Yesterday a group of survivors of the Bosnian genocide were apparently required by the President of the German Parliament, Julia Klöckner (CDU), to remove memorial pins they wore because these pins were “political” and therefore violated the Parliament’s clothing regulations.

Map with caption Technate of America, with North America, Greenland, and the northern parts of South America in red.

My wife found a map from The Technocracy, the 1930's group Elon Musk's Nazi-sympathizing grandfather was involved in, that explains Trump's desire to take over Greenland, Canada, and the Panama Canal. Behold the Technate of America.
