Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | The Washington Post Says Trump Will be a Dictator, and Runs an Illustration of the Assassinated Dictator Julius Caesar; Matt Gaetz Charges Them With Actively Inciting AssassinationBefore getting into this story, I have a bone to pick with you boneheads. Yesterday, I wrote two posts about Kevin McCarthy leaving his post early. I wrote as if I believed that the new Congress would be seated in January, so that he would only be leaving us short-handed for a couple of weeks before the new Congress was sworn in. In other words, I was thinking that he was saying he'd leave in 2024. Or that it currently was 2024. I thought that he was only talking about leaving a couple of weeks early before the new Congress was seated on January 8th or whenever it will be seated. In 2025, that is. Hey, look, I saw Godzilla Minus Zero in a reasonably full house and I picked up a bug. I'm sick. Anyway, looking back, I remember now that some commenters did correctly say "He's leaving early, what does it matter if he leaves one week or the next," but none of you dum-dums were smart enough to pick up on the fact that I was being very very stupid and I was completely out-to-lunch about what year we were talking about. Do none of you read me? How am I going to maintain this blog if none of you bother reading me closely enough to realize I've gotten the freakin' year wrong? I can't count on myself to catch these errors; I count on you. You've let me down. I can't do this alone people. Do better. #DoBetter. Anyway, this asshole is not leaving in December 2024 as I bizarrely thought he was, but this year, leaving his position more than a year early, not a couple of weeks early. So, as a commenter alluded, what does it matter if he leaves on December 28th or December 7th? (Note, in my Lost Time thinking, I thought we were talking about a short 8 or ten day gap between his leaving and the seating of the next Congress versus a month-long gap -- more of a substantial change. But my head is filled with mucous and it sloshes when I stand up.) Anyway. As Emily Latella said: Never mind. Now on to this new low from the media. You will surely remember the Obama years when the leftwing Enemy of the People media constantly castigated all right-leaning critics of Obama that we must not be too "strident" in our criticism of Obama, lest we encourage a hypothetical assassin. We would have to modify our political speech and self-censor and refrain from making arguments that were too compelling lest we even slightly increase the very small chances that someone would try to kill The First Gay President. Well, here's Robert Kagan at the official Establishment/Deep State newsletter the Washington Post declaring that Trump will become a dictator with an accompanying illustration of Julius Caesar, a dictator who was, quite famously, successfully assassinated. And by ranking politicos and Deep State operatives, to boot.![]() Far-right Florida Rep Matt Gaetz has claimed that the press is "green-lighting" the assassination of former President Donald Trump by reporting on what a second Trump term would look like.Anyone who is not far-left is now "far-right." Fucking Jon Lovitz and Rob Schneider are now "far-right." The term is a meaningless insult. On Monday, Mr Gaetz tweeted "They're obviously green-lighting assassination" and included a screenshot from a Washington Post op-ed by Post Opinions contributing editor Robert Kagan bearing the headline "A Trump dictatorship is increasingly inevitable. We should stop pretending". Responding to Mr Gaetz, Condé Nast Legal Affairs Editor Luke Zaleski noted that "There is nothing you can say or do to confront Maga gaslighting that won't be met with more MAGA gaslighting". "They'll say anything to make themselves the victim and hero in everything. And there is nothing you can say to do anything about it. That is the MAGA gaslighting paradox," he added.LOL. Leftwing SJWs accusing others of playing the hero while crying victim. We are demanding that you play by the same rules you impose on others. If "stochastic terrorism" is a real thing -- and you tell us constantly that it is -- then you are required to obey your own rules and tone down your own rhetoric to avoid "stochastically" setting off a random killer with a mental hair-trigger. The image for the op-ed was a split image with the top being the head of a statue of Roman dictator Julius Ceaser, who was assassinated in 44BC, and the bottom being the face of Mr Trump.Subtle. That's because all of these prosecutions are bullshit. Three are are just based on completely made-up "Trump Only" non-laws, and one -- the documents case -- while based on actual law, has been repeatedly unprosecuted in the cases of Hillary Clinton and now Joe Biden. "Indicting Trump for trying to overthrow the government will prove akin to indicting Caesar for crossing the Rubicon, and just as effective. Like Caesar, Trump wields a clout that transcends the laws and institutions of government, based on the unswerving personal loyalty of his army of followers," he adds.When did he try to "overthrow the government"? Which of the fake prosecutions is about that? Not even the Fani Willis sham prosecution is about "overthrowing the government." The leftwing legacy media which demands censorship and bankrupting advertising boycotts for anyone outside the leftwing claque affords themselves so much latitude in just making up fake facts to fit their rhetoric.

