Today I visited the concentration camp (Thereseinstadt) where my ggrandfather was imprisoned. It's something I fairly consciously avoided doing in the 12 years I lived in Europe. It was, as you may imagine, a fairly emotionally charged thing for me.

The Texas GOP wants to confuse voters in the 18th congressional district with redistricting, special elections, runoff elections, primary elections, etc.

It’s a lot to keep up with, let’s clear it up.

This is AMAZING journalism. The New York Times went through Trump's court filings related to what is happening in Chicago. There are videos, testimonies, and photographs. You can see this for yourself.

Judge Dismisses Georgia Election Interference Case Against Trump

The extremely poor judgment exercised by Fulton County DA Fani Willis in hiring a man she was dating as a Special Prosecutor to lead the case against Trump doomed the case.

If you've never read _Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee_ or _Custer Died For Your Sins_, I highly, highly recommend them.

I mean, they're incredibly disturbing and heartbreaking, but also really, really important.

There must be SOMETHING that his senility-addled brain is interpreting as "a stopped war".
Has anyone ever figured out what the Mad King is talking about when he says he stopped [insert ever-growing number] wars?

First it was 5, then 6, then 7, and now EIGHT?

I mean, we know that he's suffering from swiftly progressing dementia, but what does he THINK he's counting?

oh this is absolutely what i think. i think they feed him fake polls and outright AI slop
At this point, I wonder if he isn't lying when he says he has "my highest Poll Numbers, ever" since it's entirely possible that's what his aides are telling him. It's quite likely that there's an entire Potemkin village built around Trump right now.
