Excellent post

A bird's-eye view of a former Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp showing a wide dirt pathway flanked by parallel rows of barbed-wire fences. Groups of visitors walk along the path, surrounded by the remnants of brick structures and barracks, now reduced to foundations. Green grass contrasts with the somber history of the site, as the path leads toward a guard tower in the distance.

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers.

This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

Auschwitz took time.

Auschwitz is liberated | January 27, 1945 | HISTORY The Soviet Red Army enters Auschwitz, Poland, and liberates the survivors of the network of concentration camps—and finally reveals to the world the depth of the horrors perpetrated there.

A grim but essential memory: 80 years ago today Auschwitz was liberated. That there was an Auschwitz to liberate is unspeakably tragic. . .

Holy f*ck! Just days after his Nazi salute seen around the world, Elon Musk is speaking at an AfD rally about “German pride”, warning against “multicultural delusion”, and telling them not to feel guilty about the “sins of their great grandparents”.

Didn't T.J. Maxx donate to the Trump campaign?

NEW: The Chairperson for the Council of Inspectors General on Integrity and Efficiency has sent a letter to the OPP advising they consult White House Counsel on the legality of ousting 17 inspectors general. 👀

Remember when we discovered Project 2025 and they tried to gaslight us saying it was a hoax?

Newark NJ… ICE arrested citizens and a veteran in one of their raids today. And I posted this morning that Cheetolini suspended the Civil Rights department of the DOJ.
Are you seeing the bigger picture yet? 🤬🤬🤬

Egg prices are soaring again. Here’s why and what to expect Bird flu has killed millions of hens in recent weeks, shrinking the supply of eggs and hiking up prices at grocery stores.

The price of eggs in the US is spiking, mostly due to #H5N1 bird flu. Solving the problem requires urgent, important communications from the CDC & FDA* and rapid development of research by the NIH**

Right out of the gate they are detaining U.S. citizens and saying their “papers”are fake. It was always a lie.

World map with all countries in green except for the United States, symbolizing U.S. withdrawal from the World Health Organization. Caption from '@IdiotBenevolent' says "The updated World Health Organization map is a sick joke."

The joke is on us.

There seem many clueless about what the WHO does, including some journalists. The eradication of small pox, orchastration of the AIDS resonse, ZIKA, Marburg, Ebola, redistribution of health care, vaccines and many monitory systems.

If you don't know, educate yourself before you comment.

"This just shows how much the orange guy wants to be a king, not a president. He really wants to believe that his signature alone is powerful enough to get rid of things that he does not like. Such childish, reckless behavior should not be allowed in any democracy, yet here we are. " - Tim Mitchell

Hegseth’s former sister-in-law says he believed women shouldn’t vote That tracks with the tenets of a religious movement he's involved in.

Buried toward the end of the press release was another eye-opening detail. Pete Hegseth allegedly said, “women should not vote or work and that Christians needed to have more children so they could overtake the Muslim population.”

UM.

VICTORY! Federal Court (Finally) Rules Backdoor Searches of 702 Data Unconstitutional Better late than never: last night a federal district court held that backdoor searches of databases full of Americans’ private communications collected under Section 702 ordinarily require a warrant....

VICTORY! After over a decade, a federal court has declared that warrantless backdoor searches of US person’s communications collected under Section 702 of FISA is unconstitutional.

Trump just made it easier for his administration to spy on American citizens without oversight by kneecapping one of the only independent watchdogs that maintains a check on illegal government surveillance operations.

"The Department of Justice's guidelines for issuing pardons...look to whether the person pardoned will be violent."

We don't know what Elon Musk meant with that hand gesture but one of Germany's biggest newspapers Die Zeit calls it a "Hitler salute" and covers up the photo. (Nazi salutes are illegal in Germany, punishable by up to three years in prison.) www.zeit.de/kultur/2025-...

1. Been pondering something. If an undocumented immigrant and a MAGA voter showed up at my door hungry, what would I do? Answer: feed the hungry, they are human beings in need. When did that become so divisive? However it’s not lost on me that our MAGA neighbors would likely tell us both to fuck off

Each email and call log is a different violent rioter who assaulted me in the tunnel. If you are defending these people who brutally assaulted the police, maybe you ARE NOT a supporter of the police and the rule of law to begin with. If you did you would want accountability.

This is a very concerning move, especially in light of the evolving avian flu outbreaks and peak respiratory disease season across much of the US.

These are the agencies that inform healthcare providers and help us make timely treatment decisions.

Without their guidance, we are flying blindly.

Trump officials revoke Biden policy that barred ICE arrests near "sensitive locations" like schools and churches The Trump administration revoked a Biden-era policy that prohibited ICE arrests at or near schools, places of worship and other "sensitive locations."

HELL IS HERE And the next 100 days will tell the tale of whether we survive it or not ...

📌Here’s one you need to read and share. Sure, I wrote it, but I’m not fucking around here.

📌Trump has flooded the zone on social media today saying the military will be his No. 1 priority as he gets at America’s true enemies. He means us, of course.

📌WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF A NATIONAL EMERGENCY
