I love reading History. I find it more fascinating than most fiction. Although a registered Independent voter, my political and social views lean to a conservative outlook. Both major political parties are, in my opinion, totally bankrupt in ideals and intent. Both pull too far in their respective direction, and all have sold themselves to the highest bidders. A New England Yankee, I have great admiration for the founders of our nation. The early ones, Washington, Adams Jefferson and others put their lives on the line. Add Madison, Franklin and more. We are most fortunate that our Revolution/Rebellion was organized and led by educated, enlightened men (not to forget Abigail and some other uncelebrated women) who thought far into the future, and it took other men like Jackson, Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt and FDR to maintain the hopes & dreams of millions. France's Revolution started well, but was taken over by lesser men, and fell into the Reign of Terror, and the Guillotine. Russia suffered Lenin & Trotsky. We were luckier! I cannot get through the day without reading the Comics. Regular comics first, then the Political 'toons. Unemployed for 35 months, I finally landed a good position with a good company! However, now I have less time to comment, (a relief to some) and less time to read other comments. Just typing out my gripes & diatribes gives me a feeling of being a little less helpless, and I feel better having said it. Sometimes I goof. I do like reading other comments: occasionally I learn something.

    YES. A friend gave it to me for Christmas over a year ago. The Nazi’s didn’t waste any time getting their own people into march-step, and harassment of undesireables in public was common. Just as trump & musk are starting to gear up today.

    Two years ago, I re-read “The Collapse of the Third Republic” by the eminent historian and foreign correspondent William L. Shirer. I was frightened reading many passages about what the French were experiencing between the two great wars, seeing these events unfold every day in our United States. Do not forget who is ultimately behind this, what is happened to our country today, and is still happening. The Billionaire-Investor Class. Ever since Federal Judge Lewis Powell wrote his famous letter (1971) and Ronald Reagan picked up the flag and led the counter-attack against the Fair Deal and New Deal, the working Middle Class has been under attack, and is about to be eliminated. Trump takes the spotlight away from them, and he does their bidding, and is already wreaking his revenge. Much more to come folks!(Why would anyone who is not obscenely wealthy, vote for a mentally-unstable, vengeful liar to head this country? Ignorant, I guess!)

    I have read enough about American and World history to clearly see the parallels happening right before my eyes and ears. “IT CAN’T HAPPEN HERE!” Well, it IS happening here!

    This ’toon seems especially poignant today. Did Charles Schulz draw this in Heaven and send it down?
