Killing for Trump (Thom Hartmann)


(Thom Hartmann) The dark theory about Trump's enemies.
  • The Existentialist Republic with Christopher Armitage (cmarmitage.substack.com)
  • Experts say blue states can stop paying federal taxes. There’s precedent. If we could use nullification for people to get stoned, why can’t we use it to protect human rights and stop fascism? (Christopher Armitage)
  • How will I get out of this one? $$$? Trump?
    The walls are closing in on Elon Musk in Wisconsin criminal bribery investigation: A bipartisan commission found probable cause of felony election bribery, and prosecutors in three more states have statutes that fit the same conduct (Aug. 4)
  • I 💌 Fearless Leader Trump. He made me rich.

    Ex-Attorney General Pam Bondi implicated in as much as $5.5 million in insider trading, but what can be done about it [if Trump blocks investigation or prosecution of this corrupt Epstein Files fraudster]? (Aug. 3)
  • ICE is the new Secret Police, Trump's jackboots
    There are now 22,000 ICE Agents. The Supremacy Clause says states can prosecute every one who breaks the law. A condition sitting in the first sentence of the Supremacy Clause decides whether states can prosecute federal agents. Courts have spent decades reading… (Aug. 2)

Who is Thom Hartmann?
 Thom Hartmann (Uncle Tom Heartless? No!) He is a progressive radio voice who is so radical he sometimes backs Bernie Sanders but then switches to Hillary Clinton, Kamala Harris, or anyone else who looks like they might come to power through the Democrat Party Machine. He will talk to investigative journalist Greg Palast about election fraud then just go mute on the subject. He'll criticize Trump's personality but not really do anything structural about it. This makes him more of a political entertainer than a voice for change. On occasion he covers an edgy story, but not usually. He is like the Rush Limbaugh of a bumbling Left looking for its footing, a mouthpiece without much of a cause, a know-it-all intent on keeping the status quo, a failed self-promoter who manages to appear to really be doing something to help with precious little to show for it.
