HISTORIC PEACE DEAL
Chamberlain rates Hitler meeting "Ten out of ten' 
by Our Munich Staff Piers Inourtime

The Prime Minister of the United States of Kingdom, Mr Neville Chamberlain, hailed his summit with dictator Adolf Hitler as a
triumph.

"We got along great," said the self-styled "Greatest PM Ever- Fact!" Critics questioned whether the Munich agreement had actually delivered peace in Europe, and worried that Mr Chamberlain might have been played like a ukulele in the hands of Mr George Formby.

"That's fake Pathe News" responded Donald Chamberlain. "I know Adolf likes me bigly. He told me that I'm a much better PM than Sleepy Stanley Baldwin, and that I've turned Great Britain into an economy that's as hot as a Gatling Gun!"

Mr Chamberlain was particularly pleased with a letter from Mrs Melania Chamberlain, which he had hand-delivered to the Führer, in which she expressed concerns about the future of children in Nazi Germany.

"Mr Hitler, you can single-handedly restore their melodic laughter,"
she wrote - or at least AI and Google Translate jointly did. The Führer
had to wipe away a tear - of laughter.

Mr Chamberlain was adamant that the Nazi leader should be trusted, because he was wearing a smart military jacket and tie, with a very respectful armband. Mr Chamberlain concluded, "Czechoslovakia can end the war tomorrow. It's up to them, not Mr Hitler, who simply wants peace. And Poland. And France. And possibly Britain!"

potentially the funniest thing he’s said yet
new york times post with picture of frowning donald trump (expression of a sinner) with headline ‘i want to try and get into heaven’: trump gets reflective on ‘fox & friends’ with caption “president trump dialed into “fox &friends” and revealed his newest and truest motivation for brokering an end to the war in Ukraine: he’s worried he might not get into heaven after he dies. “i want to try and get into heaven, if possible,” he explained. “i’m hearing i’m not doing well. i am really at the bottom of the totem pole. but if i can get into heaven, this will be one of the reasons.”

Participation in civil wars is usually not optional though I think. That's why they're 'civil'...

Isn't UDC still used though? Wikipedia seems to think so:

Poilievre secured a seat, but first needs CSIS security clearance before handling sensitive intel—or even briefings on foreign interference.
CBC spells out the absurdity: we’re meant to trust national security from someone who refuses the most basic vetting.

Interesting how early this is!
June 1933 -- around the time fascist #1 defaulted on WW1 Reparations I think, 'not much' else sts -- before Rhineland reoccupation, before he left League of Nations etc.

[Why are fascists /always/ frowning?]

Ukrainians didn't surrender in 2014, when the world refused even to recognize russian aggression.

Ukrainians didn't surrender in 2022, when the world expected us to fall in 72h.

Ukrainians won't surrender in 2025, either.

For us, freedom and sovereignty are not empty words.

A stable, democratic America was the lynchpin of the Western alliance and the international order Europe relies upon. The US isn’t that anymore, and it’s getting worse. The implications are massive, and still under-recognized, perhaps in part because they’re so big and unsettling.

I second this:

Too much attention in Europe being paid to Trump's incoherently futile diplomacy and not enough to his dangerously destabilising actions in US domestic politics

There is a very long way to go before this obscene fascism is terminated. From when the last fascist dictator's rampage started until en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nurembe... was ~10yrs, ~50m dead and much of Europe smoking rubble...

Hey fellow Canadians, you know that $20 billion in travel and tourism that we used to plow into the US economy every *year* by visiting America?

Why would any sane person risk traveling to a thuggish, fascist country like Trump's America?

Spend your money in Canada 🇨🇦 or in friendly, safe countries

Armed Trump administration agents wearing masks just showed up outside of Gavin Newsom’s press conference.

This is what rising fascism looks like.
