I hope the fires of hell burn extra hot today and carry the tormented screams of millions of dead nazis to our ears.

I see Amerikkka likes picking auspicious dates

Not just dates. If I'm not mistaken, this matches down to the hour (anyone able to verify?) A pretty clear dogwhistle if there ever was one.

I wasn't serious, although I expect many of those ghouls enjoy the coincidence. There are other more likely reasons they did it today - the 2 that come to mind being that stock markets are closed and this comes after the 2 weeks BS deadline from Trump. As for the time, I would guess they think it's better to catch the defenders off guard, in both situations

Anyway, this line really doesn't need to be entertained
