Liberal billionaire, apocalyptic climate extremist, and generally insane person Tom Steyer pitched a civil war earlier this week. It was draped in officialese, but that’s what it was, a pitch for open conflict with Washington.
He posted this five-point plan April 14.
To save you the reading, his first three points boil down to this: Create new laws and new investigations by which we can arrest ICE agents, arrest their leaders, and arrest civilian leadership.
The fourth point is even more insane: Fund and create a legal structure by which we can bring deported people back to California.
And the fifth is utterly insidious: Devise a “know your rights” propaganda campaign that will almost certainly encourage regular citizens into more (violent) confrontations with ICE, thereby inciting the conditions by which points 1-3 can be enacted.
It’s truly devious and the scary part is, now that Swalwell got sniped by his own people, it looks significantly more likely to occur.
(Republican Steve Hilton still leads Steyer in the polls, but Steyer is surging.)
