Trump Dictatorship and All Things Politics

If your coverage of Donald Trump’s presidency is at all negative, you are breaking the law. You are doing something illegal: you are not agreeing 100% with everything Trump says. Therefore, you, as a reporter, or as an entire news organization, are breaking the law.

Trump apologists everywhere agree with Trump’s conclusion here. People and news organizations that disagree with Trump should not be allowed to have a voice in the United States. And, to think, conservative bigots support Trump’s point of view, completely oblivious to their support of dictatorship and ending freedom of speech in the United States. If you don’t speak out against what Trump says in this clip, then you support the end of freedom of speech in the United States. You support dictstorship, and you cannot squirm your way out of that fact.




Here’s a response that approves of what Trump said about CNN and MSNBC. 100% anti-American, and really, 100% non sensible, as it clearly states overwhelming negative coverage of Trump is not even journalism. Why is that? Why is overwhelming negative coverage no longer journalistic?

This tweet is a very clear example of advocacy for ending freedom of speech in the United States. As well as ending freedom of the press in the United States.

Tweets like this encourage the establishment of authoritarianism, and state control of speech. State control of thought.

How absurd that this tweet ends with “Free speech wins again!”. Really??!! Make no mistake. The people behind thoughts like this, supportive of this point of view, are fine with erasing freedom of speech, and freedom of the press in the United States. It’s not being hidden, they likely are not even aware that they are advocating for erasing our Bill of Rights.

We all know that biden was a war mongerer for sending to weapons to ukraine and israel. And we all know that trump doing the same thing would not be war mongering behavior.
Just like when biden ordered airstrikes on yemen that was war mongering behavior but trump doing it is simply good strong leadership.

Trump orders strikes on Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen and issues new warning

The airstrikes come a few days after the Houthis said they would resume attacks on Israeli vessels sailing in waters off Yemen in response to Israel’s blockade on Gaza.

President Donald Trump said he ordered a series of airstrikes on Yemen’s capital, Sanaa, on Saturday, promising to use “overwhelming lethal force” until Iranian-backed Houthi rebels cease their attacks on shipping along a vital maritime corridor. The Houthis said nine civilians were killed.

“Our brave Warfighters are right now carrying out aerial attacks on the terrorists’ bases, leaders, and missile defenses to protect American shipping, air, and naval assets, and to restore Navigational Freedom,” Trump said in a social media post. “No terrorist force will stop American commercial and naval vessels from freely sailing the Waterways of the World.”

He also warned Iran to stop supporting the rebel group, promising to hold the country “fully accountable” for the actions of its proxy. It comes two weeks after the U.S leader sent a letter to Iranian leaders offering a path to restarting bilateral talks between the countries on Iran’s advancing nuclear weapons program that Trump has said he will not allow to become operational.

At least nine people were killed, said Anees al-Asbahi, spokesman for the Houthi-run health ministry. In a statement on social media, he said another nine were wounded.



Nasruddin Amer, deputy head of the Houthi media office, said the airstrikes won’t deter them and they would retaliate against the U.S. “Sanaa will remain Gaza’s shield and support and will not abandon it no matter the challenges,” he added on social media.

The airstrikes come a few days after the Houthis said they would resume attacks on Israeli vessels sailing in waters off Yemen in response to Israel’s blockade on Gaza. There have been no Houthi attacks reported since then.

Earlier this month, Israel halted all aid coming into Gaza and warned of “additional consequences” for Hamas if their fragile ceasefire in the war isn’t extended as negotiations continue over starting a second phase.

The Houthi media office said the U.S. strikes hit “a residential neighborhood” in Sanaa’s northern district of Shouab. Sanaa residents said at least four airstrikes rocked the Eastern Geraf neighborhood in Shouab district, terrifying women and children in the area.

Saturday’s operation against the Houthis was conducted solely by the U.S., according to a U.S. official. It was the first strike on the Yemen-based Houthis under the second Trump administration, and it comes after a period of relative quiet in the region.

Trump announced the strikes as he spent the day at his Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida.

