definition of Fascism:

"Fascism is a far-right, authoritarian, and ultranationalist political ideology that places the perceived interest of the nation or race above individual rights.

Core Characteristics

Dictatorial Leadership: Power rests in a single, all-powerful leader who uses a cult of personality to command absolute loyalty.

Extreme Nationalism: Society is bound by an intense, exclusionary focus on national greatness and the belief in a natural social hierarchy.

Suppression of Opposition: Regimes use violence, militarism, paramilitarism, and secret police to crush dissent and silence political rivals.

Totalitarian Control: The state seeks to regulate and control public life, education, the media, and the economy.

Rejection of Democracy: Fascism explicitly opposes liberalism, pluralism, socialism, and communism."

"Sep 1, 2026
This morning, Germany has been attacked by homemade rockets fired near a major power plant in Eastern Germany.

German authorities are currently investigating as the country is on high-alert for the possibility of further attacks.

Meanwhile, Russia's largest Baltic Sea port of Ust-Luga is currently burning after suffering major damage from a large scale Ukrainian drone attack as Putin's ability to keep the Russian economy afloat starts to crumble.

Meanwhile, Russia has launched a massive attack on the border of Ukraine & Romania causing an attack drone to fly into Romania and crash onto NATO territory armed with an explosive device.

And meanwhile in Iran, US forces have just launched a new series of strikes along the coast as Iran has continued attacking ships in the Strait of Hormuz. It's expected that hostilities may escalate rapidly in the coming days."

Consulates, duh

Apparently Russian consultants are being shut down.

The headline is from this paywalled story:

- Danielle Seion (error from the Transcript)

"Daniel Siad was a French modeling scout whose name appeared nearly 2,000 times in the declassified Jeffrey Epstein files released by the U.S. Department of Justice.

He was found dead in July 2026 at his home near Paris while under investigation for sex crimes."

- So did Tim Walz!

A Whataboutism a Day keeps the actual thinking of arguments away!

"Without objection, the gentleman is recognized for one minute.

Mr. Speaker, it's been a year since the president signed the Epstein Files Transparency Act, and the government continues to withhold over three million files.

That's why we've introduced the Epstein Files Transparency Act 2, to bring the fight to the state courts, accountability to the Department of Justice, and closure for survivors.

We want perpetrators of these crimes to be investigated and prosecuted.

Men like Jess Staley, Leon Black, Les Wexner, David Copperfield, Lapo Elcom, Tom Pritsker, Glenn Dubin, Frederick Fakai, Eduardo Teodorani, and John Luke Brunell, who was found conveniently dead by suicide in prison.

Danielle Seion, recently discovered dead in Paris.

Ramsay Elkoli and Prince Andrew who committed sex crimes in the United States, too. and women like Leslie Gruff, not a victim, who conspired with Epstein to traffic other women.

Perhaps hearing these names will shame the Department of Justice into delivering justice. I yield back.( What?)"

Sorry, Tom... this Pres and his DOJ, led by his Personal Criminal Attny, are SHAMELESS.

"I came to this country to pursue my education. I didn't come here to commit a crime or hurt anyone," Bel wrote on Instagram on July 30.

"Yet now I'm walking through the streets of the United States with a GPS monitor on my leg, carrying a feeling of shame and humiliation that I never imagined I would experience."

He forgot; "Thanks, Trumpers!".

Trump Lied, Innocent People Died.

"We took Georgia in 2008 and Crimea in 2014 without the US making so much as a whimper. They were, of course, having a hard go of it with insurgents in the Middle East and Central Asia. We are going to redirect their focus back to the Middle East."

"And how are we going to do that?", Dashkov asked.

"We are going to serve them up a war they can't refuse."

from 'Only the Dead', a novel by Jack Carr (end of Chap 5 in Russian Intelligence meeting on Ukraine)

If DJT isn't a Russian plant, he's the next best thing... the US is fading faster than I personally ever thought possible.

He's like, "Here, GW, hold my beer!".

taken, sheesh

As soon as loyalty-based DJT was elected, Putin and Xi knew that Ukraine (25 percent of the world's wheat) and Taiwan (Chipsville) were going to soon be theirs.

Frankly, I'm surprised some ace military shooter hasn't take Kegsbreath out already.

- second-worst president.

DJT certainly has Worst Pres Ever locked up for the foreseeable future... the only way he could lose it is if Nero were resurrected as Pres, and that prolly wouldn't do it either.

I mean, he fiddled while Rome burned (not really, it likely a lyre as fiddles didn't exist for another millenia or so)... and Trump diddled.

This isn't Capitalism, it's Crony Capitalism.

Putin and Xi, who run the two most corrupt large countries in the world, are damn proud of what Trump has pushed over the top in America... Making America Grift Again!

Make America Graft Again!!

Mitch was always a little catty.

- hit piece.

LHT's first thought whenever he sees Trump.

The Prissy President is freaking out over Talarico's 6 point lead in a new poll in Texas...

"Talafreako' they call him because he is a little freaky, Trump, who has endorsed Paxton in the closely watched race to succeed retiring Republican Sen. John Cornyn, said during an unrelated news conference on Thursday.

"And that's not a man that represents the value of Texas," Trump added."

--

"Talarico has focused his campaign on affordability, health care and education while portraying Paxton as too extreme for Texas voters.

He has also embraced the nickname, as he is selling T-shirts with the slogan "I'm a Talafreako" on his website."

"This plan purchased by ICE of robot dogs comes a few weeks after the agency decided to purchase as much as $20 million worth of electric shock gloves for officers to wear during immigration operations.

There's a saying that many of us will be familiar with.

It goes, "The true measure of any society can be found in how it treats its most vulnerable members."

Your tell is that you post such obvious nonsense.
