People were tired of forever wars, so they elected Obama. Then they elected Trump because they were tired of forever wars. Then they tired of forever wars so they elected Biden. Biden ended the forever war in Afghanistan, and they were unhappy. So they voted for Trump again.

It is tragic that this person was put in a position where she lost her life for no reason other than to serve the vanity of a man determined to establish dominance over a city that hates him

National Guard member killed in D.C. shooting remembered for 'heart of gold'
The slain soldier’s former boyfriend recalled her empathy and generosity. “She doesn’t even have to know you and she’ll do anything for you,” he said.

This is how Toni Morrison defines it:
“Fascism talks ideology, but it is really just marketing” “the narrow but protective chasm between governance and business disappears.” “so that we will find ourselves living not in a nation but in a consortium of industries”

“Fascism talks ideology, but it is really just marketing” “the narrow but protective chasm between governance and business disappears.” “so that we will find ourselves living not in a nation but in a consortium of industries”
inthesetimes.com/article/toni...
![It [fascism] is recognizable by its need to purge, by the strategies it uses to purge, and by its terror of truly democratic agendas. It is recognizable by its determination to convert all public services to private entrepreneurship; all nonprofit organizations to profit-making ones— so that the narrow but protective chasm between governance and business disappears.
It changes citizens into taxpayers- so individuals become angry at even the notion of the public good. It changes neighbors into consumers — so the measure of our value as humans is not our humanity or our compassion or our generosity but what we own. It changes parenting into panicking— so that we vote against the interests of our own children; against their health care, their education, their safety from weapons. And in effecting these changes it produces the perfect capitalist, one who is willing to kill a human being for a product (a pair of sneakers, a jacket, a car) or kill generations for control of products (oil, drugs, fruit, gold).
When our fears have all been serialized, our creativity censured, our ideas "marketplaced," our rights sold, our intelligence sloganized, our strength downsized, our privacy auctioned; when the theatricality, the entertainment value, the marketing of life is complete, we will find ourselves living not in a nation but in a consortium of industries, and wholl unintelligible to ourselves except for what we see as through a screen darkly.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:gc4mqpfyskckxzss4n5bvuga/bafkreihjg5wwri22wjhcouhkzzbcmqcjcp2mhyjubpkjxrxrwoihsjslbu@jpeg)

For reference: Trump's lowest approval rating in his first term was right after January 6th, at 34/62. He is as or nearly as unpopular now as he was when January 6th was fresh in people's minds.
Four polls in recent days now have Trump in the 30s, with 3 at 35%-36%: 2/

I will keep my review of the Russell Crowe film, Nuremberg, succinct.
As a sequel to the biopic, "Stephen Miller in the White House," Crowe creates a character with some depth that seems to stray from the real life Stephen Miller.

Loans for these fields will be limited to $20,500 a year, compared to “professional” degrees, where the limit is $50,000 a year.
