#Left wins big in #France

the media fails us so badly: fills us with doubt, amplifies fascist plutocrat bs

and then people do the right thing anyways

"The first projections say #French #leftists have won most seats in legislative elections. The surprise projections put President Emmanuel #Macron’s #centrist alliance in second and the #farright in third."

Congratulations France!

sorry #LePen, you quisling

if the left shows up to vote, and sticks together, we win

France election highlights: Leftists win most seats, but no party claims majority

A leftist coalition, the New Popular Front, has won the most seats in the 2024 French legislative election, beating back a far-right surge but failing to win a majority.

Fantastic news! One step closer to putin's suicide in the bunker.
@michalz00 @benroyce
Yeah, voters in France cracked that window open a little farther for Putin today!
@GreenFire @benroyce
Yeah, he can't win without allies in Europe. He lost Poland, UK and now France. He is almost done. We're counting on you USA ;)
@michalz00 @benroyce
Americans can be slow to help and you can be assured that we'll be arrogant about it when we do, but we're going to help out like we should once again this November and beat these fascists back once again.

From the Foreword by #KevinRoberts of #HeritageFoundation

>> low-income communities are drowning in… government dependence

He wants #Potus47 to help them.

#Project2025RallyingCry

Foreword by #KevinRoberts of #HeritageFoundation has 4 promises

>> 1. PROTECT OUR CHILDREN: Federal power must be wielded to… rescue America’s kids from familial breakdown.

Says >> "#Left is threatening tax-exempt status of churches…", then links it to sexual orientation & gender identity #SOGI, #DEI, pornography, & schools choice

>> Federal policy cannot allow this industrial-scale child abuse to continue

He wants a #NannyState.

#Project2025RallyingCry

After admitting this is an "Agenda prepared BY and FOR Conservatives" (not BY Americans FOR Americans), Promise 2 is to Dismantle the Administrative State — ALL of the federal government’s departments, agencies, and millions of employees.

He conflates the administrative work that is the prerogative of Executive, and law enactment that is the prerogative of Legislative — Then makes the clever leap from #SmallGovernment to #NoGovernment.

⬆️ @greenfire @michalz00 @benroyce

#Project2025RallyingCry

Promise 3 is to Defend Our Sovereignty Against Global Threats.

This one is the easiest to tear apart, for it is THEIR chosen leader #DonaldJTrump who has compromised our nation's sovereignty and security by stealing our most closely guarded secrets and sharing or selling them to enemy states, while #HeritageFoundation and the entire #GOP remain firmly committed to a 2nd #Trump presidency FULLY AWARE how he will compromise our security.

Promise 4 is to Secure Our God-Givem Individual Right to Enjoy The Blessings of Liberty

Says that “all men are created equal”.

Women, on the other hand, need not enjoy the blessings of liberty 🙄

And that's just the Foreword by #KevinRoberts, PhD, who, on the 4th of July, augured the #SecondAmericanRevolution under threat of #bloodshed

⬆️ #Project2025RallyingCry

#Revanchist #Russia threatens to wipe #Ukraine off the map. #Iran’s #AxisOfResistance wants to do the same to #Israel. #China wants #Taiwan. #NorthKorea is threatening neighbors and helping other rogue states. The planet is literally burning.

But the “greatest threats” to America, according to #Project2025, are mask and vaccine mandates, keeping Americans from driving gas cars or using gas stoves, or acknowledging gender fluidity.

These clowns 🤡 want to rule America.

⬆️ #Project2025RallyingCry

Having identified the :”greatest threats” facing America, #Project2025 lays out the president’s tasks — limit, control, & direct, but not LEAD.

Noting that the Constitution vests power in the executive, #Project2025Clowns #cherryPick how she is held accountable. No impeachment. No criminal prosecution. Only elections.

And THEN, they adib and extend what the Constitution says about executive power.

It’s the President’s own agenda (they emphasize) that should matter!

⬆️ #Project2025RallyingCry

Acc to #Project2025 it’s the President’s OWN agenda that matters.

The bureaucracy has no #moralAuthority and exists to THWART the new president’s NEW APPOINTEES and agenda. Note the slow creep to include NEW appointees because existing ones are allegedly underworked, overcompensated, and unaccountable — ALL grounds for #PersonnelAction.

Extending #Nazi philosophy to rid of disabled, they want to take control of the ENTIRE federal government #HumanResources apparatus

⬆️ #Project2025RallyingCry

Pause here and read the previous 2 posts together.

A president unaccountable via #impeachment or #criminalProsecution wants UNFETTERED power to fire any or ALL existing federal government EMPLOYEES (not just agencies) and replace them with LOYALISTS.

In other words, an election is not just to usher in a new president and a new cabinet, but sanctions a wholesale replacement of millions of Americans.

How’s that NOT a #rallyingCry for #Democrats, including #FarLeft?

