Bondi on Fox:
"People protesting immigration enforcement raids were members of what she described as “organized crime” syndicates.

“They are no different than [notoriously violent El Salvadorean gang] MS-13,” she said.

can you imagine? The AG of the US equates peaceful protest w/ organized crime.

“Trump has influenced the culture of the church far more than the church has influenced Trump. When a pastor declares at a ReAwaken America rally that he has ‘come ready to declare war on Satan & every race-baiting Democrat that tries to destroy our way of life…,’ he is imitating Trump, not Christ.”

The message here seems to be “let’s give Argentina’s dictator $40B instead of helping our own country, and use military force here in the US against ‘illegals’ & citizens instead of using it against Venezuela.”

To impose nationalism on citizens, Hitler used very big monuments. The weaponization of architecture was 1 of his strongest forms of propaganda using classical Greek/Roman architecture b/c it was used in a time when only whites had rights making classical architecture a display of Nazi Aryan beliefs

A model of President Trump's proposed triumphal arch to commemorate the country’s 250th anniversary was seen on the Resolute Desk as the president held a press conference in the Oval Office on Wednesday.

When asked on Wednesday who the arc is for, Trump told CBS News’ Ed O’Keefe: “Me.”

Q: This has been reported for a while. Cory Mills was accused of beating a girlfriend in his DC apt. Are you concerned about these allegations?

“The people in the group chat aren’t ‘kids’ but full-grown adults. By scanning public records and media reports, Mother Jones determined the ages of 8 of the 11 participants in the chat: They appear to range from 24 to 35.”

IOW- they’re full grown Nazis, JD.

No one in the GOP Hitler chat was a "kid"

We checked. Sorry, JD Vance.
