@bjmcguire.bsky.socialThis is where we are at. The GOP billionaires have close to $1B more to spend in the midterms than Dems.
Democrats need to improve their message-they cannot just be against Trump. The Socialist stamp needs to be define by Democrats.
Donate to Dem candidates, they are outgunned.
@bjmcguire.bsky.socialDespite the SC ruling last night on Trump not being able to restrict mail in ballots, I urge every Democrat to vote in person.
Trump is a felon and does not care about the rule of law. He will lie, steal and cheat to win. He doesn’t care about the rule of law.

#6 Controlling Mass Media
I am old enough to remember when being a pedophile was universally considered unacceptable. How do republicans twist logic to keep the Epstein files under wraps?
It has been 269 days since the DOJ refused to release the Epstein Files.

#6 Controlled Mass Media
CBS used to be a respected news outlet, no more. What is happening in the US, which prides itself on the Fourth estate, is scary for America. Trumps propaganda is there to frighten and confuse.
Executives are culpable in this treason.

#9 Corporate Power is Protected
#13 Rampant Corruption
Pardons based on political donations seem to have been overlooked by the constitution writers. The Dems need to put forth a policy of all Pardons being approved by a nonpartisan commission.
@bjmcguire.bsky.socialOn brand for the GOP. At least they are not hiding it anymore.

#14 Fraudulent Elections
We should all be concerned about the November elections. The GOP is on target to lose big, Trump knows this and they are doing everything to keep control. He has no morals and will do anything to win.
Be prepared to march for America .
@bjmcguire.bsky.socialIt has been 266 days since the Trump DOJ failed to release the Epstein files as required by law.
Only one GOP congressman is calling for these documents. The rest are complicit in covering up the crime of abusing children.
America has lost its way.

#3 Identification of Enemies.
Demonizing the Democratic Party is one of the core acts of the GOP. Preaching that only the GOP are the only true patriots, the Dems are Extremists, implying that they are bent on destroying America . Ugly propaganda.

#2 Disdain for Human Rights
Using lCE to break up families, imprison individuals in foreign prisons, no due process, kill and rape with no repercussions, is an ugly moment in US history.
One day we will be paying reparations for these crimes against humanity.

#8 Religion and Government are intertwined
Scary stuff from the VP, when they think they are doing Gods work. This gives them no guardrails and allows no accountability. They are answering to an invisible man that allows them to destroy the world.
@bjmcguire.bsky.socialTechnocracy preached they were anti-fascist but wanted an overthrow of democracies around the world in favor of engineers and scientists running the government .
The theme of uniting Canada, Greenland, Panama with the United States is a theme coming back in the Trump Admin.

#13 Rampant Corruption
Totally inhuman what Trump and his cronies are doing. They are criminals and part of this is to steal from the American people.

#9 Corporate Power Protected
Fascists are dishonest and criminal. Sociopaths with no concept of right or wrong. Donation to the powerful gets you a get of out of jail free card.
@bjmcguire.bsky.socialSign of Fascism
#9 Corporate power is protected
The Trump swamp can be bought and sold. Justice is being to those with money. The oligarchs have no laws that they need to abide by.
@bjmcguire.bsky.social#13 Rampant Corruption
Fascist are dishonest on both their acts and words. DeSantis stealing $10M for his own political gain probably seems tame to what Trump and his family are stealing.
DeSantis knows there is no accountability so he will get away with it.
@bjmcguire.bsky.socialIt has been 261 days since Trump/DOJ refused to comply with the law and release the Epstein files.
The entire GOP is silent on this and are allowing Pedophiles to get away with their crimes.
@bjmcguire.bsky.socialSigns of a Fascist Government
#13 Rampant Cronyism and Corruption
Trump has enriched himself and his family. He has pardoned people who have donated to his campaign. Trump leads the most corrupt government in the history of this country.
To the GOP - silence is complicity
@bjmcguire.bsky.social#14 Fraudulent Elections
Fascists always falsely claim elections are stolen if they lose (never if they win). This lie seems to justify them committing election fraud themselves.
Do not forget, Trump had a court case for trying to change the outcome of the election in GA.
