We ain’t all MAGAs here, brother...
A lot of us who aren't MAGAs, also aren't fans of police state fascists. We also think that living with two standards to pronounce judgement with isn't a good look.
What ALSO isn't a good look is expecting people to believe and agree with a reality based on an alternative version of actual facts. Alternative facts to serve hypocrisy.
We still remember that the party that is all about the "No kings day" narrative is the same party that was engaging in police state fascism, long before the current president ran for office to become their excuse justifying police state fascism.
Jack Smith was first seen being dispatched from the DoJ, taking out dangerous potential opponents to that president/vice president's 2012 reelection bid YEARS before the Trump first ran for office. A successful effort, despite the conviction thrown out by SCOTUS years after that successful re-election while Governor McDonald was appealing instead of running for office. Thrown out unanimously, with SCOTUS taking the extraordinary step of saying that Jack Smith was a threat to the Constitutional separation of powers. Sorry about that, Governor McDonald - the newly reelected President DID apologize... we all good here now???
Telling that nobody remembers how that went!!! Where was the "no kings day" back in 2012?
When was the "No police state fascists day" when we learned that the "Trump-Russia Dossier" was not the 100% verified intelligence agency evidence that Attorney General and FBI 'leaked' to the mainstream media as?
How long did today's protestors need back then to become outraged when we found out that it was a felonious document commissioned and then feloniously funded? Written by two foreign spies, the primary one being a Russian who was then being investigated by the FBI for espionage? With the millions of campaign dollars to illegally pay those foreign spies for that "Dossier" being laundered through a law firm, who illegally declared it as income for legal services provided?
That's just garden variety crime. But then it got far, far worse than the White House and that party just illegally manufacturing political defamation.
If the actual concern is about "kings" in the White House, are these people claiming they were too young to be upset when they were shown that administration then REPEATEDLY sent their last two Attorney Generals and three FBI Directors to Judge Boasberg's FISA courts to perjure themselves to that court and utter false documents in order to get illegal spy warrants?
Or do they believe that the White House top law enforcement in the DoJ and FBI not only decided to hide what they were doing from the White House while going it repeatedly on their own without first seeking the permission of the president? And while doing that successfully prevented anyone within the DoJ or FBI from finking them out to the White House in hopes of some reward? The White House didn't have a clue as to what was going on?
Every appearance, every one of those heading the DoJ and FBI, appearing at those secret courts swore under oath those documents were 100% verified, had successfully been screened by the mandatory Woods Procedures, and they were unaware of any information or evidence that would cast question on their "Trump-Russia Dossier".
They then used the false counterespionage warrants they obtained to feloniously violate the civil rights of THOUSANDS of Americans while hunting and hoping to fund some evidence to get Trump. Removing the civil rights of Americans through color of law is a federal felony - run of the mill police officers have been in the news after being sent to jail for years for just one instance of that felony.
The "two hop rule" that extends a spy warrant two steps up a communications pyramid to rope in everyone the named subject has comms with, and then the comms of those people ensured there were THOUSANDS victimized by that administration's police state fascism. And the felonies they committed to do that.
First they did it, hoping to dirty their opponent up enough to rig the election. And after that failed, continuing to use it in hopes of creating something that could be used to impeach the president who defeated them in the election.
Along the way, these DoJ and FBI felons used every excuse to coerce and then charge for "lying to the FBI" - the same felons who made it possible for themselves to do that by perjuring themselves repeatedly in Judge Boasberg's courts (heard that name recently in the news?) to get those spy warrants. FBI and Attorney General felons, using the product of the felony crimes they committed to charge others with committing the crime of lying to the FBI.
So here we are now: "no kings day". And not a single one of that administration and their minions has been charged for the serial multiple felonies they committed while obtaining those illegitimate warrants to hunt their opponent in hopes of fixing that election.
Judge Boasberg didn't even haul those AG/FBI felons back into his courts to punish them for contempt of court - he just pronounced years later that all those FISA warrants they got from him and his FISA courts through perjury were no longer lawful and could no longer be used.
That was YEARS of police state fascism - using a felonious "dossier" that was created and paid for by that party, initiated by that administration and its DoJ/FBI, and continued under their second administration.
So now these people, outraged that their Illegal Aliens, are being deported as fast as possible have decided that once again enforcing existing immigration law is the cruel actions of the current president acting like a king? Cancel The Police v2.0?
Why?
In summary, anybody wailing that enforcement actions to remove the millions of Illegal Aliens encouraged, invited, and then assisted to illegally enter this country by previous presidents had better be able to show me that they were far, FAR more outraged at the clearly criminal police state fascism practiced by previous administrations, and how they used the DoJ and FBI.
The chances that anybody pushing, endorsing, or participating in "no kings day", and those claiming they are outraged at what they claim is unconstitutional actions by this president, can show they were equally enraged by the previous White House felonious police state fascism is about ZERO.
Most of them still support that police state fascism 100%, with no regrets for the hundreds of everyday Americans whose lives were destroyed by that.
Anybody supporting the sentiments and actions of "no kings day" who can show that they were equally outraged by just the actions of those in the White House, DoJ, and FBI with the "Trump-Russia Dossier"... go ahead, show me how I should change my mind on that.
Any takers?
Now... in the unlikely chance that they import some protestors from nearby Spokane or Missoula to hold a "no kings day" here to support a few of our locals in my home here in Montana... no, I won't bother taking the time to go there.
I've seen enough stupid and hypocrisy at this point in my life that I don't have any need to take time off to go watch it happening yet again.
They're welcome to Speak Their Truths - I'm likely to remind them of what looks to me as either alternative facts, hypocrisy, double standards, or more likely all three.
