Preparing for a Coup: What’s Changed, What Hasn’t

Refuse Fascism

One month to go before the election, what's happening? Elon + X going all out to get Trump back in power, mass deportation plans, nakedly Nazi justifications for those horrific plans, voter rolls being purged, multiple climate-change fueled storms pummeling the southeast with storms of disinformation and death threats against meterologists following, and more. The new apostolic march on Washington this past week called this election "America's last stand" - Sam discusses all this, then talks with Nick Quested, the filmmaker who embedded himself with the Proud Boys for the new documentary 64 Days (64daysfilm.com), which covers the period from the November 2020 election to the January 6, 2021 insurrection.

Mentioned in this episode:

• Mike Hixenbaugh: Christians flock to Washington to pray for America to turn to God — by electing Trump

• Shane Goldmacher: Trump and Republicans Bet Big on Anti-Trans Ads Across the Country

• Myah Ward: We watched 20 Trump rallies. His racist, anti-immigrant messaging is getting darker.
