The Trump Fox News Appointees Administration
is a Jim Jones TYPE of cult.

There has been many in history,

small & large,

religious cults & State sponsored cults

like 1930s Germany etc..

"THEY" always try to survive

& stay in power to protect themselves.

Their ending is never good.

Charlie Kirk was killed by a kid raised in a radical MAGA state by a gun-loving MAGA family that attended a radical Christian church.

When his love life collided with his upbringing, he did what he'd learned growing up, and reacted with violence.

You can't preach violence and expect peace.

Trump: "Charlie Kirk was assassinated by a far left extremist who inscribed the words, 'hey fascist, catch' -- meaning catch the bullet -- onto the bullet shelf itself."

Holy shit…You can’t make this up: a plane is circling Soldier Field before the Bears home opener with a banner that reads—

“HEY ICE, MASKS ARE FOR CUCKS.”

Also the trolling is incredible for those that told us to stop wearing masks during the pandemic.

Perhaps he refers to himself as 'the country'; Uprising. Reversals, incl SCOTUS. Treason. Complicit. Prison. We are losing family, friends, freedoms. It's like the old song 'One Tin Soldier'. We need to turn this around. Universe, please send help.

Russians dropped a glide bomb on elderly people who were waiting in line for their pensions. More than 20 dead.

Please. Don’t look away and don’t be silent. This is all I could ask for

The Epstein Letter Is Real, and It’s Bad

The president’s initial strategy of denying that the document exists leaves him with few options now that it has been made public.

Where are the red Make America Great Again hats out in the fields? You know, the same people who swore immigrants were “taking their jobs.”

Keep snatching hard-working folks who are just trying to support their families and don’t be shocked when this becomes the new norm.

How about D votes to offer E immunity for his confession to manipulation of the machines that changed all the swing states to R. It's reported that some Rs were stunned they even had a chance, with their unpopularity and poor polling. We can undo this. Save E, save us all.

We all believe/heard/guessed that these "agents" are the pardoned J6 crims. So, do we really think that this bill will work? I believe/heard/guess that it will not. Crims get away with everything these days.

Could it be that these "agents" are the pardoned criminals from J6???? I know of someone who purchased a gun from one of the pardoned felons because he was "starting a new job".
