Harris Boosts John Kelly’s Dire Warnings: Trump Wants ‘Unchecked Power’

Tulsi? Seriously? It is not either/or. She can talk about economics and the fact that Trump is a lunatic traitor. They are not mutually exclusive.

If Kelly had even one ounce of integrity he’d a resigned and told this story the day it happened. Screw him and the horse he rode in on. I wish him nothing but shame and ignominy of the rest of his skid marks underpants life.

Well it’s pretty clear to the folks with clear vision that Trump and his ReThug friends have both been fascists for a while, but Trump has been able to call this fake news and his sick sense of humor.

With Kelly’s direct testimony to the NYT’s Micheal Schmidt that Trump clearly is a fascist, the fake news now looks not so fake.

The question is, at this late date, is there anyone left to listen ? If there are, they either knew this already, OR exist deep enough into the cult that they can’t stand the truth. Hopefully some will come out of their trance.

When my kids were young we watched Band of Brothers incessantly. When they got a little older I let them watch Saving Private Ryan. I told my kids about my dad’s service in General Patton’s army, that he was two weeks behind the events depicted in the stories told by Spielberg, Hanks, et al.
My dad passed before my kids were born, but my kids were proud that he was among those who defeated Hitler and his Nazi Generals.
I think it would be good for Americans to revisit these two stories and substitute Trump and his sycophants for Hitler and his sycophants.

I think her elder-care thing for sandwich generations probably speaks to a lot of them.

I know most of us here do, but I wonder if voters realize how remarkable it is that most of tRump’s people are speaking out against him? What makes no sense is that people would believe that everyone is making this stuff up. Seriously everyone? The fact that they would listen to a network that paid over 767 million dollars for lying and all the Republicans that called him a horrible human being.

They went back to the original recipe and brewed some pretty good beer for a few years – that was back in the 2000’s, after Pabst took over Schlitz. And it was a pretty good beer.

The worst were always Blatz, PBR, Gettelman’s, Milwaukee’s Best, and Old Milwaukee, and just about any malt liquors, guaranteed to give you a hangover. Now, just MHO!

My dad fought the Japanese but it was the same idea, the same war. It is a wonder i am here typing this considering the brutal combat my dad survived.

Some of Hitler’s generals tried to kill him. Others had got drunk on the Kool-Aide and were all-in Nazis. Most were paralyzed by the personal oath that they had all been forced to take to the Fuehrer, and refused to take a stand; they just went on fighting to the bitter end. They were also afraid of being perceived by the German public as “defeatists” who had stabbed the Third Reich in the back. To this day, many in the German public are conflicted over whether the generals were right or wrong in trying to end the war. It should also be said that most of the German generals who conspired against Hitler during the war wanted to keep some of the territorial loot that Hitler had won, and most of them hoped that by eliminating Hitler they could persuade the western allies to break with Stalin andn let them join an anti-Communist alliance to stop further Soviet incursions into central Europe. That, Roosevelt and Churchill would never have agreed to: they still demanded unconditional surrender from Germany, whether it was Nazis or anti-Nazis who did the surrendering.

The whole issue is very complicated. Historians are still trying to get a full picture of the extent of anti-Nazi sentiment among the German military leadership.

None of this, of course, is known to Trump. And of course he’d like to force the American military to swear oaths of personal loyalty to him. If he gets a second term, he’ll probably try to force that issue. Would that prompt a military coup against him? I hope that we don’t let things tet to the stage of having to find out.

Vote–and stop the march of fascism now.

Oh yeah. Wolski’s on Pulaski St, North of Brady St. I used to play pool there. After you closed Wolskis’s you’d stagger over to George Webb’s for breakfast. I had a T-shirt way back when, that said “I closed Wolski’s.” And I did a few times…

Mr. H’s favorite bar as an adult was Track’s (on the Beerline, named because the Milwaukee Road moved the boxcars of beer from the breweries on the riverfront up the grade to Humboldt and Locust intersection.) The kids would skip school and raid the boxcars to get beer. My Tai Chi Studio was just a block up the street from Tracks on Locust. We would meet up at Tracks for a great fresh perch fish fry on Friday nights. And, oh, they had an incredible invitation only Christmas party with free full bar drinks and steak tartare, and shrimp, and everything you could think of.

Milwaukee was a real old beer town. Probably still is.

Trump: “We had to go back to 1798. That’s when we had laws that were effective.”

So, slavery, mercantilism snd fraud on a mass scale? Cue “Dixieland”!

I can’t be bothered, but let me guess. Sounds like “economic uncertainty” only set to a 2024 beat

Still danceable. Big thumbs up.
