A conservative plan forĀ Donald TrumpāsĀ potential transition into the presidency calls for dozens of prisoners to be executed, according to HuffPost. An 887-page plan by Project 2025, led by the ultra-conservative Heritage Foundation, says that if elected, Trump should make a concerted effort to execute the remaining 40 prisoners on death row. The sectionās author, attorney Gene Hamilton, advised that Trump ādo everything possible to obtain finalityā on the current list of people until Congress forces them to stop. Hamilton is the vice president ofĀ America Legal First, a group of former Trump lawyers bent on attacking āwokeā companies, headed by Stephen Miller. Trumpās approach to theĀ death penaltyĀ stands in stark contrast to that of PresidentĀ Joe Biden, who has openly opposed theĀ death penalty, but doneĀ littleĀ to move forward legislation to reform or abolish the practice since entering office.
For those of you not in the know Project 2025 is Republicans plan to turn the USA into an authoritarian state.
Yeah, itās a fucking joke to assume that guns are a hedge against fascism. Theyāll take your guns or shoot you. Maybe thereās some protection in being an organised group in the moment, but if they want to get you theyāll get you.
Ruby ridge.
Whilst members of the Weaver family were illegally killed by the government at Ruby Ridge, whatās less known is that Randy Weaver was hanging out with people from the Aryan Nation movement, and a believer in the Posse Comitatus theory of law.
It was White Nationalists that later erased these facts to promote the Weaverās story as they (rightly) believed it would inspire others into their life style.
Timothy McVeigh cited the story as one of the reasons for his bombing of a federal government building and its daycare centre.

Oh I certainly wasnāt defending him or the white supremacist community he was a part of.
I was also tempted to mention Wako and the Davidians.
My point was, no matter how many guns you have, the machine will always win in a gun fight.
