Nazi Republicans Buying Elections

It's clear that the Nazis know that they are facing big headwinds in the upcoming midterms so they are pulling out all stops to manipulate voters. The goes from propaganda spewed by right wing media to getting the crypto industry to put $200M toward the nation wide primary elections but also for the general elections in November.

This attempt to buy off candidates is part of Cheeto's corruption of the presidency in which he has profited by $1.4B from his crypto industry involvement by selling his own crypto business, World Liberty Finance. The Congressional Nazis are also supporting the crypto industry in the shadows hoping the electorate won't notice the proposed Clarity Act which would reduce the oversight of the crypto industry by having it regulated by the CFTC and not the more stringent oversight of the SEC.

Call your senators and representative to stop the Clarity Act(Congressional hotline 202.224.3121) and speak your concern about getting big money out of politics. WE the People demand our Congress men and women are not bought off like Ruben Gallego($10M from crypto) and Angie Craig in Minnesota running on the D side primary against Flanagan who refuses PAC $$$.

It is so aggravating to me that Trump doesn’t seem to understand that his corruption is out in the open. We can’t stand his personality and the fact that the family thinks we’re such idiots we don’t know what he’s doing. Much of MAGA are fools but most of the voters are on to him and want him to be tried for his lawlessness. We are on to all his BS

To hold the political criminals accountable, and to keep track of all of them, AI might be an effective tool to keep your lists up to date, otherwise I don't know how one could track all of that.

As is well-known, Trump ran for the Presidency three times, and won twice on the same formula: Racism, Sexism and Xenophobia, RSX. Each of the three elements is grounded in Grievance. He has had the bulk of the Republican Party behind him since the beginning, as well as a major chunk of the financial/resources/manufacturing sector, plus the Constitution Destroyers of P2025. If the Forces of Democracy cannot win at the ballot box --- which the forces of TrumpRepubloFascism (https://www.opednews.com/populum/page.php?f=TrumpRepubloFascism-and-Pr-Project-2025_Trump-240808-198.html) are vigorously mobilizing to prevent ---the TRF's (TrumpRepubloFascists) will indeed end Constitutional Democracy, based first and foremost in the Separation of Powers, and substitute Unitary Government --- in modern times known as fascist dictatorship.

Great conversation. I agree

Jim, here: "...will we preserve the republic — or watch it slip away?" Great question. Still I sense there are too many among us who refuse to consider the 'possibility' —that there could ever be any way it could slip away ...and — "SO WHAT" they shout! However, TRUTH TOLD —perhaps we are beyond the tipping point in believing America can be preserved. Have the critical ideas / elements that made our republic great been compromised in such ways that we are beyond the ability to preserve our nation? Perhaps the game clock for America and her truest patriots to utilize 'Critical Thinking' has since expired, eh??? GAME OVER!!! (Critical Thinking? What the hell is that???)
