It says
"Legal experts predict Comey will be acquitted – the evidence is weak and the political interference is blatant."

Won't the pending Trump dictatorship just rewrite the law?

Isn't the purpose of the dictatorship a counter-revolution to overthrow the Constitution in fact but not name?

MUST WATCH.

It is not just that Trump says he will invoke the Insurrection Act to stop "Governors that are holding us up, Courts that are holding us up"

... but the NewsMax host asks

"The Insurrection Act? Is this a way to kind of get AROUND this opposition?"

i.e. the pretext is fraudulent.

In the November 1932 Reichstag elections the Nazi (NSDAP) vote fell by 2 million from the July 1932 election (37% to 32%)

The combined vote for the social democrats (SPD) and communists (KPD) rose from 36% to 37%

The NSDAP was in crisis. Hitler was suicidal. Many said the fascist threat had passed

Trump is the front man. The real demons are in the back room giving him instructions on how to sell the dictatorship they are planning.

The DANGER cannot be underestimated. But workers, students and youth need to understand why this is happening so they can act.

NON-ZERO-SUM GAMES ~ a world-help site ~

I looked at your website nonzerosum.games

What is the game theory analysis of dictatorship and fascism?

If a propertied class can keep its wealth by deceit, force, violence and terror, why would it ever cooperate except on a game rigged against others who thus need to break the game to "win"?

at 13:19 Chlöe Swarbrick says "... if we are to arrest this growing wealth inequality ... it's really important for people to understand that poverty doesn't come from nowhere. ..."

Who is "we"? She admits there are "vested" interests who oppose a wealth tax.

Neither can say "capitalist class".

Yes. Not just in the UK.

But why?

And what should we do about it?

Yes.

They would never call it a "Controlled Thought Zone"

IMHO it should say

AT THE TOP
"Orwellian Zone Ahead*"

Listen to AOC say Trump has an "authoritarian style of governance".

Just "style"?

She says "Donald Trump is insulting the servicemen of this country by putting them on these silly tasks [of occupying U.S. cities]".

Republicans push series of harsh “anti-crime” laws with Democratic Party support following Trump’s occupation of Washington D.C.

Shouldn't the meme say

"Just a reminder Congress could put a halt to this Presidency right now ... but they don't want to."

Is that even true? The Constitution is under attack.

What would happen if Congress tried, esp. given the military occupation of D.C.?
