The GOP agenda for the next few years.

[hadit]

A Trump cronie was just put on the board of Meta, so Trump now has a guy on the inside for regular reports. Bezos is stopping anything unkind to be said.

The press is mostly intimidated into the fetal position, and government agencies will soon be heavily by those who have sworn allegiance to the fuhrer. Looks like they'll be going after judges who don't toe the line. The FBI will be made subservient. Anyone who can hold Trump accountable will be gone or controlled.

In America.

His enablers and his followers are now fully exposed, and we're going to find out how close this country can get to fascism.

Yet there was no problem when Meta admitted to colluding with Quid Pro Joe's administration over what speech to censor?

Its just a few days until maga takes control of the US and it is time to consider what the worst case scenarios might be.
Like all authoritarian regimes they have already identified their scapegoats and it is clearly going to be a tough 2 years for migrants and the LGBT community.
I understand that there are already migrant camps set up to deport people to somewhere. I can see that process going on until it upsets trumps paymasters and interferes with their ability to exploit workers.
It will also affect the US economy in a negative fashion as economic activity will drop.
So I think that performative brutality will dwindle as America realises that immigration underpins the US.
The real problem faces the gay/trans community. I was watching a programme about the holocaust last night and it didnt start with gas chambers. It started with 100s of irritating laws designed to impact Jewish citizens.
In effect the GOP have started that process at state level where the craziest representatives work. so hard to spread misery.
This is likely to now be replicated at federal level where they can victimise people on a grander scale.
Nancy Mace and the Rev Johnson has given us a taste of that with their Capitol toilets ban.. They will continue with this performative cruelty with the aim of eliminating gay people by the end of the term. This is how nazi authoritarian regimes work.
Gays out of the army , women in the kitchen, these are the moronic policies these wierdos voted for.
We will see more and more laws passed that restrict freedom and then criminalise any behaviour they publicly disapprove of. Of course privately they are well up for a bit of sodomy the same as most people.
Its a bleak prospect for the US. I do not think that Americans are full blown bigots but they notice their bank balance which is more important than their bible.
As the negative effects of trumps crazy economics start to hit pockets there will be an upswing of resistance that will lead to the GOPs crash in 2026.

America can then rebuild after the maga disaster..

Those are simply distractions imho.....the immigrant deportation will start slowly with criminals or gangsters again in my opinion....

Same with the anti gay, trans, agenda to keep followers and opposition tied up in knots and argument, same with this Greenland and Panama canal issue....distraction while no media is focused on Trump's agenda on making his billionaire buddies richer with more tax cuts, and using our federal monies to buy Crypto currency....all paybacks for them donating to him.... crypto is the worst of worse! Hope the Trumpers in congress do not go along with that garbage.... No one should agree to the scheduled crypto purchases!!!! Dear Lord!!!

Wasn't that under the Trump administration where this began....the coordination between Trump's govt and social media?

I hope so. But you will never get rich backing republicans to defy authority.

The charts which show a GDP LOSS are paywall protected. (It's an entire industry currently) for all statistics surrounding employment data, GDP and other metrics that once were accurate coming from the Government.

Growing less than another country does not mean GDP loss.

You're not referring to Shadowstats, are you?

I am unfamiliar with that name....but I looked and found a whole list of companies providing more accurate information than the Government does. But they all charge fees for content.

And that's the problem isn't it?

Nobody believes anything coming out of DC.

Of the people
By the people
And especially....
FOR the people.

I'd like to see documentation that it began back then. All I know at this point is they admitted to colluding with the Quid Pro Joe admin.

Really? I thought Republicans were all like, "Let's overthrow the government with no weapons by yelling and throwing things!", and stuff.

My biggest fear is that once a tyrant's policies fail, they create imaginary enemies out of ordinary people and blame them for undermining the society.

They'd rather create scapegoats then admit that their policies were ludicrous.

Eventually, when all else fails, they will eat their own.

Expect a new dark age!

What the dumbasses do not realize is that the only thing that gives crypto currencies any value is that the encryption prevents government from monitoring transactions.

But what they also do not know is that the U.S. & Chinese governments CAN decrypt these transactions.

Once the MAGA idiots destroy the U.S. dollar, crypto currencies will become the world's currency reserve.

Then the Chinese will publicly decrypt all transactions, rendering crypto currencies worthless.

The Chinese Yuan will become the world's currency reserve and China the world's dominant super power forever.

Motr like his globalist elite backers. They invested a lot in trump Now they want payback.

If their "more accurate" information said our GDP shrank since 2002, they're wrong.
But if they can get people to pay for that "info", good for them.

No one wants to hold Yuan, not even the Chinese.

Not what I intended....in the past 4 years our GDP has shrunk....it was growing before. Just not as much as BRICS which grew mostly by acquisition of new GDPs being added. (And a lot of lying)

Brazil has a Yo-yo type GDP and is dependent upon China for mining. They also grow a ton of agricultural products like corn, wheat, cotton, rice, and sugar which also produces ethanol.

Which is part of the discussion of why China is all over the Panama Canal. Brazil's ocean ports are East in the Atlantic which is why they use the Canal extensively for goods.

We control the Canal and deny China the use of it their economy will be destroyed.

Based on what?

Maybe damaged, hardly destroyed.

If both the U.S. dollar and crypto currencies die, what else could take their place?

The ruble?

China is extremely stable and an economic giant.

I expect you'll be running the guillotines!

Some would say overturning Roe v Wade is a pretty big accomplishment.

Not really. It did nothing about abortions.
