- As a German I will forever be grateful to all who fought for the liberation of Europe. But as a historian I am looking at front pages today and must wonder: What is the point of remembering #VEDay 80 years on, what is the point of our thanks, when we are failing to protect the sacrifices made? 🧵
- Here in America the executive branch is responsible for upholding the constitution, and it is accountable to the co-equal judicial and congressional branches for doing so. Trump and his feckless GOP minions have essentially told all three to fuck off. America is being murdered in broad daylight.
