Another day just like any other
Out of the blue it turned to horror
How could they?
Why would they?
The innocent suffered hell's inferno
A senseless act that goes unforgotten
How could they?
They will pay

When the eagle cries
Blood will flow
When the eagle cries
For freedom's fight
When the eagle cries
We love her so
When the eagle cries
We will sacrifice.

When the Eagle Cries

#Trump does not even need a Reichstag Fire to start his dictatorship. Foxnews will take care of the alternative fact anyway.

"Trump is considering a national economic emergency declaration to allow for new tariff program, sources say"

@bbiiirdbPhD It is insane that corporate media like ABC described these masked men as "Protestors", as if these people have legit grievance to air.

No, the Nazi were marching as a show of force, a display of power - an unmistakable intimidation tactic. They were there to celebrate the Trump's Nazi presidency.

Putin will root out every single spy in Russia after Jan 2025 because she will find a way to help Putin.

Needless to say, it will severely cripple the US intelligence agencies' capability to recruit for a very long time to come.

Furthermore, Putin can use US military secrets to exchange for money and support from Xi and other dictators.

The rest of Five Eyes has no option but to halt intelligence sharing.

The GOP and conservatives no longer need to 'starve the beast.' #Trump and his clown-car cabinet will dismantle every institution within the U.S. federal government, except those he can use to exact his retribution.

If the USA can survive the next four years, will there even be anything left to rebuild?

Scientific infrastructure will be abandoned, skilled technicians and scientists will be laid off, and vast quantity of data and artifacts will be lost or sold.

As we enter the epoch of the oligarchs, it`s not Trump, Putin or Keir Starmer that are the problem, but the rich elite, particularly the media moguls who pull their strings. Why is there no compassion for the genocide in Gaza? Because those who hold power behind the scenes want a visible demonstration of their power. There is no democracy when the masses will be frightened into voting for the oligarchy through fear mongering in the mass media.

5. Supreme Court throws their support behind Trump: Amid extreme tension and violence, the Supreme Court, with a 6-3 conservative majority, either does not intervene or just straight endorses him.

6. Speaker #MikeJohnson’s declaration: On Christmas Day, Johnson declares Trump the winner based on the 12th Amendment’s rules, ending the process in Trump’s favour.

This game plan explains the increasing violent and explicit rhetoric of Trump in past two weeks.

"What is most striking to my mind are Trump’s polling numbers. Hitler’s high watermark in Germany’s last free and open elections was 37%. Trump is currently polling around 50%. These are percentages that Adolf Hitler could only have dreamed of" - Historian Timothy Ryback

Even if #Trump does not get a second term either through the election or a coup this time, Americans will eventually choose a fascist leader one day. :blobsad:

#DonaldTrump's plan to eliminate all #incomeTaxe is insane #economics.

It will hurt desperately poor people and further enrich the very wealthy.

That's why the #billionaires who are pouring tens of millions of dollars into his campaign are so excited about it.
