What if Thiel IS the "antichrist" or the "evil force" that will bring about Armageddon?

If, hypothetically, he was, this is exactly what he'd do, right? Try to persuade everyone it was someone else and he was a good guy?

On 17 June 1936, all police forces throughout Germany were united under the purview of Himmler and the SS.

Himmler and Heydrich thus became two of the most powerful men in the country's administration.

Reform UK’s new Councillor Jack Rydeheard, who defected yesterday was out campaigning for the Conservatives just THIS weekend.

A cynical person would say he’s jumped ship because his seat is up for re-election soon and he’s got the principles of a weather vane.
