Of course the domestic terrorist charged with planting pipe bombs outside both DNC and RNC headquarters the night before 1/6 is a far-right 2020 truther who believed Trump’s lie about a stolen election.

Republican silence now that he’s exposed as one of theirs tell you all you need to know.
Pipe bomb suspect told FBI he believed 2020 election conspiracy theories
The suspect has been cooperating with the FBI, according to sources, and is expected to make his first court appearance on Friday.

BuzzFeed: The White House posted a pic of Trump by a Christmas tree & his hand looks...interesting.

I don't know what's wrong with Trump, but I'm angry that he's getting the very best of care, while destroying health care for the rest of us.

Even though Trump is trying to bury it, real people feel what’s coming. We’re either already in a recession or staring straight at one.

The boats the regime is claiming are going from Venezuela to the US would need to refuel over 20 times to get to Miami.

Jose Ceballos, mayor of Coldwater, Kansas and self-described “MAGA Republican,” allegedly cast ballots in multiple elections despite not being a U.S. citizen.

MAGA collapse is here & it's an important moment. Before jumping in to say we told you so, read this person's experience. It's a real thing.
Please don't browbeat them.
It doesn't matter.
Allow them an exit strategy.
They're the ones who can lead others out of the cult.

We should welcome MAGA remorse: I should know — it saved me
Many Trump voters have doubts. There will be a gradual, and then sudden, awakening. We must be ready to help

So he's going after Maduro for alleged drug trafficking, but he's pardoning the former Honduran president who was convicted of drug trafficking here for 45 years. We have bypassed the Twilight Zone and are now in the Outer Limits 😏
