Dammit!! When I saw it said her “partner” I was hoping she was in a same sex marriage just to watch those in the left get very very confused that Italy elected a gay female fascist. Oh well…….

Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings, regarding the series—which has been venerated by Italian fascists for decades—as an almost Biblical text. In her early twenties, Meloni haunted the web as “Khy-ri, the dragon of the Undernet.” Tolkien, she told the New York Times, explains “better than we can what conservatives believe in.” Her take on Mussolini? “Everything he did, he did for Italy.” Meloni’s victory makes her party, Brothers of Italy, the most successful of the new radical-right movements thriving on Europe’s economic struggles and migration crisis. Its predecessor was a neo-fascist party formed by Mussolini supporters after World War II, although Meloni claims that she’s gotten rid of the Brothers of Italy’s outright fascists. Her fixation on the Great Replacement Theory and her vendetta against George Soros are nothing to worry about, I’m sure. Wow sounds like a cool gal. No wonder the loser crew loves her. You better love some Bible law B word. Did you just pretend Lord of the Rings is not one of the most popular stories in the past 100 years? Liberals love LOR also. Also your quote is from the 1990s, when she was teen. Besides that you simply put the worst spin on all of her positions 1 1

Not sure about Hoover, but I believe the Red Cross paid all the relief for the Mississippi River Flood in the late 20s because Coolidge wouldn't pay for any assistance from the federal budget. Too busy to look it up at the moment, but I swear I remember that from a college history class.

