Stansbury: These guys are trying to create a pretext for the deployment of the military against American citizens. And part of how they're trying to do that is by labeling them terrorists…

You can’t trust the American Fascist Party to honor the agreements that they make to open the government.

This is an emergency. In a month, health premiums are going to go up by 75%, ruining families' lives. What's happening in Chicago, where people's rights are being obliterated, is an emergency. What the FCC is doing - censoring our political speech - is an emergency.

If the government reopens than little fake Christian Mikey will be forced to vote on the release of the Epstein files, not going to happen anytime soon.
It’s been apparent for some time that this is not going away and they are very concerned about it.

How often does Gunther leave his moms basement? Inquiring minds want to know.

My father fought in WW2. I’m second generation anti fascist and my sons are third generation anti fascist. Some day when I have grandkids I will sit down and talk with them and a fourth generation of anti fascists will be a reality.
Democracy will survive this, we don’t bend the knee to fascism.

Why hasn’t this Nazi been indicted?
Never mind, criminals protect each other.

It can’t be just locker room talk if you’ve never been in a locker room.

Yesterday was the Q3 FEC deadline. That means we found out how much money my opponents raised and who donated to them.

So how did we do? Well…

Justice will prevail. The people giving the orders will do prison time and those that follow these orders will be held accountable.

I’m late 60’s and retired. She needs to go home sit on the couch relax and read books.
This time in our history needs young people to carry on the fight for democracy. If she still wants to be involved she can do some fundraising for other candidates.

His essay was published in 1944 in the New York Magazine. It's like he's speaking about what is happening now.

Some of the brightest former CIA, FBI, and NSA minds are about to deliver a blunt assessment of the threat we face. I’ve had Steven Cash (He was awarded the CIA’s Medal of Merit for his work on a sensitive project) @steadystatevets.bsky.social on my podcast...he’s the real deal. Stay tuned.

The Steady State @steadystatevets.bsky.social · 1d

Tomorrow, we release the Steady State’s assessment of American democracy—written by former national security officials using the same tools once used to evaluate authoritarian regimes abroad. The conclusion is clear: We are facing an existential threat of growing autocracy here in the US.
