It's all designed to decide who will be allowed to vote. Since Republicans can't win elections on the issues, this is how they intend to stay in power. www.rawstory.com/washington-d...

sabrinahaake.substack.com/p/the-maga-s... The Republican majority wants to gut the administrative state in service to expanded executive power that will protect oligarchic interests. They believe regulatory agencies and laws should give way to private, for-profit interests.

No one should be dumb enough to believe Cassidy and the rest of the Republicans didn't know or understand what they were doing. Fealty to Trump trumped every other consideration.

This is what they do because they can't win fair and square on the issues. Never trust a Republican.

www.fedsmith.com/2013/10/11/r... The Social Security Amendments of 1983 laid the foundation for 30-years of federal embezzlement of Social Security money in order to use the money to pay for wars, tax cuts and other government programs.

In case you or someone in your family relies on Social Security and vote Republican, guess what? The current bunch in Congress is dead set on getting rid of it one way or another.

www.rawstory.com/bill-cassidy... Sen Bill Cassidy (R-LA) knew RFK Jr. was lying and gave him the deciding vote. Michael Steele, former chairman of the Republican National Committee, said, "He voted for RFK Jr in the face of RFK Jr’s family, saying, ‘Please do not put this crazy man in this job.’”

www.dailykos.com/stories/2025... Republicans stand up at campaign rallies and proclaim government doesn’t work and never will, and then voters hand them the keys. Once in office, they make sure their wealthy friends and donors get the perks while they steer the rest of us straight into turbulence.

American fascism looks like the president using armed military units from governors loyal to his regime to seize cities run by opposition political figures and it looks like the president using federal law enforcement to target regime opponents.

🚨Trump is threatening to send the “regular military” — Army and Marines — into US cities, with Chicago “probably next.” Make no mistake: This isn’t about safety. It’s about control. Using our Troops as political weapons erodes trust in the military and betrays the Constitution he swore to defend.
