Huge thanks to the @pritzkerlibrary for making this position for @AVindman possible. It is essential that philanthropies step up in situations like this. I was very moved by the degree to which the folks there did not hesitate.

@inlieuoffunshow

I learned only yesterday on @inlieuoffunshow that the @nytimes once ran an oped by Hitler: nytimes.com/1941/06/22/arc…

Who knew?

To be precise. It's excerpts from Mein Kampf. Not clear to me why they published it at this stage--more than a decade after its publication.

There does not appear to be an editor's note explaining the editorial purpose. Given the time of publication, June 1941--during a prior of US formal neutrality but backing of UK--I assume it must have been to show how horrible he was. But I am not sure. Does anyone know?

Hold tight, people. Keep your hand on the plow. Don’t panic.

Republicans elected and appointed officials are behaving terribly. It is democratically corrosive. It is very bad. But here is what’s going to happen.
