Republican cult is the new ISIS.
Republican politicians are appeasing terrorists...because that's their voter base, radicalization and extremism is what they have cultivated, nourished, exploited, and profited from for four decades. Reich-wing politicians, plutocrats, media, Christian nationalism religious leaders, and demagogues thought they could ride the tiger, too arrogant, greedy, and stupid to foresee that master would become slave, and the beast they created would soon come to consume them.

Caught a bit of 'The View' on TV today, and the subject under discussion was Republican gaslighting and history revisionism of January 6. All of the panelists condemned what Congressional Republicans were engaging in, with Joy Behar saying that she and many people she knew were scared for our democracy and country by what the Republicans were doing----except for one, Meghan McCain. She started by saying that she was against Trump's Big Lie and the insurrection, but she did not condemn Congressional Republicans for their deceitful and dangerous behavior gaslighting the January 6 insurrection, perpetuating the Big Lie, and removing Rep. Cheney from her leadership role for telling the truth. Instead, McCain resorted to House Leader McCarthy's right-wing talking point that "we don't need to relitigate this, we need to look forward," trying to sweep Republican insurrection and domestic terrorism under the rug. Then, McCain proceeded to dishonestly engage in Whataboutism, trying to change the subject by attacking Biden and blaming the media for focusing on Republicans instead of Biden's supposed faults, like the cyberattack against the gas pipeline (which was already back online by then), which she claimed was scaring people.
WTF? How is January 6 being relitigated when most of the perpetrators are still at large, only several hundred apprehended charged, with all of those either awaiting trial or a plea bargain? How is it being relitigated when January 6 is still being investigated by authorities, with no commission yet established by Congress to investigate? How are we supposed to look forward when Republican leadership is trying to gaslight and revise history with January 6, won't publicly denounce the Big Lie, causing most Republican voters to still look back at the last election, refusing to accept Biden's win, the combination creating a severe domestic terrorism threat against the U.S.? McCain of all people should know better and taken Rep. Cheney's position, yet she is a perfect example of what is wrong with Republicans, who continue placing party before country.

Dindu ~ "The Nazi gun control argument is a belief that gun regulations in the Third Reich helped to facilitate the rise of the Nazis and the Holocaust. The majority of historians and fact-checkers have described the argument as "dubious," "questionable," "preposterous," "tendentious," or "problematic." This argument is frequently employed by opponents of gun control in debates on U.S. gun politics. Questions about its validity, and about the motives behind its inception, have been raised by scholars. Proponents in the United States have used it as part of a "security against tyranny" argument, while opponents have referred to it as a form of reductio ad Hitlerum.
Few German citizens owned, or were entitled to own firearms in Germany in the early 1930s, the Weimar Republic having strict gun control laws. When the Nazi party gained power, some aspects of gun regulation were loosened, such as allowing firearm ownership for Nazi party members and the military. The laws were tightened in other ways. Nazi laws systematically disarmed so-called "unreliable" persons, especially Jews, but relaxed restrictions for "ordinary" German citizens. The policies were later expanded to include the confiscation of arms in occupied countries."
The plain truth is that the Nazis put far more weapons into the hands of Germans----particularly Nazis----than were possessed previously. The plain truth is that you're still making a pathetic attempt to project the fascism existing within the Republican party. The plain truth is that Americans from across the political spectrum support common sense gun control, not just Democrats. Get a clue----not some fascist Republican cult of seditious terrorists, Dildo!
