When Hitler fell, the purging of that mindset wasn’t de-Hitlerification, it was de-Nazification. When Saddam fell, it wasn’t de-Saddamification, it was de-Baathification. When Trump falls, it will be de-MAGAfication, not de-Trumpification. The entire movement’s hatred and corruption must be purged.

New research from Yale and Johns Hopkins identifies microvascular endotheliopathy (inflammation and damage to small blood vessels) as a primary driver of long COVID brain fog. The study indicates that vascular damage from the initial infection leads to long-term neuroinflammation.

This 80 second clip of Justice Robert Jackson’s opening statement will send shivers down your spine. Commit it to memory like the Gettysberg address. It’s even more important than Lincoln’s speech because we forgot his words the first time. We can’t promise “never again” if we don’t remember.

Four hundred years of colonial misery condensed into six shocking minutes, the Clash’s “Straight To Hell” intuitively connects the cruelty inflicted upon 19th century Congo, 20th century Vietnam and the dispossessed working poor of everywhere.
