I wonder what sort of political movement would ban another movement labeled 'anti-fascist'. Could it be that, by removing that 'anti' prefix, we might arrive at its opposite - or is just that too bold a conjecture?

“awful people don’t deserve to be killed, but they don’t deserve to be praised, either” is apparently a thought too complex for the pundit mind

History - not a broken record, but a fugue - does repeat itself, but with interesting variations on the theme.

For instance, in the country now attempting to reprise the role of the Third Reich, the new Horst Wessel has died on the 24th anniversary of the modern-day Hindenberg Disaster.

'It’s worth it to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment'

I wonder if his wife and children agree.

Both of the co-founders of Turning Point USA died from things that were preventable, but which they mocked and urged this nation to ignore. Bill Montgomery was killed in 2020 by COVID and Charlie Kirk was killed in 2025 by gun violence.

On the same day that Charlie Kirk was murdered, at least 3 teens, including the shooter, are reported to be in critical condition following a school shooting in Evergreen, Colorado. The only difference is that we've become numb to gun violence aimed at our children. coloradosun.com/2025/09/10/e...

A DHS spokesperson defended the detainment, accusing Sen. Padilla of failing to properly identify himself during Sec. Kristi Noem's press conference.

But multiple videos show Padilla clearly identifying himself as a senator.
Sen. Padilla pushed to ground, handcuffed for demanding DHS not lie
Forcibly removing a sitting US senator, as they opposed the president's immigration policy, is a part of a broader slide.

See this “thug” being managed by ICE and the cops? Yeah he’s super dangerous! Oh wait, no; thats California’s Senior Senator Alex Padilla who made the mistake of showing up at ICE Barbie Noem’s press conference to ask questions.

If a US Senator is not safe from being handcuffed and detained for free speech, none of us are safe.
