Democracy happening right now!! Your brownshirts needed pardons

Brown Shirts is good but Red Hat is also good.

They are one in the same.

Their fawning loyalty to their fuhrer and their willingness to celebrate his anti democratic tendencies, totalitarian rhetoric, jingoism, and bigotry made that clear.

And they really love political retribution and political purges.

Incoming National Security Advisor Mike Waltz told Breitbart News exclusively that every intelligence official from the various departments and agencies across the federal government currently detailed to the National Security Council (NSC) at the White House under outgoing President Joe Biden will be expected to vacate the premises by 12:01 p.m. Eastern on Inauguration Day when President-elect Donald Trump is inaugurated again.
Waltz, in a phone interview earlier this week, told Breitbart News that he is making sure everyone understands that it’s “crystal clear what the agenda is.”
“Everybody is going to resign at 12:01 on January 20,” Waltz said. “We’re working through our process to get everybody their clearances and through the transition process now. Our folks know who we want out in the agencies, we’re putting those requests in, and in terms of the detailees they’re all going to go back.”



Commentary:
Unlike the 2017 administration, Waltz will work to revoke the security clearances for people like Anthony Blinken, Jake Sullivan and John Brennan immediately. There’s zero reason for people not employed by the federal government to keep their security clearances, and people like this from the Obama administration used their security clearances to damage Trump once he was in office.
Making sure to remove their security clearances so they can't become security "experts" for the Quisling media or "consult" for big bucks. If any of these lying scumbags are still employed or "consultants" to the government - FIRE them ALL and take away their security clearances too.
One of the first jobs will be to remove the security clearances from many of the former heads of various departments and their minions! Especially Brennan, Clapper and the other individuals who conspired amd signed off on Hunter’s Laptop!
Trump has learned a lot in his first 4 years and has had another 4 years to prepare.
I don't think Democrats are prepared for what is going to know what hit them.

'Deep State"
People who say goofy things like that also believe the California wildfires are started by Jewish Space Lasers.
What`s going to hit the Democrats?

The true deep state is the right political body and always has been and its manifesto is centralized in the Heritage Foundation handbook, Mandate for Leadership, The Conservative Promise (Republican Party or Political Right). The more people deflect from this manifesto and its contents and the movement it entails the more I am sure the right is the true Deep State. The following is an outline for lessons for those interested.:

Project 2025, orchestrated by the Heritage Foundation, serves as a stark embodiment of authoritarian ambition masquerading as reform. Under the guise of combating the so-called "Deep State," this initiative deploys a calculated and sinister tactic: accusing its opponents of the very actions it seeks to undertake. This strategy, drawn directly from authoritarian playbooks, including those of Nazi Germany, is a masterstroke of psychological manipulation and narrative control. It is the true "Deep State" of right-wing politics cloaking itself in the language of freedom while orchestrating a systematic dismantling of democracy.

The Reverse Condemnation Playbook

One of the hallmark strategies of authoritarian regimes is to accuse their opponents of the very schemes they are executing. This technique, known as reverse condemnation, is rooted in deflection and projection. By accusing others of authoritarianism, conspiracies, or corruption, the perpetrator not only muddies the waters of accountability but also garners preemptive justification for their own actions.

The Nazis employed this tactic with chilling precision, painting Jews, socialists, and dissenters as threats to German unity and democracy while they systematically eroded democratic institutions. This approach served to create an "enemy within," a fabricated menace that justified the Nazis' authoritarian overreach. Similarly, Project 2025 weaponizes the term "Deep State," casting career civil servants, independent regulators, and nonpartisan institutions as villains obstructing the will of the people.

How the Right Has Become the True 'Deep State'

The right-wing movement spearheaded by Project 2025 exemplifies the very definition of a "Deep State." Traditionally, the term refers to an entrenched network of actors who operate behind the scenes to manipulate government policy and consolidate power. Under this definition, Project 2025’s blueprint is a textbook example of such behavior:

Subverting Democratic Norms: The plan seeks to replace nonpartisan civil servants with ideological loyalists, ensuring that key positions in federal agencies are filled by individuals who prioritize partisan goals over public service.

