Are my taxes paying for this?
Hereās a little throw back to the 80s with Der Kommissar:
Check out Putin in video: He canāt even have fun at Paul McCartney concert.
Wowā¦paranoid much? They canāt take the time to actually install people in the agencies to WORK but by God, they have their ātrackersā in place. MAGAā¦um yeah.
āHow very Gestapo of youā you mean.
(Fascism and Leninism are two sides of the same coin.)
Itās the tracking poll, and it is more accurate than a three-day poll would be because it shows the pattern over time.
The base support dispite policy that harms them and their neighbors seems to confirm the cult leadership of Trump. Downright scary!
What scares me the MOST about this is collective shrug by the MSM when they heard about it.
They just donāt give a shit anymore.
This is the most outrageous form of autocratic āthought policeā I can think of.
It is nothing less than instituting āpolitical commissarsā in the government to enforce āpersonal loyalty to Dear Leader Trumpā, yet the MSM doesnāt even raise a peep about it.
We are well and truly Fucked people.
" [ā¦] an influential coterie of senior aides installed by the White House who are charged ā above all ā with monitoring the secretariesā loyalty"
Jr. Nazis in training.
It is all of a piece with the requests during the transition for the names of individuals in certain agencies that were working on programs that the Drumpfies oppose.
This is the logical conclusion of the if-youāre-not-with-us-youāre-against-us doctrine.
I have a record that McCartney recorded and released in the Soviet Union.
Good piece of trivia, because very few people besides big audiophiles, have ever heard it.
āSie willt stricken zee regulations and qvuestion nussing!!!ā
But the Presidentās agenda is whatever he retweeted from Breitbart last Saturday, from the comfort of his gold plated toilet. Even for a loyal worker bee, it would be impossible to keep up.
Talk to some of them and you will find out that ALL they care about is āREVENGEā upon āThe Otherā that they blame for everything bad that has ever happened to them.
They donāt care what happens to them as long as āThose Peopleā are punished loudly and hard. If they lose everything, well, that is āGods Willā. At the same time, they have āFaithā that Trump will āsave themā because he is āsuch a good businessmanā (with a very, VERY strong subtext of āBut he is WHITE. He wonāt hurt US!ā
I am not kidding about this. Talk to them (I have) it is downright scary what they think about Trump and āThose Peopleā.
The more rural and isolated the town is, the stronger these feelings.
It is not even at the level of critical thought. It is JUST āfeelingsā about it. They ābelieveā that he will āsave themā and punish āThose Peopleā.
This is what we are up against. You cannot even have a conversation about it. They get very, VERY angry very fast if you try to bring up any facts about what the Trump Administration is doing. They shout that it is all āFAKE NEWSā like it is a mantra that will dispell the āevil Libārul spiritsā.
Scary stuff.
It shows that deep, deep down they have strong misgivings about Trump but cannot let themselves voice it out loud because to do so would result in them being ākicked out of the Tribeā that they rely upon for moral support.
Instead, we have a personality disorder.
Will the Amerikan Gestapo be wearing brown or black uniforms?
At the moment, it matches the March 16-18 Gallup poll as reported on 538.
Of course, you are right, and thereās a lot of precedent for doing exactly that. In one way or another, every administration does this. Generally, that person is the agencyās top legal officer, because all key decisions have to go through the GC on their way to the Secretary. In some adminstrations, that role has been fulfilled by the Deputy Secretary or the Executive Assistant to the Secretary. In any case, any cabinet member worth his salt knows exactly how to freeze out the political commissar sent over by the White House.
You really canāt blame Trump for this. There is something seriously wrong with him. His craziness has taken over. Iām sure his has a second voice in his head that keeps telling him to behave, but his is unable to.
