who could've seen this coming? https://www.politico.com/news/2022/01/04/ruben-gallego-merrick-garland-capitol-attack-526480 “I think Merrick Garland has been extremely weak, and I think there should be a lot more of the organizers of Jan. 6 that should be arrested by now,” Gallego said in an interview on CNN. The Arizona congressman, a retired Marine who sheltered reporters in his office during the Jan. 6 riots, called Garland “feckless” and said he “has not been helpful in terms of preserving our democracy.” ah yes, the oracle of ET:
It's amusing to hear @Tsing Tao calling people authoritarian when he supports a governor of a state who is a raving autocrat. ‘DeSantis is particularly disturbing’: Expert warns states are becoming ‘laboratories of autocracy’ https://www.rawstory.com/desantis-i...tates-are-becoming-laboratories-of-autocracy/
pray tell who tsing tao is accusing of authoritarianism? The projection of MAGGAts has reached delusional status.
It's amusing to see @gwb_trading gnash his teeth over DeSantis, and post articles that don't provide anything other than a shrinking opinion of Ron DeSantis. Ron scares the NPC crowd because he's gaining popularity, goes against the establishment and ends up being right most of the time, making the NPC crowd look like complete morons. A review of the "article" posted from "Rawstory" (hey, at least it isn't BlogMickey this time). First, I'd like to post this from GWB_NPC's own favorite site to use when discrediting a media organization: Ultra left wing, with mixed factual reporting. But you'll only see the NPC pull this out when it suits him. Now onto the editorial. The "article" is basically a Trump trumpy trump obsession angry fest, but there are a few mentions of DeSantis: AMY GOODMAN: Finally, we talk about him as a model and him modeling himself on autocrats around the world. But what about him as a model at home for people like Ron DeSantis, the Florida governor? You lay out, in a very chilling piece, this image of DeSantis surrounded by the people he wants to basically deputize as what his opponent in running for governor has talked about as his “secret police.” RUTH BEN-GHIAT: Yeah, Ron DeSantis is an example — so, when you have somebody like Trump who imposes this kind of authoritarian party discipline, the system populates with mini-Trumps. They used to be called mini-Duces and mini-Hitlers, and now we have these mini-Trumps. And so, what we’ve seen is, in places like Texas and Florida, states are becoming laboratories of autocracy. And DeSantis is particularly disturbing, because, you know, he wants to have his own civilian National Guard. And many states have those, but I discovered, doing research, that he’s also establishing an office for, quote, “election integrity,” which is code speak for election fraud, where it’s going to have its own prosecutors and investigators. So, anybody who — if there’s like an election result in the state that DeSantis doesn’t like, he can have his goons go after them and accuse them of violating election law. And they’ve made what used to be misdemeanors into felonies, so these people could be put in jail. So this is an example of the kind of authoritarian system at the state level that DeSantis has planned. Right, right. "Ruth Ben-Ghiat" knows precisely what DeSantis has "planned" to take over Florida (he is winning by landslide numbers, so he needs to challenge the results, of course). Ruth, who is an avid supporter of CRT (which the NPC hates - but the NPC hates Desantis more because of how stupid the governor has made him look), and who believes the GOP is the Nazi party. Yeah, she's going to give a real balanced view on Ron DeSantis.
Here is his quote - "I was surprised, that's all. I think all of the raving lefties are Canadian or not American. GWB being the exception, though he's not really a lefty, he's just a raving authoritarian (similar)."
Cuddles4Money knows what I wrote. He logs out and back in again and pretends otherwise. Its actually quite comical.
Insert comments about Biden's autocracy and private army, or blah blah blah... Silence from the DeSantis haters.
ah...ic; it's become a con talking point to accuse this admin of "authoritarianism" so reckoned he was parroting like the NPC he is.
