“We look on Heinrich Ford as the leader of the growing Fascisti movement in America. We admire particularly his anti-Jewish policy which is the Bavarian Fascisti platform."

------Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf, 1925

Karr said "The more things change the more they stay the same." Well let's see: Henry Ford founder of Ford Motor Company. Elon Musk founder of Tesla Automotive Company. Henry Ford owner of The Deerborn Independent which published Antisemetic lies for 91 weeks blaming Jews for all ills in America including unions. Elon Musk owner of Twitter X, a pervasive platform spreding Antisemitism and hate in America.

If the Dearborn Independent newspaper could influence Adolf Hitler and other members of the Nazi party 10 years before Hitler took power imagine the damage Twitter X and other social media sites are doing to our country especially since Donald has found a receptive audience with neo-Nazis and white supremacists. Not hard to imagine.. Thank you Mary for this hard copy headline news.

The list is endless of the moments Donald’s behavior and vile comments should have ended his career, yet here we are. MAGA members still pray at his feet and consider him the Messiah. I was looking at furniture last month and the salesclerk told me in the middle of my questions about an easy chair if I knew what was really going on in the world? He said Trump was sent by god. Not the God I said and walked away. I nearly threw up.

Thank you, Mary.💙

I do NOT understand why people would vote for fascism over democracy.

Should Project 2025 have a more accurate title? Perhaps " Project Return To 1825."?

Driving to a doctor's appointment in Charlottesville the day after the riot, I stopped in to the LOWES Home Improvement store on my way down Rt. 29. When I walked in, at the very front of the store, the first thing I saw was a HUGE display of TIKI TORCHES!!!! I guess they were a big seller the day before when Tiki TORCHES lit the night while the white supremacists cried out "JEWS WILL NOT REPLACE US!" ...and a 35 peaceful protesters were injured and one woman murdered. My stomach turned over at the thought that employees had been instructed to move all those Tiki Torches forward to be more readily available to grab, pay and go. My Jewish, Hungarian- born father told me that one night, a train arrived at his town carrying soldiers who were supposed to rough up the Jews and TORCH Jewish homes Somehow, the news arrived before the train... and all the Jews showed up at the train platform with whatever makeshift weapons they could grab... pitchforks, and shovels, knives, and axes..no guns; Jews were forbidden to carry them. The soldiers arrived. The doors slid open.. The soldiers, momentarily confused, saw they had lost the element of surprise, and they would not be having their fun with the Jews. After a few moments, the doors closed and the Jews were safe for another day. The Holocaust was still 10 years away, and CHARLOTTESVILLE was 90 years in the future.

- Pulled Quote -

"Robert E. Lee was, until recently, the greatest traitor to the United States. The only positive thing you could say about him is that he attacked us from the outside, unlike people like Mitch McConnell and Donald Trump, who continue to try to take us down from within."

A. Lincoln:

"At what point shall we expect the approach of danger? By what means shall we fortify against it? Shall we expect some transatlantic military giant to step the Ocean and crush us at a blow? Never! All the armies of Europe, Asia and Africa combined, with all the treasure of the earth (our own excepted) in their military chest; with a Bonaparte for a commander, could not by force take a drink from the Ohio, or make a track on the Blue Ridge, in a trial of a thousand years.

If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide."

"You had people in that group that were there to protest the taking down to them a very, very important statue and the renaming of a park from Robert E. Lee to another name.”

I know many of the Trump trials are delayed or sidelined -- but is there no way to convict him of Crimes Against the English Language?

Meet and be absolutely aware of the "Maga confederate political domestic terrorist cult" they are not

are not the republican party or any political party of any sort they are the largest destructive threat and danger created to America, democracy, and people in the history of the idea of America. Created through the political system and led by the psychopathic liar, sociopath, and malignant narcosis Donald J. Trump. Now, what are we going to do about it? #1 vote to keep Donald in every form out of the white house and the entire political system #2 completely remove all who hold political seats that Maga cultist from the political system to replace with a revived entire conservative political party who are can be loyal to the oath to office.

If Trump-gets elected you will get more Nazis and White Supremacists arching in all your towns and cities. They are Trumps “ fine people”. I hope Black Men and People of Colour realize this…they will be looking for you.

Remember Hitler was elected by less than 39% of the vote I believe and then abolished elections none from 1933-1946 !

Mary would you please cover in detail the Dems plan to derail the 70 MAGAS in place in key swing districts and counties? HOW this will stop their refusal to continue counting ballots IF Kamala is winning AND HOW these biased election fraudsters (already in positions of power to determine the vote counts and registrations) can be removed well in advance of election day? Can get no news on this in Canada where I am in a rural area no msnbc
