1. These texts from the young republicans.....

It tells me that the racist hatred will need to be stopped from root to stem.....otherwise....it will rise again..... as we now know, 60's civil rights movement and legislation once successful now resurfaces from the youth of the 50's 60's crowd....

Globally, Nazi groups also never totally died out..... I don't know yet how to explain Benjamin Netanyahu...... other than he learned nothing from WWII.

7. Netanyahu has been in the revenge business too long.

[Swede]

9. I think his brother getting killed by terrorists has fueled his awful revenge ever since.

It's beyond madness what he has done in Gaza.

11. Netanyahu is proof that if you hate strongly enough and long enough, you become that which you hate.

2. Do you mean the leaked Young Republican texts?

3. 'White House Shrugs Off Leaked Chats from Young Republicans Praising Hitler'

"J.D. Vance is downplaying a leak of thousands of leaked messages from Young Republican leaders that contained racist and offensive language...the Vice President brushed off the messages, turning instead to criticize Democratic Virginia Attorney General candidate Jay Jones, who recently came under fire for messages he sent in 2022, in which he proposed a hypothetical scenario where he would shoot Todd Gilbert, then the Republican Speaker of the House, and wished that Gilbert’s children would be harmed."

“ 'This is far worse than anything said in a college group chat, and the guy who said it could become the AG of Virginia,' Vance said in his social media post, referring to Jones. 'I refuse to join the pearl clutching when powerful people call for political violence.' ”

I haven't seen any comments from Führer Trump.

8. I voted for Jones yesterday.

He may be flawed, and his comments may be tasteless, but remind me again, what 34 felonies was he convicted of? Until Republicans start actively disassociating from Trump, they have no right to lecture anyone on who is or is not a suitable candidate for any office.

10. I'll fix that.

Thanks

6. Hochul impresses

She has that no-nonsense, blunt New York way of looking at things. She can't be fooled.
