In high school, I used to wonder how a vibrant democracy like Germany could devolve into a fascist hell-hole in the 1930's.
Very few MAGAts have read history books and we all know Trump never reads either.
Those who fail to learn from the mistakes of history are doomed to repeat them.

If you’re a Democrat with any real power, this is how you do it. Jason Crow went on Fox News and didn’t posture, didn’t flinch, didn’t dodge. He brought facts on Venezuela and absolutely wrecked the host. This is how you speak. This is how you go on Fox. And this is how you ruin them.

It was an overwhelming bipartisan vote! Either the many republicans who voted for the release knew he would just ignore the law and knew they would be complicit going forward or the understand that he is ignoring Congress and will take action!

The Epstein Files Transparency Act is a law, passed by Congress on November 19 with an overwhelming vote. Complying with it was not optional. The Department of Justice did not comply.
I want to make sure this is very clear.

I wonder if crime will be "rising" right before the midterms
Trump announces he’s pulling the National Guard from Portland, LA, and Chicago but threatens that “We will come back, perhaps in a much different and stronger form, when crime begins to soar again - Only a question of time!”

Republicans...your hero Reagan must be spinning in his grave when he sees how Trump has bent America over for Putin.
BREAKING: A Russian newspaper today — “America no longer sees our country as a threat… The US leader’s philosophy is closer to the values of Russia’s president, not the politicians of the Old World… he sees Europe as a liberal stronghold that must be destroyed…”
Read that again.

Trump is always “making progress” despite the fact that Putin never agrees to compromise on any of the maximalist demands he has had for three years. What are we making progress on? Getting Ukraine to make more concessions while Putin laughs? That is progress?

Zelenskyy calls Russia’s claim of a strike on one of Putin’s residences a “complete fabrication,” a lie designed to sabotage diplomacy, justify more attacks on Kyiv, and excuse Moscow’s refusal to end the war. He warns the world must not stay silent as Russia tries to derail peace.

Trump cutting US aid has killed more Christian Nigerians than anyone else ever could. And if we don’t stop him, it will get even more deadly.

You almost have to feel bad for an ugly old man with no family or friends to keep him company on Christmas Day that he makes 200 crazy posts ranting about everything under the sun.

There’s something unspeakably shameful The United States letting people go hungry.
Not because its government doesn’t fix it —
but because tomorrow a few private Americans could, and never notice the cost.
That’s the part that sits wrong.
