She called out Musk’s salute in a social media post…and then lost her job at CBS. www.jsonline.com/story/news/p... - ThreadSky

This is how it starts. 1930s Germany here we come.

On 30 January 1933, Hitler became Chancellor.
Not long after, he freed several thousand imprisoned Nazis, many were his Sturmabteilung, in a 1933 amnesty... and away we go
