Semi-formal talk after opening comments on (a) the size and beauty of the No Kings Day protests, (b) the importance of financially supporting this Substack, and (c) the rising possibility of getting rid of the fascist Trump tumor on humanity….
(The text below and my spoken word above are not quite identical…close but not 100%. I added some key content in the spoken version. You can also read a Substack transcript of the spoken version here. The spoken is better than the written in my opinion.)
4:55: The World’s Leading Fascist (WLF) and “most dangerous criminal in human history” Donald “Take Down the Metal Detectors” Trump failed to address the shootings of two top Democratic Party Minnesota legislators during a deranged Truth Social post last night. As Minnesota’s governor Tim Walz announced the arrest of the fascist assassin, the WLF Donald Trump chose instead to rant in support of his racist, xenophobic-nationalist war of terror on immigrants. He elected instead to express contempt for the supposedly Marxist Democratic Party and to inveigh against the supposed menace posed by transgender athletes.
“These Radical Left Democrats,” the WLF wrote, “are sick of mind, hate our Country, and actually want to destroy our Inner Cities — There is something wrong with them.”
“That,” the WLF added, “is why they believe in Open Borders, Transgender for Everybody, and Men playing in Women’s Sports — And that is why I want ICE, Border Patrol, and our Great and Patriotic Law Enforcement Officers, to FOCUS on our crime ridden and deadly Inner Cities, and those places where Sanctuary Cities play such a big role.”
The WLF further opined that his racist campaign “to detain and deport Illegal Aliens” would be augmented despite supposedly violent protest and the giant “No Kings” protests that took place across the country two days ago.
Never mind that the WLF knows very well that most of the people being swept up in his mass racially profiled deportation campaign are hard-working people vital to the US economy. Many of them are being detained simply because of the color of their skin and other identifiers of them as Latinos and Latinas.
In other words, the WLF doubled down on precisely the sort of arch-inflammatory Hitlerian language that helped poison the heart and mind of the Minnesota assassin – a 57-year-old white male Trumpist who had a kill list loaded with Democratic legislators and abortion rights advocates. Minnesota State Police found "No Kings" protest-flyers in the killer’s car. But for his mishaps in the early morning hours of June 14, the killer might well have tried to shoot up the No Kings protests in Minneapolis.
And by the way it is a sign of the great courage and spirit of the Minneapolis and St. Paul rallygoers that they protested and marched even as they knew the fascist assassin was still on the loose.
The WLF calling moderate bourgeois politicians “radical leftists” who are out to ruin US cities because those politicians supposedly “hate” America is the President of the United States advancing classic neo-Nazi language that cannot help but foment violence against decent people who don’t want to live in a fascist Amerika.
The WLF has naturally had nothing to say about attacks made on No Kings protesters by people whose hearts and minds are contaminated by the hateful and eliminationist far-right rhetoric he has done so much to propagate and normalize over the last decade (yesterday was the tenth anniversary of his notorious trip down the escalator to announce his cancerous bid for the US presidency).
A fascist tried to run No Kings protesters down with his car in Virginia. A fascist tried to open fire on the No Kings protest in Salt Lake City with an AR-15, causing a shooting that killed one peaceful protester. Los Angeles city and county police attacked No Kings rallygoers with tear gas, stun grenades and “non-lethal” rubber bullets – this even as those rallygoers chanted “peaceful protest, peaceful protest.”
None of that received any condemnation from the World’s Leading Fascist in his online rant last night.
The Minnesota murders have sparked widespread media discussion of the need to end political violence in America, with talking heads and experts rightly connecting the killings to earlier incidents like the murder of the antiracist Heather Heyer by a fascist in Charlottesville, Virginia in 2017, the shooting of former US House member Gabby Giffords by a fascist gunman in Arizona in 2012, the hammer attack on the US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s husband by a Trumpist-fascist in 2022, the fascist plot to kidnap Michigan’s Democratic governor in 2020, and of course the giant fascist assault on the US Capitol on January 6.
Such political violence is in danger of becoming normalized, according to numerous experts on cable news. And this, they say, must be stopped.
Well, of course it must, but here’s something the talking heads can’t bring themselves to say: it won’t stop without, for starters, the removal of the hate-spewing Hitler admirer and wannabe fascist strongman-for-life Donald “Poisoning Our Blood” Trump, the WLF, from the most powerful position on the planet. As long as the malignant tumor that is Trump is permitted to dwell atop the American state, political violence will have a great champion and instigator atop the United States. The malevolent hatemonger must go now
