"Specialized Units"

 

A little History:

New York Times, August 7, 1936

HITLER SEES PEACE 'BY COMMON SENSE'; Would Supplant League System With New One 'Based on Reason and Justice.'

BERLIN, Aug. 6. -- Chancellor Adolf Hitler believes that a general European war can be averted "by common sense," and he is also convinced that a new peace system "based on reason and justice" must supplant the League of Nations.

 ~~~~~~~~~

Meanwhile in 21st Century USA, a little news:

The Daily Beast, August 25, 2025

Three weeks into his federal takeover in Washington D.C., the president signed new executive orders tasking Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to establish “specialized units” in the National Guard to assist officers in the city, and potentially across the country, to quell civil disturbances and boost public safety “whenever the circumstances necessitate.”

“Freedom. Freedom. He's a dictator," Trump paraphrased those opposed to military occupation. "A lot of people are saying maybe we’d like a dictator,” Trump told reporters.

“I don’t like a dictator. I’m not a dictator. I’m a man with common sense and a very smart person.”

Trump’s executive order also authorizes Attorney General Pam Bondi to unwind metropolitan police orders in D.C. if she believes they are impeding the administration’s crackdown.

In addition, federal agencies will be given more power to surge officers into the capital, potentially adding to the thousands of troops that have already been deployed.

Trump's "Common Sense" = “Specialized Units” = America's Schutzstaffel (SS)


Trump proudly showing off his gift photo from Putin a week after praising him and greeting him with a red carpet, and days before saying, “I don’t like a dictator."

Right.


Just ask Kim Jong Don:


And also today, August 25, 2025:

South Korean President Lee Jae Myung knows how Trump’s fondness for dictators gets easily played in the Oval Office. “I look forward to your meeting with the chairman Kim Jong-un and construction of a Trump Tower in North Korea and playing golf at that place.”

Of course this clever trolling went completely over Trump's ego-swelled "very smart" head.

August 26, 2025 Update:

Indicted and convicted criminal Trump: "The line is that I'm a dictator, but I stop crime. So a lot of people say, 'You know, if that's the case, I'd rather have a dictator.'"

Trump on deploying the National Guard to Chicago: "I have the right to do anything I want to do. I'm the president of the United States."

Art of the Kneel*

 

Breakthrough! Since he honored Putin with a red carpet welcome, lavish dinner, a flyover, and ride in the presidential limousine, Trump tells it like it is.

After slamming "fake news" for their dishonesty and treachery, we have finally learned that it's not Putin's war.



It's up to Ukraine to surrender to to the tyrannical war criminal Joe Biden.

Peace in our time. If only Biden would cease his imperialist aggression and order Putin's military to withdraw from Ukraine. 

So why did Trump have a summit with Putin instead of Joe Biden? Only a stable genius could have worked that out. Trump may not even need to ask for the Nobel Peace Prize any more.

"THE ART OF THE KNEEL"

TRUMP: "You have to agree to a ceasefire or there will be sanctions."

PUTIN: "No ceasefire."

TRUMP: "OK."

PUTIN: "And no sanctions."

TRUMP: "OK."

PUTIN: "We're done. Thanks for the red carpet and photo ops."


UPDATE!!

THE WAR IS ZELENSKYY'S FAULT! HE DOESN'T WANT PEACE! 




NO KNEELING HERE! FAKE NEWS! 
BIDEN'S KNEELING!! OBAMA KNEELED!!

Mein Font

 


Trump's Homeland Security recruitment ad for ICE reads, “Serve your country! Defend your culture!”

Hmm. And what "culture" would that be? 

Would it be a culture of diversity, equal justice under law, inclusion, and asylum for the oppressed? No, I'm quite sure that's not it. 

Or is it a culture of protecting voter rights and civil rights with fair representation in a democratic representative government? Something tells me that's not it either. 

How about a culture of free speech in higher education, free of politicized scientific research and curriculums? 

Or a culture of lawful due process free of personal vendettas by politicized law enforcement? No, I don't think that's it at all.

Could it be a culture of mercy and benevolence for the downtrodden? A culture of provision for the general welfare, universal healthcare, and regulation of commerce?

Let's get real.

It's quite clear the "culture" they want to "defend" is one of radical Right minority rule paired with white "Christian" nationalism. They call it MAGA.

Their culture would look more like this:

“In this world human culture and civilization are inseparably bound up with the existence of the Aryan. His dying off or his decline would again lower upon this earth the dark veils of a time without culture.” Adolf Hitler - "Mein Kampf" 

"The National Government...regards Christianity as the foundation of our national morality, and the family as the basis of national life" Adolf Hitler - "My New Order"- Proclamation to the German Nation, Berlin, February 1, 1933

Since Trumpers seem so fond of a militarized police state where cops can "do whatever the hell they want", it's no surprise their culture is attracted to the same old English style font Hitler used for his book "Mein Kampf".



Mere coincidence, I'm sure, but it does seem to suit their mutual ideological image. 





As the Felonious Fuhrer said, "Hitler did a lot of good things".
