This speech is over 400 years old. It is gripping even now. He could be speaking of Steven Miller, Donald Trump, JD Vance, Tom Homans. It is devastating: "This is the strangers’ case

Taken together—the racial homogeneity, the Cold War religious framing, the idealized citizens—the aesthetic here aligns closely with white Christian nationalism as a default civic identity. #holdfast

Like in the years 1930’s, France is right but is too weak to act alone. We need german support face Poutine like the british support face Hitler.

All you need to know to realize “Heritage American” is racist bullshit is those who use the term don’t include Black descendants of enslaved people. (Which I say as someone whose ancestry here traces to the 1600s and includes a signer of the Declaration of Independence and a Revolutionary War hero.)
For those not following at home, “Heritage American” is a category of white supremacy covering people whose ancestors were white folks who were pioneers.

Does anyone know the exact text of the impeachment article that got Andrew Johnson impeached?
Here it is:
"Resolved, That Andrew Johnson, President of the United States, be impeached of high crimes and misdemeanors."
That's it.

No Kings for the record exists because of the grassroots effort to impeach Trump for tyranny.
It was an astroturfed protest by billionaires.
We are already dwarfing their organic momentum. People are talking and the voices are only getting louder.

The total goes up to 92% if you include support for the continuation of Medicare and Medicaid.
Only 7% said there should be no government involvement of any kind in health care coverage.

I don't envy young people today in very many ways, but they're so fortunate that ADHD is often recognized and treated appropriately these days instead of being misdiagnosed as a series of character flaws.
In psychological terms, what is described in the post above is called “task paralysis” or “initiation paralysis.” It’s part of executive dysfunction, not “laziness,” and different from “procrastination” in that it often occurs even in contexts in which the person strongly DESIRES to do the activity.
