[quote=Anonymous]Oh they’re planning on rounding their opponents up if they win alright.

“Much of the planning for a second term has been unofficially outsourced to a partnership of right-wing think tanks in Washington. Dubbed “Project 2025,” the group is developing a plan, to include draft executive orders, that would deploy the military domestically under the Insurrection Act, according to a person involved in those conversations and internal communications reviewed by The Washington Post. The law, last updated in 1871, authorizes the president to deploy the military for domestic law enforcement.”

And making sure the DOJ is appropriately weaponized against anyone who doesn’t support the GOP:
“But Trump allies such as Russ Vought, his former budget director who now leads the Center for Renewing America, are actively repudiating the modern tradition of a measure of independence for the Department of Justice, arguing that such independence is not based in law or the Constitution. Vought is in regular contact with Trump and would be expected to hold a major position in a second term.”

And they’re happy to lie about it to assuage voters’ fears: “After online publication of this story, Rob Bluey, a Heritage spokesman, said: “There are no plans within Project 2025 related to the Insurrection Act or targeting political enemies.””

Meanwhile on another thread we have someone acting new about the GOP’s intention to lock people up. I mean the media isn’t giving this issue nearly the coverage it deserves. These Project 2025 quotes were buried deep in an article about Trump’s plans, rather than the GOP’s blueprint for literally any body they can get elected.

The time to speak plainly about the GOP is here. [/quote]
