Prescient. From Rare Color Footage of the Defeat of the Wehrmacht, World at War.

Only a few weeks after Aachen fell, the U.S. Secret Service stated that many of its citizens were maudlin, had eyes for nothing but their own suffering, and were unwilling to reflect on their own role during the Third Reich.
And NO ONE admitted to having been a Nazi. No one questioned whether they might bear any personal responsibility for all that had happened.
Writing in her diary on Oct 3, 1944, in a southern suburb of Aachen, Clara Trafford made a farsighted comment. "I have had enough forever and a day. But in 20 years’ time, there will again be enough idiots around who will ignore what has happened and be willing to start the same misery all over again.

The old rulebook is gone. It's not coming back and we all need to accept that. The DOJ is weaponized. the GOP is rigging elections. Trump is literally bulldozing the White House.

Democrats need to operate under this new reality, fight hard, and play by the same rules.

"Black organizers had noticed gaps in the campaign’s strategy for reaching Black voters. To address them, they led canvasses in working-class Black neighborhoods...By early October, Mamdani had taken a commanding lead over Cuomo among Black voters"

Amen.

There was no one unified and tidy movement, but rather multiple overlapping ones with rival leaders and disparate constituencies, generational and sectional tensions, arguments over strategies and tactics, wildly different attitudes to capitalism and religion, focal points all over the map …

also, how does Platner claim that he had no idea what a Totenkopf was or that his tattoo was one until a week ago when this Reddit conversation he was part of 6 years ago was all about a soldier with a Totenkopf where people discuss the difference between an SS Totenkopf vs. a Punisher skull etc.

milsurptrader40 points6 years ago
The totenkopf on the dude first on the left is a good clue.

[−]dragonsfire24228 points6 years ago* (last edited 6 years ago)
has literal human skulls on uniform
"Ignore that we're the good guys"
Edit: just so everyone is fully aware it's a joke

[−]Colonel_Potoo36 points6 years ago
Many soldiers still use the skull as an emblem (see the Punisher skull for the SEALs) or regiment emblems all around the world. It's a way of making others fear them and all.
Also I understand the reference btw.
NOT SAYING THE SS WERE GOOD GUYS DON'T GET ME WRONG

[−]762Rifleman6 points6 years ago
see the Punisher skull for the SEALs
Punisher is a kind of unofficial emblem and it's more something some individuals do. I've seen it more on civvy and moto stuff than on actual servicemen.

[−]P-Hustle3 points6 years ago
When I was in Ramadi in ‘06 as a Marine grunt, the SEAL platoon we worked closely with for the deployment all had the Punisher skull spray painted on their armor carriers.
There’s no question it’s far more prevalent on all the dumbass Grunt Style and Nine Line shirts these days, but the teams definitely adopted it for a while

Odds are this aggressively did not happen. But it would of course be just as unconstitutional to spend money donated to the government without a duly enacted appropriation as it is to spend tax money that way.

Trump: "By the way, a friend of mine called us the other day and he said 'I'd like to contribute any shortfall you have because of the Democrat shutdown. I'd like to contribute any shortfall you have with the military.' Today, he sent us a check for $130 million. It's gonna go the military."

The thing to understand about fascism is that most people you know will be bought off. Bought with promises of peace and stability, bought with business opportunities or paid with actual cash. Most people aren't going to resist. Get used to it and get used to operating in that environment.

Over the past week, the president said the DOJ should pay him a quarter billion dollars, bulldozed half the White House to build himself a gaudy ballroom, bragged about murdering civilians in international waters, pardoned some more criminals, directed federal prosecutors to indict his opponents ...

SCOOP: A Trump official tells
@nypost
that the administration favors Paramount Skydance to buy Warner Bros. Discovery – and a number of rival bidders are likely to face stiff hurdles from US regulators in the blockbuster auction. “Who owns Warner Bros. Discovery is very important to the administration,” a senior Trump administration official told On The Money. “The Warner board needs to think very seriously not just on the price competition but which player in the suitor pool has been successful getting a deal done. And that points to the Ellisons.”

A freedom-loving people will not stand for the corruption and the power grabs we’re witnessing daily in our country. That's why millions of Americans took to the streets a few days ago, and it's why elections like the Virginia governor race will show the path to a better future a few days from now.

Just to be clear, #SCOTUS has done nothing to indicate any interest in this case besides calling for a response—something that a *single* justice can request, and that is *not* remotely predictive of a cert. grant.

Everything else is standard practice for *all* cases filed in the Supreme Court.
