Dave Emory's "For The Record"

Introduction: These programs set forth discussion of the political and historical links between "Team Trump" and the fascist regimes of Hitler, Francisco Franco and Augusto Pinochet. A recent book labeling opponents of Trump et al as "Unhumans." The networks to which Vance, Trump and the GOP belong have evolved directly from the milieu of the JFK Assassination. "Vance Just Endorsed a Troubling Authoritarian Book" by Michelle Goldberg; The New York Times; 8/07/2024, p. A22 (Western print edition) . . . . . “Unhumans,” an anti-democratic screed that [Jack] Posobiec wrote with Joshua Lisec, comes with endorsements from some of the most influential people in Republican politics, including, most significantly, the vice-Presidential candidate J.D. Vance. The word “fascist” gets thrown around a lot in politics, but it’s hard to find a more apt one for “Unhumans” which came out last month. . . . . Often, they write, “great men of means” are required to crush this scourge [the “Unhumans”]. The contempt for democracy in “Unhumans” is not subtle. “Our study of history has brought us to this conclusion: Democracy has never worked to protect innocents from the unhumans,” write Posobiec and Lisec. One of the book’s heroes is the Spanish dictator Francisco Franco, who overthrew the democratic Second Spanish Republic in the country’s 1930’s civil war. . . . They quote him on what doesn’t work against the unhuman threat: “We do not believe in government through the voting booth. The Spanish national will was never freely expressed through the ballot box.” . . . . . . . . “Unhumans” lauds Augusto Pinochet, the leader of the Chilean military who led a coup against Salvador Allende’s elected government in 1973, ushering in a reign of torture and repression that involved tossing political enemies from helicopters. Pinochet-inspired helicopter memes have been common in the MAGA movement for years. And as the historian David Austin Walsh wrote last year, there has long been a cult of Franco on the right. . . . . . . . [The Great American Counter Revolution] is achievable but only with the resolve of Franco and the thoroughness of [Senator Joseph] McCarthy.” . . . . . . . . “Much like the United States founding fathers, Franco and his fellows saw themselves as rebels intended to overthrow a corrupt, tyrannical government that aided and abetted murder and rape as well as other repugnant sins” . . . .
