PURGE: "It's What We Voted For," Say Republicans

Citizens around the country on this frigid winter day protested the Tyrant's massive purge of the federal civil service, including about 30 who showed up in the pretty little town of Granbury, seat of Hood County, southwest of Fort Worth.  Excerpt from the WFAA report:

"They're dismantling agencies of the United States government that have been here for decades," Hood County protester Payton Fletcher said. 

But Republicans said they voted for a downsize, and they're not concerned by the way it's being accomplished. 

"President Trump is doing exactly what we elected him to do," Hood County Republican Party vice chair Tina Lawrence said. "The first time, he tried to be slower and nice. See what that got him? I couldn't be prouder for what he is doing." 

What he is doing is DESTROYING THE CIVIL SERVICE AND DEMOLISHING THE RULE OF LAW.  In other words, TAKING A WRECKING BALL TO DEMOCRACY.

People, it's not about budget deficits or national debt or anything but SEIZING COMPLETE CONTROL OF THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT. 

It's also about DESTROYING ALL POSTWAR ALLIANCES that our fathers and grandfathers set up to keep the world steady and at peace. 

It's all about ONE MAN RULE. Complete, absolute, unquestioned. Yes, the DICTATORSHIP is here.

Probably soon to be followed by financial depression, food shortages, famine, pandemics, and war. (Ukraine is a dead duck. Europe may be next.)  All these will be used as excuses to rachet up support for the Tyrant - who by then will control all sources of information.  The propagandists are already working full time.

And what little help the government might provide through all this will no doubt be limited to LOYAL FOLLOWERS OF THE LEADER. (No need to go out and buy a party card; an algorithm will determine your loyalty for you.)

Why am I the only one who foresees this?  Am I the only one left who ever read The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich?  Now our very own nightmare empire is arising before our eyes.

Of course, I could be wrong. I'm an old graybeard without a crystal ball or even a smartphone, so what do I know? 

But all that the Democrats foretold about the REIGN OF TRUMP is coming true, so watch out! 

The world we have known all our lives up till now is gone. Welcome to the "golden era" - fool's gold, that is. 

For the record, here's just two videos that sum up what's happening now, here and abroad. I fear that much worse is yet to come.  God help us all.




Addendum:  As of this writing, here's a list of agencies where layoffs have taken place or which have been infiltrated by that overgrown teenager and his goon squad of sticky-fingered geeks, doing who knows what damage to millions of financial and personal records in government files:
This is complete and utter madness.

USAID - U. S. Agency for International Development
CDC - Centers for Disease Control
NIH - National Institutes of Health
FAA - Federal Aviation Administration
NTSB - National Transportation Safety Board
FEMA - Federal Emergency Management Agency
IRS - Internal Revenue Service
USDA - U. S. Department of Agriculture
FDA - U. S. Food and Drug Administration
VA - Veterans' Administration
Social Security
National Park Service
National Forest Service
Pentagon/Department of Defense
U. S. Treasury
OGE - U.S. Office of Government Ethics
 
. . . and the list goes on . . .

I can’t believe it’s about efficiency or saving money. It’s partly about privatization and making the wealthy richer. And I’m not sure how Project 2025, the Federalist Society or “Christian” Nationalists fit in to
the purge. But it’s a “perfect storm” with all three branches of government having enough power and conspiring to destroy our democracy and completely remake our government. I don’t know if they can be stopped or what it would take to stop them.

It's already perfectly clear to me, so stick around and you'll understand soon enough. The American Caesar has arrived, and is eliminating all possible restistance, with the help of a supine Congress and subservient Supreme Court. But dictators like to be able to *say* they are acting within in the law, so expect the dog and pony show to get worse and worse as they all bow before him.

At this present time, I see no way to stop the runaway train. But what do I know; history is full of tricks and turns.