Consolidating Power: By aiming to centralize authority within the executive branch and dismantle independent agencies, the initiative eliminates checks and balances fundamental to democratic governance.

Covert Indoctrination: Training programs such as the Presidential Administration Academy prepare appointees not as stewards of public trust but as instruments of a political agenda, enforcing conformity and suppressing dissent.

Narrative Control: Just as authoritarian regimes manipulate public discourse, Project 2025 seeks to dominate narratives by labeling opponents as conspirators or obstacles to progress, thereby stifling genuine debate.

Deflection as a Weapon

The genius of this reverse condemnation tactic lies in its ability to deflect scrutiny. By constantly accusing others of being a "Deep State," right-wing operatives divert attention from their own actions, muddying the discourse and making it harder for the public to discern truth from propaganda. It is a preemptive strike, framing criticism of their authoritarian tendencies as mere "partisan attacks" or the whining of a liberal elite.

This tactic also serves a more insidious purpose: sowing distrust in democratic institutions. If the public comes to see the judiciary, regulatory agencies, or even law enforcement as tools of a mythical "Deep State," these institutions lose their legitimacy, paving the way for their replacement with partisan entities loyal to the regime.

The Nazi Playbook in Action

Project 2025’s approach eerily mirrors the propaganda techniques of Nazi Germany, where accusations of disloyalty and conspiracy were leveled at Jews, communists, and other minorities to justify draconian measures. The Nazis accused their enemies of plotting to undermine the state while they themselves orchestrated the dismantling of Germany's democratic Weimar Republic. By the time the true nature of their agenda became clear, it was too late for meaningful resistance.

Similarly, Project 2025 cloaks itself in the rhetoric of "draining the swamp" and "fighting the Deep State," all while laying the groundwork for a government that serves a narrow ideological elite. The irony is profound: the very people decrying a "Deep State" are actively creating one, but under their control.

Exposing the Right-Wing 'Deep State'

True patriots—those who value democracy, equality, and the rule of law—must expose and counter this dangerous strategy. The key lies in unmasking the false narratives perpetuated by Project 2025 and emphasizing the following truths:

Public Servants Are Not the Enemy: Career civil servants and independent regulators are essential to a functioning democracy. Their role is to implement laws and policies impartially, not to serve any political agenda.

Centralization Is the Real Threat: Project 2025’s proposals to consolidate power in the executive branch and dismantle agencies are antithetical to the decentralized, balanced governance envisioned by the Constitution.

Indoctrination Undermines Freedom: Training programs that enforce ideological loyalty erode the independence and critical thinking necessary for good governance.

Projection Is a Warning Sign: When a political movement accuses its opponents of authoritarianism while dismantling democratic norms, it is a signal of dangerous intent.

In conclusion, fact: The "Deep State" is the Republican Party and Maga and the political right.

What a load of hooey.

More gasbaggery from the leftards.

You sound suspiciously like another poster who used to frequent this board.

one of the biggest differences between this crowd and their Guilded Age predecessors is that the real power remained in the background in the past.

JP Morgan may have all but installed McKinley in office, but he did not show up at the Inaugurztion or parade for the media, the way Musk and the billionaires who have pid for Trump do.

Your remarks about the very obvious parallels between the rise of Nazi Germany and Trump are spot on.

Our brown skinned people are playing the part of the Jews. I`ve never heard anyone say they voted for Trump because they like his plans for America`s healthcare, affordable college or any other of the things that really matter. They want to make America white again, and the sheets and hoods are now red hats.

“There’s zero reason for people not employed by the federal government to keep their security clearances,”

Actually, contrary to your uninformed claim, retaining security clearances after government service is quite common. And it usually is because many former federal officials and military officers continue to work with government, although not in government directly.

But your post reeks of celebrating political purges and personal retribution.

I think everyone sees what is coming. Will Trump’s personal grievances define his second term?

He seems to be going right there on day one.

A weak, petty little man with a lot of power.

If you can't trust people ..what good are they. Send em on down the road
