Not only that, but if German elites (esp von Papen and Hindenburg) hadn't caved, Hitler wouldn't have been chancellor. People think Hitler rode into office on some big democratic wave, when in fact he snuck in through the side door due to the incompetence of a few men.
I’ve been going through every NYT daily beginning in 1933 and it is remarkable how quickly Hitler consolidated power after becoming chancellor. It was sudden, and there was very little resistance.

I was with a realtor in the late 1990s looking at houses, and I saw all these expensive homes with big trucks and kid toys in the yard. I said: This is nuts. The realtor nodded and said:" Yes, but you realize that it's not my job to tell people *not* to buy houses, right?
I used to drive around many areas with HUGE homes, large RV parking and expensive cars parked out front and wonder "how can there be SO MANY PEOPLE who can afford all of this?", until I finally answered my own question: They can't.

This is obscene.
Two panels commemorating the contribution of Black American soldiers towards the liberation of the Netherlands in World War Two have been quietly removed from a cemetery in Limburg. It follows a complaint by right-wing think tank The Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 95th day out of the last 107.

12 days of work in 107 days.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

PS: One can’t help but wonder now if the initial rumours about Jeneroux crossing the floor were actually true, and he changed his mind as a result of pressure.

Because this leaked this morning.

By the numbers...

This is how AUPE overwhelmingly voted in their strike vote today.

With over 70% turnout, 98% voted for a strike.

Of 11,031 votes, only 219 voted against a strike.

You might think the UCP would start to notice a pattern...

The GOP was already freaking out about the impending Trump effect on the midterms.

Now they’re fucking terrified.

Trump’s voters have become like the members of the administration, delighting in the crassness and obscenity that pours out of the president and his circle whenever they are challenged. But policies suffer and the public is poorly served.

Toronto: not an igloo in sight

Population (GTA): 6.4M, 4th largest city in N.A.

Ranked one of the safest cities in N.A. even though it is considered the most multi-cultural city in the world where 160 different languages are spoken.

Tolerance is our superpower.

🎵Okay, Blue Jays! Let’s Play Ball! 🎵

Buddy is ready for the game, clearly ready to steal bases (in addition to socks, balls and pretty much anything else laying around)!

Buddy is already a winner, with a pending application. Wish him luck!

When SHOCKINGLY LOW IQ Donald Trump talks about "low IQ people," he is inevitably talking about Black people. Yes, he's always been that racist.

This graph is incredibly misleading, inflating the belief numbers with those who answered "neither agree nor disagree". What if those respondents just didn't want to answer? Or didn't know what the question referred to? Boo on UBC for promoting this.
