Happy August! The month was named after Augustus Caesar in 8 B.C.E. Before that, it was Sextilis, the sixth month on the Roman calendar, which I suppose today would have been called Sextember, Sextober? Either way, probably a good thing they changed it to August.

80 Years After Dachau Concentration Camp Liberation, Witnesses Remember The anniversary of the end of the Nazi era comes at a pivotal time for Germans. The last of the survivors, liberators and perpetrators are dying, as the far right is becoming more established.

Reminder: the First Amendment protects everyone who resides in our country. It doesn't matter if you have a green card or a visa or if you're undocumented. The Supreme Court has repeatedly affirmed that any person residing in the United States, regardless of status, is entitled to 1A protections.

What if the secret to winning elections is somehow Trump's syntax. We need a guy to say stuff like "But we're going to abolish billionaires and we'll be doing it very soon. They'll be paying very high taxes but it'll be very fair. And frankly they haven't paid taxes in a very long time"
