Someone asked what happened to the casual Nazi at the end of WWII. The people who supported the Party
The answer? Suicides and murders. If they weren’t beaten to death or shot in the streets, they killed themselves
There’s a book called Promise Me You’ll Shoot Yourself by Florian Huber about it.

Oh fuck not again
This entire article gleefully and breathlessly describing how Dems are “finally starting to get the message” that they need to court the right and abandon liberal values in order to win. It’s positioning Newsom, Shapiro, and Emanuel as brilliant heroes who will save the party.

one of the most obvious lies imaginable (that wasn’t reported as such by our political press corps)

White House has no plan to mandate IVF care, despite campaign pledge
President Donald Trump has said he wants a “baby boom,” but critics say his administration has yet to make significant family policy changes — and that Medicaid cuts will hurt.

So Trump has been directly or indirectly responsible for canceling Colbert, PBS and NPR all in the span of one week?

I was skeptical that the MAGA majority on the Supreme Court would ever rule that Trump could run for president again but after today’s ruling I think they’d probably roll over and do that too.

Time for states to pass laws allowing people to sue fed agents. Read about it these "converse-1983" statutes here: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

@anylaurie16.bsky.social What you said about Jan Schakowsky falling down on the House floor was vile. She's 81, A+ progressive, & already announced her retirement. We're about the same age, what if it were your mom on the ass end of that "joke". Yes, the Dems have an gerontological problem.