Too busy to look it up at the moment, but I swear I remember that from a college history class. I hope either a) you failed your college history class or b) your memory is failing you. https://historynewsnetwork.org/article/17255 Quote On April 22, 1927, President Calvin Coolidge issued a proclamation to the nation. He declared, “The Government is giving such aid as lies within its powers .... But the burden of caring for the homeless rests upon the agency designated by Government charter to provide relief in disaster — the American National Red Cross.”23 He made no mention of emergency appropriations. Rather, Coolidge, as President of the United States and the Red Cross, asked for the public to donate $5 million [$55.9 million in 2005 dollars] to the Red Cross. That's some damn weird socialism there Tibs. And to @716er it's not that Coolidge wouldn't pay for any assistance he couldn't as there was no government agency to do so. Why he worked so closely with the Red Cross to provide assistance. Quote This concentration of a wide array of governmental powers in a single set of hands enabled the federal government to respond rapidly without bureaucratic impediments. If Hoover asked for a federal resource, the Hoover Flood Commission would see that it was provided. Huh...well what do you know. Damn that Hoover. Ok, ok....I'll leave now.
B-Man Posted September 29, 2022 Posted September 29, 2022 SPRING FASCISM PREVIEW: YouTube Says Giorgia Meloni Video Was Removed in Error, Restores It After Inquiry. YouTube removed a video of incoming Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni elaborating on her conservative vision for the country during a 2019 speech. This was a curious decision that attracted widespread scorn from conservative media outlets, given the recent interest in the philosophy of Meloni, who is expected to become the first woman to lead the country. After Reason asked YouTube to explain why it took down the video, the social media site reversed course and restored it. https://reason.com/2022/09/28/giorgia-meloni-youtube-censorship-reinstated-italy/ .
Big Blitz Posted October 1, 2022 Posted October 1, 2022 (edited) Brandon reiterates WITHOUT EVIDENCE the same asinine lib talking points used since Trump won to a democratically elected PM in Italy - that because of this democracy is at risk. Joe Biden Warns that Democracy Is Threatened by Italy’s Election of Giorgia Meloni “You just saw what’s happened in Italy in that election,” he said, referring to Meloni’s election. “You’re seeing what’s happening around the world.” “You’re going to think this is a little out of whack what I’m going to talk about — but, you know, democracy is at stake,” he continued, speaking to governors and Democrat supporters. https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2022/09/30/joe-biden-warns-that-democracy-threatened-italys-election-giorgia-meloni/ You tell us moron. What is exactly happening? Why does she put us all at risk? What's the evil plan she has? Hilarious. The people that locked you up and shut you down for over 18 months - that put a worthless mask on your 2 year olds for 18 months and still to this day - have the audacity to claim (without evidence) that democracy* is at risk. They're a complete joke. *Marxists and Maoists love "democracy" to. We're a Constitutional Republic. And we already know how they feel about the Constitution Edited October 1, 2022 by Big Blitz 2
B-Man Posted October 3, 2022 Posted October 3, 2022 Rise of the "far right?" No DAVID STROM FTA: The rightward shift in electorates in the West is driven by much more fundamental reasons: the internationalist Left seems determined to sacrifice average voters on the alter of some dystopian vision of the future where we all own nothing and eat crickets. When leaders are shutting down farms because they are limiting fertilizer use, they should expect people to object. Somehow they don’t expect the objections, and are repelled when it happens. Uppity peasants! Overall, the results [of polls] indicate that if an increase in support occurred for far-right parties, it happened several years ago. The Sweden Democrats’ first surge happened after the 2014 election, when the party grew from around 10 percent to 20 percent, the same one-fifth share of the vote they received in this year’s election. The far-right Alternative for Germany AfD in Germany grew fast in 2015 and 2016 reaching 14 percent in POLITICO’s polling tracker. In Italy, the Northern League overtook Forza Italia for the first time in early 2015, and peaked in 2019 at 37 percent before starting a downward trend ending on 9 percent in last month’s election. In the Italian election, voters mostly switched between rival right-wing camps. The far-right has moved from the fringes of politics into the mainstream, not only influencing the political center but also entering the arena of power. These parties are not far right–and certainly not far right in the way that parties of the mid-20th century were. If there are fascists in Italy, and I assume there still must be–they are hardly marching at the front of any political parade. “Far-right” is a scare word for anybody to the Left of Biden or Macron, not a precise term describing a genuine ideology. The modern right-wing European parties do have a populist appeal, and that is what the elites are actually scared of. The “rightward” shift is not the result of a surging popularity of authoritarianism; it is actually the opposite. Voters in Western countries are tired of getting bossed around by elites whom they know beyond doubt care nothing for them. The surge in migrants has been disastrous for average people. Crime has skyrocketed. Social cohesion has plummeted. National identity is dissolving–and that is clearly a goal of the people in charge. The ideas of the family, of free thought, and religion are being derided. The identity and quality of life of average folks are under attack by their own leaders. It is no wonder that voters are rebelling. Repeating mantras such as “diversity is our strength” has diminishing value when the “diverse” are rightly seen as responsible for increasing crime and reasonable fears about the future direction of their countries. https://hotair.com/david-strom/2022/10/03/rise-of-the-far-right-no-n500448
B-Man Posted March 25, 2023 Posted March 25, 2023 WHERE DOES GIORGIA MELONI GO FOR HER APOLOGY? In a scathing speech receiving global attention, Italian prime minister Giorgia Meloni tore into one of her colleagues this week for evincing something less than zeal in support of Europe’s efforts to help Ukraine fend off the Russian invasion. . . . Meloni added that her more “irresponsible” colleagues advocate policies that would sacrifice “a sovereign nation” and “a free people” as well as “international law.” Italy’s prime minister doesn’t just talk a good game. This week, Meloni vetoed a deal that would allow the Russian tech giant Yandex to assume control over an Italy-based cloud-services provider. Her government has approved arms transfers to Ukraine including sophisticated air-defense systems, and she has proposed the recognition of Stalin’s Holodomor atrocities as a “genocide.” Meloni has even savaged her predecessor and former boss, Silvio Berlusconi, for blaming the invasion of Ukraine on Volodymyr Zelensky’s refusal to accept the legitimacy of Moscow’s forceful capture of the Donbas. All this must be profoundly confusing for the members of the Western foreign-policy establishment who insisted that Russia was the “big winner” of the election that Meloni’s coalition won. https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/where-does-giorgia-meloni-go-to-get-her-apology/?utm_source=recirc-desktop&utm_medium=homepage&utm_campaign=right-rail&utm_content=corner&utm_term=fourth The usual gang of idiots has been labeling everyone they don’t like as a Putin stooge, mostly, I suspect, to distract from how many of them are Xi stooges . . . . 1
