The number one domestic terror threat in America remains white supremacists and right-wing extremists who continue attacking our law enforcement and engaging in active, violent plots against our national security. Oddly, there hasn’t been a single word uttered about this very real, dire, active threat to Americans by the current leadership in the Trump regime.
Instead, the Pentagon just mobilized 700 US Marines to enter Los Angeles and pour fuel on a fire that was created by the Trump regime’s decision to send 2000 National Guard members to crack down on peaceful protestors. Our U.S. military is being used to occupy parts of LA and potentially attack U.S. citizens and residents, as January 6th violent insurrectionists are pardoned by Trump and encouraged to sue the government and receive financial settlements.
Meanwhile, corporate media continues to engage in a “both sides” coverage to appease an increasingly unhinged right-wing base that sees them as “the enemy of the people.” Jake Tapper of CNN still believes President Biden’s health is the biggest news story of the day, and ABC News decided to voluntarily bend the knee to MAGA whining by suspending their reporter Terry Moran for posting truths about Budget Goebbels Stephen Miller.
Although all of this is shocking, none of this is surprising to those who read Project 2025, which is the MAGA blueprint for how they would rule during the 2nd Trump Administration. Before the election, Trump literally threatened to do exactly what he’s done during the first 4.5 months of his regime. His escalating crackdown on L.A. remains a test case to normalize authoritarianism and repression. If nobody stops the military and National Guard from being unleashed during a bogus emergency, then why would anyone stop Trump from invoking the Insurrection Act and suspending elections?
If this is all impossible to imagine, well, I urge you to turn on your television tonight. You’re going to see Marines and the National Guard marching against Los Angeles residents simply because they were protesting masked ICE agents kidnapping their loved ones without due process. None of this needed to happen, except this is exactly what Trump, Stephen Miller, and MAGA fascists wanted to happen to justify imperial rule.
The question remains: what will the majority do to fight back, and will enough people wake up before the fascist boot kicks down their door?
I invited Mueller She Wrote’s Allison Gill to discuss this latest development, the Republican end game, and what actions the rest of us can take to resist.
Give us a watch!
