Exactly right. Look at these dangerous buzzwords and phrases: "infiltrating the press, infiltrating entertainment", "weaponizing", "crush", "chokepoints", "the tip of the spear". It's clear to me that Leo thinks in terms of violence and expresses that violence to his followers, whose number he is eager to grow.
Is he talking about the United States becoming another Hungary? Of mob violence against "woke" (I've never been able to nail down exactly what that term actually means besides it being the opposite of "asleep") people in the press, in schools, at all levels of government?
Leo is another scary and dangerous lunatic who has plenty of power and money to back up his anti-American ideas. Except for one thing: it seems implicit in his statements, his call to action, that he's doubtful that Trump will win so he's changing the focus to institutional change toward his brand of very unconservative Conservatism. I'm all for Trump losing big but not for Leo's brand of thought control gaining any ground whatsoever.
I don’t get it either. Why are these lunatics not being investigated?? I’m sure he’s known to him and the DOJ. He has to drop the hammer on these sick twisted individuals before the threat becomes reality.
He went from being a local judge (essentially free of politics) to an academic (mental masturbation politics & no real deadlines) to a politics-infested DOJ. Along that trajectory, you can pretty much intuit why Garland is afraid of his own shadow. He is a pox on this country and democracy. Probably fills more adult diapers per day than Trump.
He's way to timid to be in charge of prosecuting the blatantly corrupt behavior of the GOP and SCOTUS. Kamala needs to replace him with Jack Smith and if the GOP won't confirm him, then just take page from their playbook and make him a temporary like Deadbeat Donnie did for so many positions. 😉
Any group that tries to take over the government and is tax exempt, needs to be charged and automatically taxed back to their first donation to a government member.
Hopefully, we win the Senate and the House when Mme. VP wins this election! We will be able to codify a lot of common-sense laws, set term limts/disclosure laws for SCOTUS/ appoint new judges/ overturn Citizens United/ kill the filibuster and the Electoral College... what else? Oh, there's more!
This is more of the same,"Dark Money" inserted into our representatives Super Pac's. We must overturn "Citizens United" and get money out of Politics ! With a Harris/Walz administration, and a Majority in both the House and Senate,we will Achieve just that. Excellent piece today, and will reStack ASAP 💯🇺🇸💙🌊🌊🌊
You are absolutely correct. John Roberts was installed to get rid of that pesky Citizens United precedent and allow rich entitled jerks to put their stamp on our country.
Citizens United would have to overturned to save democracy. The battle is too difficult to fight without doing that. It should have never gone this far. And we need a more aggressive attorney general to go after these people. I'm counting on Kamala Harris to know someone right for the job
Good word, "antediluvian," I like it. I just increased my vocab...it'll keep me from having to be so verbose. There are too many wrongs that need to be righted that I need to talk about. ;-))
One of you needs to read the new book by Gareth Gore Called Opus about Opus Dei and the history of the cult and how it still influences extremeist politics - and Lenoard Leo's part in all of it... Wendy
I’m reading Opus right now. The corruption runs so deep. Leo is also a Dominionist, a part of the New Apostolic Reformation who are espouse capturing the ‘7 Mountains’ of society (entertainment, business, education, healthcare, government, judiciary and one more I can’t recall).
Mike Flynn is the psyops and militant part of carrying out the Christian nationalist (Leonard Leo) agenda.
This is all a power grab for the billionaires and the extractive (oil, gas, gold, diamonds) industry. The billionaires that bought Christian extremists SCOTUS, and so on.
He and his ilk have been at this for a very long time. We need to meet this challenge head on, organize and fight back.
Leo seems to think Harris-Walz have the election sewn up
Read the review on the book Opus and just ordered it. Opus Dei has been meddling FAR too much in our democracy along with various “Christian Nationalistic” dominations. I suspect that Leonard Leo announcement is connected to Trump’s public mental deteriorating condition (dementia) combined with the large turn out for early in person voting.
The United States is a Democracy not a Theocracy. We don’t want Opus Dei’s version of Catholic or so called “Christian National” version of Christianity made law.
Both organizations worship power and money.
Neither one represents what Jesus Christ actually taught.
Using your “influence” and “chokehold” for your so-called conservative values against DEI and Environmental caretakering??
Didn’t the Lord Almighty’s instruct Christians to treat each other the way we would want Him to treat us. Treat the least of these as if you were treating ME?
Cut off Food Stamps??
Didn’t Jesus specifically instruct Peter to feed His lambs?
To feed His sheep?
Didn’t the Almighty instruct Adam to take care of his creation - HIS earth!?
So way is Opus Dei trying to fight DEI and Environmental responsibility???
You aren’t obeying the Lord’s instructions so who do you follow?
Even the way he talks about his plan is terroristic. He wants to put a chokehold on society and "weaponize" the policy agenda he has put in place.
If trump should win the election, this is the future of America. JD Vance will be their guy and Project 2025, which is so extreme that trump is trying to distance himself from it (lying of course), will unfold according to plan amidst the domestic and global chaos that will be unleashed over the next few years. And during that time you probably have Alito and Thomas retiring so that younger maga justices can rule for decades to come.
This is truly the last chance for democracy, and for America as we know it. They won't be making America great again - they will be making it unrecognizable.
Leo thinks he’s the pointy end of the “conservative” spear launched by Lewis Powell nearly 50 years ago. In reality, however, most everything Leo is talking about has already been done by corporate America. Those “people installation moves” have been integral elements of their plan since the beginning. The “conservative’s” goals were to legalize political bribery without accountability and they have succeeded.
The “conservative” bribery and corruption that now funds politicians has locked out the people’s voices to the absolute detriment of all Americans and our system of governance.
Leo has fallen into the classic trap of perceived absolute power and become absolutely corrupt. This speech confirms he believes he has absolute power and that his intention is to destroy every vestige of American democracy using dark, unaccountable corporate money.
It appears to me that Leo is promoting sedition and possibly treason because he believes SCOTUS will back his play. FEDSOC needs to go, and the “conservative” SCOTUS supermajority must de diluted if not impeached.
It's about time America fights back against Leonard leo and the federalist society they are domestic terrorists in my opinion they use the law to terrorize us and to try to harm us.
I believe it's imperative to expose Leo and his crew with a full-throated media (social, mainstream, entertainment) campaign. People hate Project 2025 when they learn about its sinister plans. They will do the same regarding this Opus Dei mess but only if they know about it. That's why Leo, et. al. like operating in the shadows like termites rotting away the foundations of our democracy.
It’s not conservative ideas anymore, it’s funding for authoritarian government. He can just go jump in the lake.

