THE BIGGEST CON AND TRAITOR IN AMERICAN HISTORY—As Trump wages a re-election campaign that he is..losing, his finances are under stress, beset by losses and hundreds of millions of dollars in debt coming due that he personally guaranteed.”-⁦@nytimesnytimes.com/interactive/20…
BIGGEST LOSER: “Hanging over him is a decade-long audit battle with the Internal Revenue Service over the legitimacy of a $72.9 million tax refund that he claimed, and received, after declaring huge losses. An adverse ruling could cost him more than $100 million.”-@nytimes
BIGGEST TRAITOR, BIGGEST LOSER, BIGGEST LIAR.
CHISELER:

“Trump has an established track record of stiffing his lenders. But the tax returns reveal that he has failed to pay back far more money than previously known: a total of $287 million since 2010.”-@nytimes

The Shadow of Things: A Berlin Diary

Journalist Bella Fromm’s Berlin diary from 1930s Germany is a cry from the past to do something NOW to stop fascism

bettedangerous.com/p/the-shadow-o…
“Went to Berchtesgaden yesterday. The SA had a monster parade. The word ‘monster’ is fitting, I think. The brown monster rolled along the road from Reichenhall to Berchtesgaden. The pounding of their boots haunted my mind all night long.

“Will there be anybody who can stop the stamping of their feet all over Germany? When I was small, I loved parades. I hate them now. The feet pound, pound, pound, and under their thunderous, insensitive impact lies my beautiful country.”—Bella Fromm, July 13, 1932

I have never buried my head in a book — literally — but on page 55 of Blood & Banquets I collapsed.

I felt the smooth coolness of the pages, written a century ago — warning words, blinking lights, cutting through denial and propaganda and getting to the cold truth.

It can happen here. It is happening here.

Will we be the people who stop it or will future historians see us as enablers of monsters — those of us who resisted lost in the mists of time.

SONDER KOMMISSION Nr. 3: ‘The Horror On the Rhine’

How the Nazis weaponized racist fake news and why that matters in the upcoming US election
bettedangerous.com/p/sonder-kommi…
As always when I’m reading history books, invariably the authors lead me to other valuable works, historians, and eyewitness archives. In the case of Jason Stanley’s How Fascism Works, each time I return to the slim tome to mine it for more clues on how to frame current events and narratives, I always find more ledes to follow.

It was in this passage from my report on Moral Panic that I found out where to look for the origins of Trump and Vance spreading fake and dehumanizing news about immigrants.

THE DEPUTINIZATION OF AMERICA IS BEGINNING

“Don’t worry. The story will end well. Evil people eventually turn inward and devour each other.”—Dr. Ruth C. May

‘SELBSTMORD’

When Nazis realized it was all over, that they had lost World War II, thousands of Germans committed suicide.

During the final weeks of the war, not only did high-ranking Nazis commit selbstmord, but in 1945, 7,000 suicides were reported in Berlin, alone.

I am thinking of this today because those whose greed outweighed their loyalty to humanity, truth, and decency, are in the spotlight.

‘NUCLEAR PSYCHOSIS’—Russian Style

As the 277-pg ‘Doppelganger’ affidavit proves the Russians know us better than we know ourselves

Doppelganger—derived from the German word that means ‘double walker’—is a biologically unrelated double—an evil twin…

1/ bettedangerous.com/p/nuclear-psyc…
… In fiction and mythology, a doppelganger, also spelled doppelgänger, is often portrayed as a ghostly or paranormal phenomenon and usually seen as a harbinger of bad luck. Other traditions and stories equate a doppelganger with an evil twin….

‘Nuclear Psychosis’ — Russian Style
They used ‘real facts to complement fake facts,’ except fake facts aren’t a thing. Just another weaponized oxymoron tilting reality toward russkiy mir.

What’s the Frequency, Oleg?

My report on today’s RT indictment, the action the US is taking against Russian influence operators, and the larger fight ahead bettedangerous.com/p/whats-the-fr…
“I think a whole lot more ‘American’ social media influencers who take foreign money to mindfuck their fellow citizens should be exposed. Nothing lower than people who sell their country out for cash. Traitors.”—@WesClarkjr

“For over a decade, Tim Pool has been infiltrating progressive movements, inciting hatred, violence, and chaos, acting as a stenographer for foreign powers intent on destroying America. While it’s nice to see his pockets empty with this new indictment, how long until we see accountability for these bad actors who conspired with foreign governments to destroy our country? This is not a one-time thing. This is not ‘Company-1’ was deceived. This is Donald Trump not asking where the briefcases full of money came from when men with strong Russian accents purchased his condos in cash.”—High Fidelity for Bette Dangerous
