Nazi Trumps Fuck Off #impeachtrump

I don’t think it was stupid. I think he was consciously enabling them:

Throughout his campaign and presidency, Donald Trump has been reluctant to criticize domestic terrorism and hate groups operating within the United States. The president has focused almost solely on foreign threats but the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security reportedly informed Trump months ago about the domestic threat.

In a May intelligence bulletin published by Foreign Policy magazine on Monday, DHS and the FBI pointed out that attacks by white supremacists on U.S. soil far outnumbered every other type of terrorist threat.

The agencies concluded that attacks by white supremacists “likely will continue to pose a threat of lethal violence over the next year.”

Gollum in the White House

Thank goodness today’s White House Press Briefing was on camera because the fireworks we saw from CNN’s Jim Acosta and White House Nazi #2, Stephen Miller, was *insane*. Miller was not prepared for Acosta’s direct questions nor was he capable of changing the subject as Acosta came back with follow up upon follow up. It was… Continue reading “White Nationalist Stephen Miller rants at CNN reporter” →

Breitbart editor: The goal is the ‘full destruction and elimination of the entire mainstream media’

Steve Bannon Meme

Right Wing Watch reports that at this week’s Phyllis Schlafly Collegians D.C. Summit, Breitbart’s D.C. political editor Matt Boyle boasted that his publication’s goal is to completely destroy and eliminate the “mainstream media,” leaving Breitbart and other right wing sites as the only news sources.

“The goal eventually is the full destruction and elimination of the entire mainstream media,” Boyle said. “We envision a day where CNN is no longer in business; we envision a day where The New York Times closes its doors. I think that day is possible, I think that we can get there.”

“But when that happens,” he added, “the public still needs an information stream. And again, as much as we love Trump’s Twitter account, as much as we love the White House press releases and briefings and all that, there needs to be an independent and strong media in the United States, and that’s where we come in.”

I can’t tell you how weird it is, to have been tracking these right-wing extremists like the Mercers (who fund Breitbart) for so long, and to see their dreams being realized under Trump. And when people like me wrote about it, we were called “paranoid” and “shills.”
