"Adolf Hitler and the Nazi regime actively threatened, persecuted, and sought to control the Catholic Church, viewing it as a rival power. While a 1933 Concordat was signed, the Nazis routinely violated it, resulting in clergy imprisonment, suppression of Catholic institutions, and secret plans by Hitler to kidnap Pope Pius XII." - from Google search

If a guy tells you God says war and torture are bad and you respond by angrily trying to destroy him, you aren't the good guy.

Especially if you then immediately post a picture of yourself as God.

Sarah Fitzpatrick reiterates that she stands by ‘every single word’ of her story and says the people she spoke to were ‘frightened’ by the F

Sarah Fitzpatrick, The Atlantic investigative journalist behind last week’s bombshell story about FBI Director Kash Patel, has said she has since been “inundated” with messages from new sources corroborating her reporting.

The profile and also characterized him as deeply paranoid about being fired by President Donald Trump.

Patel has denied the allegations, dismissed the article as a “hit piece,” and, on Monday, launched a $250 million defamation lawsuit against the magazine.

“I can say unequivocally that I never listen to the fake news mafia,” he said at a Department of Justice press conference Tuesday. “And when they get louder, it just means I’m doing my job.”

Speaking to the Radio Atlantic podcast one week after the article, Fitzpatrick was asked about the director’s retaliatory moves and said she was undaunted.

I’d like to remind folks that part of Spanberger’s success is due to the Democratic majorities in Virginia’s state legislature, too. They couldn't pass any bills when the previous governor would just veto them because he was a Republican piece of shit (excuse the redundancy). This is what Democrats can do when voters give them power at both the executive and legislative level! You need to vote for your state representatives and state senators, too!

A real strong showing from an administration bravely leading a nation at war, inspiring stuff. [video]
