JD Vance can't just say that BOTH are REALLY bad - Jones' disgusting texts *and* the violent/racist/anti-Semitic/misogynistic/etc. leaked private messages from Young Republicans. That says it all about JD Vance. bluevirginia.us/2025/10/tues...
Politico: "'I love Hitler': Leaked messages expose Young Republicans' racist chat - Thousands of private messages reveal young GOP leaders joking about gas chambers, slavery and rape" JD Vance says that Jay Jones' text messages were "far worse than anything said in a college group chat"

Have Trump, JD Vance, Mike Johnson, and the entirety of the GOP and right-wing media own and embrace these vile and bigoted Telegram messages written by Young Republicans.

They will because they see apology as "weakness."

Tie it around them.

Money already approved for projects that Trump is using the shutdown to defund comes from less than 3% of Republican districts, compared with Democratic districts.

Even if Proud Boys aren't joining (and here is no confirmation), federal paramilitary forces clearly recruit from the same pool and share overlapping ideological and political goals. As has always been the case, far right gangs and street groups work with law enforcement, not against.

NEW: I took a long look at the Proud Boys and found some of their most extreme chapters are sharing ICE recruiting materials on encrypted apps and even suggesting members have joined up. talkingpointsmemo.com/news/in-the-...
The first Antifa Counter Terrorism Task Force Trump already gave so many of us jobs with ICE. We may have to start recruiting soon to fill all these spots.

Your actions have consequences.

You choose not to vote, you lose your say.

You elect a felon, expect to get robbed.

Not everyone voted for this administration, but everyone must live through it.

A 13-year-old boy in Massachusetts was detained by local police on Thursday. When his mother arrived to pick him up, she learned that her son had instead been taken into ICE custody and later transferred to a juvenile facility in Virginia, more than 500 miles away.

A 15-year-old girl was assaulted while alerting her community about ICE raids. The Department of Homeland Security denies any involvement, ICE misrepresents the footage, and then continuously alters its narrative.

So, China is buying soy beans from Argentina instead of America but we are giving Argentina billions of dollars? Also, Argentinians have free healthcare but Americans do not and our government is now shut down because it doesn’t have enough money to give Americans even a discount on healthcare?

I did not pay taxes to bail out his buddy in Argentina.

This money belongs to the American people. It is not Donald Trump's to give away.

Trump’s apologism for Russia’s invasion comes as Dugan gains popularity among his supporters. The WSJ notes: “As Trump and Putin move their countries closer in the realm of geopolitics, [Alexander] Dugin is trying to do the same on a cultural level.”
Meet the Russian Dubbed ‘Putin’s Brain’ Who Is Courting Trump Supporters

I've been calling out Stephen Miller as the biggest threat the entire time. Others were trying to tell me "no no it's RFK Jr or Bondi or Gabbard or Musk"... Nah. It's always been noted Nazi, disowned by him family, even creeps out MAGA elites miller.

Peter Theil is the only other contender.

Steve Bannon was the chief strategist behind Trump’s campaign in 2016, Peter Theil was JD Vance’s mentor and biggest financial backer, and the less said about Elon Musk, the better

It’s nauseating-if completely unsurprising-to see that these three MAGA leaders were connected to Jeffrey Epstein

The current VP is owned by Peter Theil, a psychotic billionaire who openly plans to collapse the US economy so he can become dictator of a techno feudalist city state.
All high rank members of the Trump regime are insane people who want to destroy the country for power & crackpot ideology.
