even had a Ford factory. General Motors cried when they were told by our government to leave Nazi Germany, I have a vague memory of reading about large numbers of Studebaker trucks in Russia for the Great Patriotic War. I think that those corporate choices were very important in those days.

The laborers were Jewish and political prisoners of the Nazis.

Seems that, despite Ford's diatribes in the US against Jews, he thought they were good enough -- or cheap enough labor -- to work for him.

wars of choice, more nations to invade.

Would auto workers to go on a patriotic strike?

Congressional Dems need to speak up about this, hold a hearing on the purpose of the push for military vehicles.

To all the Americans who just couldn't be bothered to vote in 2024, this is what you've done to our country. We have insanity and crazy drunks running our country along with Epstein Pedo's. Thanks a lot. Now get out and vote Blue in 2024 so we can take back the Senate and House and stop Trump et al from totally fucking up our country.

What he knows about war strategy and true defense would fit three times over in a thimble.

The war pig must go.

Peace ☮️

to WAR! It's got a real nice ring to it, right?

…so he wouldn’t have to put on his makeup in the restroom.

By getting that guy out of the department of Defense!

If they move downward into the 20’s by November, we will start picking up red state senate seats early on election night!

I asked Google AI "When did Hitler put Germany on a war footing?"

The extreme similarities between then and now are impossible to miss.

Stop robbing Americans of healthcare and supplemental nutrition to feed a war machine that kills innocents abroad while making grifters and oligarchs accumulate more wealth.

I heard they're talking up the draft again. Hah! Most American males (even if they raise the age to 45) are overweight and out of shape. There is no surge of volunteers. However the many low income POC and females who have been filling the slots as a career path out of poverty are NOT WELCOME NOW.

They're going hungry.

But that's in the playbook too. Hitler sending/leaving his troops in Russia to starve and freeze to death.

I'm pretty sure a whole lot of people will go on strike if they're forced to build bombs instead of cars.

We had a Department of War that was only fully funded when Congress declared war. Our war footing became fully funded when the Department of War became the Department of defense during peacetime in 1948.
Eisenhower warned us in his farewell speech in 1961when he coined the term "military industrial complex." Defense contractors funnel tax dollars to offshore money laundries to keep the gravy train running. Ladies and gentlemen, we're getting hosed.
