8 October 1942 | SS-Brigadeführer August Frank from WVHA wrote to Reichsführer SS Heinrich Himmler that the Office of Medical Affairs and Camp Hygiene had so far collected 50 kilograms of gold from the teeth of deceased prisoners for dental purposes of the SS. This supply would last for five years.

Happy 75th birthday to comics creator Howard Chaykin, who drew this fanboy a sketch of his Ironwolf character while crouched in a hallway of the Statler Hilton Hotel at one of Phil Seuling’s July 4th weekend comic book conventions back when he was 21 and I was 17. Tempus fugit!
Howard Chaykin's sketch of Iron Wolf in repose, looking at the reader, sword at his hip.

One of the more incredible stories out of LA this year has been how a taco review blog became the best on-the-ground coverage of ICE raids in the city.

They do a dispatch every day, follow-up on the kidnapped people (which almost no media outlet has done), and fact-check government claims.

#DEFAcember news flash!: the viewing deadline for these early Konrad Wolf films has been extended to Friday, October 10th. I'll try and do another of them this week before doing the film I'd meant to do in the first place to end the series this weekend.

Understand that the Reichstag Fire—the faked emergency Hitler used to seize power—is happening right now in America.

Trump and his goons are lying about crime and who they are arresting to provoke the violence they will justify martial law with.

It's the fascists' final maneuver to end democracy.

Das Schriftleitergesetz vom 4. Oktober 1933 war eines der wichtigsten Instrumente zur Gleichschaltung und Kontrolle der Presse im nationalsozialistischen Deutschen Reich. In ihm wurden die Erlaubnis zur Ausübung des Berufs und die Aufgaben des Journalisten festgeschrieben.
