AnarchoNinaAnalyzes<p>Of course, rigging elections is difficult, and in the near term the political opposition that's already in office will remain a thorn in the side of even the most prepared dictator. What a good reactionary autocracy needs is the removal of political figures who oppose the regime from government entirely; which is probably why Trump took to Truth Social a few days ago to propose the Republican Party literally remove Democrats trying to impeach him from Congress. </p><p><a href="https://archive.ph/fRhUj" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">archive.ph/fRhUj</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p>Trump Suggests Republicans Start Expelling Dems From Congress</p><p>"President Donald Trump suggested that congressional Republicans should expel Democratic lawmakers from Congress in response to a so-far small impeachment push that has not been endorsed by party leadership. </p><p>In a lengthy Truth Social post published late Thursday night, the president wrote: “The Democrats are really out of control. They have lost everything, especially their minds! These Radical Left Lunatics are into the ‘Impeachment thing’ again. They have already got two ‘No Name,’ little respected Congressmen, total Whackjobs both, throwing the ‘Impeachment’ of DONALD J. TRUMP around.<br> <br>“The Republicans should start to think about expelling them from Congress for all of the crimes that they have committed, especially around Election time(s),” Trump continued, calling Democrats “very dishonest people that won’t let our Country heal” and “total LOWLIFES, who hate our Country, and everything it stands for."</p><p>“Perhaps we should start playing this game on them, and expel Democrats for the many crimes that they have committed,” the president wrote."</p><p>One of the things I wasn't entirely prepared for about the slide into fascist dictatorship under the second coming of Trump, was the juxtaposition of the gravely serious threat the Keltpo Kaiser's activities represent to American society, and the utterly asinine ways Trumpworld and even the larger media industry that covers US politics will talk about and analyze those threats; this is one of those stories. In this Rolling Stone piece for example, the focus is on pointing out that Trump is overreacting to a couple of lone wolf impeachment attempts because the Democratic Party does not in fact support impeaching Downmarket Mussolini on the leadership level. Uh, sure; whatever?</p><p>The fact is the Democratic Party *should* be dead serious about impeaching Trump because he's literally a lawless fascist who is governing by nazi conspiracy theories, and has set the country on the path towards a Christian Nationalist dictatorship in direct violation of so many laws and constitutional amendments I don't have time to list them all here. If ever the concept of impeachment had a purpose in American government, it would be to remove a president like Trump here in his second term; so whether or not Trump is lying about the Democratic Party being united in removing him is really not the fucking point here. Furthermore asking the fascist GOP to use its power to illegally expel opposition party members from Congress because they're using the completely legitimate authority granted to them to bring forth articles of impeachment against a president who is openly violating his oaths and American law, is textbook one-party state fascist regime bullshit. As such Trump musing about it on his private social media site is a major threat to American democratic society no matter how right, or wrong he is, about how much the Democrats oppose him; which is literally their job in the American system of government, even if you and I can both probably acknowledge that they suck at that job. </p><p>Of course the article does point out that Trump's inference that Democrats have committed "many crimes" in relation to attempts to remove him from office or prosecute him for completely legitimate crimes he actually committed, is absolute nonsense as far as we know. The truth however is that I don't really think Trump's tirade has anything to do with what the Democratic Party is, or isn't doing to impeach him at all. I think Trump, a man disturbingly obsessed with his own publicity, has clearly seen recent polling showing a slim majority of Americans as a whole favor impeaching him for the crimes and violations he's already committed in his second term. Yes the Klepto Kaiser is trying to criminalize his opposition, yes he's trying to make America a functional one party state; but I think Trump is also sending the message that if he's willing to go after Democrats in Congress for talking about impeaching him, anyone else bringing up the subject might be next. </p><p><a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Fascism</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Impeachment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Impeachment</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/GOP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GOP</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/DemocraticParty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DemocraticParty</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/USPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USPol</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Dictatorship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Dictatorship</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/OnePartyState" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OnePartyState</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Nazis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Nazis</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/IdeologicalPolicing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>IdeologicalPolicing</span></a></p>

AnarchoNinaAnalyzes<p>In what would likely be a major scandal under any other administration, but feels a bit like a "well duh" moment after the first 100 days of the Trumpenreich's fascist rule, recent polling indicates that a majority of American voters now support impeaching President Trump a third time.</p><p><a href="https://www.commondreams.org/news/trump-impeachment-2025" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">commondreams.org/news/trump-im</span><span class="invisible">peachment-2025</span></a></p><p>Majority of US Voters Support Third Trump Impeachment: Poll</p><p>"Specifically, a polling memo published Friday by ASO Communications and Research Collaborative shows that just a few months into Trump's return to the White House, 52% of likely voters across the ideological spectrum somewhat or strongly support impeaching him—including 84% of Democrats, 55% of Independents, and even 20% of his fellow Republicans."</p><p>While I don't believe there's any amount of polling that will make the Trump regime surrender, and I remain doubtful a fascist GOP is likely to risk reprisal from Trump's hardcore nazi base in the party to impeach Der Leader, I still think it's pretty relevant that experiencing the reality of Trump's authoritarianism in action is driving a majority of Americans to desire his removal from office. </p><p>Much of Trump's presumed authority to install himself as a dictator comes from the regime's invocation of a popular mandate to transform America into a white ethnostate, as well as a complicit media's refusal to address a clear lack of that mandate while they focus on "will he or won't he" coverage of Trump's obviously fascist activities. As more and more evidence comes in that the regime's Christian Nationalist agenda is in fact not popular, and Americans do not believe Trump has the authority to enact it, it's going to become harder and harder for both the regime and collaborators in the mainstream establishment to keep pretending there might be a veneer of legality or popular support behind all the government's nazi bullshit. </p><p>In the end, I'm pretty sure there's no way to topple the Trump regime that doesn't involve putting millions of people in the street to actively disrupt the police state and make it impossible for the collaborator class to profit from all that fascism. By that same measure however, I don't think Americans are going to rise up and stop their fascist government until they're completely sure there are no easier options for ending Trump's reign of tyranny and they believe the majority of people in this country are ready to rise up with them. In my opinion, polls like this one help shatter the fascists' false projection of invincibility, and bring us closer to that uprising; and as such that makes these numbers a welcome sight for my exhausted eyes at least.</p><p><a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Fascism</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/USPolitics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USPolitics</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Impeachment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Impeachment</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Polling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Polling</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/AntiTrumpProtests" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AntiTrumpProtests</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/GOP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GOP</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/RepublicanParty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RepublicanParty</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/AlGreen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AlGreen</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/ShriThanedar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ShriThanedar</span></a></p>
