"Their actions are Nazism," far-right state Sen. Colton Moore told Trump ally Steve Bannon.

Republican Georgia state Sen. Colton Moore on Tuesday told “War Room” host Steve Bannon that he plans to push the legislature to defund Fulton District Attorney Fani Willis’ prosecution of former President Donald Trump and 18 co-defendants, arguing that Trump’s prosecution threatens to ignite a “civil war.” Moore complained that indicted fellow state Sen. Shawn Still is going to have to spend “a million dollars” to defend himself in the case. “It’s just like Nazi Germany,” Moore claimed. “I mean, they want to call us the Nazis and their actions are Nazism.”

    I honestly disagree with that statement. The sane people left need to know what the insane are planning and capable of. I’d rather be aware that the Nazis are coming for me than just be overrun and silenced.

    There is a proverbial saying in German (I am from Austria - then-export-country of Hitler) which is “Wehret den Anfängen”, which translates to “Ward off the beginnings”. And I fully believe that is what a decent society should do when it comes to Nazis. And the press is needed for that.
