Donald Went Full-On Fascist

Evening Dispatch

By Mary L. Trump

12 October 2024

Look at that banner … that’s some scary sh*t!!!

Since the beginning Donald Trump has been very straight-forward about his hatred of people of color in general and immigrants in particular. Back in June of 2015, while announcing his run for the presidency, he had said without any evidence whatsoever:

When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. […] They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists.

Over the last nine years, his hateful rhetoric has become more extreme, more violent, and in some cases more detached from reality. During this most recent campaign alone he has said that immigrants are “not human” and they are “poisoning the blood” of our country.

Donald spread the vicious lie about Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio are eating people’s pets at the presidential debate in front of a viewing audience of almost 70 million people. With no pushback from his followers or Republican elected officials, it shouldn’t surprise us that we would end up at the point where Donald is completely comfortable channeling his inner eugenicist.

In an interview with Hugh Hewitt, he lied that Vice President Kamala Harris is “allowing people to come through an open border, 13,000 of which were murderers. You know, now, a murderer, I believe this, it’s in their genes. And we got a lot of bad genes in our country right now. They had 425,000 people come into our country that shouldn’t be here, that are criminals.”

The New York Times ran a story about Donald’s fascist statements and this was the headline: “In Remarks about Migrants, Donald Trump Invoked Long-Held Fascination with Genes and Genetics,” as if his interest were merely academic and not the deeply held beliefs of a man who, at this point, we can inarguably say is a fascist…

Israel warned of breaching U.N. peacekeeping position with tanks – UPI.com

The United Nations’ peacekeeping force in Lebanon has warned Israel for the fourth time in as many days against “further flagrant violation of international law.”

The warning Sunday came after peacekeepers in Lebanon were forced to undergo treatment after they were injured by smoke that entered its camp near Ramyah in the early morning hours.

The peacekeeping force, known as UNIFIL, said three platoons of Israeli fighters breached the main gate of its camp with tanks and forcibly entered to demand that the peacekeepers leave to aid Israel in its assault on Lebanon.

The Israeli fighters crossed the so-called Blue Line, a demarcation line drawn by the United Nations in 2000 to confirm Israel’s withdrawal of troops from southern Lebanon after years of occupation.

“For the fourth time in as many days, we remind the IDF and all actors of their obligations to ensure the safety and security of U.N. personnel and property and to respect the inviolability of U.N. premises at all times,” UNIFIL said in a statement on Telegram.

“Breaching and entering a U.N. position is a further flagrant violation of international law and Security Council resolution 1701 (2006). Any deliberate attack on peacekeepers is a grave violation of international humanitarian law and Resolution 1701.”

15 UN peacekeepers injured after Israeli forces destroy main gate of UNIFIL compound in Lebanon | Euronews (M e: Netenyahu out of control… attacking UN Peacekeeping forces!!!)

The UN peacekeeping mission in Lebanon, UNIFIL, has accused Israeli Defense Forces of destroying their main gate and causing mild injuries to at least 15 soldiers after Israeli troops “forcibly entered” their position.

The allegation contained in a UNIFIL statement came after the Israeli prime minister called for the removal of the UN peacekeeping force in southern Lebanon.

The statement said the incident, which occurred early on Sunday morning at a UN position in Ramiya, involved two Israeli tanks.

“We remind the IDF and all actors of their obligations to ensure the safety and security of UN personnel and property and to respect the inviolability of UN premises at all times,” it added.
