I learned today that the militant Black Panthers and the comic superhero Black Panther were named completely independently in 1966. I always assumed that one had to have influenced the other, but no, it was just a complete coincidence.

ICE has to be dismantled, with every single incident like this investigated and prosecuted.

Yes.

But fascism is more than just racism. His entire economic mindset aligns very well with fascism.

I think there's also an ideology at play, though Trump often garbles it.

Why does Trump criticize Zelensky and not Putin? Because Trump thinks that criticizing Zelensky is punching down, while criticizing Putin is punching up. And Trump always punches down.

I don't mind you calling someone either a Nazi or a Communist as long as you tell me, convincingly, why that label is accurate. I can explain to you quite easily why Trump is, if not coherent enough to be a fascist, at least someone who traffics in fascism.

So many of these MAGA types, if they lived in the Soviet Union or Cuba, they'd be the most devoted of Marxists.

The fact that I'm a conservative makes more MORE interested, not LESS, in calling out actual Nazis.

Ukraine blows up Russian data centres and immediately and mysteriously online talk about Germany’s Far Right AfD virtually disappears. Stop Putin you stop the Far Right.

Uh oh, did someone’s website and personal account experience a big drop in activity after Ukraine hit a Russian data center?

"I am in the same room as the President of the United States and I would do anything to stay there."

St. Sabina Catholic Church in Chicago has placed more than 100 crosses outside the parish. Each bears the name of someone who died in ICE custody or during an immigration enforcement action. Union workers built the traveling memorial, which began at Holy Name Cathedral last month.

I do not think that people like Natalie Harp have any kind of a grounded political philosophy. I think they have a deep psychological need that they try to fill through cults of ideology and personality.

This is not what we DID in this country because we didn't have to worry about actual Nazis having any political influence before.

I would be totally up for this if my political opponents would only agree to stop hiring actual Nazis.

The conspiracy to deny Steve Bannon a haircut is getting out of control.

Amid ballooning inflation and corruption, it's getting harder and harder to find MAGA diehards in the diners of Trump country. But after much effort, we did. Here are their personal stories, their opinions, and what Democrats must do to understand them.

They are pretty well-funded organizations and, if the fraud they claim is really so prevalent, they could probably come up with some proof for less than the cost of a primetime TV ad.

I'm not saying no candidate should ever challenge election results. But if they do, they should be ready to present real evidence that will stand up in court. If a party feels its a real issue and wants to invest in developing that evidence, that's entirely their business.
