Babies for the Führer. WTF

"Wer zu spät kommt, den bestraft das Leben." 😀

But you could not have done it without Solidarność in Poland, Victor Orban (god what happened to him) and the Hungarians, the Czech pressure on the border... And Gorbatchev said no to Honnecker when he wanted to deploy tanks.

It’s a crime, too.

Are you implying that anti-fascism became a thing during the rise of fascism? I’m shocked.

It was an epic, defining failure by Mitch McConnell to not impeach Trump after January 6th: a political calculous the chose partisan power over the welfare of the nation, in the starkest terms. History will not be kind to him; he betrayed the nation, while knowing better.

This is a solid ruling: 'Congress left little doubt about the importance of an independent MSPB and Special Counsel free from “any control or direction by the President.” .... [they] “exercise statutory responsibilities independent of any Presidential directives.”' (citing legislative history)

Annoying sloppiness: Horowitch sees anti-conservative bias in the fact that in 2023 98% of faculty donations at Yale went to Democrats. But there was no conservative alternative. Republicans have abandoned conservatism. Not donating to the GOP in 2023 is anti-autocracy, not anti-conservative bias.

Idiotic. If the excess of other branches consist in the law breaking and defying the constitution, it is precisely the role of the judiciary to check those excesses.
