Project 2025’s 180-Day Playbook is a remarkably detailed guide to turning the United States into a fascist’s paradise.
Its 2016 all over again.
Every effort to drag the Democratic party over to any kind of popular position is getting labeled as a betrayal. Every effort to oppose Republicans at the state and local level is denounced as uncivil. And as soon as the dust settles in November, the national media will fall in love with the winner, and grow increasingly irate at anyone critical of this abysmally unpopular tumor of a Presidency.
Conservatives need to be banned
By whom?
I remember when republicans were about less government. Pepperidge farms remembers….
I remember when republicans were about less government.
They never really were. They’ve always been the party of corporate cronyism, with “less government” only ever applying to institutions from which they couldn’t generate profit.
Small government has only ever meant minimal regulation. It means nothing when it comes to civil rights or liberties.
I wish it meant minimal regulation.
But set aside abortion and immigration. I’m seeing some crazy efforts to regulate the solar and wind energy industries. I’m seeing efforts to restrict how municipal governments can operate education and transportation infrastructure. In Austin TX, the state government threatened to take over the municipal police department. In Houston TX, they removed the Independent School District and installed their own flacks. Texas law prohibits state agencies and political subdivisions (“Governmental Entities”) from contracting with businesses that boycott energy companies, discriminate against firearm entities or associations, or boycott Israel, which has an enormous impact on the statewide financial system.
So, I’m seeing lots of statewide regulation.
