Is this whole charade the way Musk takes over the world?

 It is pretty obvious that Trump is doing what Putin tells him to do. How does Trump get his orders.  Musk?

Is Elon Musk Trump’s Russian handler?

What’s in it for Musk?  How about the U.S turns Canada into U.S states, where Musk is a citizen, so Musk becomes the U.S president.

But Musk would become U.S. dictator, like his admired murderous Roman dictator, Sulla. It was no accident that Musk’s Nazi salute was claimed by Musk to be a Roman Salute. Hitler was too small a precedent for the deranged Musk, he reaches back to Sulla, the precursor of Caesar.

So this is what he means by Dark MAGA. Oh boy…

American authoritarian oppression - a long history

 The United States has always had two energies in its history - idealism and equality on one side, oppression and opportunism on the other - good America and bad America, it seems to me.

In the beginning, we had a country founded on the ideal that "all men are created equal" - equality is the dream of America.

But, also in the beginning the Founding Fathers had to allow slavery.  Slavery was the first brutal authoritarian oppression.  There was no democracy nor equality in the Southern Slave States.

Then we had President James Polk and Manifest Destiny - i.e. the idea that white Americans were properly blessed and destined to annihilate native Americans and take over all the land to the Pacific.  There was no democracy nor equality in the barbarous subjugation of the native Americans who were already here.

Then we had the Civil War and a brief freeing of the slaves in the south, only to have that freedom and equality taken away by the infamous Compromise of 1877 where a disputed presidential election was resolved by allowing the Republican, Rutherford B Hayes, to win the election in return for the removal of Federal Troops who were enforcing the reconstruction laws.  The result was nearly a century of brutal Jim Crow South where blacks did not vote, did not have rights under the laws, and were intimidated, crushed, lynched.  There was no democracy nor equality in the Jim Crow South.

Then we had the Women's RIghts Movement that finally gave women the right to vote in the 19th amendment in 1920.  This was democracy and equality.

Then there was the Civil Rights movement of the '50s and '60s culminating in the Voting Rights act of 1965 to protect the Constitutional amendments no. 14 and 15 allowing blacks to vote and have equal civil rights. This was democracy and equality.

Then there was the infamous Roberts Supreme Court that gutted the Voting RIghts act in Supreme Court edicts in 2013 and 2023. This was an attack on democracy and equality.

So, now, we have a new Republican in Name Only MAGA administration openly Ruling as a King, Ruling by Fiat, usurping Constitutional Congressional authorities by destroying Congressional laws and agencies at their destructive whim. Democracy and equality are being destroyed. Right now.  At the direction of a hostile foreign power, Russia, I believe.  It could be just stupidity and ignorance, but it seems to me to be too disciplined and focused to just be the blatherings of a nitwit.

Once the Orange Contagion is gone, his MAGA fanatics will still be with us. And what used to be our allies know it. How can they ever trust America again knowing that the millions of Americans who voted for, supported, and worshiped the Orange Contagion are still here. What will they do?  What need they do now?  

What used to be our allies will look to markets and supply chains outside the U.S.  They will need to develop their own nuclear weapons since it becomes obvious that this group of fools will not protect them.  They will fight any invasion of their territory by a nitwit led U.S.  

For now, there is a quick victory of authoritarianism over America.  It is not the first authoritarianism in America.  It is back again. This is horrifying to me.

But this is not the end of the story.  I truly believe that democracy and equality will prevail and that Goodness, Truth, and Beauty will triumph over the threats, violence, and fear of authoritarianism.

But it is ugly right now. We have work to do.  

Do we need to become a Parliamentary Country?

 I have never paid much attention to the parliamentary systems, but one thing I do notice is that when a current government is collapsing they can call for an election to replace it. But here? We’re stuck with a literal madman collapsing the country and perhaps the world, and we have no way of calling for a new election. 

What do we do?  We are left with a Republican Party that has disappeared and been overrun by an equally mad MAGA.  The only recourse is that MAGA impeaches him, finds him guilty, and removes him from office. What egregious atrocity could trigger that?  Invading Canada? Proof that he is a Russian Asset?  Hanging political opponents or critical journalists?  

What is it going to take?  This isn’t about a difference of political philosophy. This person is nuts. 

Trump joins Putin in attacking Ukraine

 It is more and more clear to me that the person Americans voted into the White House is a Russian asset.  Why do I think so? Because he just stopped America from sharing battlefield intelligence with Ukraine and the next day Russia launched a brutal attack on Ukraine without American intelligence to for-warn and inform their defense. In other words, the American Asset helped Russia attack Ukraine. So…

He is helping Russia conquer Ukraine. And…

He is actively ending American soft power by crippling USAID which is our providing food, healthcare, infrastructure assistance and compassionate aid to the poorest and most vulnerable in the world. And…

He is destroying the Department of Justice, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the U.S. Intelligence services by installing leaders who are astonishingly unqualified and dedicated to the destruction of their capabilities in obeisance to the revenge lust of their deranged master. And…

He is gutting the various militaries of leadership under the fake cover story of getting rid of “DEI” appointments. This is like racists in the middle of last century getting rid of a Jackie Robinson, Willie Mays, and Frank Robinson from baseball. And…

He is destroying the U.S economy with tariffs and inflation. 

I don’t need the testimony of former Russian spies saying he was recruited by Russia in 1987 and 2013. I can see the works of a Russian Asset every day. 

But the only way America and the world can be saved is if Republican MAGA impeaches him and convicts him, removing him from office. And that only happens if there is undeniable evidence that he is a Russian Asset. 

But, how many in the MAGA Congress and Senate are also compromised by Russia?

America is waking up. This shall not stand.
