The Nazi rise to power
The ~~Nazis~~ Republicans started advocating clear messages tailored to a broad range of people and their problems. The propaganda aimed to exploit people’s fear of uncertainty and instability. These messages varied from ~~‘Bread and Work’~~ 'Build the Wall', aimed at the working class and the fear of unemployment, to a ~~‘Mother and Child’ poster portraying the Nazi ideals regarding woman~~ Muslim immigration ban. ~~Jews~~ Illegal immigrants and ~~Communists~~ transgender athletes also featured heavily in the ~~Nazi~~ Republican propaganda as enemies of the ~~German~~ American people.
~~Joseph Goebbels~~ Fox News was key to the ~~Nazis~~ Republican use of propaganda to increase their appeal. ~~Goebbels~~ Fox News joined the ~~Nazi~~ Republican Party in ~~1924~~ 1970 and became the ~~Gauleiter for Berlin in 1926~~ number one news cable channel in 2002. ~~Goebbels~~ Fox News used a combination of modern media, such as ~~films~~ Facebook and radio, and traditional campaigning tools such as posters and newspapers to reach as many people as possible. It was through this technique that he began to build an image of ~~Hitler~~ Trump as a strong, stable leader that ~~Germany~~ America needed to become ~~a~~ great ~~power~~ again. | [

What does this self-described "fucking Canadian" want us to do? Nobody asked us if we wanted this Teflon terrorist on the Homeland Security Committee. She fuckin' weaseled her greasy way into this position
by taking advantage of inter- and intra-party division and turning the incoming Speaker into a week-long global laughingstock.
Do Canadians think we weren't mortified at this ham-handed, flagrant, rules-abusing violation of our democracy? We can't just go shoot her, so what do they want us to do? None of us has any real political capital. American freedom is a fucking sham. The overwhelming majority of Americans are the victims of all this bullshit, and fuck anybody who blames us for being crushed under the collapse of our "Republic." | [

And there’s your proof that they don’t actually care about these things. Any committee with MTG or Boebert is a committee the GOP doesn’t give a shit about, but thinks the base cares about. If you actually want to get something done, you assign boring, career politicians who understand legislation and how it is passed. They’ll be boring and bills will go through. If you want to grand stand and rile up the base while doing nothing to help, you assign MTG.
Edit: for further proof look at ways and means. It’s one of the most powerful and important committees in congress and none of the members are house hold names. They are necessarily good or bad, but it’s safe to say their goal is to not constantly be ok on camera with something flashy

I completely agree with everything you just said… but, even if that’s the case, is their plan to also lose the senate and WH in 2024? Bills take time time prepare and more important bills take longer. If they cared about these things they should spend these next 2 years getting all the pieces in place so that when they have real power they can actually pass these bills. This is going to be like the Obamacare replacement that never existed | [

It is exactly like that time period all over again. A bunch of GOP demagogues, who are not in the House to govern responsibly but are there to grandstand and get on FOXNews, will get to spend 2 years promoting their own brand.
The GOP are fractured and we just saw that they cannot even negotiate with each other to create a platform. Without a platform and a strong leader the House is going to be 220 different GOPers running around doing whatever they think is best for them personally. | [

Yeah but like I said, that American brand of right wing ideology is trying to find its way here and it seems to be succeeding. The good thing is (for now) is that we aren't a particularly religious country so at least they don't have that hook.

">\n\nWe should all feel safe from Jewish Space Lasers now.",
">\n\nWell now that she's been read into the program she understands that the Jewish space lasers are needed to fend off the Lizard people.",
">\n\nThe people who supported a violent insurrection against the US get to just keep being politicians. \nEveryone who votes R hates the United States and wants to burn it and start over. Don’t let them forget it.",
">\n\nRepublicans have no ideas. They are the \"do whatever Democrats don't like\" party, and unfortunately for everyone, that includes having someone who cheered for an insurrection that, if successful, would have ended free elections in the United States of America and led to the murders of many members of Congress on the Homeland Security Committee.",
">\n\nIt is so she can sell the info.",
">\n\nI struggle to find things about the GOP that I can even respect. I don't have to agree with something to respect it to some degree or another, but the modern GOP is just clown shoes.",
">\n\nCan she find her home state on an unlabeled map?",
">\n\nShe can’t find her ass with both hands.",
">\n\nA terrorist on the Homeland Security Committee? Sounds about right for Republicans",
">\n\nLet’s put traitors in charge of our defense. What could go wrong?",
">\n\n15 votes has got to buy something!",
">\n\nSorry Americans, but putting a Russian asset on the HSC doesn't seem like the best choice eh? 🤔",
">\n\nHonestly, I think I need to stop following /r/politics at this point. Shit has just become way too depressing and ridiculous. Not being American there is nothing I can do anyway, but I don't want to watch their country slowly burn. The only reason to watch is to be aware of shit that might/is slowly encroaching on my own country (Australia). I'm lost for words about this farce.",
">\n\nI read the first half of your comment and was gonna say \"no, don't give up, that's their entire goal here: to make everybody with a brainstem so disenfranchised that they stop participating in politics and elections\" but then realized that you're not American. By all means, tune it out. I probably would if I were from somewhere else. Unfortunately, I'm cursed to care about US politics until I'm dead, even if I do decide to pull the trigger and move to another country.",
">\n\n\nBy all means, tune it out. I probably would if I were from somewhere else.\n\nYeah but like I said, that American brand of right wing ideology is trying to find its way here and it seems to be succeeding. The good thing is (for now) is that we aren't a particularly religious country so at least they don't have that hook. Part of me feels like it is dangerous to tune it out because learning the playbook is necessary to combat it. It is just so damn depressing to watch",
">\n\nCould Biden just revoke her security clearance so she cannot be put on any commitee that requires one?",
">\n\nSo. The GOP strategy is to be purposefully incompetent then run in 2024 on government is stupid so let's get rid of it?",
">\n\nAnger, sure. However, I find it hard to believe that there's any amount of disbelief that this occured. Between all the deals McCarthy made and the GOP's track record of putting inept people on committees that are counterintuitive to their function, there shouldn't be a single person who didn't believe this would happen.",
">\n\nShe made a deal with McCarthy for her speaker vote. So, why does she want THIS position so badly?",
">\n\nWild speculation: Because the people bank-rolling her want her to have it.",
">\n\nShe was put on the committee for the sole purpose of destroying herself. None of the other Republicans had the balls to deal with her, so this was the simplest option. Give it a few months and a unanimous decision will be made to throw the crazy woman to the kerb.",
">\n\nBefore taking office, Greene had claimed on social media that deadly school shootings were staged, liked posts calling for the execution of Democratic leaders and federal agents, and supported the baseless theory that space lasers owned by a Jewish cabal had caused one of California’s deadliest wildfires.",
">\n\nWhy do I even follow the laws anymore? It's only for us common people I guess."
