Thanks to Donald J Trump, the world is racing to complete catastrophe. It seems the only ones in positions of power to do anything about it are the same NAZI White Supremacy un American Zealots and sadistic shits who encourage his insane march to World War Three. Along, of course, with Dear Traitors bosses, the Epstein Class.

"If everybody's thinking alike, nobody's doing any thinking."
Next thing I'd want the traitor to learn about is how Patton wanted all the NAZIs dead.

Along with the rise of the right from the PTA and school boards, the guy led the Evangelical White to take over City Hall, county councils and then on to as many state houses and governorships, to putting a strangle hold on the federal government -- from the judiciary through both Houses to the now half-condemned Whites Only House.

(60,946 posts)I live in Burlington VT and about a decade ago, a right winger almost got on the school board running as a young parent with kids in school. If it were not for the way he reacted to a wonderful retired teacher who researched his background and posted locally by going to her house one evening and knocking loudly on her door, he might have gotten the votes After his verbal attack on this senior, he could not have been elected dog catcher. (An idiom that may not work as well after Noem!)
Burlington is a two party city - Democrats and Progressives. Back then there was one very moderate, likable Republican on the city council, but in recent years there are none.
If the right even targeted Bernie Sanders' hometown, they are probably trying underground everywhere.

The Preacher and Vietnam
When Billy Graham Urged Nixon to Kill One Million People
Jeffrey St. Clair - Alexander Cockburn
CounterPunch, September 27, 2017
Theres a piquant contrast in the press coverage across the decades of Billy Grahams various private dealings with Richard Nixon, as displayed on the tapes gradually released from the National Archive or disclosed from Nixons papers. Well come shortly to the flap over Graham and Nixons closet palaverings about the Jews, but first lets visit another interaction between the great evangelist and his commander-in-chief.
Back in April, 1989, a Graham memo to Nixon was made public. It took the form of a secret letter from Graham, dated April 15, 1969, drafted after Graham met in Bangkok with missionaries from Vietnam. These men of God said that if the peace talks in Paris were to fail, Nixon should step up the war and bomb the dikes. Such an act, Graham wrote excitedly, could overnight destroy the economy of North Vietnam.
Graham lent his imprimatur to this recommendation. Thus the preacher was advocating a policy to the US Commander in Chief that on Nixons own estimate would have killed a million people. The German high commissioner in occupied Holland, Seyss-Inquart, was sentenced to death at Nuremberg for breaching dikes in Holland in World War Two. (His execution did not deter the USAF from destroying the Toksan dam in North Korea, in 1953, thus deliberately wrecking the system that irrigated 75 per cent of North Koreas rice farms.)
This disclosure of Graham as an aspirant war criminal did not excite any commotion when it became public in 1989, twenty years after it was written. No one thought to chide Graham or even question him on the matter. Very different has been the reception of a new tape revealing Graham, Nixon and Haldeman palavering about Jewish domination of the media and Graham invoking the stranglehold Jews have on the media.
On the account of James Warren in the Chicago Tribune, who has filed excellent stories down the years on Nixons tapes, in this 1972 Oval Office session between Nixon, Haldeman and Graham, the President raises a topic about which we cant talk about it publicly, namely Jewish influence in Hollywood and the media.
Nixon cites Paul Keyes, a political conservative who was executive producer of the NBC hit, Rowan and Martins Laugh-In, as telling him that 11 of the 12 writers are Jewish.
That right? says Graham, prompting Nixon to claim that Life magazine, Newsweek, the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, and others, are totally dominated by the Jews.
Nixon says network TV anchors Howard K. Smith, David Brinkley and Walter Cronkite front men who may not be of that persuasion, but that their writers are 95 percent Jewish.
