This was the 15th time #Trump has addressed #CPAC…. When he was out of power, his freewheeling speeches could be dismissed as the ravings – or “weavings” – of a madman. Even during his first term, his #extremist rhetoric came w/some expectation that the democratic guardrails would hold.

But as America & the world have discovered during his first month back…, Trump is unbound, unhinged & looking for blood. He took the stage at CPAC brimming with confidence & basking in chants of: “USA! USA!”

The crazy just doesn’t stop…

#OathKeepers founder #StuartRhodes who was convicted of orchestrating his #FarRight #extremist group’s #Jan6, 2021 assault on the US Capitol, showed up Wed on Capitol Hill, a day after he was released from prison by #Trump.

Rhodes who was convicted of #SeditiousConspiracy in one of the most serious cases brought by #DOJ met w/at least one *LAWMAKER*& chatted w/others.

By including #EnriqueTarrio, the former leader of the #ProudBoys, in his extraordinary #pardons for the events of #Jan6, 2021, Trump granted clemency on to a man whom prosecutors have described as a savvy, street-fighting #extremist who helped his compatriots in “Trump’s army” initiate an assault on the Capitol.

Until the #pardons were issued, Tarrio, 42, was serving a 22-yr prison term after being convicted of #SeditiousConspiracy & other felonies for his role….

#US #Military Service Is Strongest Predictor of Carrying Out #Extremist Violence
From 1990 to 2010, about seven persons per year with military backgrounds committed extremist crimes. Since 2011, that number has jumped to almost 45 per year, according to data from a new, unreleased report shared with The Intercept by Michael Jensen, the research director at National Consortium for the Study of #Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism, or START, at the University of Maryland. theintercept.com/2025/01/02/mi

The Broader Push to Rewrite #History.

Israel's assault on #Palestinian #heritage goes beyond fabricated #archaeological narratives—it’s a #systematic effort to erase history and consolidate control. Here are more key aspects of the campaign:

#Looting of #WestBank #Antiquities :

For decades, #Israel has #exploited the occupied territories' rich archaeological sites, #smuggling thousands of #artifacts to build its #colonial narrative. The new bill seeks to #institutionalize this #theft, granting #extremist officials unchecked authority over excavation and #HeritagePreservation in Palestinian areas.

The Role of the Israeli Antiquities Authority:

Under the guise of #AcademicResearch, the #IsraeliAntiquitiesAuthority frequently removes artifacts from the West Bank, exhibiting them in Israeli #museums without acknowledging their Palestinian origins. This process not only strips Palestinians of their #cultural history but also bolsters Israel’s claim to the land.

Settler-Led Excavations:

Settler organizations like #Elad are at the forefront of #illegal excavations, particularly in East #Jerusalem. These digs disrupt Palestinian neighborhoods, displace families, and create #tourist sites glorifying biblical narratives while erasing the #multicultural history of the region.

Linking Settlements to #BiblicalClaims:

Israeli settlement expansion is increasingly tied to archaeological claims. By declaring areas with supposed biblical significance, such as #Hebron or #Shiloh as part of #Jewish heritage, the #llegalOccupation justifies #annexation and denies Palestinians access to their land.

The International Fallout:

Despite warnings from Israeli #archaeologists and global institutions, the government continues its #unilateral moves. If the bill passes, Israel risks severe isolation, as #CulturalTheft violates international conventions, including #UNESCO protection of #CulturalHeritage during conflicts.

These moves are not just an assault on history—they are an extension of the colonial project, reshaping the narrative to legitimize an occupation that erases Palestinian identity. The stakes go beyond antiquities; they encompass the right of a people to their past, present, and future.
