“It’s time to turn the page on the same old politicians.”
EIGHTY YEARS ago, the Nazis used “The Big Lie” to justify their brutal conquest of various European countries. Hitler and his lieutenants believed that if a lie was big enough and repeated often enough, then many people would accept the lie as truth. Unfortunately, we are now witnessing the …
