Every time my Puerto Rican stepmom leaves the house, she takes her passport. And the worst part is that IC€ could smash her car windows in anyway, because the Supreme Court made it okay to profile her for driving while brown.

Surprised it wasn’t the “EPSTEIN/KENNEDY CENTER, whoops.”

At Hitler’s urging, President Paul von Hindenburg issued an Article 48 emergency decree ... “If any state fails to take the necessary measures to restore public safety and order, the Reich government may temporarily take over the powers of the highest state authority.”
Hitler vowed to end the “eternal battle” between the states and the central government by dismantling the federated system, crushing states’ rights, and forging “a unified will” for the nation.

Adolf Hitler was a master of manufacturing public-security crises to advance his authoritarian agenda.

He used inflammatory tactics and rhetoric to disable constitutional protections for the Weimar Republic’s 17 federated states, crushing their leadership and imposing his will on the country.
