If you haven't listened to Rachel's "Ultra" podcasts, take today off and listen to them. They will rock your world.

We didn't defeat fascism in 1945--we just set it back on its heels, then took the rest of the 20th century off....... It's back now, round two.

A good interview. But that's the thing about MS. Maddow, her interviews are good whether she's the interviewer or the interviewee.

American Bund from my studies.

Yes! This complete presentation is 100% true and the American ship of state is in perilous waters. Yet I still think there are enough Americans to defeat trumps Party and extreme hard-right segments trying to poison our democracy. If our FBI, Secret Service and DOJ fail us in rooting out any events planned like Jan 6th, well I hope we here in the streets can turn back the tide.

Thank you Joinfortmill. Thank you, Rachel Maddow.

I am not afraid of these modern Hitlerites, they will go down like any rabid dog. I do fear the poison that is spreading because of the media like Fox News etc.

Keep up the good work. I remember my parents talking of Joe McCarthy and the Red Scare tactics that Hitler used to cause Germans to fear. Plus his hatred of Jews and minorities.

We need to mobilize every voter to help GOTV among their friends and family at the very least