Porter, your answer to my note is beautiful thank you so much for taking the time to write. I too.
Janis, I loved your comment, not only because you ended with a key phrase from my early years - "he can go jump in the lake!" Perfect!
Well, now we know how old we are! 😂
Exactly, Janis!
Let's not pollute the waters any more than we already have.
He needs investigating along with his organization 💯 percent.
Leo is an American Terrorist and once Kamala wins and hopefully we have a new AG, the DOJ should go after all these Traitors like Leo.
I want Leonard Leo to be a thing of the past. I’d like to have his activities investigated and if he’s broken the law, I’d like to see him prosecuted.
WTH is WRONG with Garland and the DOJ?!
Garland needs to be replaced. PERIOD!
Wasn’t Leonard subpoenaed by a senate committee?
Yes. I’m sure he has plenty of butt buddies there slow walking it for him. Or he’s ignoring it like a MAGA patriot.
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/leonard-leo-subpoena-supreme-court-senate-democrats-judiciary-committee/
As another model Catholic he is immune
Right?? He is way too cautious, and afraid to do anything.
I don’t get it either. Why are these lunatics not being investigated?? I’m sure he’s known to him and the DOJ. He has to drop the hammer on these sick twisted individuals before the threat becomes reality.
Way too late. Leo has a project “Red Hat” in which the nutjob is trying to pick the next pope!!

The fuckhead running it has been a Catholic barely 3 years. These guys are career election interferers.
He went from being a local judge (essentially free of politics) to an academic (mental masturbation politics & no real deadlines) to a politics-infested DOJ. Along that trajectory, you can pretty much intuit why Garland is afraid of his own shadow. He is a pox on this country and democracy. Probably fills more adult diapers per day than Trump.
We need a DOJ who is fearless!
Yep.
He's way to timid to be in charge of prosecuting the blatantly corrupt behavior of the GOP and SCOTUS. Kamala needs to replace him with Jack Smith and if the GOP won't confirm him, then just take page from their playbook and make him a temporary like Deadbeat Donnie did for so many positions. 😉
Well, right now DOJ has enough to do... after the election, plus DOJ will be a wall for a little while if the unspeakable happens.
It's frightening and it's gross that one man thinks it's his right to reshape our country. I can only hope people are paying attention.
Federalist Society is a tax exempt enemy of the American people.
They need to be investigated.
Any group that tries to take over the government and is tax exempt, needs to be charged and automatically taxed back to their first donation to a government member.
Hopefully, we win the Senate and the House when Mme. VP wins this election! We will be able to codify a lot of common-sense laws, set term limts/disclosure laws for SCOTUS/ appoint new judges/ overturn Citizens United/ kill the filibuster and the Electoral College... what else? Oh, there's more!
He needs to lose the tax exempt status and get investigated by the IRS!! PRONTO !!! 💰🤬🤬🤬

With her resume I have no doubt she knows a name or two for that job.
Leonard Leo wants to shove his antediluvian, reactionary bull crap down our throats against our will.
Good word, "antediluvian," I like it. I just increased my vocab...it'll keep me from having to be so verbose. There are too many wrongs that need to be righted that I need to talk about. ;-))

…election sewn up, which is why he’s call for the dark money he’s spread around like manure to be implemented in a different direction.
Take the time to watch the documentary on YouTube called “Bad Faith”. It’s a real eye opener.
Thanks!

Dems must legislate more . We must.
Absolutely!
They're NOT Christians. They're Wolves in Sheep's clothing!

Too bad the Magats are too _______ to realize it. These men are selfish, evil, greedy, power-hungry, inhumane, inhuman beings.
That is just plain hateful rhetoric. Why? We are all Americans.
This mofo needs to leave the country or be investigated by DOJ.

That has to be the goal!
I would love to know who died and left these shitheads ‘in charge’! We live in a democracy ffs!! These things are determined by a majority -
not some ultra wealthy wingnuts who think just because they have obscene amounts of money they’re in line for the throne!🤬
Shouldnt that pos just move to Russia? I mean they are looking for suckers and losers.