Trump Orders US Military to Plan Invasion of Panama to Seize Canal: Report | Common Dreams

U.S. officials familiar with the planning said options for "reclaiming" the vital waterway include close cooperation with Panama's military and, absent that, possible war.

President Donald Trump has directed the Pentagon to prepare plans for carrying out his threat to "take back" the Panama Canal, including by military force if needed.

According to the outlet, the officials said that U.S. Southern Command (SOUTHCOM) is drawing up potential plans that run the gamut from working more closely with Panama's military to a less likely scenario in which U.S. troops invade the country and take the canal by force.

The officials explained that the likelihood of a U.S invasion depended on the level of cooperation shown by the Panamanian military.
 
Panamanian jurist Alonso E. Illueca argued that Panama's efforts to appease Trump aren't working. These include the BlackRock deal and other moves like quitting China's "Belt and Road" initiative, taking in third-country migrants deported by the U.S., backing a U.S. resolution on Ukraine at the United Nations Security Council, auditing the country's ports, and revisiting a railway project originally developed by the Chinese government.

"Panama should abandon its accommodating policy towards the U.S., which can only lead to escalating demands to banish Chinese influence, to the detriment of Panama's national sovereignty," Illueca asserted.

"An alternative policy for Panama is to align with the rules based international order," he continued. "This includes establishing synergies with like-minded states which have been also affected by U.S. actions such as Canada, Mexico, Greenland, and Denmark. The country should seek to transcend the U.S.-China binary and find alternatives for alliances, which should include partners like the European Union."
 
Imagine if the Biden administration said they were going to take the Panama canal and if the current owners don't give it up nicely we will take it by force with our military.
trumpers on this site would pounce with the war monger label super quick. I'm guessing they probably think this is a great idea though since it's trump.

Trump could decide to do genital reconstructive surgery and become female and they would all become pro trans. The Republican Party only stands for whatever Trump stands for at any given moment.

Lol so true.
 
A little local flavor for this one......

When the long-misspelled name of Seraph Young Ford — a Utahn and the first woman to legally vote in the U.S. — was corrected on her headstone at Arlington National Cemetery, then-state Sen. Deidre Henderson flew to Washington for the occasion.

Now after military news site Task & Purpose reported Thursday that President Donald Trump’s administration had pulled a section for notable women buried at Arlington off the cemetery’s website, now-Lt. Gov. Henderson, a Republican, is calling on the commander in chief to “please bring back our history.”

“We don’t celebrate these women because they are women,” Henderson wrote in a seven-post thread on X, tagging @realDonaldTrump, Thursday evening. “We celebrate them because of who they were, what they did, what they overcame, and what they mean to us. We see ourselves in them. They shouldn’t be deleted simply because they are women.”

The deletion comes as part of a larger effort by the White House to scrub any pages that it sees as tied to diversity, equity and inclusion values from government websites.

In the final hours of this year’s annual legislative session, lawmakers voted to repeal the Women in the Economy Commission meant to improve gender equity in the state — a category in which Utah has frequently placed last in the country.

“I have a real struggle with people who do know better and should know better at the top of Republican politics, who are sowing doubt and chaos and confusion for political gain — no matter who it is,” Henderson told The Tribune in September. “And yeah, it’s been starting at the top, but it’s also trickling down through the ranks, and anybody who participates in that is not doing their country any service.”

As Utah’s top election official, and just the second woman in the state to hold the position, Henderson has a miniature of a mural of Seraph Young Ford casting her ballot hanging on the wall next to her office’s door.

“We have salvaged their stories from the dustbin of time. We have brushed them off and shined light on women and stories that deserve to be told,” Henderson wrote in her posts directed at the White House, finishing, “Mr. President, give us back our history.”

Maybe it will get to this point in the United States. We’ve had a wave of Right wing populism and authoritarianism around the world. To be honest, I don’t know anything about the specific stresses the people of Serbia are reacting to, but since the country’s leader is apparently a Putin puppet, maybe there’s something Americans can relate to. We need to be as demonstrative as we’ve ever been, methinks. This is impressive:
