There are a lot of morons who throw around the "fascist" label without knowing anything about what that ideology is about other than it is authoritarian, but there is a lot more to it than that. Fascism is based on the "corporate state" where political power, and authoritarian political power, is shared between fascist politicians and corporations and organizations in league with them. Executive decrees are used more than legislation through elected bodies. If Mussolini showed up today in a time machine, he would find himself much more comfortable in the Biden administration than the Trump administration. The Biden regime is the one that adheres more to classic fascist orthodoxy.

The main difference between communism and fascism is that under communism, the state owns all the property while under fascism private companies and individuals still own the property but government dictates how they can use it. Today's Democrats share an ideological kinship with Mussolini's fascists.

The European farmers call the EU Green Deal "climate communistm" but ideologically what is being pushed by the climate alarmists is much more out of the classic fascist playbook. A term I first heard when I was in college, "eco-fascism" is much more appropriate for the climate alarmism movement of today.

The dollar has already lost 20% of its value under Biden. If that frontman for a far left cabal gets back in, then stick a fork in America, we are done.

Spot on, Van Zant, Bozo Bob does not bother to read the article linked above so that he might learn some real facts. Instead, he hypes the far left narrative, which is anti-meat.

Hooray for some common sense judges in the federal system. This makes 11 states where this dictatorial travesty has been blocked. Fifteen more states have pending lawsuits to block it.

Unfortunately, nobody is going to bat for the girls of North Carolina. Our radical left Attorney General Josh Stein actually supports Biden's distortion of Title IX. If not blocked in North Carolina, the radical Biden DOE is set to try to force boys into girls bathrooms and locker rooms and onto girls athletic teams. Even when all 26 states that have filed lawsuits get it blocked, the Biden DOE can still some after states like North Carolina.

This is a dictatorial abuse of power by the Biden regime which is thumbing its nose at the Constitutional doctrine of Separation of Powers. Congress adopted Title IX of the 1972 Civil Rights Act to protect women in education. The executive branch is supposed to enforce that law, NOT rewrite it to something different, which is what Biden is trying to do. He is acting like a dictator to usurp the powers of Congress.

While there are some Republicans who can correctly be called Uniparty like Mitch McConnell, Paul Ryan, John Boehner, Mitt Romney, Lisa Burkowski, THom Tillis, Phil Berger, and Tim Moore, trying to suggest Trump is one is way out there. There was lots of fraud in the 2020 election, mostly engineered by Democrat shyster Marc Elias to screw Trump and the conservatives.

The Qanon people are the people who would be in Putin's pocket. For the Putin crowd, here is the explanation given in Putin's mouthpiece "Russia Today" on what happened to Ukraine's gold in 2014: www.rt.com

That was the quasi-official Russian account of Ukraine's missing gold reserves, but Russia and truth very rarely go together.

You can spin the political events of 2014 however you like but the facts are that the corrupt pro-Russian president fled the country because he counted heads in parliament and realized he was going to be impeached and removed the next day. His party boycotted that session of parliament but parliament had well more than a quorum and all the other parties voted unanimously to remove him. The removal was done by a proper Constitutional process by parliament. Those are simply the facts.

Now, I can see why that corrupt pro-Russian president chose not to stay around after he was certain to lose his presidential immunity when he was impeached. On his orders, secret police snipers had murdered over a hundred protesters, whose blood was on his hands. He got out of Dodge just ahead of the posse.

Good catch, Country Girl. This is huge. A federal judge has shot down Biden's Title IX rewrite, where he imposed bureaucratic rules that stood Title IX as passed by Congress in 1972 on its head. Biden tried to delete the protection of women and girls and replace it with protection of "gender identity" and "sexual orientation". That is the opposite of what Congress passed.

Attorney General Paxton did a great job in shooting this monstrosity down. While this will help the other 25 states suing Biden over this travesty, the order does not seem to explicitely apply to them. With our radical left state AG Josh Stein, NC is not one of the states suing to overturn this harebrained rule.

FERPA would prevent the school system from releasing the names of the perps to the media. It would NOT prevent the school system from making a police report and charging them for the crimes they committed. That should be enough leverage to motivate the perps or their families to make resitution for the damages done. Sweeping this under the rug and making the taxpayers cover the damage is just unacceptable.

Nobody believes that "privelege" crap except the ultra-woke.

This is utter nonsense. The Azov Battalion are NOT "neo-nazis". That is just Putin propaganda, and while the Gateway Pundit is good on a lot of things, they are in Putin's pocket on the Ukraine war. The REAL Nazi is Vladimir Putin himself

There is an unfortunate knee jerk reaction of some on the Right to Biden's expsenisve but tepid support of Ukraine causing some to think they need to support Putin. That is plain crazy.

One of the best conservative sources on what is happening in Ukraine is RedState, and here is their latest article: .redstate.com

So, five links with the facts and a smoking gun tape, that was long hidden, where Pelosi admits it, and you still quibble about it, Little Bobbie? You cling to your far left narrative that much?

The judge handling Hunter Biden's case has handled one other case of someone lying on an application to purchase a gun. In that case, the defendant lied about the state he lived in, and she gave him a one year active sentence. We will see if she does any different for Hunter. www.washingtonexaminer.com

Shooting from the hip as usual there, Bobbie? Guessing without any knowledge of who is involved. And your far left ideology almost mandates you whining about "privelge" or "entitlement". That is an irrelevent side show. It does not matter who did this, they ought to be punished and made to pay restitution for the damage they caused. Let the chips fall where they may.

Translated from Bolshevik Bob's Orwellian Newspeak, the word "true" as he uses it means "consistent with the far left narrative". And Pelosi admitted it on tape, you idiot.

Commented: Tuesday, June 11th, 2024 @ 9:29 am By: John Steed

Well, RH, Bolshevik Bob ALWAYS defines "true" as being what is consistant with the far left narrative, and his definition never is based on what is factual, and that is the case here as well. It is just his Orwellian Newspeak, where terms like "true" and "fact" have no relationship to the way most people think. "Politically correct" means more to clowns like Bobbie than "factually correct".

It is a pattern with the far left. Anything that disagrees with their narrative they call "misinformation" or "disinformation". If you do not agree with them, they claim it is not "true".

Cheeseman may think he is protecting his reputation or the reputation of the school system by covering it up. He may have an idea who gave the key, and they may be his buddy. He may not want another conroversy right now. The perps may be minorities and he does not want a racial incident. He may feel sorrow for new graduates getting a criminal record. There are all sorts of things someone like Cheeseman could use to conclude he needed to do a coverup.

It does not matter who it is. They need to pay for what they have done, at least financially and probably beyond that.

Didn't you get that court ruling, Bobbie? The mRNA jab is a therapeutic, NOT a vaccine. It is also a therapeutic with some nasty side effects, some fatal.

I thought you take the position that courts are always right, and this is a high level court, the second highest in the federal court system, not a puny pissant court like that of Juan Merchan.
