quote:

A former adviser to Bill Clinton warned that the United States is becoming a "totalitarian state before our eyes." "The state has now crushed businesses, kept us from gathering in free assembly to worship, as the First Amendment provides, is invading our bodies, ... which is a violation of the Fourth Amendment, is restricting movement, fining us here in New York state. ... The violations go on and on and on," feminist author and former adviser on Clinton's reelection campaign in 1996, Naomi Wolf, told Fox News’s Tucker Carlson on Monday. She added that the U.S. is "moving into a coup situation, a police state" due to shutdowns over the coronavirus. She added that what she is seeing in the country is outlined in her book about the 10 steps "would-be tyrants always take when they want to close down a democracy." "Whether they are on the Left or the Right, they do the same 10 things," Wolf said. "And now, we’re at something I never thought I would see in my lifetime. ... It is step 10, and that's the suspension of the rule of law. And that's when you start to be a police state, and we’re here. There is no way around it."

I don't always agree with Naomi Wolf, but I respect her because she isn't a hack. She's willing to call out her own side.

This is about nothing more than promoting a book. I don't disagree, but she's just hucking for a buck.

I've read a lot of Naomi Wolf. She's one of the few very pretty feminist women (or was about 30 years ago).
She was in charge of making Al Gore more attractive to women voters (white women didn't like him according to polling).

She also explains why feminists should not marry. They should have multiple boyfriends. It's because no man can be 'smart yet simple', 'strong yet weak', 'assertive yet submissive.'

She wasn't exactly "hot" but she definitely always had a sexy sort of aura about her. I hadn't seen or thought about her in 10 years until I saw her on Tucker last night. She doesn't look bad for 62 (I had to look up her age, but that's about where I would have guessed).

Naomi Wolf is one of those “lick your finger, stick it in the air, and see which way the wind is blowing” types. She’ll take whatever side keeps her in the limelight.

She’s a sloppy researcher and thinker. Blind pig who found an acorn with this newest revelation.

If only she had read more TigerDroppings, she would have known better than to vote for ChinaJoe.

She knew this was going to happen but still voted for China Joe.

The TDS is strong in this one.

Bill Clinton was George Washington compared to the slime we have today.

(sigh)


The Republican lead Congress and the Republican President were the ones that initiated the lockdowns and the first stimulus which was a payoff to mega corporations and their Chinese suppliers. There's no way we can get to where we are with both parties. They are all complicit.
