"MAGA is just plain weird. Most supporters are firmly ensconced in the world of white evangelicalism, which is famously alienating to most everyone outside it. That fact is a primary reason why their numbers keep declining despite decades of aggressive proselytizing."

This is a necessary documentary, but disturbing. What is seen here is a piercing of the lie of American justice. An insider view of corruption and tyranny from those who have lived it. Most disturbing, this kind of concentration-brutality is what Republicans want to import to all 50 states.

Zionism is organized crime and these secular greedy bastards would delete our pages and erase anything we ever said if they could get away with it. Their only play is to gaslight everyone while rewriting history and anytime shit goes sour, they'll just scapegoat a bunch of innocent Jewish Americans.

My mom came home from the hospital today for Hospice comfort care. She gets oral morphine every two hours.

The crazy part is that the entire country is running out of morphine. Doctors & nurses here in Ohio are panicking along with me.
