Jesus fucking Christ. These pieces of shit are really feeling emboldened now, like there's not going to be any opposition to stop them. We need to make fucking sure these pieces of shit are left cowering in their homes, and afraid to be out in society. Removed from the herd.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:

- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Unfortunately half the US agrees with him and the other half is a bunch of pants-pissing cowards.
No. Its about 30%. Too damn high, but it is not half
You know what? It doesn’t matter. It could be 5 percent and it wouldn’t make a lick of difference if the rest of your country sits there with its thumbs up it’s asses and allows it.
If it’s 30% and not 50? Great- the rest of you look even WORSE for not dealing with it. Get off your sofas and start ensuring these people don’t feel safe leaving their homes.
Volunteer with your state and local democrats to help remove GOP scum like Eric Schmitt
30% backing a fascist government as the floor is pretty fucking awful. That doesn’t leave a lot of room for the shitty normal conservatives or the centrists who are so terrified to actually have a stance that they’ll fight people with a strong opinion before they fight a fascist.
Absolutely half, maybe more even, are the kind of people who will either cause the problem or do nothing to stop it or even try to tell the good people that they’re being dramatic because they don’t want to face the fact their country is a broken mess.
Not being bothered to show up and vote against them seems like they agree to some extent.
The US isn't a democracy. Its rare for people's votes to lead to positive outcome.
People should vote, but they MUST do direct action to bring about positive change, especially for fighting systemic & entrenched racism. That's more important
I'm sorry that taxing and auditing the rich, getting paid sick leave to railroad workers, expanding healthcare coverage to millions of americans, keeping literal nazis who set up illegal tents and cages out of power, etc aren't "positive outcome" to you.
Just so we're clear, everything happening right now is happening because millions less people voted in 2024 than in 2020.
Timecop, the Van Damme movie, predicted a future US would have a White Nationalist Party. But they only predicted it would get 5% of the vote.
I've decided to stop referring to them as Republicans. From now on I'm just referring to them as Confederates. There's no distinction whatsoever between the two. Their goal is a 21st century CSA.
Eric Schmitt is a piece of shitt.
Every single republican is a vile traitor and should be dealt with accordingly.
Another fucking traitor
This isn't "full mask-off white nationalist". This is regular dog-whistle white nationalist.
JD Vance recently said the exact same thing.
My own family sees nothing wrong with being white nationalists. Because BLM is a thing they can be racists now. The amount of hate in these people is palpable.
Incredibly annoying to read article. Felt like the author was intentionally being ambiguous about what was paraphrasing and what was reading between the lines.
Reading the actual speech it's not so much mask off as it is mask slightly higher. It's still white supremacist garbage but it's just the same white supremacist garbage they've been saying for years. Mask-off means explicit, it's still just implicit.
I just went through the transcript and the part that stood out as the worst was the dangerously divisive "America doesn't belong to them. It belongs to us."
This guy should not be allowed to hold office.
Those comments are in criminal violation of his oath of office. He should be impeached, convicted, and removed. Of course there will be nothing but crickets.
" His answer is that the nation is fundamentally not based on the idea of equality or freedom or any other ideal. Nor is it accessible to people of all races and religions. "
Well he isn't wrong about that. Fundamentally it was a nation for "new money" people to own.
I wish Jason Kander had a won in MO when he ran.
Schmitt is shit and absolutely full of it. Great neck to break in the upcoming guillotine
