There is the underlying assumption that GOPers respect the law.

I think we can rule that out by now.

These investigations by GOPers are consistent with their other goals of attacking the rule of law. It's a transparent fascist farce.

Statism:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statism

So, yes Jeffee, that's what a fascist regime would say.

quote:

State socialism broadly refers to forms of socialism based on state ownership of the means of production and state-directed allocation of resources. It is often used in reference to Soviet-type economic systems of former communist states and, by extension, those of North Korea, Cuba, and the People's Republic of China.

quote:

Economic statism promotes the view that the state has a major, necessary and legitimate role in directing the major aspects of the economy, either directly through state-owned enterprises and economic planning of production, or indirectly through economic interventionism and macro-economic regulation.[13]

quote:

State capitalism is a form of capitalism that features high concentrations of state-owned commercial enterprises or state direction of an economy based on the accumulation of capital, wage labor and market allocation.

In some cases, state capitalism refers to economic policies such as dirigisme, which existed in France during the second half of the 20th century and to the present-day economies of the People's Republic of China and Singapore, where the government owns controlling shares in publicly traded companies.[14] Some authors also define the former economies of the Eastern Bloc and Soviet Union as constituting a form of state capitalism.

quote:

Politically, state socialism is often used to designate any socialist political ideology or movement that advocates for the use of state power for the construction of socialism, or to the belief that the state must be appropriated and used to ensure the success of a socialist revolution. It is usually used in reference to Marxist–Leninist socialists who champion a one-party state.

In the East Asian cultural sphere, including China, "state nationalism" and "statism" are both written as 國家主義,[a]

Not true.

Quote from the article: State nationalism, state-based nationalism, or state-led nationalism[17] is a nationalism that equates 'state identity' with 'nation identity' or values state authority. 'State nationalism' is considered a form of 'civic nationalism' and there are similarities between the two,[18][19][20] but this also has to do with illiberal, authoritarian and totalitarian politics; Italian fascism is the best example
