Herr Goebbels Angered By Anti-Nazi Wit

Comedians Banned For Humorous Remarks on Leaders

RERLIN, Feb. 4 (U.P. When Propaganda Minister Paul Joseph Goebbels yesterday he called it "society rabble and intellectual shobs," for laughing at comedians who make Nazi leaders the butts of their jokes.

Goebbels turned his anger upon nouncing that five German actors had been banned from the stage for publicly rediculing Nazi party and state functionaries. He denied that there was any lack of humor in Nazi Germany, but said that it must be kept "good- natured, decent and clean."

"There is plenty of humor in Germany, more than enough," he said in a three and one-half column editorial in the Nazi party's newspaper Voelkischer Beobachter. "But we do not per-

mit ourselves to be ridiculed." ner Finck, actor-author; Pete Sachse, vaudevilie comedian, and Helmut Buth, Wilhelm Meissner and Manfred Dlugi, the latter three members of a vaudeville combination known as "The Three Rulands." The five were said to have been warned re- peatedly to stop making jokes about the Nazis.

If Repubs win back Congress, they will convert original Medicare to β€œvoucher support.” Beneficiaries will purchase private insurance at a higher rate and be at the mercy of corporations who can deny care and charge more based on age. An A1 program is now in use in some states to determine coverage.

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social: "I think he should start with Shreveport, Louisiana, and Speaker Johnson's district that has 6x the per capita murder rate of Nancy Pelosi's San Francisco. What about the carnage, Mr. President, in Shreveport? Why aren't you protecting the folks there? What bullshit."

The Department of Justice is pretending it needed to talk to notorious liar Ghislaine Maxwell to know the truth about Jeffrey Epstein, when it is concealing thousands of documents about him that don’t lie. It’s a sick farce.
