Sen. Grassley Blames Russians for Agitating Black Rebelliousness
CLAIMING
“CIVIL WAR,” the capitalist owners of the imperial USian government and
their political puppets in Congress have launched a bipartisan assault on our few remaining First Amendment freedoms.
An earlier WSWS story, relevant for its slightly different focus, is here.
Significantly,
this sudden, dramatic escalation of efforts at censorship and
suppression of anti-Capitalist, anti-fascist, anti-theocratic activism
is jointly led by Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley and Democratic (sic)
Sen. Diane Feinstein.
The Trump/Pence Regime itself has already unleashed its Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) secret police against African-American activists and has long encouraged supporters to attack its opponents in a variety of other ways. Combined with the decision by pro-regime social-media and Internet monopolists to suppress allegedly subversive websites and journalists,
these developments lend credibility both to fears the regime intends to
suspend the Constitution and declare martial law to facilitate mass
arrests and/or that it is preparing to start World War III.
These
fears are intensified by the fact the regime's newest tyrannies were
actually begun in 2016 by Democrats who were then the regime's (alleged)
opponents but are now its obvious allies.
Remember
it was Democratic (sic) Presidential Candidate Hillary Clinton who
advocated thermonuclear war against Russia and China, while Republican
Donald Trump promised he would seek world peace while launching what
amounts to a latter-day pogrom against minorities and immigrants,
thereby confining the empire's savagery to the homeland.
The de facto pogrom began as soon as the regime took office, with skyrocketing immigration arrests and presidential encouragement of police brutality.
