progressive side.

I think Democrats have watched too much for V for vendetta on TV And they think the handmaid's tail is real threat.
