They don't really bother with the small lies. Hitler wrote in Mein Kampf, “The great masses of the people … will more easily fall victim to a big lie than to a small one.”Grandma Lynn wrote: ↑Sun May 28, 2023 3:19 amI use to wonder how Hitler
got away with all he did,
the Jews, etc. Now I can

corruption starts.
And his buddy, Joe Goebbels, expanded on this:
“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”
This is how January 6 -- a three-hour frat party -- suddenly became an Attack on America on par with Pearl Harbor and 9-11.
Or how the "Greatest threat to democracy are MAGA Republicans."
Or the whole Trump Russian Collusion story that never seemed to end.
And now they have weaponized the DOJ, the IRS and the FBI, and have essentially turned the media into a propaganda organ of the state. Their treachery, greed and lust for power is boundless.
