  1. Back in 1982, when #ChiefJustice John Roberts was a 26-year-old #Reagan staffer, he wrote that #minority voting protections were “the most intrusive interference imaginable by federal courts into state and local processes.”

    By rescinding the #VotingRights Act of 1965 this past week, he and "conservative" pals Alioto, Gorsuch etc all just completed the #election rights stifling life's work that the young #RWNJ radicals dreamed about over 40 years ago...

  6. Spring Cleaning 2026 - #ContextAndPerspective on #war
    #Iraq / #Iran

    From my 'time capsule', some actual #truth and #history -

    News Headlines from 25 Years Ago

    Notes:

    1) 25 years ago (in 'normal' times) Congress DID seek approval for a war ✓

    2) Humans, much less sub-humans, tend to 'get it wrong' in predictions of duration or ease of conflicts ✓

    3) Iran was not "easy" to contain, not for #Reagan, not for #Bush, and not for the delusional Toddler #King #TrumpVirus

    Have we learned?

    Haha:

    ➡️ Die Graue Post grüßt aus der Gruft!

    Das erinnert an einen autoritären Rückschritt in die Zeit VOR dem Ausbruch des #Neoliberalismus 1980 unter #Kohl, #Thatcher und #Reagan.

    Damals war es unter Strafe verboten, auch nur das Telefonkabel selber zu verlängern. Telefonkabel gab es zu Monopolpreisen und durfte nur von Post-MA angeschlossen werden.

    Damals wie heute ist das Ausdruck von Liebe zu Renten-Ökonomie UND mehr noch zum bevormundenden Spionage- & Überwachungsstaat.

  8. These are not the #Republicans of my youth - back when this level of bigotry was considered extreme. Did #Reagan's 11th Commandment remove a facade, allowing the #bigots to emerge?

    #racisim #anti-semitism #mysogyny - is that the core of today's #GOP?

  9. #ChuckNorris era un facha de los chungos.

    Norris respaldó numerosas candidaturas del Partido Republicano y expresó su admiración por figuras como Ronald #Reagan. Fue columnista habitual en el sitio web de extrema derecha #WorldNetDaily.​ Además, viajó en varias ocasiones a Israel y demostró su apoyo al primer ministro Benjamín #Netanyahu.

  10. Black Men Who Look White ~

    When Michael Jackson put on a mask, he looked like a totally different person.

    He appears as a middle-aged white man in "Ghosts", a music video.

    imdb.com/title/tt0119194

    He was honored by the US presidents. They are all in the same club.

    It is difficult for a man to move up in the entertainment industry without making a deal with the devil.

  11. OTD in 1987, US President Ronald #Reagan made a national TV address admitting to the #IranContra affair, selling Hawk and TOW missiles to Iran in exchange for hostages, with proceeds funding a civil war in Central America toilet-guru.com/air-force-1.ht

  12. OTD in 1986, US President Ronald #Reagan's administration transferred 500 TOW anti-tank missiles to Iran in exchange for hostages, with proceeds funding a civil war in Central America toilet-guru.com/air-force-1.ht #IranContra

  13. The #Reagan admin engaged in blatant violations of federal #law during the #IranContra scandal, in which it sold weapons to the #Iran regime & used the finances to support anti-communist death squads in #Nicaragua. George H. W. #Bush, the former head of the #CIA, pardoned nearly all of the officials implicated in Iran-Contra—a move that many Americans supported, because they believed that fighting communism justified extreme measures.

  15. 1/ Was für ein Text! Ich habe gerade mal ein bisschen in den Archiven nach Texten über #SintiUndRoma gesucht und dabei das gefunden. Der Text ist aus der CDU-Zeitung #NeueZeit. Die CDU ware eine Blockpartei in der #DDR. Es scheint so zu sein, dass #Sinti und #Roma in der DDR-Presse selten vorkamen. Eigentlich nur wenn es um den Zentralrat der Sinti und Roma der BRD ging. Zum Beispiel in Meldungen über den Besuch von #Kohl und #Reagan auf dem SS-Friedhof in #Bitburg.

    Vom Tod der Sinti und Roma wusste ich seit #EdeUndUnku, von #SanktMartin erst seit unsere Kinder im Prenzlauer Berg in den Kindergarten kamen.

    Jedenfalls ist hier in der Neuen Zeit zum Gedenken an den 50. Jahrestag der #Reichspogromnacht. Sankt Martin die Klammer.

    Es wird sehr klar die Schuld der Umstehenden angesprochen. Es wird klargemacht, dass alle, alle nach der Reichsprogromnacht wussten, wohin ihre jüdischen Nachbar*innen kamen. Wer die Herrenmenschen waren und wer nicht dazugezählt wurde und dann verschwand.

    (Edit: Mit dem Z-Wort findet man mehr in den früheren Jahren. Schon ab 1945)

  18. Play for pay is how #republicans "govern"

    The #gop is utterly 100% corrupt from top to bottom

    It's an #organized #crime #network and has been for generations

    Folks become #republican #politicians to enrich themselves, families and their pals

  20. Lo “scudo spaziale” di Reagan, ufficialmente Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI), lanciato nel 1983, fu molto criticato per una serie di motivi. Oggi Trump lo rilancia con il nome di Golden Dome.

    Durante la Guerra fredda reggeva l’idea della deterrenza nucleare: nessuno attacca perché sa che verrebbe distrutto a sua volta (la famosa distruzione reciproca assicurata).
    Lo scudo spaziale prometteva di rendere “inermi” i missili nucleari nemici.

    Adjectives I'll accept for #Democrats are "gutless" and/or "clueless", but when it comes to the "both sides are the same" nonsense, that belongs in the garbage. 🤦‍♂️

    No Democrat has even APPROACHED the levels of criminality, racism, international belligerence, incompetence, or profiteering we've seen from the #Reagan, #Dubya and now #DictatorDon Administrations.
