Republican Georgia state Sen. Colton Moore on Tuesday told “War Room” host Steve Bannon that he plans to push the legislature to defund Fulton District Attorney Fani Willis’ prosecution of former President Donald Trump and 18 co-defendants, arguing that Trump’s prosecution threatens to ignite a “civil war.” Moore complained that indicted fellow state Sen. Shawn Still is going to have to spend “a million dollars” to defend himself in the case. “It’s just like Nazi Germany,” Moore claimed. “I mean, they want to call us the Nazis and their actions are Nazism.”
Moore’s remarks came as Georgia GOP Senate leaders seek to find a way to punish Willis for bringing charges against Trump. "I told one senator… we’ve got to put our heads together and figure this out. We need to be taking action right now.
Pretty sure they just admitted obstruction of justice and some conspiracy charges…
It’s always projection on their part. Holding people accountable for their actions is “Nazism”. 🙄

Please folks, especially those of you who like to push the “both sides” narrative. Recognize that while Democrats are not perfect, they are not these batshit insane Republicans that have wormed their way into power.
I want more choices, too. But until we have them - Republicans have been telling us exactly who they are since about 2016. Believe them. And do not vote them into power. Not locally, not at the state level, and for sure not at the federal level.
They have proven that they are incapable of seeing laws as anything more than tools to be leveraged against those not like them, and that they will skip right to violence when that fails.
I told one senator… we’ve got to put our heads together and figure this out. We need to be taking action right now. Because if we don’t, our constituencies are gonna be fighting it in the streets. Do you want a civil war? I don’t want a civil war. I don’t want to have to draw my rifle. I want to make this problem go away with my legislative means of doing so,"
Translation: “Just do what I say so I don’t have to get violent.”
Sounds a lot like an abuser explaining how if only you hadn’t made him angry, he wouldn’t have had to beat you.
Fuck these people. Get them out of power.
Translation: “Just do what I say so I don’t have to get violent.”
Literal fascism
Every time a popular vote loser wins the presidency, convincing people that voting will get anyone out of power becomes harder. Definitely vote if you’re in a swing state, because it can be harm reduction for the most vulnerable, but don’t pretend getting the Dems in will improve things much for most people. Our entire system is moribund, we just haven’t figured it out yet.
Republicans haven’t even fucked things up to the degree they want to yet. Dems may be less effective than we’d like, and some of them may not give a shit at all. But R is fully committed, pedal to the metal, driving towards the cliff edge, on a number of different axes. (that’s plural of axis not plural of axe. Am I misspelling that?)
I’ll take anything that is less bad than that.
If folks can vote third party without it becoming a stepping stone to R wins, I have no argument with that.
Republicans in Georgia aren’t the only ones with rifles.
Trust me.
Last time the Georgia fascists met an armed contingent–at Stone Mountain, during the BLM protests–they were the ones that backed down, not antifa.
Lol right? These are the same people that complain about gun violence in places they don’t live, yet act like they’re tough because they have a gun? I bet most are way too afraid to actually use it
I mean, if I stay in the subway, I should be safe from them, right? 😛
And last time Atlanta wasn’t even fighting back from within
Moore complained that indicted fellow state Sen. Shawn Still is going to have to spend “a million dollars” to defend himself in the case. “It’s just like Nazi Germany,” Moore claimed.
Ah yes, the legendary legal proceedings of the Nazis.
Well there were the Neurenburg trials, but that was at the end of their Naziing
Forgive my pedantery: It’s “Nuremburg” in English, “Nürnburg” in German.
“I mean, they want to call us the Nazis and their actions are Nazism.”
When I see people wearing nazi related symbols, with nazi related tattoos, waving actual nazi flags, and giving the nazi salute, then yeah I think it’s fair to call you nazis.
Please I want you hicks to take on the federal government. Please do it would be so funny. Like whatchu gonna do to the Abrams tank when it rolls over your trailer Tucker?

Both of whom are orders of magnitude tougher than most Americans, especially Bubba in his rascal
Although, similarly funded by our adversaries. Go figure.
I think Florida man might be on par with them. Possibly better if he’s on meth.
To be fair, they knew the territory better than the US did. Which is probably not the case here.
Obviously I want just charges for the sake of what’s right, but I also want to see these fucker’s faces when they try to start a war and realize how few ppl are actually behind them at that level. I realize Trump’s support is ominously higher than many of us would think, but at each level of intensity it drops tremendously (I don’t even think half of his voters would admit to voting for him publicly). At the level out going to war I think they’d look around and feel pretty lonely.
All that said the fact that 47 percent of voters still supported him for reelection is terrifying
I don’t think many realize how stirred up the followers of these people are. Even in Canada I see them sharing photos of themselves on the gun range claiming they are “battle ready”, how they will shoot anyone that forces their children to have mandatory sex changes in school, or force vaccines on them by coming to their houses to jab them, and how they would like to gather up all the liberals into a building and blow them all up.
I ask them have they heard of Timothy McVie or the OK city bombing and they usually haven’t, heck even Waco was too long ago for their collective memories despite this rhetoric sounding familiar.
There"s a real problem coming and those that are trying to be civil and decent are not prepared for this powder keg that has been created to explode. I’m really concerned there isn’t going to be the right amount of push back when the time comes to these enraged people that aren’t educated beyond their alternate news sources or their own research in their echo chambers. “Due process” has been eroded with claims of the left corrupting the legal system, judges, FBI, CIA and police forces against them.
I think people expect others to be at least as educated as them, but honestly many of these people can’t even point out the US on a global map let alone read a book beyond what they were “forced to” in high school.
Trump and his like have figured out how to use these people to further their means. I’m just surprised more haven’t turned on Trump after he didn’t back his fellow “Patriots” from arrest after Jan 6th or pay their legal costs. Mind you this is the same group that thinks a dead Kennedy was coming back to save the US from these evil child rapists on the left so I’m not sure there’s a pathway back to common sense for many of them as it is.
I really wish we didn’t give these people press
I honestly disagree with that statement. The sane people left need to know what the insane are planning and capable of. I’d rather be aware that the Nazis are coming for me than just be overrun and silenced.
There is a proverbial saying in German (I am from Austria - then-export-country of Hitler) which is “Wehret den Anfängen”, which translates to “Ward off the beginnings”. And I fully believe that is what a decent society should do when it comes to Nazis. And the press is needed for that.
Seems like there’s an argument that he was threatening the DA
Tell me you don’t know what Nazism is without telling me you don’t know what Nazism is
Good news, you don’t have to if you don’t want to.
He def wants too.
From last Friday:
Sarah Palin says US civil war ‘is going to happen’ over Trump prosecutions
Monkey see, monkey do.
Luckily for him (or unluckily for him?), modern war is barely fought with rifles.
But these fuckers anti-education and anti-science bullshit is a danger to the country but allowing us to be technologically leapfrogged by more…um…intrepid…nations.
If the idea is for America to backslide away from self-determination, then the Republican party might just be for you.
When I think about what kind of psyops a global competitor would levy against us, and what goals they might hope to engender with their efforts, for the past 20 years, its always just been whatever the Republican party has been saying/doing.
Yeah, good luck with your little pop gun against a satellite-guided drone bomber.
He’s already being prosecuted. Pull out the gun or shut the fuck up, pissbaby
