Antifa Invaded France

That war was against fascism:

There was a lot of very hard fighting to do and the invasion could have failed. Gen. Eisemhower wrote a short speech to give if the landings failed

But they didn't fail. The Normandy Invasion wasn't a turning point, that happened in the West when the British denied air-superiority to the Germans in 1940 and, in the East, when the Soviets turned back the Germans and their Axis allies. The d-Day landings were, though, one of the nails in the coffins of the fascist regiemes then existing in Europe.

Sadly, fascism isn't dead. Not by a long shot.

Don't Worry, MAGA Insurrectionists, Your Boss's Boss Has Your Back

Putin reiterated that Russia rejects accusations of interfering in U.S. presidential elections, and he spoke critically of the U.S. response to the Capitol attack, which took place as Congress prepared to certify that Biden had defeated then-President Donald Trump in November.

“They weren’t just a crowd of robbers and rioters. Those people had come with political demands,” he said.

Those "political demands," in case you've forgotten, were to overturn the results of the 2020 election as well as to hang both Mike Pence and Nancy Pelosi.

Those "political demands" involved beating cops with bats and poles, forcibly stealing their equipment, breaking ane entering the Capilot and offices therein, smearing excrement, and defiling the halls of Congress with the Flag of Traitors from the 19th century,

It would seem reasonable to presume that if those fun-loving "political protestors" were to skip bail, that they would find a home and a job (presumably as language instructors for the FSB) in Russia.

Apparently, this is the brain-child{1] of Mike Lindell, former drug-addict and pillow hawker[2] and Sidney Powell, Lawyer for Q.[3]

Good luck finding evidence that Republicans, such as Moscow Mitch and Miss Lindsey, have denounced this particular Trumpist fantasy.[4]

The Bureau of Printing and Engraving Is Run By a Bunch of Tired Old Racists

Prove me wrong.

President Biden’s White House basked in praise from allies in its early days when it pledged to look for ways to “speed up” the process of putting abolitionist Harriet Tubman on the front of the $20 bill, replacing President Andrew Jackson, who owned enslaved people and forcibly relocated Native Americans.

But four months after taking office, there is little evidence that the administration has taken any steps to accelerate the schedule set out years ago by a small agency within the Treasury Department.
...
But removing the portrait has proven much easier than accelerating the actions of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, a unit of the Treasury Department, which critics say displays scant interest in transforming the currency.

The intractable bureaucrats are bleating about they'll have to redesign the entire bill. That's bullshit, all they have to do is replace the portrait. They can redesign the damned thing later.

Once you strip out the bullshit, the only reason left standing for them not to replace the portrait is the only one that makes sense: Bigotry, whether it is racism or misogyny. Or both.