You've let me down. I can't do this alone people. Do better. #DoBetter. ++++ So, I did notice, but I rejected it. It was too far out of bounds, so I assumed I was wrong. For an analogy, I once went to the Evergreen International Aviation museum outside of Portland. They have the Spruce Goose there, and I wanted to see it (and the other awesome shit they have there). I got the museum with a friend and we were looking at the airplanes and everything. It was cool. I turned to him and said, "where is the Spruce Goose?" He started laughing and replied, "uhh, you're standing under its wing right now." I did a double-take, then I saw it in all its stupendous scale. It was so big I filtered it out. I was surrounded by comprehensible stuff I could grok like other airplanes. The Spruce Goose is so huge that I literally didn't see it.

Gaetz fights, when everyone else says "no comment" or "Not the hill to die on." He fights, and in the case of McCarthy, he won. Who else is calling out the WaPo for this idiotic story? They're all too busy collecting Christmas Cash from their Corporate Donors. and the argument that says " But Gaetz says mean things!" just doesn't cut it with me.

Trump isn't close to doing that. Nobody else is either, and the Party/State aren't even close to needing that option... As long as things continue apace, they won't need to use it until it's too late for them to use it. Hell, they'll have to use the Kirov Option on their own guy, before they have to assassinate a controlled-opposition leader.

Gaetz fights, when everyone else says "no comment" or "Not the hill to die on." He fights, and in the case of McCarthy, he won. Who else is calling out the WaPo for this idiotic story? They're all too busy collecting Christmas Cash from their Corporate Donors.

Willowed...again:
Why is "DINK" becoming a thing again? Toxic people on the internet have been calling themselves "ChildFree" for several years now. They go well beyond simply not having or wanting to have kids. They complain bitterly if they're inconvenienced in the slightest by anyone else's kids. They complain bitterly if anyone asks them if they want to have kids. They come up with all sorts of vile names for children like "crotch fruit." They are as bad as vegans when it comes to telling everyone how much amazing free time, extra money, and how great their child free life is. Some people online decided not to use their preferred nomenclature of ChildFree and instead resurrected the term, "DINK." Lots of people commented. That's why you're seeing "DINK" again.

The Trump Dictatorship Goes on Autopilot. The MAGA world is making all the same fascist threats it did the last time around—and the media is still twiddling its thumbs.
Trump has stepped up his vows to wreak retribution on a vast array of MAGA nation enemies, branding them “vermin” and marking them out for elimination. Plans to stock the federal workforce with fawning Trump loyalists are a centerpiece of plans for a Trump second term, while a new host of vicious border-internment proposals are also taking shape in MAGA land. Kash Patel...appeared on former Trump campaign manager Steve Bannon’s War Room podcast to detail a classic fascist agenda item: jailing and harassing journalists. “Yes, we’re going to come after the people in the media who lied about American citizens, who helped Joe Biden rig presidential elections. Whether it’s criminally or civilly, we’ll figure that out. But yeah, we’re putting you all on notice, and Steve, this is why they hate us. This is why we’re tyrannical. This is why we’re dictators. Because we’re actually going to use the Constitution to prosecute them for crimes they said we have always been guilty of but never have.” Posted by: Intercepted The Nation Transmissions brought by the Intrepid AoS Liaison at December 07, 2023 01:30 PM (JCZqz) 129

"Here are some of the ifs and whens surrounding a special election: If McCarthy resigns after the filing deadline but before the beginning of 2024, Newsom gets up to 14 days after the seat is vacated to call a special election. The special election must be on a Tuesday 126 to 140 days after the declaration. The special election would have its own primary, nine or 10 weeks prior, which could put it on the March 5 primary ballot. Again, it comes down to when McCarthy resigns. If he waits until January, Newsom gets to decide. If a seat is vacated during the final year of a term (which 2024 is), then no special election is required, Alex Stack, a spokesman for Newsom, said. Candidates must decide whether they will compete in both the special election — if there is one — and the regularly scheduled elections next year. They do not have to run in both. When Nunes left, Republican Connie Conway, a former assemblywoman, won the special election and served for just six months." Posted by: runner at December 07, 2023 01:31 PM (V13WU) 135

