More White Supremacists are again arrested for threatening Assassination and Terrorsim
It's happened time after time and time again. White Supremacist -- inspired by Trump and the Great Replacement theory -- have been stopped once more
I just finished writing a post on Dailykos that argued that the entire MAGA movement is a Genocidal Neo-Confederate Death Cult. They want to return America to the “Greatness” before the Civil Rights Act when America participated in mass racial sterilization, terrorism via lynching mob and race riots such as the Tulsa Massacre, Covict Leasing, War Crimes such as the Trail of Tears, tragically deadly Boarding Schools for Native American children where graveyards have been found under their foundations, the Chinese Exclusion Act, the Japanese Internment and Operation: Wetback.
The story of America is a story of racial violence and murder. The goal of the MAGAs is to deny that truth and also to repeat its horror and crimes. This is why they implement censorship in our schools, and criminalize people for being gay or even discussing the subject and existence of LGBTQ persons.
Yet again, the proof had made itself evident as a group of White Supremacists have been indicted for plotting an Assassination, Terrorism and attempting to start a Race War.
Two leaders of a white supremacist group have been charged after allegedly plotting assassinations and terrorist attacks that they hoped would bring on a race war.
In a 37-page indictment unsealed by federal prosecutors on Monday, Dallas Erin Humber, 34, and Matthew Robert Allison, 37, were accused of leading a network of channels on the Telegram app that promoted "white supremacist accelerationism."
Court filings said the ideology was "centered on the belief that the white race is superior," and the leaders hoped to start a race war that would collapse the government to create a "white ethnostate."
The men were accused of soliciting members of the so-called Terrorgram Collective to carry out assassinations and critical infrastructure.
The court filings said that a U.S. senator, a federal district judge, and a former U.S. attorney were included on a hit list of "high-value" targets. State and local officials and leaders of private companies and nongovernmental organizations were listed.
The indictment alleged that the men told members to "take action now" and assassinate the targets. Members were said to have been provided with instructions on making bombs and finding federal buildings.
As shocking as that may be, the truth is that we’ve seen exactly this before.
We saw it in the Christchurch Massacre that killed over 50 people. We saw it at the El Paso Walmart massacre that killed 23 people. We saw it at the Buffalo Tops market massacre that killed 11 people, we saw it at the Tree of Life Massacre that killed 10 people, and lastly we saw it at the Attack on the Capitol which ultimately took the lives of 9 people.

Prosecutors said that the white supremacist leaders inspired plots in the U.S. and around the world. During a 2022 attack in Slovakia, two people were killed at an LGBTQ bar. Five were stabbed in a knife attack outside a mosque in Turkey. In the U.S., law enforcement foiled a member's planned attack on an energy facility.
Assistant Attorney General Matt Olsen said the crimes went beyond "mere words" because attackers were equipped with actionable plans.
"Today's indictment charges the defendants with leading a transnational terrorist group dedicated to attacking America's critical infrastructure, targeting a hit list of our country's public officials, and carrying out deadly hate crimes – all in the name of violent white supremacist ideology," Attorney General Merrick Garland said in a statement. "Today's arrests are a warning that committing hate-fueled crimes in the darkest corners of the internet will not hide you, and soliciting terrorist attacks from behind a screen will not protect you. The United States Department of Justice will find you, and we will hold you accountable."
Telegram CEO Pavel Durov was arrested in France last month, where prosecutors alleged that his platform had been used for criminal activity. Telegram has since agreed to increase the moderation of private chats.
While this is going on, we have Trump claiming that Immigrants from Haiti are eating ducks and pets— which is just plain weird. He’s been stoking the fires of racism.
According to a report from the Guardian's Ben Makuch, a common sight at Trump rallies are signs handed out by the campaign that state in all caps: "MASS DEPORTATION NOW."
That message falls in line with demands from neo-Nazis who are undergoing another resurgence as the election nears.
The report notes that Trump himself has been spreading racist memes on his Truth Social account, with Makuch writing, "Among them were memes implying the Democrats will bring rapists into the country and a 2012 photo of men in Karachi, Pakistan, burning an American flag with the caption: 'Meet your neighbors [...] IF KAMALA WINS.'"
"Known figures on the far right and their online denizens are seizing on the open hatred of immigrants from the top Republican and going even more public with their brand of activism," the Guardian is reporting with Heidi Beirich, co-founder of the Global Project Against Hate and Extremism (GPAHE) explaining, "At this point, demonizing and lying about immigrants is part and parcel of the far-right scene and a major part of its anti-immigrant messaging."
She added that racist groups see their message being “mainstreamed by political figures”.
According to Joshua Fisher-Birch, an analyst at the Counter Extremism Project (CEP), "These groups will continue to hold anti-immigration rallies before the November election because they see an opportunity to recruit and gain publicity within the broader anti-immigrant space," before warning, "These extremist groups are not popular but frequently try to gain momentum from culture-war issues in an attempt to stay relevant and recruit.”
"The Trump campaign inflaming hate crimes and far-right activism is not without precedent. A study out of the University of North Texas on the 2016 Trump campaign, one that held nativist racism at its core, statistically proved that in places where Trump held one of his over 300 rallies there was a '226% increase in hate-motivated incidents,'" the Guardian is reporting.
And also that if he is re-elected he’d create firings squads for Gang members. [Somehow, I don’t think he’s going to bother with a trial or a conviction first since he claims all the courts are “rigged.”]
Former President Donald Trump reportedly wanted to kill drug dealers and gang members in mass executions that would be a spectacle aimed at demonstrating his power.
Sources tell Rolling Stone that Trump would regularly make angry demands about using either firing squads or gallows to mass-execute gang members in a way that would see "bodies pile up in the streets."
“F---ing kill them all,” Trump would say, according to Rolling Stone's sources. “An eye for an eye.”
