In reply to the discussion: White House Plans Broad Crackdown on Liberal Groups [View all]muriel_volestrangler
(104,724 posts)68. Apparently it's "The Nation", and it takes its orders from the Ford Foundation and (of course) George Soros
That's the official line from the Vice President and Gauleiter Stephen Miller:
Three days after the murder of Charlie Kirk, allegedly by one Tyler Robinson of Utah, Vice President JD Vance and other government officials seized the means of production of Kirks podcast, so as not to let a good tragedy or Kirks audience of more than 3 million to go to waste. They put on their own state-sponsored show, right out of Vances office, to try to blame the killing on liberals and declare and incite retribution on George Soros, the Ford Foundation, and anyone insufficiently sad over Kirks death.

I read a story in The Nation magazine about my dear friend Charlie Kirk. Now, The Nation isn't a fringe blog. It's a well-funded, well-respected magazine whose publishing history goes back to the American Civil War. George Soross Open Society Foundation funds this magazine, as does the Ford Foundation and many other wealthy titans of the American Progressive Movement. The writer accuses Charlie of saying, and I quote, Black women do not have brain processing power to be taken seriously. But if you go and watch the clip, the very clip she links to, you realize he never said anything like that. He never uttered those words.
...
There is no unity with someone who lies about what Charlie Kirk said in order to excuse his murder. There is no unity with someone who harasses an innocent family the day after the father of that family lost a dear friend. There is no unity with the people who celebrate Charlie Kirk's assassination. And there is no unity with the people who fund these articles, who pay the salaries of these terrorists. [...] Did you know that the George Soros Open Society Foundation and the Ford Foundation, the groups who funded that disgusting article justifying Charlie's death, do you know they benefit from generous tax treatment? They are literally subsidized by you and me, the American taxpayer.
...
Miller took to X to coo about how much fun he was having witch-hunting online for the enemies within among his fellow citizens.
In recent days, we have learned just how many Americans in positions of authoritychild services, law clerks, hospital nurses, teachers, govt workers, even DOD employeeshave been deeply and violently radicalized. The consequence of a vast, organized ecosystem of indoctrination.

Wonkette also points out how white supremacists have been going after the Ford Foundation since the 1950s, when it donated to the NAACP. And that maybe the piece of Nazi history to bear in mind today is Kristallnacht - which was triggered by the assassination of a Nazi diplomat.

They're going for Horst Wessell now -- young fiery martyr who wrote a song. Did Charlie write one?

As far as I can tell, they killed 3 people because of Wessel's death, and they used it to rile up their hordes
