MEGA EPISODE: Third Reich: Inside 12 Years of Terror I SLICE HISTORY

Adolf Hitler was appointed Reich Chancellor on 30 January, 1933. Once they had seized power in Germany, the Nazis no longer relinquished it until their demise on 8 May, 1945. The Third Reich lasted for 12 years, 3 months and 9 days. It began with great hopes and unprecedented jubilation and ended after a world war in which 50 million people were killed, Germany was destroyed and the European Jews murdered.

To mark the 75th anniversary of the seizure of power by the Nazis, SPIEGEL TV embarks on a unique journey through the bleakest chapter of German history. Michael Kloft traces the story of the Third Reich, painting a picture of Nazi dictatorship behind the propaganda by utilizing what in some cases is previously unpublished footage. In describing the politics, day-to-day life, the war years and the crimes of the Nazi state, he is aided by three famous historians: Sir Ian Kershaw has set worldwide standards with his biography of Hitler, Brigitte Hamann illuminates the background to the fascination with the Fuehrer in her groundbreaking studies and Götz Aly describes the “feel good dictatorship” of the thirties and mercilessly shows how the Germans plundered the rest of Europe in his book “Hitler's Beneficiaries”.

Quit the play with words! Let's get down to brass tacks... Trump is a fascist. Just because he smiles and shows his false teeth, wears instant tan, and dyes his hair blond with peroxide, thus softening his appearance, it doesn't make him any less of a fascist! Those ICE agents are directly comparable with the heinous Gestapo in Nazi Deutschland and/or the Schutzstaffel and Sturmabteilung. Odious, nasty, brutal, cruel people all! — © Mark Alexander

Hitler’s Birthplace in Austria Is Now a Police Station

THE NEW YORK TIMES: The government repurposed the 17th-century building in hopes of preventing the site from becoming an attraction for Nazi sympathizers.

The building where Adolf Hitler was born in Austria more than 137 years ago opened as a police station on Wednesday morning, the country’s interior ministry announced, concluding a yearslong effort to prevent any attempts from making the location an attraction for Nazi sympathizers.

The refurbishing and repurposing of the building has reignited a debate about what to do with sites associated with the Nazis in a country that is still grappling with how to acknowledge its role in the Holocaust.

“You could make the point that now is a watershed moment,” said Stefan Benedik, the deputy director of the House of Austrian History, a museum in Vienna. But, he added, when it comes to grappling with the past, “such processes are never over.”

The 17th-century building where Hitler was born — at Salzburger Vorstadt 15 in the center of the small, medieval town of Braunau am Inn, along the German border — has been undergoing renovations for about three years. Now, the exterior is a crisp white. The windows are new. No remnants of Nazi influence remain.

“The future use of the house by the police should send an unmistakable signal that the role of this building as a memorial to the Nazis been permanently revoked,” Wolfgang Peschorn, the interior minister of Austria, said in a statement. » | Claire Moses | Wednesday, July 22, 2026

Soll Neonazi-Pilger abschrecken: Hitlers Geburtshaus ist jetzt eine Polizeistation

BERLINER ZEITUNG: Nach jahrelangem Streit um die Nutzung hat Österreich das Geburtshaus Adolf Hitlers zur Polizeidienststelle umgebaut. Am Umgang mit dem NS-Erbe gibt es Kritik.

Das Geburtshaus Adolf Hitlers im oberösterreichischen Braunau am Inn ist am Mittwoch offiziell als Polizeidienststelle eröffnet worden. Innenminister Gerhard Karner (ÖVP) übergab das umgebaute Gebäude in der Salzburger Vorstadt seiner neuen Bestimmung. Untergebracht sind dort künftig eine Polizeiinspektion mit rund 45 Beamten sowie das Bezirkspolizeikommando Braunau.

„Es ist ein neues Kapitel. Nun wird dieses Haus zu einem Ort der Demokratie, der Rechtsstaatlichkeit, der Sicherheit. Gleichzeitig verschwindet die Erinnerung nicht“, sagte Karner bei der Eröffnung laut ORF Oberösterreich. Die Republik stelle sich damit dem belasteten Erbe dieses Ortes, erklärte der Minister nach Angaben der Nachrichtenagentur AP. Auch der oberösterreichische ÖVP-Landeshauptmann Thomas Stelzer sprach von einem bewussten Zeichen für den Rechtsstaat. » | Peter Steiniger | Mittwoch, 22. Juli 2026

For the first time, we see Hitler from a different perspective. Through his friends, admirers, and supporters, new light is shed on who he was and how he wielded his power.

“Winifred Wagner was of Welsh descent. Born Winifred Marjorie Williams in Hastings, England, she was the daughter of John Williams, a Welsh journalist and critic from Brecon, and his English-Danish wife.

Orphaned before the age of two, she was adopted at age ten by distant German relatives and moved to Germany. She later married Siegfried Wagner—the son of composer Richard Wagner—and became a prominent figure in the Bayreuth Festival and a devoted personal friend of Adolf Hitler.” [Source: Google AI]

Hitler's invasion of the Soviet Union: Operation Barbarossa (1/2) | DW Documentary

Jun 19, 2026 | On 22 June 1941, the German Wehrmacht launched a war of aggression against the Soviet Union. Under the code name ‘Operation Barbarossa’, the campaign aimed to bring the vast country in the east to its knees. Millions of people died as a result.

At the beginning of the Second World War, the Nazi regime celebrated a series of military successes: boosted by rapid victories in Norway, the Netherlands, Belgium and France, the Wehrmacht prepared a secret manoeuvre in the east, firmly convinced that troops would be back home after a few months. But the period of unimaginable violence unleashed by Hitler would claim millions of lives.

Without declaring war and with more than three million soldiers battle-ready, the Wehrmacht attacked on a broad front between the Baltic Sea and the Black Sea. In the first hours of the meticulously prepared military invasion, the Luftwaffe rained bombs on Soviet bases near the border, catching the Soviets completely off-guard.

The force of the attack was seen as a continuation of the German troops’ successful ‘Blitzkrieg’ campaigns. In his instructions to the Chief of Operations in the Armed Forces High Command, written in March 1941, Hitler had already stated: ‘This upcoming campaign is more than just a battle of arms, it’s also a clash between two worldviews. The Jewish-Bolshevik intelligentsia, as the previous oppressor of the people, must be eliminated.’

Another aim: the economic exploitation of conquered territories. Many of those involved and affected by this tragedy - Germans and Soviets, soldiers and civilians alike - recorded their harrowing experiences in amateur films, letters and diaries. These vivid descriptions of the German war of aggression in the East are a far cry from official war reporting and state propaganda. These accounts, by men and women fighting for survival, document the horror on both sides of the conflict.

Trump Did What Hitler and Mussolini Couldn't Do | Ruth Ben-Ghiat

May 28, 2026 | Deception, Dogma, and Democracy.

In this interview, historian and authoritarianism expert Ruth Ben-Ghiat breaks down the subtle mechanics of modern political control. Moving past historical models of closed-media dictatorships, Ben-Ghiat explains how authoritarian environments form in the open digital age through "short-term coordination," mandatory party dogmas, and the intentional targeting of everyday citizens to induce widespread self-censorship.

She is joined by Pat Morrison to discuss the shifting American perspective on wealth, the emotional mechanics of modern propaganda, and why the ultimate goal of authoritarian rhetoric is to make citizens police themselves.