The former president also referenced the way authoritarian regimes dealt with drug dealers by saying, "Other countries do it all the time."
“He had a particular affinity for the firing squad,” one former Trump administration official told the publication.
The report goes on to detail exactly why Trump was not successful in his endeavors.
"That mass executions were not a feature of Trump’s term is a credit to the American justice system and the more sober-minded government officials who were unwilling to be complicit in his mad schemes," reports Rolling Stone. "These aides and advisers typically put the president off, making vague promises to 'look into' the idea, long enough to let Trump’s tyrannical tantrum blow over."
However, the publication warns that guardrail is far less likely to hold in a second term.
"A second administration will not feature advisers in the mold of former Chief of Staff John Kelly, or Defense Secretary Mark Esper — establishment Republicans with a stake in keeping Trump constitutionally in bounds," the report notes.
No, Project 2025 is specifically designed to remove the institutionalists who would abide by the constitution — and due process — and tamp down these mass murderous impulses by Trump. It would line the government halls with arrays of like-minded sycophants — like these would-be terrorists — who will only be to happy to carry out Trump’s deadly orders.
Former Republican strategist and MSNBC host Nicole Wallace argues that we need to stop ignoring Donald Trump’s danger to democracy by “sane-washing” him.
Trump wrote on TruthSocial that he would prosecute and jail anyone who "cheated" in the election. That includes officials, poll workers, political operatives, donors and lawyers.
The remark raised the hackles of Nicolle Wallace as she began her Monday episode of "Deadline: White House."
"You should know it includes a lot of nonsensical caps. A couple of long words that make me wonder who wrote it," Wallace confessed.
Typically, she doesn't read off Trump's social media posts, but she explained that it's time to start showcasing the outlandish comments.
Last week, The Associated Press and The New York Times drew criticism for "sane washing" Trump, or sanitizing comments widely regarded as gibberish or nonsensical. The example came from Trump's appearance at the Economic Club of New York, in which he couldn't answer a question about affordable child care.
"It is long past time to include what he's saying, ignore what he's saying, or dismiss it as the rantings of an angry, bitter, and delusional man," Wallace said. "He's all of those things. But he often sounds addled and confused. So, we gloss over these things. But this time, he's lashing out at the justice system and the election system."
She noted that one of the biggest problems is that the "country has been drinking from the fire hose of Trump's lies and conspiracies for so many years now. It often feels like too many of us have become numb to these kinds of pronouncements, this series of threats from Trump."
With the election 57 days away, Wallace said the media is more focused instead on a horse race or a tightening of polls.
"We're not going to do that," she promised. "Trump is all of the things that we said. He's addled; he's delusional. The things that he writes have bizarre, nonsensical fragments of sentences, [are] incorrect. But he is the Republican presidential nominee, and tomorrow, he'll be treated that way."
He gets treated like he’s sane, rational and normal. He is not.
He’s deadly deluded, virulently racist and obsessed with retribution and punishment.
The people that support pretend this isn’t true, they pretends he’s just “letting off steam” and being “hyperbolic.” Again, he is not.
Here’s a perfect example of Sane-and-Supremacist-washing that the “reasonable” Right wing does as Keith Boykin tells the simple truth - the reason Trump gets a pass on all his misogyny and racism is because so many White People - especially white men - LIKE IT.
"I never really talk about this because it's not politically correct to say it, but he's in a dead heat because of white people," said Boykin, to which Urban shook his head in disagreement. "The majority of white people support Donald Trump."
He noted white voters supported Trump in 2016 and 2020, and would likely do so again in November.
"If it were up to Black people or Latinos, Asian-Americans and other people of color, he would lose in a landslide," he said.
As Boykin tried to continue, Urban and the rest of the panel started talking over each in raised voices, with Urban asserting Trump is gaining with Black men and Hispanics, and Brian Stelter maintaining it's "still about white dominance."
Boykin then continues, saying Trump is in the lead because he "protects and projects the idea of protecting white supremacy. That's what's resonating. People are talking about economic anxiety in 2016 and then Trump went off and he led a cavalcade of racism."
Urban vehemently disagreed, shaking his head and trying to talk over Boykin and another panelist who tried to interject, "No that's ... Keith, that's crazy. Be serious."
"I'm 100% sure," shot back Boykin.
Phillip jumped in and pushed back on Boykin's claim, asking why Trump is improving with Black v"No he's not improving," shouted Boykin, slamming a hand on the table. "No! I'm sorry he's not improving with —"
"Keith, you're delusional," said Urban.
After a brief back-and-forth debate between Boykin and Phillip, who noted Trump has improved his support with Black voters since 2016, Urban noted that Stelter also disagreed with Boykin.
"He's clearly growing support!" shouted Stelter, adding: "But it's not just about white dominance — it's about male dominance!"
The answer to Urban’s question is obvious - some Black people like Trump because they are a) Also bigots afraid of migrants and b) Self-hating like Uncle Ruckus. Urban is a shill whose job is the quickly sweep up the trail of bigoted crap that follows behind Trump like an elephant at a parade.
Trump’s clear and deliberate appeal to racism can not be denied.
He already deliberately incited and attack and insurrection against our control. He did it in broad daily, he did with cameras on him. He tried to softball the pitch by one saying “Peacefully” — but he said “Fight”, “Fight”, “Fighting”, “Fight like hell or your not gonna have a country any more” 20 times.
The message came through. The assault took place right in front of us, just as it did in Charlottesville, in Christchurch, at Tree Of Life, at the Buffalo Tops and the El Paso Walmart. The attacks were planned and being put in motion by yet another gang of White Supremacists bolstered, supported and inspired by Trump.
He has to be defeated. He has to be prosecuted and jailed for his crimes. There is no other option.
