Trump making triumphant comeback to the White House
Trump is expected to sign about 100 executive orders on his first day back in office Four years after disappearing behind the scenes amid growing discontent and suspicions about loyalties and vote counts, Donald Trump returns to the White House on Monday with a new vice president (J.D. Vance), new energy, and the galvanization that legal proceedings and assassination attempts leave in a political leader.
The 45th President will also become the 47th at noon local time as the Republican Party regains control in Washington DC. So much so, that Trump is expected to sign some 100 executive orders on his first day back in office, including mass deportations of illegal migrants, increasing fossil fuel developments, and extending Tik-Tok's presence in the country, among other items.
Given the current cold weather, (max -5 min -12C) the ceremony was moved indoors to the Capitol Rotunda for the first time in 40 years. Foreign heads of state and government such as Presidents Javier Milei of Argentina, Santiago Peña of Paraguay, and Nayib Bukele of El Salvador are to be joining Prime Ministers Giorgia Meloni of Italy and Sir Keir Starmer of the United Kingdom for the occasion.
Other countries such as Japan, Spain, India, and Israel will be represented by their Foreign Ministers, while Latin American countries such as Mexico, Brazil, and Uruguay will send their Ambassadors in Washington DC to the ceremony. Meanwhile, the European Union (EU), will not have an official representative attending the event.
Making headlines last week was Brazilian Supreme Federal Court (STF) Justice Alexandre De Moraes refusing to give his passport to former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, who was invited over by the Trump family. De Moraes claimed the former head of state, currently under investigation for his alleged involvement in the Jan. 8, 2023, riots in Brasilia, posed a flight risk. The STF also believes those events amounted to a failed coup d'état. Bolsonaro will be represented by former First Lady Michelle Bolsonaro while 21 Brazilian lawmakers, including Bolsonaro's son Eduardo, are expected to attend in a personal capacity.
A special guest at the event will be Edmundo González Urrutia, whom Washington and other governments recognize as Venezuela's legitimate President-elect following the controversial July 28, 2024, elections which Nicolás Maduro claimed to have won thanks to declarations from the National Electoral Council (CNE) and the Supreme Court, both subservient to the Chavista regime.
On Saturday, the 18th, Bolsonaro said he felt embarrassed for not being able to attend his ally's inauguration. The former president gave a press conference at Brasília Airport, where he accompanied his wife, Michelle Bolsonaro (PL-SP), as she boarded her flight to the United States. The former president's son, federal deputy Eduardo Bolsonaro (PL-SP) will also attend the inauguration.

”Beginning in 1943, the War Department published a series of pamphlets for U.S. Army personnel in the European theater of World War II. Titled Army Talks, the series was designed “to help [the personnel] become better-informed men and women and therefore better soldiers.
Jan 20th, 2025 - 09:26 am 0On March 24, 1945, the topic for the week was “FASCISM!”
Americans should not be fooled into thinking that fascism could not come to America, ...
... it was important for Americans to understand the tactics fascists would use to take power in the United States. They would try to gain power “under the guise of ‘super-patriotism’ and ‘super-Americanism.’” And they would use three techniques:
First, they would pit religious, racial, and economic groups against one another to break down national unity. Part of that effort to divide and conquer would be a “well-planned ‘hate campaign’ against minority races, religions, and other groups.”
Second, they would deny any need for international cooperation, because that would fly in the face of their insistence that their supporters were better than everyone else. “In place of international cooperation, the fascists seek to substitute a perverted sort of ultra-nationalism which tells their people that they are the only people in the world who count. With this goes hatred and suspicion toward the people of all other nations.”
Third, fascists would insist that “the world has but two choices — either fascism or communism, and they label as ‘communists’ everyone who refuses to support them.”
It is “vitally important” to learn to spot native fascists, the government said, “even though they adopt names and slogans with popular appeal, drape themselves with the American flag, and attempt to carry out their program in the name of the democracy they are trying to destroy.”
“Poor Skippy”
Jan 20th, 2025 - 06:31 pm 0You are so desperate you dig yourself in even deeper. Imagine you being so angry, and unable to refute even the smallest scintilla of what I have proved. That you waste your time on Youtube videos, that have nothing to do with me at all, absolutely pathetic.
Skippy is the sock-puppet of Chicureo a lying fascist.
Chicureo “Although I've defended Pinochet despite his regrettable actions...I support nationalists that are willing to protect their nation ...Just giving the vote to women has resulted in our current nightmare.“
The link between malignant narcissism, racism and fascism
Narcissism was linked to fascism by the father of bioenergetic therapy, Alexander Lowen, in his book, ”Narcissism — Denial of the True Self”
