Jews on the same side as the J6 guy in the Camp Auschwitz sweatshirt say the darnedest things.
This is almost word for word what xenophobes in the 1930s and 1940s said about Miller's Jewish ancestors and relatives. He's so hateful he couldn't possibly recognize that of course.

In just a few days, you can see SPINAL TAP II: THE END CONTINUES on various large screens around the world. I’d recommend it, if only for the greatness. And the loudness. Plus Junior Mints.

This photo was taken of miners at the end of their shift during the Gilded Age before they were unionized.
This Labor Day remember the blood, sweat, and tears that those before us paid to give the working class the basic rights we enjoy today.

It’s long past time you all stopped using “Congress” when you mean “Republicans”. Not a single Democrat voted for this hot mess of an appointment. This endless grind to maintain a non-partisan tone, despite the partisanship of our fascist reality, is willfully blind, & a betrayal of your country.
It’s not just that Congress allowed the CDC crisis. Key lawmakers, on your payroll, allowed it despite statements showing they believe RFK’s views on vaccines are wrong.
RFK can say he is doing what he believes; the lawmakers can’t.

Will Congress start doing its taxpayer-funded job?
Amid the turmoil over vaccines and RFK, a flicker of independence.
