Maddow shows the cards on Vance

Last night Rachel Maddow dropped a nuclear bomb on this election cycle and it had the effect of a bottle rocket.
As best as I can tell it wasn't picked up by a single one of her peers on MSNBC or by any other major network. It's like she screamed it out into the void and void shrugged.

It was JD Vance openly advocating for a violent overthrow of not just the government but the violent seizures of universities and the entire endowments and the complete disabling of the federal government and the installation of a dictator over the United States.
Vance is a follower of a man named Curtis Yarvin from whom he gets a lot of these beliefs. This guy isn't some random blogger as he came to know this guy through Vance's mentor and sugar daddy and reason he is Trump's VP, billionaire extremist Peter Thiel.
This is next level stuff and proves that Trump is a willful idiot for a much bigger picture and is not the main character of this story. They want Vance to become president.

6. The Rubicon moment, indeed

Vance wants to replace the Republic with a Dictatorship. This is clear from his own words and from those of his "intellectual" mentor -- whatsisname, Yarvin? And the goal aligns perfectly with Fat Donnie's view of the presidency: he was angered and frustrated by the rules and principles laid out in the constitution of the United States and wanted to be able to rule at will.

Look, Fat Donnie is in control of the House -- without being, himself, officially in Government at all. He also controls the Roberts "Supreme Court" -- quotes to show my disdain for what should more correctly be called Roberts' Wreckage -- and the MAGA side of the Senate. Let Vance take over and it would not be completely surprising to see this new CEO of America place horses in the Senate (hat tip to former Roman "CEO" Caligula) to replace the Dems there, and simply expel the Dems from the House while they await their show-trials for treason.

If we defeat Fat Donnie on November 5th -- and prevent the MAGA tools and fools from usurping the rule of law and the voice of the people -- it will be a most welcome event. But even if we do, remember the words of America's most formidable sage who reminds us that "it ain't over 'til it's over." Nazis lost in Germany before they won in Germany. Communists lost in Russia before they won in Russia.

Eternal vigilance and all that., after all.

HE is the Heritage Foundation's pick. Trump needs to be afraid for many reasons. TPTB on the right want Vance.
