Not only is the Republican Party committed to Trump authoritarianism, they are also willing to call patriotic Americans who dissent and disagree with the direction Trump and MAGA are taking our nation, “terrorists”. According to Noem, American protestors are every bit as dangerous as Hamas! As bad and as dangerous as ISIS! What country is that nitwit living in? That is how far Trump kiss ups are willing to demonize dissent in America. From the Speaker of the House to cabinet secretaries: protesting in America is the same as the 9-11 highjackers killing thousands of Americans. Same playbook, according to Republicans! P.S.: Republicans are very, very sick puppies!
This is 100% projection by Johnson. It is Johnson who is being un-American in the extreme by labeling a No Kings day as a “hate America fest”.
Disgusting. These Trump worshippers are sickos!
Homeland security secretary calls loosely affiliated network of anti-fascist street activists ‘just as dangerous’
www.theguardian.com
The homeland security secretary,
Kristi Noem, on Wednesday compared antifa to MS-13, Hamas, Hezbollah and the Islamic State, calling the loosely affiliated network of antifascist street activists “just as dangerous” as designated terrorist organizations during a White House roundtable discussion.
“They are just as sophisticated as MS-13, as TDA [Tren de Aragua], as Isis, as Hezbollah, as Hamas, as all of them, they are just as dangerous,” Noem said. “They have an agenda to destroy us, just like the other terrorists we’ve dealt with for many, many years.”
The roundtable featured rightwing social media journalists such as Andy Ngo, Nick Sortor, Katie Daviscourt and others who cover leftwing protests.
Some of the groups Noem cited – Hamas, Hezbollah and Isis – are formally designated terrorist organizations that control territory, operate military wings, maintain command structures and have carried out mass casualty attacks including bombings, kidnappings and assassinations.
Extremism experts
have long described antifa, by contrast, as having no centralized leadership, formal membership or organizational structure, and it has generally been described by federal law enforcement as a decentralized movement of activists who engage in protest activity, some of which has included property destruction and street violence.
According to Noem, these people are every bit as dangerous and bloodthirsty as Hamas or ISIS!

Anti-Trump demonstrations planned for Bradenton and Sarasota on Saturday

House Speaker Mike Johnson is wrong about a lot of things, an ineptitude borne largely from his blind, almost worshipful obedience to Donald Trump, which outweighs any care he might have about actually governing the nation. The president tells Johnson to jump, the speaker just shuts down Congress. Whether it’s blocking votes on releasing the Epstein files, refusing to negotiate with Democrats on protecting Americans from skyrocketing health care costs, or helping Trump duck responsibility for his attacks on democracy, Johnson has become the epitome of a servile follower masquerading as a leader.
That explains Bootlicker Johnson’s ridiculous — and perhaps dangerous —
comments last week labeling the planned “No Kings” protests on Saturday as a “hate America rally” that would attract “the pro-Hamas wing” and “the antifa people.”
Translation for those not fluent in dog whistles: Americans gathering this weekend in Bradenton, Sarasota and across the nation to exercise their God-given, First Amendment right to peacefully assemble and protest are, in Johnson’s view, un-American and maybe even dangerous.
