"In times of extreme threat, complacency is complicity."

"It is not a victory for democracy that Bannon, a coup architect and fascist felon who has expressly declared his intent to destroy a government he once served, gets a slap on the wrist for subpoena dodging and remains at large." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/infrastr…
"It is not a victory for democracy that Bannon still faces NO consequences for the original crime of violent insurrection: a plot that remains ongoing." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/infrastr…
"Bannon turned his surrender for subpoena dodging into a reality TV show starring himself. He used the opportunity to get free publicity for his crusade, trying to portray himself as a noble avenger. This is bullshit." patreon.com/posts/infrastr…
"Steve Bannon is not some lowdown renegade seeking to rectify a corrupt system by destroying it completely. Bannon is a criminal elite: an oligarch lackey and a dictator's apprentice. He is part of a transnational operation seeking to strip the US down and sell it for parts."
"Steve Bannon is the same as the rest of the Trump Crime Cult.
They are the worst of the establishment, posing as the establishment's enemy.
They are the dregs of the deep state, posing as the deep state's enemy.
They are everything they profess to be against."
"Bannon spent his life working for Goldman Sachs, Hollywood, the US govt, and Breitbart, a website started in 2007 by rightwing elites in Israel, including Netanyahu himself. This is not a rebel. This is a sociopath who is very good at manipulating pundits and politicians."
"Steve Bannon is not a hard guy to understand, because he tells you everything he's doing. He tells you when he's plotting attacks and brags after the attack happens. He does that because he also understands that flaunting criminality is an act of power." patreon.com/posts/infrastr…
"We live in an era where people are drawn to raw power in its own right, regardless what it intends to achieve. They're drawn to power due to the chaos and trauma of two years of a pandemic and the tepid response to the criminal elite from the Biden admin, FBI, and Congress."
"When people are frightened and willing to disregard their own morality, they cling to power, esp when it poses as a populist demagogue. This is the dictator's playbook. This is what Hitler, Mussolini, Milosevic and others did when their countries were in chaos, and it worked."
"You should take Bannon's threat to destroy the government seriously not because Bannon is some kind of mastermind, but because destroying the Biden administration doesn’t seem particularly challenging." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/infrastr…
"The agencies that can enforce accountability have been refusing to do so even in the face of this very obvious threat. Garland's DOJ and Wray's FBI are not only letting the Trump Crime Cult get away with crimes, but abetting them." patreon.com/posts/infrastr…
"The deference shown to Steve Bannon by US government officials after his long-running blatant crime spree is what *really* needs scrutiny, because Bannon himself is not enigmatic at all." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/infrastr…

"Bannon chose David Schoen to represent him. This is same lawyer who represented Trump at his second impeachment hearing. Why did they choose him? Because Schoen is a mobster lawyer." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/infrastr…
"Besides representing the Russian, Israeli and Italian mafias and Donald Trump, Schoen represented Roger Stone and was planning to represent child rapist and trafficker Jeffrey Epstein in 2019. David Schoen was the last person to see Jeffrey Epstein alive." -- @gaslitnation
"Everyone deserves legal representation. But there's a type of lawyer who goes out of their way to rep the worst people in the world. These lawyers include Trump's mentor Roy Cohn, his legal advisors Alan Dershowitz and David Schoen, and Merrick Garland's mentor Jamie Gorelick."

"The Trump Crime Cult staged an attack on our country and were not punished. That strikes fear into everyone. And when you are a certain type of white person watching that play out, you will decide to submit to that power, to bend to it." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/yes-virg…
"Certain white voters are submitting to the Trump GOP because they can, and because they are afraid of what will happen if they don't. Trump's handling of covid showed them that they, too, are disposable, that this is a homicidal regime." patreon.com/posts/yes-virg…
"They know that a depopulated, weakened country is easier to control. They are kleptocrats and oligarchs and they do not care about any of you, including about the GOP base, because they rely on voter suppression to get in office." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/yes-virg…

"We have another faux controversy about the Steele Dossier in which people cannot see the forest for the treason. They are bogged down in salacious details and missing the big picture." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/yes-virg…
"The most damning thing in that dossier was the claim that Trump has long been a Kremlin asset and career criminal and that the FBI knew the whole time. The other details are incidental, because the worst thing has been proven true." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/yes-virg…
"We are now on year five of an explicit and severe national security crisis involving treason, sedition, and the infiltration of US institutions by hostile foreign states. And it's being streamlined and normalized by both parties." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/yes-virg…

"Democrats are frustrated with Biden and it has depressed the Dem vote. There is an enthusiasm gap between the GOP, who has their base fired up on bloody white rage, and the Dems, whose leaders refuse to enforce basic accountability." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/yes-virg…
"Bannon was pardoned by Trump for fraud, then worked to orchestrate a violent coup, then dodged a subpoena. Where are the charges? Meanwhile, Garland lets the Trump train carry on their banana republic style witch hunts." -- @AndreaChalupa on @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/yes-virg…
"Mueller's long investigation determined that Trump could be charged upon leaving office. Merrick Garland refuses to do it. One reason why Biden's approval is so low among Dems is because Garland is continuing the Bill Barr agenda." -- @Andreachalupa patreon.com/posts/yes-virg…

"Even with its limitations, the Mueller Report laid out numerous counts of obstruction of justice for which Trump -- who is no longer the president -- could be indicted right now. And the DOJ is refusing to do it." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/beware-s…
"There's no protocol holding these people back from doing their jobs. Garland could indict elite criminals now. Yellen could release Trump's tax returns now. Biden could fire Bloom and DeJoy and restore the postal service now. They are refusing to do it." patreon.com/posts/beware-s…
"When an administration won't even defend the postal service -- the most basic piece of vital infrastructure and until recently, a beloved US institution -- that is a sign that the admin does not care if the country survives. It's ominous." @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/beware-s…
