“Fascist to the Core”

Trump appointed General Mark Milley to the Joint Chiefs of Staff.  Mark Milley was the nation’s highest-ranking military officer and the primary military advisor to the president, the secretary of defense, and the National Security Council.

He describes former and twice-impeached President Trump”

“He is the most dangerous person ever. I had suspicions when I talked to you about his mental decline and so forth, but now I realize he’s a total fascist. He is now the most dangerous person to this country…a fascist to the core.” 

Trump will stack the Justice Department with loyalists to prosecute political enemies, including in the corporate world. Republican-led investigations into tech companies, accusing them of anti-conservative bias, would likely intensify.

Trump has refused another debate with Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris. Even on Fox.

He backed out of an interview with 60 Minutes that every other Presidential candidate has done since 1968.

He has refused to release tax returns or a medical report although his mental acuity is a topic of concern as he rambles through speeches and has delusional speeches untethered from reality.

“We don’t take an oath a king or queen or a tyrant or dictator. We don’t take an oath to a wannabe dictator. We don’t take an oath to an individual. We take an oath to the Constitution,” Milley said during the ceremony at Joint Base Myer-Henderson Hall.

Meanwhile, Trump supporters reek havoc. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) advised federal emergency workers to evacuate Rutherford County, North Carolina, which was hit hard by Hurricane Helene. Safety issues arose after Trump and MAGA Republicans spread the false rumor that federal agents are forcing people off their land to start lithium mining projects.

The alert came after the U.S. Forest Service sent an email to federal responders saying that National Guard troops had encountered armed MAGA militia groups saying they were “hunting FEMA.” FEMA officials will no longer go door-to-door with disaster assistance, but instead will stay in fixed locations.

Now, Trump is insulting the workers of South Carolina. Trump dissed South Carolina autoworkers during his sit-down with Bloomberg News at the Economic Club of Chicago:

“They don’t build cars,” he said. “They take ’em out of a box, and they assemble them. We could have our child do it.”
