Every few months now I re-read this "Who Goes Nazi?" piece from 1941 and am blown away by how it captures the people we are dealing with 80 years later.

Effective crime-prevention strategies focus on targeted interventions and investments in communities — and they are rarely controversial. Here are past successes that should be embraced: bit.ly/4neYVD1
What Actually Works to Fight Crime
The administration’s plans to fight crime by dictating state bail policy or deploying the National Guard won’t build long-term safety, but there are many evidence-based ways to reduce crime.

Many media outlets hid the full truth of Trump -- his background in organized crime, his Epstein ties -- out of fear, only to be obliterated by him in the end. Had they not self-censored then, they might not be state-censored now. When you hide the truth, you face the consequences.

In 2023, Charlie Kirk on his podcast said that Joe Biden should be executed. Exactly what Jesus would do, right, Cardinal?
Cardinal Timothy Dolan on Fox & Friends on Charlie Kirk: "This guy is a modern day St Paul. He was a missionary, he's an evangelist, he's a hero. He's one I think that knows what Jesus meant when he said 'the truth will set you free.'"

I hate it when weak-minded media such as the Washington Post say that DC crime is dramatically down but "many residents still do not feel safe." They're talking about an *information problem* more than a crime problem. Right-wing propagandists don't want anyone to feel safe.

Despicable. The weakness being shown by the leaders of our universities, media companies and law firms reveals a problem that will long outlast Trump. We're like a patient at the end of life who enters organ failure. We are experiencing institutional failure across a wide swath of our society.
The “deal” that Brown made with the Trump admin is much more extreme than is being reported. It includes government oversight of course evaluations and no barrier to government interference in faculty hiring.

sorry I can't get over how cynical this is. dude *just* voted for a bill that was pushed by the crypto lobby and left out any protections against Trump's corruption. *now* he's claiming to address the issue with a bill that will never pass? this is galling even by modern Dem standards
Donald Trump and other senior administration officials have made a fortune off of crypto schemes.
Today, I'm introducing the COIN Act to put a stop to this corruption in plain sight.
