Well, Tom, we could also call *you* an embezzler that took bribe money from undercover FBI agents in a paper sack. Or would you rather we don’t keep talking about that too?

This scans entirely for Homan and for Republicants. Manufacture a crisis, unnecessarily force the militarization of the situation, attack people, and then blame Democrats for the problem. Republicants in Congress openly support monstrous acts by the President, and then MAGA sheep blindly fall in line behind them, blaming the victim.

All Republicans are fascist domestic terrorists. They’re also apparently snowflakes who don’t like being labeled exactly what they are.

..yeah, they’re real tough..when they’re shooting people who don’t shoot back.
Trump: “*They’re the worst, hardened criminals, murderers, drug dealers, gang-bangers and thieves – domestic terrorists!!*”, etc.
I guess we all know that rhetoric was a crock of s**t.
Hey Maga: You’re still not getting it. He’s breaking down the only people who can come to your aid when it’s your turn (and your turn is already beginning). You wanted the Epstein files released. Do you think Republicans are who’s forcing his hand? These are your fellow countryfolk he’s kicking around. If you abandon them, who are you *really*?

This is the same argument Fucker Carlson used to justify why conservatives would be “forced” to elect a fascist- because conservatives would feel so hurt they’d have no control over themselves and elect dictators.

This cabal of sociopths isn’t just interested in persecuting people of the “wrong” color, name, or spoken language. That’s their opening maneuver.
They want brutalize and inflict maximal suffering on progressives, liberals, democratic voters, or anybody who is aligned with progressive causes and ideologies. They want to hurt blue states and blue cities.

It’s the classic abuser’s lament: if you didn’t want me to hit you, why were you so mean to me**
This fucking interview was him just flat out saying you keep saying things officers don’t like you run the real risk of getting shot, beat/broken, deported…
“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?… The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If…if…We didn’t love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation…. We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”

Homan is inciting violence with this type of rhetoric. Noem and Bovino are enforcing and encouraging violence against protesters. They are the true criminals and enemies of our democracy.
