Anyone who disagrees with Jamie Raskin is a fascist. He blathers stupidly in the clip below with a new definition of fascists. To him, they are Trump supporters, and indeed any Republican who challenges the election is a fascist. Naturally, his definition doesn’t apply to Hillary Clinton or Stacey Abrams.
His committee is Stalinist, and he’s calling Republicans fascists. As Tom Elliott points out, this Antifa-loving Democrat is a fascist by his own definition.
His sham J6 committee is holding its next committee meeting on October 13th. It’s so clearly meant to influence the elections.
Rabid partisan Raskin told Meet the Press is not sure if the January 6 committee will finish its work before the 2022 midterm elections and warned that the “forces” that instigated the riot are “still out there.” He will probably have to continue until 2024, especially if Donald Trump is the candidate.

I’d note that by his own definition, @jamie_raskin is himself a “fascist” since a) he tried to subvert the 2016 election, b) he was an Obama/Hillary worshipper, c) he has refused to disavow left-wing political violence in America

Evil and Ignorace appears to be systemic on the left…bad combination!!!
It is just plain childish leftism, anyone I do not agree with is evil. Raskin is trying to move into leadership,
Democrats are about to lose everything. Some seem to be so insane, that they are willing to destroy the World to hang on to power. They have to because if Democrats lose power, many will be prosecuted for crimes.
Has anyone ever asked any of these clowns for a serious definition of “fascist”, ad then the evidence that they are using the word properly? The MSNBC interviewer was not even a talking head, but a bobbing head, conveying agreement, seeming without thought or question.
This Rep. Raskin clown effectively defined the term by saying “we know that the hall marks of fascist political parties are a cult of authoritarian personalities based on a charismatic figure, a refusal to accept the results of democratic elections, when they don’t go their way and then a refusal to disavow political violence or … embrace political violence, and all of those factors are very much in the air for them.
