Brilliant idea
The Trump administration is systematically purging anyone who worked on the investigations into his criminal activities.
If that isn’t sufficient to trigger a significant response from the Senate all by itself, then they’re rather obviously part of the problem, and likely complicit in Trump’s current ongoing efforts to overthrow the US government and repace it with a plutocratic autocracy with himself as supreme ruler.
Speaking with host Alex Witt, Frank Figliuzzi, who served as assistant director for counterintelligence at the FBI, claimed there is a strong possibility that almost half of the department’s employees could be forced out, thereby putting the nation’s security at extreme risk.
Imagine you were a hostile foreign power and you wanted to take down your competition once and for all. You might seek out a power-hungry public figure who cared more about themselves than their country, and who could be easily manipulated, blackmailed if necessary (so you’d want someone seedy), and offer them a personal reward if they dismantled their country’s government and public institutions and sabotaged its alliances and trade partnerships. If your hostile foreign power was also a socially backwards and racist, you might encourage their own racism and prejudices to punish mostly liberal LGBTQ+ people and kick out or imprison the low-paid immigrants who help the country function. It would be terrible if something like that were to happen in real life and the people were just to allow it.
I’ve been deliberately avoiding addressing that whole aspect of it, since Trump and Musk are the obvious primary insurrectionists - the day-to-day leaders of this brazen attempt to overthrow the US government and install a plutocratic autocracy in its place.
But yes.
We know that because it out in the open. Under oath admissions of collusion is the best way to get people against these assholes though, and possibly get them in jail when that is convenient again.
Taco Supreme
got some news for ye bruh…
Or just, ya know, pick somone who isnt a fucking conspiracy nut hack instead of confirming Trumps moronic picks.
This guy was always a bastard. So of course Trump’s bootlickers love him.
It’s too late. There are no “takesie backsies”.
Senate urged to do any kind of governing whatsoever
“Urged”
I see no one has learned a goddamn fucking thing.
“Urged” I see no one has learned a goddamn fucking thing.
It was a former FBI official that (as you put it) “Urged” Senate.
That’s because he can’t do anything else. It is on us to join him and also put pressure on politicians, but looks like it is easier to just fart on a chair and swipe down the feed than do anything.
We are currently in a middle of a coup, and we really need to put a resistance: https://snyder.substack.com/p/the-logic-of-destruction
What is OP doing about it? Only one I see doing anything is Luigi.
I just hope all the good feds made an undeletable backup lol
*Fash Patel
The servile republican traitor filth will do no such thing.
This guy literally wrote a book about what he dubs “the executive branch deep state” including a list of high profile names he wants to target.
It’s all out in the open. Confirmation hearings are supposed to weed out people like him.
Edit: the way I previously worded my comment it might have been construed as me stating Patel was rightfully going after these people. Instead I meant to indicate that they rightfully resisted/investigated Trump.
“deep state”
That is really just a synonym for “democratic state”. Whenever someone attacks the “deep state”, they actually mean “democratic state”. Whenever you come across the phrase, “deep state”, just auto-correct it in your own mind to “democratic state” for crystal clarity.
Honestly, there’s nothing wrong with career bureaucrats // civil servants per se. ¿Do you want to swap out every geologist, accountant, teacher, interpreter, ranger, manager, safety inspector, lawyer, technician, secretary every 4 years? These people literally run the country and by extension allow society to continue. And they are part of the idea that power and expertise are spread amongst many people.
Is it fair to criticize individuals, agencies, institutions. Yes. Is there corruption, mismanagement, incompetence? All the time, happens for any sufficiently large enough organization.
But no need to spin this into some bonkers conspiracy theory.
Do you want to swap out every geologist, accountant, teacher, interpreter, ranger, manager, safety inspector, lawyer, technician, secretary every 4 years?
You would never ever want any of these people dependent on politics and politicians. That is exactly what caused this:
Hmm this section sounds familiar:
The persecution drove hundreds of directors, managers and workers – including the author – into exile and/or imprisonment. In their place, the government appointed political operators, lacking knowledge and experience in the oil sector, who provided unconditional support to Maduro’s policies but damaged the company’s operational capacities, bypassing all control or accountability mechanisms.
That’s essentially what Trump admin wants to do. Fire civil servants en masse, replace with loyalists (proficiency for the job is optional).Then if something is goes wrong, and it will, just blame it on DEI, Biden, wokeness or something.
Hmm this section sounds familiar:
There is another parallel between Venezuela and Traitorapist Trump. Like us and Nazi Germany, their whole mess happened because they allowed a failed coup leader to come to power who should have been disqualified from the start.
Rightfully how, exactly?
I’ve updated my initial comment.
