Retired attorney; Yanks/Giants fan. Never forget the hypocrisy of the flag-hugging draft dodger, and the murderous insurrection he incited and his party enabled. All in on the fight against fascism, and the nauseating hypocrisy of sanctimonious Republicans
Yeah, could be a variant of this.

Sure, what's the big deal with (another) sexual assault artist in a position of power, this one who can and will vote to end women's bodily autonomy? What's not to like???

This is a good description of the downside of being associated with "Jewish science" in Nazi Germany.

Heisenberg and Jewish Physics
During the late 1930's Heisenberg came rather close to becoming a victim of Naziism.
He was not Jewish, nor was he politically active. While Heisenberg was not a Nazi
party member, he was definitely a German nationalist and he probably detested
Communism even more than Naziism.
The thing that got Heisenberg into potential trouble was that he thought extremely highly of
Einstein's work on relativity, and he mentioned this in his classes. To the Nazis,
Einstein was the human incarnation of the devil himself. Einstein's values of pacifism,
equality, socialism, humanism, and of course, his being Jewish, was the very antithesis
of the Nazi idea of a good society.

And guess which group - the billionaires or the workers - is enabled, idolized, and literally funded by Trump and his Republican coterie, who triple healthcare costs while they provide tax cuts for the obscenely rich.

Yes, there was a flood of Jewish refugees from Europe and particularly Germany, and some of them - including Leo Szilard, Hans Bethe, John von Neumann, Edward Teller, Otto Frisch, Rudolf Peierls and James Franck - worked on the Manhattan Project that created the bomb.

Republicans pay lip service to veterans, while they cut their benefits at every opportunity, and Trump regards those who made the ultimate sacrifice as "suckers" and "losers".

Nazis had their racist "science" too, and used it to substantiate their bigotry and hatred of diversity. Of course, it was also the reason they refused to believe the incredible WWII bomber production at the U.S. Willow Run plant - too many black people/women.
Those bombers destroyed their Reich.

With the likes of Gabbard and Elise Stefanik, Weiss has demonstrated that women can sell out sell out their principles in service of their ambition, every bit as well as craven, sycophantic men like Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio and Lindsey Graham.

Bari Weiss is Tulsi Gabbard with a byline. With distortions, half truths and lies, she is the Vichy voice who fancies herself speaking Truth to Power, when she truly is just someone speaking to a fascist exactly the lies he wants to hear.

Right, how could Dems possibly be angry at a "leader" who's been feckless from the start, and who failed to hold his caucus together against the authoritarian who is trashing American healthcare?
Oh, and the word you were trying to use was "defusing" a funding fight, not "diffusing" it.
