US’s Terrorist Listing Of European Far-Right Group Signals Fears Of Rising Threat—Both Abroad And At Home

I had my water heater go out yesterday. Tried to find a plumber. Nobody is working until monday. I guess the same goes for TPM. Four day weekends for everyone.

That’s OK a couple more days with cold showers and no Morning Memo is fitting for America that seems to be going out of business in anticipation of the inaguration of King Donald this winter.

All these fascists are coming from the same countries they always have. Protestant countries, where the poor were armed against their own countrymen by the king and murdered a generation.

I still can’t believe my bro lived in NC for a few years. He was transferred from Hanover. My nephew had to take a drug test when he applied for a part time job at grocer. My sister in law had to do prayer meetings at the florist shop she work at. My brother had to learn how to play golf.

It must of been hell! They got out and went back to Germany.

Thoughts on the new morality should Trump get elected. We all know about the rights being rolled back. Voting rights. Reproductive rights. Reading and educational rights. Just generally a return to Salem, Mass circa the 1600s.

Next? Watch for The Right to push for bans on HIV drugs and care covered by Medicare & Medicaid. And similar pressure on private insurers to limit or drop such coverage. It fits their MO to a T.

Important to recall that plumbers are who got Nixon in trouble. And, it was once thought that bathing more than once a week was unhealthy, that showers could give you pneumonia. An option would be for you just to wait out this period without routine levage. You would be left in peace by those of sensitive olfactory pursuasion save, perhaps, by your beloved animal companions who, rather, might delight in more intense fragrance. Also, they would lend attestation to the evils of bathing.

He sounds like Jules from Pulp Fiction.

“The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and goodwill, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother’s keeper, and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee!”

Justice Robert H. Jackson was wrong. Apparently the Constitution IS a suicide pact.

The Constitution is not a suicide pact - Wikipedia.

I could be wrong about this, but I believe they started out in the Bay Area as “cremation and scattering ashes at sea” venture back in the 70s.

clearly, not written by Trump

guess the RNC thinks that the latest Supreme Court decision might not be sitting well with the electorate

I saw their tv ads my entire childhood and remember their slogan
" Spend your money on the living,not on the undertaker."

In the echelons of world murderous assholes Benito is an also-ran. Worth noting Italy worked as a conglomeration of city-states up until relatively recently.

People ascribe all kinds of totalitarianism to the RCs, when they controlled nothing by physical force. No army of the Vatican.

Also, Italians are famously shit as an army.

Knights Templar? Crusades?
