Goebbels rises.

just a historical reminder for no apparent reason and because there are no echoes here at all… ** ** around things I find interesting.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weimar_Republic

The Great Depression, exacerbated by Brüning's policy of deflation, led to a surge in unemployment.[11]

On 30 January 1933, Hindenburg appointed Adolf Hitler as chancellor to head a coalition government; his Nazi Party held two out of ten cabinet seats.

Von Papen, as vice-chancellor and Hindenburg's confidant, was to serve as the éminence grise who would keep Hitler under control; these intentions severely underestimated Hitler's political ambitions.

By the end of March 1933, the Reichstag Fire Decree and the Enabling Act of 1933 were used in the perceived state of emergency to effectively grant the new chancellor broad power to act outside parliamentary control..

Hitler promptly used these powers to thwart constitutional governance and suspend civil liberties, which brought about the swift collapse of democracy at the federal and state level, and the creation of a one-party dictatorship under his leadership.”

… still a lot of work to be done to reverse the progression here…

"I've mentioned once or twice that I think the U.S. journalism industry has been completely hollowed out by consolidated corporate power, resulting in a bunch of bloodless trust fund brunchlords who cosplay as journalists but routinely pull their punches when it comes to truly challenging the extraction class. It's not subtle. The U.S. establishment press has failed, repeatedly, to accurately describe to the public how fascists – with the enthusiastic support of our most prominent industries – hijacked the government and did profound generational damage to everything from civil rights to public safety...No institution has symbolized this more in the last few years than the New York Times." #uspoli #journalism karlbode.com/the-new-york-time…

part two Anyone surprised by today's ⬆️ announcement must have missed this news back in June..? "Senior officials from Denmark, Greenland and the US have been meeting since January in an effort to address a diplomatic dispute over the Arctic territory following repeated calls by President Donald Trump to acquire the island.” #USpoli #Denmark #Greenland

🇺🇸 Your News was always somewhat Censored, then AP was banned. Now an immediate ban on CNN , Politico, and others...and more to follow.. "..other fake news media outlets to follow." "Media Outlets shouldn’t be able to constantly write or report fiction and lies when they’re covering the President of the United States, the Trump Administration, or the United States of America," So, what now soon you won't have any news?🤷‍♀️ #USA #USpoli

PM Carney's comments after the EU speech really solidify how serious these talks are. The US is no longer a trusted trading partner thanks to the Trump administration, elected by the American people. I stand behind Carney on this move 100%. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6TCrt9egKJA #canpoli #cdnpol #EU #Europe #EuropeanUnion #uspol #uspoli

Well, on first blush, the bond market seems to like The Fed's decision to hike rates in the US by 25 basis points. The question is, what will Trump do? He'd pledged to tariff the entire planet if The Fed raised rates, an action that would itself increase the inflation that The Fed is trying to fight with the rate increase. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2026/sep/16/us-federal-reserve-votes-hike-rates #USPol #USPoli #USPolitics #RateHike #TheFed #FinancePolicy #Economics

The US government has destroyed my online presence (email & website). No I'm not joking. I had my whole website emilyartist.ca hosted on Autistici/Inventati Noblogs platform, as well as my email. On Aug. 28, the US government declared Autistici/Inventati a terrorist organization due to their stated antifascist ethics. They're a tiny Italian volunteer-run web server that only supports people working for kindness, justice, and peace. Now I have to rebuild. #fascism #uspoli #peace

For everyone that screams "25th AMENDMENT NOW!!!" all the time about #Trump, I'd like you to consider, for a moment, the consequences of that:

  • #JDVance was installed as the VP Candidate as a result of a deal between Trump and #PeterThiel

  • Peter Thiel & JD Vance are ardent followers of #CurtisYarvin, who advocates for Techno Feudalism, essentially a return to medieval times where nobility owned manors complete with resident serfs

  • The Office of the President of the United States has been vested with unitary powers via Supreme Court decisions and congressional indifference that would make the founding fathers sick

What do you think a JD Vance presidency would look like given that?

I wonder if PM Carney always knew that the US was negotiating in bad faith, and that their terms could be changed after the fact, but waited until the final humiliating demands were made by the US team before walking away. Now Carney has widespread national support and perhaps more respect from our other allies and partners. #USPoli #CdnPoli

“...this is deeply troubling for thousands of small Canadian exporters. “A full 40 % of small exporters sell items on the new 10+ page list of items facing 50 per cent tariffs. Many CFIB members have said this will end their US sales, and some have reported this will kill their businesses. “I hope that discussions continue and an interim deal can be quickly found.” Dan Kelly, pres./ CEO of the Canadian Federation of Independent Business #Cdnpoli #USpoli

🇨🇦 Welp, you gotta admit he does have a sharp wit.😏 PM Carney takes a swipe at Trump.🇺🇸 "I would like to inform you that the teleprompter has ceased to function. Unlike a certain world leader, I do not view this as a conspiracy,” Carney said to laughs at the news conference in Toronto." #USpoli #USA #Canada #Cdnpoli

“At the time, I did not have a sophisticated understanding of why he was the enemy, but he was, and now, I understand, especially, that Reagan and his loyalists were intent on reordering society's priorities, and at the top of their list were the feelings and fortunes of the rich.” 🤑 #uspoli #oligarchs #eattherich #politics #economy https://newrepublic.com/article/211854/dream-blue-texas-2026-richards?utm_source=flipboard&utm_content=topic%2Fliberal
