    My conspiracy is they want to overturn the filibuster also so they can reinstitute the draft. They don’t have the numbers to do it ATM but they would if it’s out of the way.

      Why would they reinstate the draft though? Its wildly unpopular and would leave the military with a bunch of soldiers who don’t want to be there and for what? the issues in Iran aren’t from a lack of infantry on our part.

        Fascism demands war. It demands “sacrifice”, slaughter, for its existence and continuation.

        Ur-Fascism literally worships strength and conflict as refiners of masculine, dominant ontology. We are talking about grifters yes, but not all of them, some on his cabinet are genuine, dyed in the wool fascists. Miller, Hegseth, Gabbard… And others.

        All you need to do is bribe, convince, or threaten enough senators and other politicians to get your way when you’re in charge of the executive.
