Brutal-if his was taught in our schools, frauds like President Toothpick would be laughed off the national stage. Instead he’s celebrated.
“We’re all Socialists Now” Wanna bet? I’ll tell you right now there is no way in hell I’ll ever see trucks of bodies being carted off to mass graves because either the 100 million of us with weapons will have stopped it or I’m dead.

Her grandparents were caught up in the Holomodor. Her grandfather disappeared and was never heard from again. Her grandmother was left to try and keep herself and her six children alive.

As an avid military historian, I’ve seen some of this before. Why didn’t Hitler help Finland, a country held as an example of Aryan goodness and beauty? Collaboration in the destruction of democracies. Why was Heydrich so successful in suckering Stalin into the purges of the Red Army? Collaboration and maximum political power. Why did Hitler attack the Soviet Union? Liebensraum and Red Army ineptnous demonstrated in Finland. Poland- collaboration and destruction of democracies. Isn’t national and international socialism grand? Glenn Beck did a documentary on this also and was savaged by the media, being labeled as a crackpot.
