Revolts are contagious: In 1956, from Poland to Hungary, each revolt inspired another. My father-in-law is in history books for trying to launch a revolt in Romania, inspired by Hungary.

Joined by a Romanian historian, I share his story: sites.libsyn.com/124622/how-t...

Trump: "I don't think we're necessarily going to ask for a declaration of war, I think we're just gonna kill people that are bringing drugs into our country. We're going to kill them. They're going to be, like dead."

5/ The other group Trump is prioritizing? Members of the German political party AfD, who the White House says are being “targeted” for their views. This is a neo-Nazi party that defended the SS.

Trump could soon make America’s refugee program a tool for white nationalism

The White House is considering a plan to overhaul refugee admissions in favor of right-wing whites.

3/ Trump plans to drastically slash the numbers of refugees admitted.

But it gets worse. The new policy reportedly will effectively allow only white foreigners to qualify. If you're not white, you get turned away.

It's unreal - like we're back in Jim Crow days.

Why is Apple, Microsoft, Lockheed Martin, Blackstone, Google, OpenAI, Amazon and others financing the destruction of the WH and desecration of the grounds, something that is infuriating to huge chunk of the American population? Do you hate your customers that much?
