This shows their ignorance of the recent past in post-war Germany. There is NO place for the AfD in Germany or the United States. Let them listen and then have a post analysis of their double-speak.
After NYS Young Republicans club was disbanded for praising Hitler, the NYC Young Republican club chapter is rolling out the red carpet for leaders of Germany’s Nazi-cosplaying AfD party.
I condemn it in the strongest of terms, as should my New York GOP colleagues. The AfD is not welcome in NY-10.

Threatening the lives of our nation’s lawmakers, violating the rule of law and weaponizing the DOJ are all grounds for impeachment.

Secretary Noem finally said the quiet part out loud: asylum seekers are here legally.
That admission means ICE is violating federal law under her direction as they ruthlessly assault and deport people with pending asylum cases.
The truth finally comes out.

I agree, new, well-informed candidates, please!!
The GOP blocked extension of the ACA subsidies. This is morally repugnant, and also everybody knew this fight was lost the second that Senate Dems surrendered on the shut down last month. In the coming primaries, we're looking for Dems who will actually use their power and fight back.
The Senate struck down both a Democratic and a Republican-backed proposal on health care.