I dunno. Did Trump astroturf a protest that was used as a pretext to lock up political opponents, then use lawfare and a subversion of the justice system to deprive them of rights? Has he used the law enforcement auspices of the state to surveil, pursue and punish disfavored political groups who don't agree with the ruling party? Has he used the intelligence agencies to gather information on American citizens, target their social media accounts and engaged in state sponsored and controlled censorship of opinions Democrats didn't agree with? Has he engaged in widespread efforts to undermine the electoral system? Turned our military into a subservient political group and destroyed its ethos? How about advocated for state sponsored political campaign run via the education system and solely designed to destroy our children and parental rights? Ruined our energy security? Destroyed our economy by using it as a political piggy bank?

Gaetz' WaPo tweet is an example of him fighting for us in the way that others aren't doing. That's not what Ace has a problem with. His tweet "McLeavin" after McCarthy announced resignation was just unnecessary. He had already won that fight. We're allowed to both appreciate Gaetz fighting for us when others aren't but also disapprove of him being needlessly antagonistic ino ther contexts.

Ah yes, Robert Kagan. He's one of those guys that labels himself "conservative" while espousing as much liberal doctrine as his lungs will allow.
His primary political concern is making sure that we continue to be embroiled in endless wars. I'm sure he's getting money from Raytheon in some fashion. Posted by: The ARC of History! at December 07, 2023 01:36 PM (YAtuc) 173
But then, so is one income with kids. Or no income with kids. The majority of people need family formation for their own individual fulfillment.
If that's not you? Great. Good for you. But don't lie about it to everyone else. right, but they need the validation they gain by hectoring people who live differently. they need this constantly - like other groups who clearly are feeling some psychological pain from their choices - to externally validate something that despite their rationalizations still is bothering them subconsciously.

Trump is going to be a dictator, because otherwise, our treasonous and seditious undermining of everything he tries to do in office would just be treason and sedition. But we're brave freedom fighters, not evil traitors and sedit-ors. Ergo Trump is trying to be a dictator. QED.

I know people who say Trump's authoritarian. I asked one yesterday if Puddinhead "forgiving" $138B in student loan debt, in spite of the fact that SCOTUS has ruled it unconstitutional, is authoritarian.
Since the SC and Congress both said no...I wonder what would happen if say a President Trump had his DOJ tried to revocover the money from Biden...personally. If Biden say took a million dollars intended for White House maintenance and gave it to his friends and family the case would be clear to recover it from him right? Now...how is this different from that? Posted by: 18-1 at December 07, 2023 01:38 PM (XqcwY) 192

The reason McCarthy is leaving so quickly is painfully obvious: first, he's openly admitting that there's no point hanging around Congress and raking in the grift when his big grift machine has been shut down. Second, hanging onto a Congressional seat would interfere with him openly accepting the millions of Corporate and Foreign Government cash he's got lined up to start rolling in on Jan. 1.

Interesting comparison. What Caesar did was clearly, unambiguously against Roman law. Whereas every charge against Trump has the law stretched to the point it's crying asking for mercy. A further fascinating point about this comparison. The law Caesar broke bringing troops to Rome has a modern equivalent, wherein President cannot order the National Guard into the Capitol without an explicit request that he do so.

We have an administration that is both catastrophically incompetent and holds productive Americans in the lowest regard possible. Everyone from violent homeless people to foreign born moochers is taken care of while the people who make this country work are systematically shit on. If that's not a dictatorship, then it certainly shops at the same stores.

Posted by: Tom Servo at December 07, 2023 01:48 PM (i9ffA) After a lot of cajoling and threats from Gaetz and his cohorts earlier this year, McCarthy did sign off on the set of institutional reforms that the reformers demanded for his election as Speaker. One of those reforms was the 'motion to vacate the Chair' rule, the very one Gaetz and Co. used to unseat McCarthy, with the Dems help, of course. Not quite the destroyer you present.

So, one night back in 2020, I think...I was drunk and on FB (I think, I quit it around that time) and an ad rolled by...it was a Romanized Trump, in a toga and the words below "Cross the Rubicon".

