yup.

thehandbasket.coRepublicans don’t have a Nazi problem—they are the Nazi problemA spate of recent revelations have shown the ideologies and their adherents are one and the same.

This week’s main story is about how more and more white nationalists, antisemites, and Nazi sympathizers seem to be integrating into the Republican Party, how some of them are currently running for office, and how old you can be for JD Vance to consider you “a very young boy.”

A U.S. government official condemning an entire group of people. Shameful. And his ignorance of history is equally appalling.

“I do not think we can break the cycle in this country without criminal accountability”

A group of former federal prosecutors and human rights lawyers is coming together to investigate political corruption and law enforcement violence that it says is being ignored by the Trump DOJ. "The rule of law is on life support, but it's all of our responsibility to make sure it doesn't die."

"We need to stop pretending the biggest terrorist threat to this country is coming from somewhere else." White Christian nationalists, racist militia groups, and rabid Trump supporters stormed the Capitol on January 6.

Muslims didn’t storm the Capitol on January 6, try to steal an election, or overthrow our government. White Christian nationalists, racist militia groups, and rabid Trump supporters did. We need to stop pretending the biggest terrorist threat to this country is coming from somewhere else.

Barack Obama: When you've been campaigning as long as I have, you can tell when an election comes along that just feels a little bit different. After 2 years of chaos, cruelty, corruption, and incompetence, the likes of which we have not seen in modern times, you get a chance to say enough is enough

The difference is that those buildings and interiors were a natural product of their time and culture. It’s not 1837 and we’re not in Europe.

I suppose wére learning in real time that our country has long been just a tad loco.
