The good White Christian women of Nazi Germany Despite what youโ€™ve read, most of them didnโ€™t...

The truth is, good Christian women supported Nazism beยญcause it benefited them, and it seemed to reinforce the cultural values that gave meaning and purpose to their lives. They believed God was in control and had blessed their culture and their leader...

We have lost our democracy because the media won't call a spade a spade. Trump is a white supremacist hate monger. The evidence is substantial and incontrovertible. The real question is why aren't all journalists reporting on his hate?

What a surprise that a woman who murdered her own dog is responsible for filling Trump's concentration camps with innocent immigrants.
No shame. She's proud and flexing like a Nazi. This is evil. And illegal. Call it like it is-media.

Let's frame what's happening in America honestly.

This is not a "crackdown on DEI". It's flat out racism and White Supremacy.

The Pentagon has marked 26,000 photos for deletion to purge evidence of diversity.

The photos include the 1st black pilots in WWII, the 1st women to pass infantry training & the plane that dropped the Hiroshima bomb because itโ€™s called the โ€œEnola GAYโ€.

This is real. Weโ€™re living in a horror story.

Interracial marriage did not cross 50% approval in the US until 1996, when I was 30 years old. Good political messaging drives opinion, it doesn't follow it.

SpaceX has received over $15B in government contracts and state grants and the only thing Nazi Muskโ€™s company has produced consistently is failed launches and high velocity explosions. This is what Iโ€™d call actual fraud and a real waste of tax dollars.

No Democrat should attend the State of the Union. Trump is a traitor and Dems need to start treating him as such. Democrats SAY Trump is an existential threat to democracy but then they ACT differently. They smile and shake his hand and go along with outdated pleasantries that normalize his deceit.

Lots of "Very Serious People" don't want to admit what is plain and obvious and in front of our eyes and explains so much:

Donald Trump and Elon Musk are two of the most ignorant and uninformed people to ever be allowed near public office anywhere in the western world.

It's obvious to all of us.
