@hasani Please boost this toot ⬆️. It links to the @wikipedia page for the ‘#AmericaFirst *Committee*’ formed September 4th, 1940, *during* #WorldWar2 but *before* the #UnitedStates joined the #AlliedForces - including #Canada - who had declared war on #Nazi #Germany almost 2 years earlier.
Both sides of the #CivilWar among #Republicans claim the #AmericaFirst *slogan*; the #Nazis pair it with a shield, the #Talibangelicals feature an eagle. https://www.huffpost.com/entry/new-award-donald-trump-reaction_n_69c4cb1de4b0e447525c3260?origin=home-latest-news-unit

@hasani @wikipedia The hastily conceived and crafted ‘#AmericaFirst Award’ was presented to #Trump while the resignation letter submitted by #JoeKent is going viral among the ‘#Nazi wing’ of the #Republican Party. The award itself is a statue of a Bald Eagle 🦅 in attack mode. It decidedly does *not* include an iconic #AmericanShield shield because that symbol is claimed by the #Nazis. The ‘pro-Armageddon’ wing supports #Israel and the #FelonsCrusade in #Iran. 🦅 🚀