⬆️ #Project2025RallyingCry

After seeking unprecedented and unfettered powers for the president to smother #HumanResources of the ENTIRE federal government, #Project2025 seeks to extend those powers to the NEW UNELECTED political appointees so they can “overcome” the allegedly “obstructionist” HR departments — Naked force & #fascism built into the Plan

Note the creep from what Americans want…to president’s OWN ”agenda”…to president’s “desires”…to president’s “intent”…to power for unelected hacks

⬆️ #Project2025RallyingCry

The previous post is a pivotal one in this thread, for it is here that the foundations of #fascism are laid.

>> Note the creep from what Americans want…to president’s OWN “agenda”…to president’s “desires”…to president’s “intent”…to power for unelected hacks

To rally against #Project2025, we need a simple unified vocabulary for consistent soundbites without unnecessary terms.

Because #Trump’s #agenda is same as #intent, consistently start with “Trump intends to…”

⬆️ #Project2025RallyingCry

After the specious arguments above, and with #SupremeCourt #PresidentialImmunity already in the books, the coup de grâce for #Project2025 is shamelessly asking for a #WhiteHouse Counsel who will “protect” the #UnitaryExecutive from ALL 3 branches of government, INCLUDING HIS OWN — the exact opposite of upholding the #USConstitution.

⬆️ #Project2025RallyingCry

Cut out all the projection by #Project2025 and replace the last line with:

“Nothing less than the survival of a corrupt president of America is at stake.”

⬆️ #Project2025RallyingCry

#Project2025 is a craftily-worded blueprint for 🔥🔥🔥 full-bore #fascism 🔥🔥🔥 where the president is not accountable by #impeachment in #Congress, nor by #criminalProsecution in #SupremeCourt, has unfettered powers to replace millions of American workers with OWN loyalists, who have authority they MUST NOT CEDE, answerable ONLY to the president, and carry out his and only his intent, whether it’s running trains for colored, #disabled, #LGBT,… to #gasChambers or wherever.

#TrumpIntendsTo run the American Presidency as a #RealityTV show like #TheApprentice

⬆️ #Project2025RallyingCry

#Trump intends to appoint #Citizens who “serve at the pleasure of the president” to carry out his most “demanding” orders

The words “citizens” and “noble” are evocative of pre-revolutionary #France. It is not clear yet if he “intends” to confer #nobility on his chosen appointees who have displayed both #loyalty and #execution, while he goes out to #golf in the limited number of daylight hours.

⬆️ #Project2025RallyingCry

#Trump intends to erase any distinction between his #agenda and those of his #appointees.

#Trump intends to hold the door wide-open for #venalPublicOffice.

#Trump intends to shield ALL decisions and actions of his loyalists behind “official acts”

There is NO WAY that the #SupremeCourt #PresidentialImmunity decision and the exemption from #CorruptionLaw for tips, gifts, and payments for #officialActs was NOT informed by #Project2025

⬆️ #Project2025RallyingCry

#Trump intends to hire a #ChiefOfStaff that is “truly first among equals”

#Trump intends to funnel his #campaignPromises and fantasies through his Chief of Staff.

#Trump intends to throw his Chief of Staff under the bus should CoS become inconvenient.

#Trump intends to HIDE corrupt or dangerous #economicPolicy, #domesticPolicy, and #nationalSecurity issues even from his Chief of Staff

⬆️ #Project2025RallyingCry

>> #Trump intends to bypass his ChiefOfStaff for particular tasks & their #execution.

#Trump intends to appoint 🔥🔥🔥 at least TWO Chiefs of Staff 🔥🔥🔥, one official and the others unofficial.

If the official one is thrown under a bus or pushed out of a window, one of the others can become official, and a new unofficial one would be appointed in his place.

#Diabolical.

⬆️ #Project2025RallyingCry

>> #TrumpIntendsTo appoint 🔥🔥🔥 at least TWO Chiefs of Staff 🔥🔥🔥, one official and the others unofficial.

Here’s what a #diabolical #MusicalChairs game to pick the winner for #Trump’s #ChiefOfStaff under #Project2025 might look like.

The “winner” is decided in the very first round.

The one who FAILS to grab a chair is the #OfficialChiefOfStaff. All others are unofficial chiefs of staff until the next round.

I see #KashPatel 😂

Nothing I’ve read in the #Project2025 Playbook so far (barely 10%) has alarmed me more than the section on the #NationalSecurityCouncil #NSC.

No one should forget what #Trump did with #Putin in #Helsinki in 2018, meeting in private, one-on-one, away from the scrutiny of anybody.

#TrumpIntendsTo delete all present NSC staff not aligned with his agenda on Day1 and replace them with partisan hacks.

#TrumpIntendsTo give #JuniorPartner HUGE leverage over #China. No Joke

⬆️ #Project2025RallyingCry

This post ➡️ https://mastodon.social/@rameshgupta/111665949432191327 is from last year but has renewed significance in light of #NSC changes that #TrumpIntendsTo implement under #Project2025.

The question of what Trump would do to #NATO and #Ukraine if #Russia offers him a #bribe is no more hypothetical than a second Trump presidency.
