The catastrophic speeches and crowd reaction filled with vitriol and lies at CPAC last week call forth the atmosphere of dictatorial regimes of the past including Hitler, Stalin, Mao, PaPa Doc and other vicious dictators whose regimes were built and sustained by fear and lies.

It calls to mind a quote from George Orwell, “In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.”

Citizens, beware the lies and Stalinesque groveling to Trump by so many Congressmen and Senators.
