This is the Tom Hartman program.

Down in Fort Worth, Texas, I got an email from a fellow.

He says, I'm a 72 year old disabled veteran in Fort Worth, Texas.

My mail ballot was rejected.

I had signed the ballot with my unmiddle initial, but it was rejected because a copy of

my signature for my voter registration does not have my middle initial.

Honest to God, this is what they're doing in Texas.

They can figure out a way to suppress the vote even when you mail it in.

Because you're not there to contest that, you know, it's like your S.O.L.

Another thing that I want to point out to you is that when governments go authoritarian

and start imprisoning and killing people because of their politics and treating people

in the legal system differently because of their politics, when that happens, it always

happens first with people who are considered criminals, where there's a broad consensus

across society that they're not good people.

That's who they go after first.

When Louise and I lived in Germany, we went down and visited Dahaw.

Dahaw was never a death camp, although they did have a crematorium there and tens of

thousands of people died there from overwork, from typhoid fever, from regular epidemics,

from malnutrition.

But the actual march you in to the showers and then spray you as icon gas, that was all

done outside Germany, so that Hitler could claim I didn't do that.

The Poles did that in Auschwitz.
