#Justitia omnibus, #Justice For All, the state motto of Washington, D.C. holds true in Germany.
Germany's most infamous #fascist, the state leader of the the fascist #AfD in #Thuringia and quite likely the next prime minister ("Governor") of the Free State of Thuringa, #BjörnHöcke, was held to account by the district court in Halle: 13,000 EUR.
What for, you might ask?...
Another sign of autocratic decay -- when dictators start elevating their bodyguards to senior political positions. Criminal defendant donald did this often ... remember Tony Ornato and Matt calamari.
Hey Tony, who gave the secret service golf carts to the oath keepers and proud boys attacking the Capitol?
One of this city's most haunting #monuments isn't even particular monumental: An unsuspicious window in the middle of #Berlin’s Bebelplatz (former #Opernplatz) - bookshelves in the ground.
Empty bookshelves.
Commemorating the #BookBurning which took place right here #OnThisDay, May 10th in 1933.
One clear sign of how ignorant and immature the college protesters are is how they all don't seem to want to be held accountable for the crimes they committed.
I wish that our U.S. campuses would at least still assign students to read MLK's Letter from a Birmingham jail, and Thoreau's essay on Civil Disobedience.
I think these protesters have failed the guidelines of: collection of the facts to determine whether injustices exist; negotiation; self-purification; and effective direct action.
...however, this does not discredit all of his arguments.
The #Palestinians or their forbears did not commit the #Holocaust atrocities. This was done by the #fascist and communist regimes of Europe. They should have equal right like the Jews.
As long as this great injustice has not been remedied, war-mongers like the #Mullah Regime and the #Netanyahu Regime will always have ample possibilities to rekindle the embers. Al of...
A debate about the differences of #antiZionism & #antiSemitism isn't possible @freieuniversitaet . Some might say that's corrupted by design, but I'd call it a classic conflict of interest.
However, #FUBerlin president prof. Ziegler published today: “This kind of protest is not dialogue oriented. An occupation of university property is not acceptable. We welcome academic debate and dialogue – but not in this form,”
Interestingly, Friedrich Merz, head of the German Christian Democrats, believes that:
'The continental Europeans were not entirely blameless when it came to Brexit... We lost patience with the special role that Britain always played in European politics. We didn’t do enough to help them come to a different referendum result'!
Bittersweet for Remainers, but an indication that their/our own campaigning failings were compounded by complacency(?) in the EU about the referendum.
12-year-old Rimas from Gaza sells homemade "ka'ak" to afford her heart disease medication amid the hard conditions resulting from the Israeli occupation's horrific war on Gaza.

If you identify as a #Libertarian and you think it makes any sense for #trump to speak at your convention, then you are clearly in denial because he is obviously a #fascist#autocrat
#Trump warned that Biden & family could face criminal prosecutions unless the US supreme court awards Trump #immunity in his own criminal trials
Interview with Time magazine, Trump painted a startling picture of his 2nd term including he may let states monitor #pregnant women to enforce #abortion laws.
Eric Cortellessa of Time says Trumps plans are “an imperial presidency that would reshape America and its role in the world”
While #GenocideJoe was being fêted by bootlicking, complicit "journalists", Jill Stein was on the frontline against fascism, being assaulted and arrested by militarized police. Yes, this election is about democracy vs. #authoritarianism, and #fascist#JoeBidenmust be defeated!
US support for abortion rights up four points to 60% since fall of Roe v Wade (www.theguardian.com)
