3) The next step was a widening discussion on the Right that included what they believe to be the average IQ of Haitians, also cannibalism, also Haitian men as a sexual menace to white women. It included Bethel McGrew, a Christian "journalist" trying to argue that she's not racist for saying that "these particular immigrants seem to be manifestly savage and stupid".
Surprised this hasn’t gotten more attention. During the debate, when #Trump claimed (falsely) that on #Jan6 “nobody on the other side was killed,” the “other side” he was talking about was the police & Congress. He also called the rioters “we” before he caught himself.
& yes there were lots of false statements here. People on “the other side” *were* killed. Ofc Brian Sicknick, 42, had a stroke on Jan. 6, eight hours after being sprayed in the face with chemicals, & died Jan. 7. & the suicides of Ofc Howard Liebengood, 51, & injured Ofc Jeffrey L. Smith, 35, on Jan 9 & Jan 15 were each ruled line-of-duty deaths stemming from J6. Finally, Ashli Babbitt’s blood is on *Trump’s* hands. If not for Trump’s lies, she’d be alive today. ...
#Trump’s policy positions are typically much less detailed than what’s in #Project2025. [Probably left intentionally vague to disguise how much they are exactly the same. Also he’s dumb.] We have at times referred to Project 2025 as the meat on the bones of a Trump presidency. To figure out where Trump & the project’s policy goals align, I also looked up what Trump has said – or not said – on the issues the project covers.
Trump's #deportation plan in reality: Round up as many people as can, put them in camps while you deport them.
Except: somehow the rate of deportation never catches up to the rate of detention. So the camps become permanent. Totally unexpected, of course.
Then why not use them as labor, to pay off their debt to us for "invading America"? So they are rented out to (Trump-aligned) industry by the new unitary federal executive as, essentially, slaves.
I am obviously pretty critical of capitalism, its corporate media subsidiaries and the system of servility it seeks to impose upon the world, but I would think, even in that gross corrupt world, "Billionaire Proposes to Rape World's Biggest Popstar for Not Embracing Fascism" might be a bigger story that maybe had some kind of consequences.

On the off-chance you missed it, The richest man in the world, a dull-eyed cloistered neo-Nazi who believes in natalism and that he, as an elect denizen of the master race, has a duty to "breed" as much as possible, a man who purchased a social medium specifically to gatekeep public conversation, to support political candidates that specifically worked for a violent fascist overthrow of the United States, and to reinstate, validate and amplify the voices of fellow neo-Nazis previously banned from the medium for telling Jews randomly and routinely to "get in the oven," who aped, shared and blessed white supremacist "great replacement" theory that specifically prescribes ethnic cleansing as a means of sanitizing sacred "Western culture," and who fanned those voices, including that of a multicount-indicted slaver and sex trafficker and zealous advocate of the subjugation of women, to spark a wave of neo-Nazi riots across England wherein frothing white men tried to burn people in their sleep - that man publicly told Taylor Swift last night, via tweet, that he would deign to rape and impregnate her as some kind of dithering attempt to deter her from her endorsement of a non-fascist presidential candidate.

I cannot YET tell you which are the states that are ACTUALLY in play, because ... you know this by now ... we do not yet have VALID data. I hope to have first view of those states next Saturday
