In this new video report, MeidasTouch’s blue dot in a red state Tennessee Brando expresses outrage at a recent controversy involving the Tennessee Federation of Republican Women, who included Adolf Hitler in a reading list for children as an example of an "intelligent leader." Brando critiques the group's decision and their subsequent inadequate response, which lacked a formal apology, tying it to Republican gaslighting over Elon Musk’s salute at Trump’s inauguration event, which has been likened to a Nazi salute and celebrated by neo-Nazis.

Brando contrasts the MAGA effort to ban drag queens from reading to children in Tennessee, with the inclusion of Hitler as an example of leadership on a supposedly educational platform, highlighting hypocrisy in their claimed commitment to protecting children.
Brando recounts how the South had to confront its own Civil War history and the bravery it takes to denounce Confederate leaders like Robert E. Lee. He stresses the need for more Republicans to speak out against Nazi sympathizers within their party. We must unequivocally resist any effort to whitewash or downplay Hitler’s atrocities and push back when MAGA Republicans attempt to gaslight Democrats into denying their embrace of Nazi ideology or symbols.
Brando appeals to Trump supporters and conservatives, urging them to explicitly denounce any attempt to portray Hitler in a positive light. He reflects on the emotional toll of confronting these issues, drawing inspiration from his late uncle to continue speaking out against injustice and standing for truth.
