Chris Tigani, The Bidens, And The Delaware Way. Read it, critically. Tigani portrays himself as the victim. Yes, the Bidens are part of ‘The Delaware Way’. As is every Delawarean in this article, including Norman Veasey, who could have made a difference, but chose to give the casually-corrupt politicos a pass.
Fascism Comes To American Cities, And The Response Is…Muted. Seriously, why isn’t everyone screaming from the rooftops? Unidentified federal interlopers taking people off the streets of this country. THIS IS NEITHER NORMAL NOR ACCEPTABLE. Except…to accept it normalizes it. I KNOW there’s a shitload of other Trump feints facing us, but we can’t countenance fascism:
DHS derives its authority to deploy in Portland — and presumably New York — from an executive order Trump signed last month. That order, offered in response to incidents in which protests led to vandalism of government buildings or the toppling of public monuments, claimed that “Anarchists and left-wing extremists have sought to advance a fringe ideology that paints the United States of America as fundamentally unjust and have sought to impose that ideology on Americans through violence and mob intimidation.”
“They have led riots in the streets, burned police vehicles, killed and assaulted government officers as well as business owners defending their property, and even seized an area within one city where law and order gave way to anarchy,” the order read.
In response, DHS and other federal officials were ordered to leverage a patchwork of laws aimed at protecting government buildings, churches and memorials to establish a parallel police presence in targeted cities.
Portland Is Just The Beginning. This is Trump’s ‘wag-the-dog’. Declare war on cities run by Democratic mayors. BTW, there are now more protesters in Portland than ever. Senior citizens, people in wheelchairs. Parents of some of the young protesters.
About That Rethug National Convention…Jacksonville’s sheriff, a Republican, says it just can’t happen.
Biden Warns Russia Against Election Interference. Maybe this will deter Putin since Biden appears likely to win. Looks like Sen. Ron Johnson is already disseminating Russian propaganda to go after Biden. BTW, this article is a must-read. You will learn a lot.
Anti-Feminist Lawyer Attacked Judge’s Family. This brought back yet another memory from my Leg Hall days. Tom Sharp and, I think Bruce Ennis, consistently pushed for Family Court ‘reforms’ because men were being ‘mistreated’ by the Court. Yep, they were leaders of the ‘men’s rights’ movement. Hey, at least this asshole is dead.
Elsmere Cop Breaks Hand Beating The Shit Out Of Suspect. Suspect ‘resisted arrest’. Which is throwing raw meat at a starving cop.
Speaking of broken hands, we need to end with this view of Trump’s America.
What do you want to talk about?
Gotta love Politico’s Bullshit Clickbait headline.
Headline: ISSUES!
Body: No issues.
That’s why I advised ‘Read, critically’. For people not familiar with the Delaware Way, it’s a good introduction to the Delaware Way.
Illegal bundling of campaign contributions? How quaint.
They’ve got themselves a very shaky source there. Chris Tigani is, how shall we say, not the guy I’d trust to disseminate information accurately.
Yep. Forever the victim.
Not just that. I’m trying to avoid the expression “nuttier than a squirrel turd.”
Unmarked commandos should be arrested by municipal police. Deputize protesters if necessary.
You know who totally supports this move? The police unions:

Then the unmarked commandos should be followed home and doxxed. Someone should develop an app to track their real-time location in protest areas. Any attempted assaults or abductions by unmarked thugs should be swarmed.
this is 100% a way to get a lot of people killed. these fucks are horny for live ammo.
Time to decertify police unions. If a RepubliCON like Scott Walker can do it, any democratic led state ought to be doing the same thing!
You are just now noticing the fascism? Really? Where were you in the 80’s when we started militarizing local police?
El Somnambulo’s in-depth kick-ass article is the Cat’s Meo. Love it and keep it coming. That national memo on Sen Ron Johnson is a true piss cutter. Keep it up with the national reports. The Villages in Florida (largest Senior Community) in America is infected and I don’t see how the Republicans can make any play to keep FLA in the GOP colum. Florida is lost and they can’t win the presidentcy and that brings us back to the happenings in Oregon. They think they can test market this take-over of Democratic cities to steal elections. No can do.
Fascism and an authoritarian state are as mothers milk unto the Republicans, hard to believe the idiots are pushing the truly pathetic “Obamagate” game and the eternally pathetic “Deepstate” stupidity. The real fun comes in November when regardless of the returns Trump will challenge the election and the Republicans will fall in line and back him. To the barricades my brothers? Count me in as ever. Stan…. New photo required bro.
