Open thread for night owls. Foreign policy expert: 'This is not a drill'—U.S. sliding toward fascism
https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2017/12/1/1720323/-Open-thread-for-night-owls-Foreign-policy-expert-This-is-not-a-drill-U-S-sliding-toward-fascism “When Fascism came into power, most people were unprepared, both theoretically and practically. They were unable to believe that man could exhibit such propensities for evil, such lust for power, such disregard for the rights of the weak, or such yearning for submission. Only a few had been aware of the rumbling of the volcano preceding the outbreak.” ~Erich Fromm, Escape from Freedom (1941) |

How do you tell if a politician is lying?
His lips or pen are moving. |

Yes, It Appears Trump Is Planning an Imperial Military Parade (No, Seriously)https://www.redstate.com/sweetie15/2018/02/06/yes-appears-trump-planning-imperial-military-parade-no-seriously/ This is not really something we do in the United States. I mean, tin pot dictatorships, sure, but we’ve never had the need for it. Then again, we’ve never had such a petty, emotionally stunted little troll as president. According to the Washington Post, Trump’s vision of a military parade through Washington, as a show of our military might, is increasingly likely to become reality. Trump’s admiration for authoritarian strongmen is well known, at this point. He needs to flex that muscle. |
