A film that attempts to depict the Nuremberg Trials is certainly welcome at this moment, when genocide and fascist dictatorship have once more begun to threaten humanity.

<em>Nuremberg</em>: Where does fascist barbarism come from?
The film gives a largely accurate account of the Nuremberg Trials of 1945-46, but it seeks the cause of the Nazis’ crimes in their individual psychology.

Do people get it? The democrats aren’t standing up to trump with this.
(They mostly want to keep the nato-ukraine war machine rolling)

If they were making a stand, they’d specifically say that trump flouts the law, that he betrays his country, and they’re not.

There is no opposition party atp
All of the Democrats, however, shied away from identifying a specific military order from Trump that they believed to be unlawful, with Slotkin even saying that no such orders had yet been given, and that her warning was preemptive.
