The Social Contract with Joe Walsh
What Does Fascism Look Like? This Is What Fascism Looks Like
•
Federal agents raided MN Congresswoman Ilhan Omar’s DC house earlier this morning, per the direction of the Department of Homeland Security. 22 days before the election. Why? No one knows what. The Justice Department signed off on it, but as we all know, the Justice Department is no longer an independent agency. This is Trump demanding the feds go after one of his political opponents. That’s fascism.

30:29|Did Trump just misspeak last night when he told Iran to go ahead and blow up Los Angeles and San Diego? No. He’s the most divisive president this country has ever had.

Never.If It’s Possible, Trump Is Getting Worse Every Single Day
30:07|He was in Ohio over the weekend, bribed voters with money if they voted Republican, threatened not to help people if they didn’t vote Republican.
