The Terrifying Way Literal Nazis Are Using Steve Bannon’s Podcast

Neo-Nazis have co-opted the far-right podcast to recruit new members.

One might think some of our pro-Trump supporters would question why they are supporting a man embraced by Nazis, but one would be mistaken.

At this point, many of them know and agree with them. They may not come out in public. But they aren’t speaking out against these nazis. Because at the end of the day, they agree with them. They don’t want to see a multi-racial democracy. It disrupts the hierarchy that has been established. LBJ nailed these guys decades ago.

"If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you."

This has been a common theme in America since at least the early 1800s. The big difference today is that many of these racists aren’t poor (economically) anymore. Culturally and intellectually they’re poor but economically they aren’t. They’re finding meaning in life by hating others. Just check what your local GOP is ranting about or your local Moms for Liberty group is whining about. It’s all conspiratorial grievances against “the other.”

I guess a lot of Trump’s base, and those who attend his rallies in a “hey, let’s go see the nut” frame of mind are instead being bored out of their minds, and emptying the venue to sleep at home instead….

Are Trump’s campaign rallies energizing his base – or sowing doubt?

Given rambling speeches and personal attacks over policy talk, supporters wonder if events do more harm than good

We can only hope that his base has been very disillusioned with his performance of late and either stays home on election day or picks some independent instead of Trump.

Don’t know how Trump supporters can look at themselves in the mirror, and not feel shame….Trump’s team even tried to blame the individual involved, calling him “mentally disturbed”…..

Trump staffers reported over altercation at Arlington cemetery during photo op

Officials at military cemetery say two campaign members ‘verbally abused and pushed’ a representative

Officials at Arlington national cemetery have filed a report over the behavior of members of Donald Trump’s campaign staff who reportedly shoved and verbally abused an employee during a “crass” photo opportunity for the Republican presidential candidate.

The officials confirmed that a confrontation took place at the Virginia cemetery on Monday after the former president participated in a wreath-laying ceremony for 13 US servicemen and -women killed in a 2021 suicide bomb attack in Kabul, Afghanistan.


In a statement, Arlington acknowledged one of its representatives became involved in the altercation with two Trump staffers, telling them that only cemetery representatives were allowed to take video and photographs in Section 60, an area where recent US casualties mostly from Iraq and Afghanistan are buried.
