A note to @RepThomasMassie who swiftly deleted this ill-advised tweet.
The number wasn't tattooed on the wrist. It was tattooed on the outside of the forearm. It helped identify people who died of starvation or disease in the work camps.
So next time you want to compare, say, having to pay for parking, or waiting in line to buy a movie ticket, or getting vaccinated, to the Holocaust, just relocate the tattoo for the photos. For authenticity.
You actually didn't GET a tattoo if you were going straight to the gas chambers, naturally, since you were easily identifiable at that point.
So if you really want to go for extra martyrdom maybe just show a plain forearm. So we get the gist.
Also, while I have not researched the issue, I would be surprised if you had standing to complain about communications ABOUT you.
It seems more likely you'd be arguing about Presidential privilege and confidentiality.
You know, nobody has given me any prestigious conservative fellowships, but I seem to recall my family leaving Germany in rather a hurry for some reason or other.
Like if a guy had a constitutional theory that child molestation was ok and gathered an army of people who killed tons of their fellow citizens, I think we shouldn't celebrate that.
And, for the record, pedophilia and rape was a huge part of slavery. Pointing that out got a man's ass whupped on the floor of Congress.
