Republican events for a month now (including Inauguration Day!) have featured a prominent Nazi salute & legacy media outlets ignore it. Seems like a trend worth covering, no? Maybe access to the Nazi party shouldn't be prioritized??

The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

If Democrats were looking for an issue to rally around that can win, Trump and Musk just gave them that with Trump's vow to literally remove "millions of people off social security." He said by removing millions it will make SS strong. In reality they are coming to END Social Security as we know it!
