Not to worry, I'm sure the Trump Administration's antisemitism task force will be looking into this pronto and coming up with measures to counteract this trend.
Survey of GOP voters: nearly four in ten (37%) "believe the Holocaust was greatly exaggerated or did not happen as historians describe. Younger men are especially likely to hold this view (54% of men under 50 vs. 39% of women under 50)." www.lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2025/12/repu...

The EU was created in by people who lived through WWII and saw political and economic integration as a means to bringing peace and stability to the continent.
It is being opposed by Putin, Musk and the others who support Neo Nazis in Europe.

Trump assumes everyone else is as transactional and lacking in principles as he is, and is shocked when people can't be bullied or bought.
No go on quid pro quo. Trump is livid that he pardoned Rep. Henry Cuellar for nothing: wapo.st/4rIEXDd
Trump lashes out at Cuellar for running again as a Democrat after pardon
Rep. Henry Cuellar, who was charged with bribery in 2024, says he is firmly a Democrat but a bipartisan one who can work with the president.

Given that Republicans have been saying for over a decade that they believe “politics is downstream from culture,” we should probably assume that the fascist cultural products the administration is putting out are authentic expressions of their politics.

True, the Supreme Court can’t overrule or rewrite the Constitution. But they CAN “interpret” it. Therein lies the problem. Because this Court has perverted the law so many times, even clauses that seem thoroughly immutable can’t be considered safe.
There isn’t much for our Supreme Court to hear, the Constitution is already clear. And just to be absolutely clear: the Supreme Court does not have the power to overrule or rewrite our Constitution.

For those who thankfully have left Twitter, just know the site under Musk now fully belongs to Nazis and white nationalists.
This the present and future of the GOP btw. White supremacy, misogyny, cruelty & a delight in violence.
It's going to be an ugly rough road ahead but we have the majority.