When did he try to "overthrow the government"?
Well, it's either the time(s) Trump asked his lawyers to find support in the law for stopping the results from being certified, which by definition would be legal, or it's the "insurrection" that he supposedly incited his supporters to attempt on Jan 6 - you know, when all the right-wing 2nd Amendment fanatics descended on DC but left their guns at home.

Responding to Mr Gaetz, Condé Nast Legal Affairs Editor Luke Zaleski noted that "There is nothing you can say or do to confront Maga gaslighting that won't be met with more MAGA gaslighting".
"They'll say anything to make themselves the victim and hero in everything. And there is nothing you can say to do anything about it. That is the MAGA gaslighting paradox," he added. _____ That's a lot of words you used where you could have simply said, "No, we are absolutely not advocating the assassination of Mr Trump, that would be abhorent, destructive and immoral".

He will be very employable as a lobbyist, since he has kept his respectability by compromising with Democrats and not giving in to the MAGA wing of the party. When he starts a new PAC, many donors will be interested. The future is bright. Posted by: PG at December 07, 2023 02:09 PM (gQbO4) 411

390 Responding to Mr Gaetz, Condé Nast Legal Affairs Editor Luke Zaleski noted that "There is nothing you can say or do to confront Maga gaslighting that won't be met with more MAGA gaslighting".
"They'll say anything to make themselves the victim and hero in everything. And there is nothing you can say to do anything about it. That is the MAGA gaslighting paradox," he added. _____ That's a lot of words you used where you could have simply said, "No, we are absolutely not advocating the assassination of Mr Trump, that would be abhorent, destructive and immoral". But you didn't say that, which says a lot. Posted by: Chuck Martel at December 07, 2023 02:06 PM (fs1hN) ______ He really likes saying "gaslighting." I suspect he likes big dicks in his gashole.

Frankly, I don't believe we should spend too much time worrying about something the Washington Post thinks is important.
They're not too intelligent. They apparently failed world history and American history cause here they go again. (the unions and the rich white guys against the young idealists with no common sense) It's market forces folks. If what you produce is desire people will want to buy it and you can judge how much by how many want it. If what you produce doesn't sell to too many people and you wind up with a lot of competitors at the same level then them and they're customers will dictate prices and maybe you can't deal. Economists is real simple which is why I can't believe that AOC got a degree in it. I doubt she even walked passed a college that taught economics. But there they are. Course it could be a gimmick to see some digits being sold. They'll have to do way better than they have so far. Posted by: jakee308 at December 07, 2023 02:13 PM (UPbu1) 440

491 Usually there's not actually any mucus up there, it's just inflammation, and the more you try to get rid of the "mucus", the worse the inflammation gets.
Rest, drink water, and stop fucking around with your head so it can settle down a bit. Posted by: Warai-otoko at December 07, 2023 02:19 PM (9UlRk) Exactly. An Ibuprofen to reduce inflammation would go well, as would anti-inflammatory foods and drinks - think garlic, ginger, raw honey, tea...maybe not all at once...

This is amusing because with the crash in education, nobody knows who Julius Caesar is, aside from those men who think of Rome a lot. Nobody fears a dictator because schools don't value our democracy or freedom.

So you're saying Nyquil predates chicken sacrifices??
Posted by: BurtTC at December 07, 2023 02:30 PM (dGCAG) No, the medicine is for the symptoms. The chicken sacrifice is so Ace can prove he's hardcore.

Remember when a rodeo clown was fired for wearing an Obama mask?
Even though he'd worn the mask of other Presidents? Yes, they are inciting their crazies to shoot at Trump. Caesar's assassins truly believed they'd be hailed as heros. The Democrats will celebrate the murder of Trump.... Posted by: People's Hippo Voice - Personality Commentator at December 07, 2023 02:39 PM (dfJgP) 585
I'm at the point where i don't believe anything is controlled by anybody anymore.
There's no coherence, there's no grand arc, there's no unfolding plan. Everything is turning to shit because no one is actually in charge of anything anymore, it's all just various nefarious chaos agents sticking their oar in, fucking things up, raking in a couple bucks from the Scheme Of The Day, and fucking back off again. The quotidian worker drones vomit out a bunch of "reports" and "memoranda" saying how great it all is and have their winnings direct-deposited, and everything just keeps on squidging down the shit flume.

