Steve Schmidt, writing on Substack:
Everywhere there is silence.
My friends, let us assess the situation.
Elon Musk is seizing control of vast troves of data and financial information, and apparently the government’s trillion-dollar payment system. He has shut down USAID, and locked Foreign Service Officers out of their buildings, accessed classified computer systems, and alleged the uncovering of dark conspiracies just like Joseph McCarthy. The world’s richest man is a narcissist. He is attacking the United States of America with the blessings of the president he made his whore with $300,000,000 in political spending that was as corrupt as it was corrupting.
The FBI is being purged.
The State Department is being purged.
The US military is being abused as political props for afternoon fascist theater…
…and as the world’s most expensive Air Uber…
Vengeance is in the air as portraits of General Milley are hunted down, while real terrorists have been given a license to hunt on American soil.
Trump wants his foes dead. This is why he has stripped them of security, despite them facing death threats from the Iranian Revolutionary Guards.
The 27-year-old press secretary, married to a 59-year-old real estate developer and Jack LaLanne impersonator, wears her cross conspicuously, while lying like a Huckabee bred with a Spicer. She is a blustering version of Miss South Carolina 2007, who spews idiotic nonsense. Here is a case in point:
All nonsense.
Secretary Little Marco is in Panama declaring that “we’re going to take it [the canal] back, or something very powerful is going to happen.”
King Donald is waging economic war against Canada, and threatening military action against Mexico and Denmark.
He promised “winning,” but now promises 'pain' before “victory:”
Each day, less and less people will cheer for this madness. Until then, the only hope of stopping the spread of this constitutional crisis is to oppose the usurpation of power from the people into the hands of unelected oligarchs.
Trump is attempting to stoke a response so that he may have a reason to restrict liberties across America. It’s at that instant we will climb to the next level of crisis.
Soon people will be on the streets protesting, and soon the bet made by the tech oligarchs will explode in their faces. Until then, the American people are saddled with the hapless and the helpless, like Chuck Schumer and Tim Kaine, leading the early response.
Schumer thinks tying himself to the train tracks is the thing to do.
Tim Kaine, when asked the following by Jake Tapper, said the following:
Tapper: “Why is your party so staggeringly unpopular with the public?”
Kaine: “Jake, you know me - I'm a Virginian. I know one state well and not so well the other 49.”
He then pivoted to speaking about how the Democrats in Virginia focused on the economy to gain support:
We focus on competent government and running the economy in a great big way that focuses on innovation and advancing. We want to make it here, we want to build it here and in ag and forestry, we want to grow it here. Let's return to the bread and butter basics that people want to rally focus on.
Ok. Beautiful. Very inspiring.
I would like to see a group of American governors and Canadian officials standing together and fighting for our shared values and for peace, prosperity and freedom on the North American continent. This should be the first week of fighting back, but sadly, it’s likely to be another week of retreat and submission. Trump is on the march. Americanism is retreating.
Soon though, there will be a moment when we all decide not to take one more step backward. When that day comes, the beginning of MAGA’s end will be at hand. Until then, the disaster is just beginning.
Who will stand up?
Everywhere there is silence.
