.@hitlersrhetoric is now #onsub, and I’m making time and room to sit with my old friend, anxiety. 🤞🏻🙏🏻✍🏻

I am very happy to see this out in Central European History Society, and am grateful to colleagues Jennifer Evans Hedwig Richter @ankahajkova and nathan stoltzfus for their candid and stimulating contributions, from which I learned a lot, and for the editing and support of Monica Black.

Hey Joe Biden, getting into the policy weeds is a *losing* debate strategy with Trump. You gotta channel Muhammad Ali—float like a butterfly, sting like a bee. Provoke the joke. Attack the quack. Jab the scab. Let him eexplode and implode.

The media has so forfeited their basic responsibility of reporting facts that a convicted felon is standing on the largest debate stage in the world just LYING HIS ASS OFF while two polite moderators DON'T LIFT A FUCKING FINGER to correct him with facts. That's YOUR ONLY JOB.

There has never been a debate with less fact checking from the moderators than this one. Just a complete abdication of responsibility.

We're looking at an authoritarian trying to convince us to adopt his version of the country as an apocalyptic hell scape when in fact the economy is booming, employment is high, and the US standing in the world is stronger than it's been in ages. Will it work? I think no.

Deep breath, Joe Biden. Regroup. Stop taking his statements seriously. They’re not. Give him the rope he needs to hang himself, don’t fall into the trap of trying to refute the Gish Gallop. #debate #DebateNight #Debates2024

.Joe Biden, maybe just say “I don’t know wtf he’s talking about. Do you? Does he?” And then stop talking. Do it at least once, maybe twice, even thrice! Let people think about his ridiculousness instead of dipping into the weeds.

Biden ain’t going nowhere. It’s June. Let go of your pearls and dry your bed. He lost a debate. Bad. But it’s June. You’re not replacing him. So leave your random combinations in your chats. You’re not nominating Gretch or Gavin or Wes over Kamala. Stop it. Organize. Vote. We

Biden had a bad night. Also, Trump is an existential threat to democracy, the Republic, the Constitution, and our most fundamental liberties, in addition to being a fraud, a liar, a felon, a degenerate, a global embarrassment, and an ally of evil. Toughen up. Fight's on.

With stories about how awful Pete Hegseth is circulating and the Kremlin weighing in excitedly about Kash Patel for FBI chief, I figured, what the heck? Maybe I'll repost my op-ed about Trmup's cabinet picks, which features an image of Hegseth. #fascism commondreams.org/opinion/trump-…

“The fundamental weakness of Western civilization is empathy,” Musk said. This is *literally* Nazi rhetoric. Hitler attacked empathy and humanitarianism as a Jewish plot to unsettle natural human inequality. It’s not hyperbole to call this what it is: Nazi shit.
