DONALD TRUMP HAS made no secret of his desire for revenge.
On the campaign trail, he joked about being a dictator on “day one” in office, pledged to jail journalists, and threatened to retaliate against political foes who he felt had wronged him.
Now, just days after he secured a second term in the White House, Congress is already moving to hand a resurgent Trump administration a powerful cudgel that it could wield against ideological opponents in civil society.
Up for a potential fast-track vote next week in the House of Representatives, the Stop Terror-Financing and Tax Penalties on American Hostages Act, also known as H.R. 9495, would grant the secretary of the Treasury Department unilateral authority to revoke the tax-exempt status of any nonprofit deemed to be a “terrorist supporting organization.”
Then you are not paying attention. Look how the corporate Democrats cozyed up to the neocons and the Cheneys. They really don’t like Trump. The CIA establishment is deep blue. The party switched.

I don’t care if people can’t tolerate different perspectives on the left and feel the compulsion to cast out and silence dissent.
That is genuinely what it looks like to me. I pay attention.
