Given all we get from Wun Dum Fuc is a speech on trophy wives, drag queens and spreading democracy around the world at gunpoint, I thought you might like to hear a few words from a REAL PRESIDENT on the importance of Memorial Day.
Over to you Mr President

If you have never seen this 2013 speech from President Obama on immigration, it’s worth a watch: “A lot of folks forget that most of us used to be them. It’s really important for us to remember our history. Unless you’re one of the first Americans, a Native American, you came from some place else. Somebody brought you”
This is what Trump is waging a campaign to destroy. The only losers from his spiteful retribution campaign is America.
These talented scientists will not be silenced by Trump and his sycophants, they will find a more welcoming home for their research in other parts of the world, leaving America an intellectual and scientific backwater
I STAND WITH HARVARD. DO YOU?

Stop whatever you're doing and watch John Larson. We are witnessing the Nazification of America and doing nothing about. I have never been so ashamed of my country and the people who were elected to represent us. 🥺👇
I have always had respect For Senator Durbin, and now I have a little more. It’s an indictment on the Republican Party, that they just sit cowering in the corner begging a convicted criminal and now Russian asset, not to hurt them.
A century ago, Germany’s democracy was hijacked by a bombastic and charismatic tyrant — and in this five-minute video, you’ll learn how he did it. Why did I produce this? Because I believe that history is speaking to us, and all too often, those who refuse to learn from it are doomed to repeat it.
As you watch, imagine filling out a Bingo card filled with Germany 1933/USA 2024 parallels: big rallies, rage-filled and hateful rhetoric, simple answers promising quick and easy solutions to complicated problems, empty promises of a great-again future, scapegoating outsiders, and political enemies silenced on day one. And notice the caring wisdom and concern from my German friends as they share these lessons from their dark history.
It’s hard to understand how Trump could, on the eve of a tight election, paint a picture of Liz Cheney before a firing squad by actually saying, “Let’s put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her, OK? And let’s see how she feels about it when the guns are trained on her face.” You can’t get into the mind of a dictator with an insatiable appetite for power — but you can recognize the playbook they all seem to follow.
Just watch this clip. It’s excerpted from my hourlong public television special “The Story of Fascism in Europe,” which is streaming free (and ad-free) at https://t.co/YA10kVH0V8. If you care about our democracy and love our country, it’s hard to stop watching.
When I produced this in 2018, I hoped this day would never come in our country. But November 5th is upon us. Please share this with anyone in your life who might need a reminder that the stakes are high...and this is very real.
