That sounds like something the Democrats would suggest.

I've been to the Holocaust museums in Israel, the children's museum I broke down and cried many times at what I saw and heard.
While in France we visited the largest cemetery of US Servicemen. Very sobering experience. I've visited a few of the WWII cemeteries overseas and each one leaves a very lasting impression on your soul.

I was fortunate to get a chance to go down there and the things I saw down there were mind blowing.. There were numerous documents labeled Iran-Contra which really piqued my interest. There were also some really interesting gifts given to Reagan while president.
Presidents are not allowed to keep gifts given to them as heads of state. If you can somehow get down into the basement, you will see a bit of history you will never forget.

That's why you have crackhead son setup to receive millions in sham job positions around the world and funnel cash to the big guy.

A tough-as-nails generation for sure.

LOL yeh, Great gram was a "healthy" woman and great gramp was a skinny dude. By her looks, I doubt she ever took any crap out of him.

Mine was ~4’ 10” and under 100 lbs…but still not to be fked with

She used to walk to church daily (only a few blocks away) and one day she got mugged…the burglars broke her arm trying, but they did NOT get her purse

Think the fam told her she should have let go, but she was adamant about not giving in to the thugs

Does mentioning your name help with access?

I'm sure there's a Palestinian exhibit there now to display the awful Jewish hatred for Palestinians.





Oh wait, that's right it was the Palestinians that were raping women and killing babies ..... sorry, my bad.

You can try, but don’t blame me if you disappear and find yourself in some Bulgarian black site.

My Mom and Grandmother spent 2 1/2 years in Auschwitz after being hidden by a Polish family for 2 years. No one else made it out alive. What few stories Mom did share were not for the faint of heart.

What's scary is that if you watch documentaries of how the Nazi's came to power, it's frighteningly identical to what's happening now in this country.

I always just shake my head when I hear about ANTIFA (the so called "Anti Fascists"). Someone should really take these clowns to see the camps so they can understand what Fascism really is and how it really works. And that if we were in a true fascist society, they would all be either in prison camps or dead.

Have not been to the Holocaust Museum yet, but the student body of the university in NY I went to was predominantly Jewish…and we saw all the in-depth documentaries. The literal rooms of shoes, hair, gold wedding rings and teeth fillings…to say it was overwhelming would be an understatement. Everyone was sobbing.

For me, under the word ‘evil’ in the dictionary, those pictures would be present.
