So grateful for his service and his sacrifice. My great uncle was a WWII pilot. His plane was shot down somewhere over the pacific by the Japanese. His body was never recovered. Here’s Uncle Max receiving his flight wings.
Many came back wounded physically and mentally.
I know my daddy did. He was covered in battle scars, had horrible nightmares and never ever talked about his war experience. I hills his bronze star and purple heart dear😓💙😁🐢💙
The number was closer to 75million.
Never forget that assholes like Trump never stay with in their own realm.
Hitler, Putin, Mussolini they all brought their shit to the world
27 mil. Soviet Socialist citizens were killed as a result of World War II trying to end Naziism. Many of those lives were lost before America joined WWII.
Putin was instrumental in the collapse of the USSR.
Now Putin's puppet's run your government. What's that euphemism of foxes in the hen house?
My dad survived but returned home with severe PTSD. He lost so many friends and saw horrific things, including the liberation of a camp by 82nd Airborne.
... and acted... let's not forget that the Nazis did everything in little steps. They didn't even know of all the cruelties they'd do later. Trump is already acting very fast with illegal detainments and invasion threats. Faster than the Nazis ever were
My grandfather was in the Phillippines, my other grandfather was drafted but ended up being too old since the war was nearly over. My great-grandfather tried to re-enlist but ALL of them did their part in the US to fight facism!
NAZI Elon in the White House and Germany ???🇺🇸
You can NOT use anything from Hitlers /Nazi identitet in a democratic free world .

Hell of a photo. My uncle enlisted at 16. Fought in the Battle of the Bulge, my dad was stationed in Burma for 4+ years. I still have his jacket and silk map of the CBI theater.
Exactly, including my grandfather's youngest brother who was KIA in the Battle of the Bulge. Thomas Edward Pugh. He was still a teen & sacrificed his life for me. I will never forget & will do everything I can to not allow his sacrifice to be in vain.
Isn't that what's capitalism is all about? Be there first, nail down the deal no matter what, and then if things go south, take the money and run, and let the others explain what happened.
Two of my uncles fought in WWII. One took a bullet to the head. He survived, but his hatred for the Nazis was palpable. I promise them I will never bend the knee to this Hitler admiring dictator wannabe or his Nazi sycophants.
There were others who tried and failed too take Russia and got caught in the wintertime. Mother Russia isn't kind to strangers, as Bonaparte found out.
Trump and the MAGA cult are betraying our WWII heroes who sacrificed their youths and their lives to save the world from fascism.
If you aren’t angry, you’re not paying attention and you’re certainly not a patriot.
The article referenced was from the second of Dec. I agree -- it *is* fantastically upsetting that the Harris campaign did not respond to all the calls for one -- evidence was & still is clear that there was an anomaly.
But they didn't and here we are. 👀😐 Best course of action now is to cont. to
This is fantastic.

KEEP STRONG, TAKE CARE, STAY SAFE ; RESIST WITHOUT VIOLENCE; STAY CALM, TRY TO SPEAK INTO YOUR OPPONENTS WISELY BY GIVING THEM ALTERNATIVES EVENTUALLY THAT HE WILL REGRET HIS ACTS WHEN IT WILL BE TO LATE FOR HIMSELF! BE SURE IF YOURSELVE!

As a German born in 1965, I am forever grateful to the U.S. and to every soldier sacrificing their life to rid us of Hitler and allow me to grow up in a (sort of) democracy. Which is why I simply don't grasp WTF is happening in the U.S. and also in Germany atm.
tbh, I'm more invested in U.S. politics than the German, probably because it's lacking any entertainment factor. The last I heard about banning AfD for good was that it's a long process and wouldn't happen before the elections. It makes you want to pull out your hair and scream in despair.
Very scary. You'd think we'd learn from the past. We did for a while, but as history goes on, untaught, it will continue to happen. We must make sure people remember. I wasn't born for a couple of decades, either, but we lost a loved one. I keep his memory alive and even named my child after him.
I blame the Internet and social media tbh. It allowed the 'wrong' people to find each other, and the lack of critical thinking skills manages to dupe and gaslight too many people. It's a travesty. Don't know how this can ever be stopped!

My grandfather gave up his youth fighting Nazis. He was at D-Day. Elon Musk just metaphorically pissed on his and the grave of every veteran that fought in that war.
He didn't get there by himself, he had a cult of fools who helped him. He strangled the truth so they only heard his lies, and the loud lies always win out.
Musk gave an endorsement speech to the AfD in Germany today via video link on a giant screen, telling the nazis at the election campaign event: "I’m very excited for the AfD, I think you’re really the best hope for Germany’s fight for a great future for Germany."
My dad was D-Day Plus One. Also behind the lines at the Battle of the Bulge. Reagan's election was bad enough for him. Were he alive, today's America would break his heart.
Thank you. Actually, he probably would be more angry than brokenhearted. Still, he and our mom raised my siblings and me to be aware and engaged, so the resistance continues!
My FIL and grandfather both served in WWII. My FIL came on the same day. He brought home a Hitler bronze statue to remind everyone about those horrors. We are shitting on their heroic actions.
My dad's oldest brother was in the medical corps in Italy. Their younger brother served in the Navy. My mom's brother volunteered to escort fallen soldiers from the Pacific. My oldest brother was career Navy.
The cite lists 55M total combined, however, other sources reference the higher figure. All may be an undercount given starvation, premature deaths and other categories.
Plus five deferments for bone spurs he never had, Paid off doctors for fake deferments, called all who died in the military suckers and losers, and now he's Commander In Chief of people he couldn't shine their shoes.

I'm hoping that a cheeseburger eliminates the threat soon.
Trump and his cult followers, Republicans in the House and Senate, desecrate the sacrifice of all Americans against fascist evil during that time.
He was way more coherent than Trump

The deliberate language used to dehumanise people.
"Approximately 141,000 American ground troops were killed in Europe — more than twice the number of those killed in the Pacific"
Tut-tutting (Schumer, etc.) ENABLES them.
You might just get them to FEEL SHAME!
They’ve just VOTED to CONFIRM the least qualified nominee EVER to be in-charge of our DEFENSE DEPT & it’s MASSIVE BUDGET, the PENTAGON & more!
He’s NO EXPERIENCE, is a DRUNK, assaults women & failed 2 small groups! BIG RISK 4 US
But it makes you feel better about your hate so it works for ya
Plus, Trump speaks like ALL THE CEOs that I have ever known...
You are talking about all of Capitalism
If you aren’t angry, you’re not paying attention and you’re certainly not a patriot.
Huge difference too complicated for fascists to comprehend.

Democrat politicians, your silence really does tell the voters a lot about your priorities.
Watching what you do, not what you say.
