With NATO, he said, “we hope to create a shield against aggression and the fear of aggression—a bulwark which will permit us to get on with the real business of government and society, the business of achieving a fuller and happier life for all our citizens."

The #GOP hasn't wanted to live in #Lincoln 's America since the nomination of #HarryTruman in 1948 when the southern #Dixiecrats walked out of the #Democratic convention that would eventually broaden the base of the #Republican party with #racists and #antimiscegenatists.

And he had to go back three times to be able to enlist because they turned him down because his vision was so bad. Next to Lincoln, Harry Truman is my favorite President. So underrated. #HarryTruman

#HarryTruman:
Once a government is committed to the principle of silencing the voice of opposition, it has only one way to go, and that is down the path of increasingly repressive measures, until it becomes a source of terror to all its citizens and creates a Country where everyone lives in fear.

@tarabuster.bsky.social @taradublinrocks.bsky.social HarryTruman used to say no one can get rich in politics unless they happen to be a crook. When Truman died in 1972, his estate was worth $1500.00.

#HarryTruman President of the
United States:
"I could never lend myself to any transaction, however respectable, that would commercialize on the prestige and dignity of the office of the presidency. Show me a man that gets rich by being a politician, and I'll show you a crook."

#HarryTruman dropped an #AtomicBomb on #Nagasaki #OnThisDay in 1945; this & the Hiroshima bomb a few days earlier were the worst war crimes of the 20th c. & didn't even accomplish their desired end of deterring the Soviet Union from building a bomb; quite the contrary

#HarryTruman dropped an atom bomb on #Hiroshima 80 years ago yesterday, incinerating over 100,000 civilians; he wanted to show Stalin that the US had the bomb in order to deter the USSR from developing its own; but it backfired, as Stalin ordered the development of Soviet nuclear capability...

#Trump is saying that the #Epstein Files (& I presume the parts with his name in them) were made up by #JoeBiden, James Comey & #BarackObama (& maybe the ghost of #HarryTruman?) so if true won't it be easy to show that they were manufactured lies against #DonaldTrump? Right?

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security. 
 
Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.
 
Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.