>>Cause the Sainted One wants control so he's going to get Michelle elected. He could control Joe. And not anyone else they could put up there. Michelle would be a shoe in from what a lot of polls say.
I don't think there is anyone more over hyped than Michelle Obama. She's never even held a real job or had answer any tough policy questions. It's just race BS. The idea of Michelle might make the media wet, the reality would be a completely different story. Posted by: JackStraw at December 07, 2023 02:41 PM (ZLI7S) 587
In the event of a Trump assassination, the press is signing their own death warrants with garbage articles and segments like this.
Much like the tough guy that's never been in a fist fight in their lives, they never learned one of life's most important lessons; Anybody Can Get Got. They're actively calling for a civil war and stupidly think they'll make it out of one alive. Posted by: Malicious Compliance at December 07, 2023 02:42 PM (OBuuS) 588
519 457 What is this Roman series y'all are talking about?
Posted by: Bulgaroctonus at December 07, 2023 02:16 PM (JrojV) HBO's 'Rome'. 2 seasons, very well done. and enlightened us by introducing us to the flatonic aether. Posted by: anachronda at December 07, 2023 02:31 PM (v3pYe) I saw one of those, not sure how. Gave up when they had Julia, Octavian's mom cast as a cut rate Livia from I, Claudius. Historically she begged him to run and hide after the assassination rather than steal his Uncle/Adopted Dad's war chest from the army for his invasion of Parthia to fund his rise to power. Plus it was too dark in most of the scenes. Klieg lights are there for a reason, dudes. Posted by: Oldcat at December 07, 2023 02:43 PM (eoQWY) 589
You know why Ceasar crossed the Rubicon?

Posted by: Warai-otoko at December 07, 2023 02:40 PM (9UlRk) You can't even begin to understand the administration until you begin seeing the factions (at least half a dozen) contending for influence and power. And Kamala isn't in any of them. Also you can see the crisis in Israel, Africa (since lost) and now South America to see that the US isn't calling all the shots anywhere internationally.

Posted by: People's Hippo Voice - Personality Commentator at December 07, 2023 02:43 PM (dfJgP) Caesar needed the government to give him immunity from prosecution, or allow him to run for consul in absentia, both normal, to let the voters decide. The clique controlling the government refused, although they allowed Pompey to do the same. His tribunes of the people objected and were beaten. Religiously tribunes, as representatives of the populace, were sacred and could not be kept from their duties by the government or harmed. This was sacrilege, and the tribunes fled to Caesar and provided the final breach. Caesar had one legion, just a few thousand men, and Pompey had far more, including 2 legions from Caesar. Its a lot easier provoking someone from a safe seat than forcing them to stop, and Pompey evacuated Rome and fled to Greece and Caesar just missed catching him.

It would be akin to Caesar crossing the Rubicon if President Trump had ordered federal troops to take over the Capitol. Since he never went beyond his request for the National Guard, which Speaker Pelosi turned down, then this is nothing but a Fear-Cry-akin to crying that the sky is falling.

Indicting Trump for trying to overthrow the government will prove akin to indicting Caesar for crossing the Rubicon
If the Romans had indictments, they would have filed one against Caesar. It was against the law to bring provincial troops into Italy -- that's why "crossing the Rubicon" was symbolic. But comparing Trump to Caesar is ridiculous. Trump has never been the autocrat they claim -- he obeyed the laws better than any Democrat since 1992.

When the Roman Senate feared that Caesar violate their constitution and laws to make himself king they violated their constitution and laws to murder him.
This didn't really work because in a few years they had Caesar's neph show up, declare himself Emperor Augustus and made it stick. You cannot preserve your republic by violating your republic. Posted by: Ronzoni at December 07, 2023 08:26 PM (lx8SF) 601

A civil war followed the assassination of Julius Ceasar. The ultimate victor, Octavian (Ceasar Augustus) had all of the Senators who participated in the assassination of Julius Ceasar killed. That was over 60 of them.
He also had the Senators' families stripped of their estates and reduced to poverty. Those family lines were basically extinguished. History does not repeat. But it often rhymes. Posted by: Engineer at December 09, 2023 01:24 AM (hFHFP) Processing 0.04, elapsed 0.0648 seconds. |
