On Thursday night, the president of the Heritage Foundation — the MAGA right’s leading think tank — welcomed an open Nazi into his political coalition. You might think I am exaggerating. I assure you I am not. The Nazi in question here, podcaster Nick Fuentes, has described Adolf Hitler as “really fucking cool” and said “perfidious Jews” must “be given the death penalty” after “we take power.” And on Thursday, Heritage Foundation president Kevin Roberts released a video defending this person’s inclusion in polite-right politics: describing Fuentes not as a hate-monger to be banished from the decent right, but as a coalition member whose view of Jews-as-evil-traitors should be politely debated.

    So funny to see White America discovering America is fascist.

    welcomed an open Nazi into his political coalition. You might think I am exaggerating. I assure you I am not.

    So many Americans have exactly zero historical awareness about where many Nazis went after the Third Reich was dissolved. There was Operation Paperclip, but they also went to a country that recently got a $40 bn gift from the Orange Führer.

    blah blah doomed to repeat it
