Liar Liar! Nazi Pants on Fire!

 

So I was watching an annotated clip from Abby Phillips' CNN panel show.  and as an aside.  The format is part of the national problem.  Either seriously and in real time fact-check the domestic nazi's lies, or you are too substantially validating the communicated lie.

Anyway.  The lie that was being repeated in this clip.  That drug dealers are terrorists.  I bothered to search.  And unfortunately, the specific statute that allows the Federal government to designate terrorists is written recklessly too broad.   And the current administration is taking advantage of that.

Unhinged from objective fact, and reason, and rationality, is how I describe what they are doing with calling ordinary drug dealers terrorists.  See below, how International law defines it.

Big difference.

I am reminded of the Apartheid era issue over the South African law criminalizing being a communist.  Whatever they said was evidence of being a communist, was evidence of being a communist.

Fascism, plain and simple.
